The Patriots Are Winning

By: William Bishop

The New England Patriots probably have one of the best chances to win the Super Bowl this year than any other year. There three super bowls came when they were not even recognized as one of the best teams in the league. It will be interesting to see if they can really live up to all the hype of winning this season.

Adding good receivers is like Randy Moss, Dante Stallsworth, and Wes Walker made this offense more scary then it already is. They will not have inexperienced wide receivers dropping the ball in the end zone like in the AFC championship. Now if they could only teach their offense of line to block like the Colts offense of line they would be unstoppable. Peyton Manning gets about 10 seconds to make a decision to Tom Brady's three or four seconds. Yet, Tom Brady has three super bowls, two more than Peyton Manning, and just as good statistics.

They also added a great linebacker. This is a huge upgrade considering that they have one of the oldest groups of linebackers in the league. Thomas is a huge add-on and fits right in to the Patriots 3-4, 4-3 defense. Teddy Bruschy never has been the same since his heart surgery but knows how to run the defense well enough to be an impact on the game. For Verlander, he will be able to play the right position unlike last year when they were low on linebackers. Him being able to play his normal position is actually like an upgrade.

Rodney Harrison will also be back in their secondary. I say this with nervousness considering he usually plays until the 16th week and then gets injured for the playoffs. He really does make a difference because he is such a dirty and hard-hitting player. He will make a Quartererback think twice after he hits them. The only problem with their secondary is that Asante Samuel is holding out still. They went out and got a cornerback from the Chicago Bears, so I'm guessing that they are not going to give in to his demands anytime soon.

The Patriots are going to put up a fight all year. The Colts should really watch out for this highflying team that looks to dominate the league. Not only the Colts though, but everyone in the entire league. I predict that they will go twelve and four, easily.
