Thats basically Spikes, Fletcher, Crowell, Clements, McGee, McGahee, Evans, and Schobel. So whats your point? All except for 2 or 3 names you listed, are not pro-bowlers, former pro-bowlers, all-pros or anything of that sort. So again. What is your point? honestly ... lets just leave it here and discuss this in week 9 when you see that NE's record is 3-5 or 4-4 after they beat Buffalo, NY Jets, Buffalo again, and Minnesota while losing to Denver, Cincinatti, Miami and Indianapolis. For the 2nd straight year, the Patriots received a pancake easy schedule for the last 8 games, including 7 of which that did NOT make the playoffs last year. So you can really only count the first 8 games.
