Patriots' passing game: great or not?

He will have a bad attitude and will complain about not getting the ball enough which will create negative team chemistry. I thought the Pats had a perfect WR corps for Brady before Moss was brought in.

With Moss only playing full speed every few plays he is close to breaking allot of NFL records.

He's a future HOFer.

But my question is did they overdo it? Do they have too much talent? All their WR's are at least quality 3rd spot WR's, 2 are 1 spot quality, 2-3 are 2 spot quality, and 1-2 iare 3 spot quality. How will everyone be happy? How will the ball be shared? This did not work well for the Skins or for the Seahawks last year when both of us loaded up on WRs. I know Bellicheck is a genius, but I dont know how this offense system will work out.

NE likes to spread the field w/ 3 and 4 wr's so I doubt they will be going to a west coast offense. I would think it would be more of a run and shoot offense.

the best thing about the patriots is they only care about one thing, winning

[memphisskin]

Let's see, they barely lost a shoot out in the AFC Championship game with the Colts with Reche Caldwell, Jabar Gaffney, and Chad Jackson at wideout. Brady spreads the ball around better than anyone.

And we are talking about Randy Moss right? He's only 30, he still runs a freaking 4.29, and there is only one corner who I'd trust to cover him one-on-one (that'd be the Champ). I doubt he quits on a play now, especially with a qb who scans the entire field. But that's a very minor concern, especially when you consider he's good for about 1200 yds and 15+ tds next year (barring injury).

For as much as I hate to say it, cause I HATE the Pats, they set their passing game up GREATLY!
1- Moss
2- Stallworth
3- Washington
4- Welker
That might be the best WR corp in the NFL. Having an accurate guy like Brady throwing them the ball is scary. However, having 2 head cases (Moss and Stallworth) this could implode on them.

Trust me guys, Moss still has it. Especially if he thinks he's going to get a ring. How can you get motivated when you have a guarenteed contract and a team that is lucky to win 2 games???? Moss is a GREAT pickup.

Probably not going to happen, but I hope that their offense struggles much like ours did after alot of new aqquisitions.

The Skins will need every single DB they have when they head to NE this season. Good thing they drafted Landry . . .

Can't talk shit about Pats... World class team with the best coach in football right now. I was secretely hoping we'd see Randy and Santanna together, but I'm guessing Randy ain't Gibbs material. 4th rounder for Randy Moss= STEAL!

Oh man, yeah, Randy is great for the Pats, he would be poison for the Skins, keep him far away. That being said, he'll get a look on my Fantasy team this year.

They were great last year, when their best receiver was the dude who dropped numerous TO balls in the AFC championship.

The difference is NE has Tom Brady in his prime and we had an Mark Brunell. BIG DIFFERENCE. Just look at Brady's numbers w/ a bunch of cast offs last year. I don't think there is a QB in the NFL that see's the field and spreds the ball around like Brady.

Remember they still have Chad Jackson and Mr. Reliable Troy Brown too. I think Kelly Washington will probably get cut.

Troy Brown is no longer with the Patriots. I guess he's not so reliable. haha. As of March 2nd, he was a free agent.

Washington has more talent than Jackson, therefore will make the club over him if they choose to cut one. Washington is a great WR but hasn't had the opportunity yet. The Patriots have a gem there.
