They are GOING to win. They made a bunch of stellar moves to upgrade a team that was only #2 in the toughest conference in the NFL. If they don't reach the Super Bowl, this year will be a disappointment.
Now there has been a lot of speculation surrounding Randy Moss, but I believe he is genuinely able to change the New England Patriots fortune. He has taken a multi million dollars pay cut and is able to run a 4.29 which at his age shows his speed. He should be Brady's "go to guy" next year.
