MOJOPATS....The captain on the Tiatanic said the same thing! It's only a little water we won't sink!  This has nothing to do with being spoiled as you call it, this isnt something thats happened over night, this frame work has been in place for over 5 years and it's not working.  You can pull in older players like Junior as the Pats did at a few positions to fill gaps, but you dont build a team with it. The O-Line of the Pat's has been a problem and not addressed, the one staple the Big Tuna would say you have to have, next your linebackers. This past draft was a perfect time to grab someone but that never came to be, or some type of deal to bring in someone. This has nothing to do with panic, this has to do with getting the best players that you can and put them on the field. The Patriots are showing they have no desire to go after the money players and have shipped out others and left themeselves in a very rough situation. you may call it anyway you see it, but the facts are this, This team looks confused, it has a low moral, and without stars on the defensive side your in trouble. Not to mention the Offensive Play calling has been so easy to read that 2 sub par teams have knocked this team all over the field. We have nothing to panic about, but the Coaches of the New England Patriot's surely do.

In Response to Re: Most Pats fans (not all) need to shut up and relax a little : Deion Branch wanted big money.  We sure miss him, huh?  Asante Samuel wanted big money - didn't his team give up 48 this week?  Willie left for more money, and did nothing.  Lawyer Milloy, how did that work out? So did Vinateri - we replaced him with a cheaper, younger, and better (now) alternative.  The D has been turned over.  They have given up 16.5 pts per game, hardly a disaster.  They have given up less than 300 yds in each game.  This without Mayo! The O has gone on long, but ultimately unproductive drives.  This will get cleaned up as Brady gets on track with his new weapons. I just got done re-watching the game.  The Pats dominated the first half but failed to execute in the redzone.  The passing yards at halftime were 150 to -2.  Had they operated with the normal efficiency, it could have been a blowout. The second half was mired with critical penalties and dropped passes.  The much maligned O-line, under constant blitzes, gave up 0 sacks against the Jets (and 1 against the Bills).   The sky is not falling, we just need some tune ups on the offense.  The team you claim is in steady decline is 30-7 since the start of 2007.  What a disaster!
