It seems clear that the tight end centric offense is not going to be as valuable going forward. With Doobson, Boyce, Amendola, and Edelman looking good (when healthy) do you see a dramatic rise in four and give receiver sets coming???

I think the two-TE offense was more a function of playing to their strengths, just like this year’s will be. They’ll never try to force an offense that doesn’t fit the players they have. So I do think we’ll see more 11 personnel than 12 personnel, but it will depend on the opponent. They’ll still have decent size up front, especially when Gronk gets back, if they need to lean on a power running game with two-TEs.

The biggest difference I see is that they won’t be able to go into their blitzkreig no-huddle like they could with four experience weapons like the had they last two seasons. The offense will be a little more conventional, but hopefully a little more explosive downfield as well.
