Tom Brady didn’t have much to hold his head high about in the second half of the season. It wasn’t just the fact that the New England Patriots fell on their home turf to the rival Baltimore Ravens, but the manner in which they fell apart in the second half that had many fans
Patriot’s Offense Will Survive Without Gronk
There is no doubt Rob Gronkowski’s broken forearm, which will keep him out four to six weeks, will hurt the Patriot’s offense, but the team will continue to produce without him. They have too many weapons not too. Yes, Gronk is a major part of the offense, but other players will step up and produce.
London Victory Should Provide Second-Half Momentum
Stevan Ridley has been a pleasant surprise for Pats fans this season, as he is on pace to eclipse 1,400 yards by season’s end. For those of you who honestly believed that the Patriots would slaughter the St. Louis Rams this past Sunday, you have more faith than I in the hometown team. Sure,
Pats Hold On Against Broncos

Poor Practices, Distractions Plaguing Pats

This has been a consistent approach for the team since
Trouble in New England?
; ; ; After the first two games of the Patriots season, they are sitting a 1-1, certainly a disappointment but nothing to get concerned about yet. What does seem to be troubling though, is WR Wes Welker’s diminished role early on this season. He is currently sitting behind Brandon Llyod and Julian Edelman on
Gaffney to Rejoin Pats
Tom Brady certainly enjoyed having Gaffney around in his three seasons with the Pats, even managing to target the wideout with future hall-of-famers Randy Moss and Wes Welker running routes.

Pats Add Youth, Lose Veterans
Free agent wideouts Brandon Lloyd, Anthony Gonzalez, and former-Patriot Donte Stallworth all signed on to play with the 2012 squad. All three should further complement the versatility of an already creative, effective offensive passing game led by future Hall-of-Famer Tom Brady.
