Might the Patriots make a trade before today's deadline?

It's obvious that the Pats, after a long and bountiful diet of success, have lost their hunger. Without Brady to set the standard, the veterans seem incapable of rising to the level of intensity needed to win consistently in the NFL. And who can blame them? After all these years on top, they are emotionally spent. It is time for a makeover while Brady still has 5-7 productive years left. Let's declare 2009 a rebuilding year and focus on developing the next generation of players, mistakes and all.

Mike,
I'm all for petitioning the Pats to go back to the old uni. What do we need to do to make this happen?
