Ok dokey hocky smokey, here we go in the new place. My 2012 predictions for the Pats.....
Ras i Dowling will get hurt early in the year. - I think he can stay healthy
Chandler Jones wil record 13.5 sacks(I'm told he's WAY ahead of schedule in TC). - I think that's a little too much for a rookie
Tom Brady will have a career year, over 5,000+ yards, 42+ TDs, 66.3 Completion% and 3 Rushing TDs. - It's possible, but i think pats will run a bit more. I see potential in Ridley
Brandon Lloyd will have over 12 TDs and 1,112 yards. - Possible, but i think half of those touchdowns go to the tight ends
Wes Welker will lead the league in receptions, again. - possible, but unlikely
Stevan Ridley will become a good back, not AP-esque, but better than we've had for a LONG time. - I could see a 1000+ yard rusher. depends on how the reps are split between him ridley and woodhead
Alfonso Dennard will be the surprise of the year, until he gets hurt real late in the year, but not seriously, just dinged. - Tavon Wilson looks like the better surprise. Dennard may not even make the team
Hightower, Spikes and Mayo will become the best LB trio in the league, with Hightower actually becoming the noticable leader of the Defense late in the year. - I think Mayo will be the leader as long as the three are together, but they have potential to be very good
Devin McCourty will return to borderline Pro Bowl form. - He looks a little shaky in camp, but at least he has better safety help this season
The dissapointment of the year will once again be the safety play, it will be the weak link in the defense with Patrick Chung being the lone bright spot. - Gregory and Wilson look promising. Allen adds depth
The OL will be patched together at times but will hold together. - in scarnecchia i trust
The DL will be a revolving door but will be very good with Vince Wilfork again being the anchor. - the DEs look solid and Love and Fanene are good
Overall I saw 14-2 and winning Super Bowl 47 over the Philly Eagles. - maybe 13-3. Philly wont be in the bowl
Those predictions will probably be revised sometime, hahaha.
