As I consider whether this Pats team is really going to do what I think it's going to do -- win the damn Super Bowl -- I wonder whether a team without a bona fide mega star on D is flawed.
1. Am I right? Are there no mega stars?
The only players who could fit that bill in my view are Mayo and Seymour. Mayo fell off a bit after the Jets game last year and needs a full year of dominance to be considered a true mega performer. Seymour has been on the downswing the last few years.
2. Does it matter? Maybe not. The 01 team had Ty Law. The 03 team had Seymour and Law and Harrison. The 04 team had the same guys. McGinest was a pretty big peformer.
3. It seems to me that the 09 Pats have a lot of strong players but no mega starts.
Discuss this Patriots football related issue, please.
