With wilfork out for what looks like the season, do you think the patriots might go to more three man fronts or do you think that they stick with a four man front with they have or do you think they might get someone else

I think they’ll stick with the Double Nose 4-3 base with Kelly and Vellano and then put Kelly-Vellano-Jones as the odd front. It’s not horrible, but certainly a lot different than if Vince was in the middle. I’ve actually been impressed with Vellano’s ability to hold his ground.

The 4-3 is just a better fit overall given the kind of tackles they have left, but they can still put some 3-4 in if it serves the gameplan. I just expect everything to be a little more straight forward now, whereas before BB would put Wilfork wherever he wanted to take away an aspect of the offense.
