How Brandon LaFell Went from Afterthought Signing to Super Bowl X-Factor | Bleacher Report

Good stuff from Frenz on LaFell. As I mentioned in my look back at the Pats-Seahawks game of 2012, LaFell is so much better for this match up than Brandon Lloyd and his “flying through the air like he was shot out of a cannon” catches.

LaFell has been a revelation this year, but not in the speed burner deep threat that a lot of people hoped for. No, he’s more of the perfect Belichick receiver who is more than willing to block downfield. Belichick went out of his way over and over this year to point out how much he likes LaFell’s style.

So I don’t really get it when people are putting wide receiver at the top of the needs list for this offseason. LaFell is here to stay and makes a perfect combo with Edelman.

This isn’t like playing the Ravens or Jets. Brady will know exactly who the defense is covering by the way the Seahawks line up with few exceptions. By overloading specific sides, like the offensive left, and designing combination routes for those coverages, the Pats can manufacture ways to get open and move the ball.

The Patriots are the ultimate game-plan team, while too many other great offenses stubbornly fail to respect the Seahawks’ strengths. It’s up to Brady to be methodical in his approach.

Bill Belichick’s opening statement on underinflated footballs – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN Boston

BB crushed it this morning and I’m glad he met this head on and with the perfect tone. So now we wait for Tom’s *surely prepared* comments later today. For those who think BB threw his QB under the bus, you don’t understand how prepared they always are.

I don’t know how anyone could listen this and realistically think Belichick will be suspended or fired. They’ll get fine something in the $50,000 range and then that will be it.

So, if the net effect of this who charade is a fine but with the Patriots getting thrown into the fire, the net effect should be a team that is pissed off and ready to rub the media’s face in it by winning the Super Bowl.

For that I’m almost thankful.
