Depth is the Patriots line’s secret weapon. Stork is a well-regarded prospect. Marcus Cannon is a massive super-sub who played well in place of Vollmer and others last year. Guard Josh Kline played mistake-free and opened some holes in a spot start last year, and rookies Cameron Fleming and Jon Halapio ensure depth-chart competition. Some teams may boast a more talented top five, but none can offer a more prepared and capable top eight.
I’ve covered a lot of fun games, but for some reasons I’ll remember the game New England won to set the record for consecutive NFL wins (19) in 2004, because that story contained my favorite SI line. (The list of good lines is a very short one, believe me.) I’d written previously about Belichick having the biggest football library in the world—which he has since given to the U.S. Naval Academy library. In a quiet moment in the locker room after New England beat Miami to earn the record, I got Belichick about as celebratory as you’ll hear him. And I wrote, “ ‘It’s great to be in the history books,’ said the man who has read them all.”

As the season progressed he was having issues with his front side when he threw to his left. Most people wouldn’t even notice or care, but he’s such a perfectionist, he was missing by 6 inches to a foot instead of being dead on,” House said. “So those are the small things we talk about and obviously provide him with a toolkit — two or three things he can do in skill drills and when he’s throwing to make the adjustment necessary to have him be more efficient with his accuracy.

Patriots – Let Revis Be Revis: Can CB be most impactful free agent defensive pickup of Belichick Era? – WEEI | Christopher Price
Good read from Christopher Price. I’m just going to try and enjoy this year because who knows what happens next year with Revis. It’s exciting but at the same time it’s kind of like a Game of Thrones character, it’s wise not to get too attached to anyone.
I can’t wait for the season to start to watch Big Vince Wilfork and Chandler Jones get after QB’s!
