Four starters on the offensive team and three on defense, not bad. Though I’m sure there will be some Pats fans who don’t think McCourty should be on there.

Mark Mangino ‘very fond’ of Aqib Talib – BostonHerald.com
A rare positive perspective on Aqib Talib, nice read…

I have my utmost confidence in him that he is going to do some fantastic things in New England, and it’s going to be a good marriage.”
