NE has serious commitment issues with these one year deals. Revis is obviously an upgrade over Talib in every way (and Talib was pretty good), but it feels like a lateral move on their part. Anyone know how much cap space they currently have?

NE will extend Wilfork to eliminate some of his cap hit.Clark Kent likes this. -

I don't know if Revis is a great replacement for Talib based on how Talib was used. I preface this by saying I expect the Patriots to revamp the way they play there DB's now, but Talib was basically a shadow for a particular player. One week he'd blanket Jimmy Graham and the next week he's on Wes Welker. Revis probably doesn't have the size to adequately cover TE's like Graham. I fully expect Revis to play great though. I just hope our attack is varied enough to work away from Revis. If need be, running the ball is also an option.

They had around 17, and Mevis takes 12 so on or about 5M....they were saying Wilfork has to restructure or else...Clark Kent likes this. -
If it was Revis AND Talib I'd be more worried. But one great CB doesnt make a super bowl contender. Ask the Jets.

Talib got torched a quarter of the season though. He's not even close to consistent.McLovin likes this. -
With a QB named Sanchez, that is true. But NE has a much better QB.
I really don't understand you guys sometimes. Every year it's, "We are closing the gap in NE." and every year you miss by a mile. NE finally loses a decent player in Talib and finds a way to replace him with Revis. They are now better, but it's brushed aside. It's not like you finished 2nd to them by a game last year. -

Fair enough. NY split with them too, with Geno Smith and a cast of nobodys at WR. And a rookie CB. I guess when you look at it that way, things are looking up ;) -

I think there is always the chance of an upset in division games. Since 2008, the Jets are 5-8 against NE, including a road playoff victory. Buffalo beat you guys 3 out of 4 the last two years. Do you think they are catching up to you? I don't. As long as NE has Brady, they will be the team to beat in the AFC East. Can't wait for the **** to hang 'em up.Ohio Fanatic likes this. -
He is one of the most selfish players ever to play the game. Why do you think Woody Johnson told Idzik to trade him no matter what? He and his team are a royal pain in the ***. Thank God the Bucs were stupid enough to give us a #1 and a #4. There wasn't a chance in hell he was going to continue playing for the Jets. And as long as Woody Johnson owns the team, Revis will never be a Jet again. Bank that.GreysonWinfield likes this. -

Here is a good read about Jets management/ownership not wanting Revis even though Revis (reportedly) had NY as #1 on his list.

When did Brady ever carry this team to a Championship? Matt Cassell came in after not starting a game since high school and put up Brady-like numbers.
The Pats, like most Super Bowl winning teams, won Championships because of their defense.MikeHoncho likes this.
