The Pat's defense is also very old, something they should have addressed in the off season but did not.
The late great Hank Stram said that if you have a Cadillac it doesn't matter who is driving, it is still a Cadillac. He was trying to motivate his team after their starting QB went down with a knee injury in week 1 in 1969 (the second string QB broke his leg in week 2). Your probably right, I am being a little to hard on the Patriots. I don't want to continue to beat a dead horse since I'm not going to change what I think and people who think the opposite are not going to change the way they think.

Still, troutman said something was missing from the Patriots aside from Brady. I think that something is glaring, but it is just my personal opinion.
