Someone on this board(CRedskinsRule?)asked if this was the year NE faltered. It's starting to look that way. No good receivers are a lock to play this season except for Amendola, and Danny Woodhead's gone. If their defense isn't better than last season, I can't see them finishing above 9-7.

The Pats Super Bowl wins weren't about WRs.

Great CHFF article:

The reality is this folks: New England’s fortunes have NOTHING to do with who plays slot receiver in 2013 or beyond. New England’s fortunes have EVERYTHING to do with finding a shutdown corner and pass rusher – two championship building blocks that the team has miserably failed to find for nearly a decade now.
