There is great concern with Rob Gronkowski's injury situation, and do they have enough on the outside in terms of speed? But they do have Tom Brady.

They lost Welker, but added Danny Amendola. I like the signing of Adrian Wilson. And, oh yeah, they have Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.

As long as Tom Brady is slinging it around, they will be a legitimate contender. But it's time to fix that defense and get some deep speed.

Thanks to the Texans slipping, the Patriots can rest for a week. It's Tom Brady time in the playoffs.

That defense better show improvement before the playoffs start or they won't be going very far.

Lesson learned: They can't turn it over against good teams and expect to win. The 49ers game showed them that.

Is there any doubt who is the league's best team right now? Tom Brady and an improving defense are it.

They have a huge game Monday night to stake their claim as the AFC's best. I think they are the best team in the conference.

If the secondary plays better, which I think it will, they will be a hard out in the postseason. They get a chance to end Miami's playoff hopes this week.

Losing Rob Gronkowski takes a big chunk out of their offense. But as long as Tom Brady is throwing passes, they will be fine.
