The Patriots, however, were not good enough to make a deep run into the postseason, as they were beat bad at home in round one by the Baltimore Ravens. This year the Patriots will have a tough challenge at winning the division with the improvements both the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins have made. Here are a look at what the Patriots will send on to the field on both sides of the ball in 2010, plus my prediction on where they finish the year in the division.
The Patriots still have a huge deep threat with Randy Moss, and added veteran Torry Holt to give Brady a solid No.2 target. The team also added veteran tight end Alge Crumpler to help in the blocking packages,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and drafted two rookie tight ends in Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski. The key will be how well second year slot receiver Julian Edelman plays in the place of Welker.

Ryan Miller was supposed to play in the 2006 Winter Olympics. He instead stayed home and served as an alternate due to a broken thumb injury sustained which sidelined him from November 2005 to the day The US Roster was announced. The Team had already had other plans for their goaltenders, but Ryan Miller was still placed on the taxi squad. Ryan Miller was then selected as starting goalie for the US in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver Canada.
Ryan Miller was born on 17th July 1980. He is an American ice hockey goaltender and is currently playing for the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League NHL. He was selected to play for the US hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games ice hockey game in Vancouver Canada in the position of starting goaltender. Ryan Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named most valuable player of the tournament. He would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in the last NHL season. Ryan Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending and is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller. Elsa After the 2006 season, Miller became a restricted free agent and waived his right to arbitration. Mike Liut, Miller agent, continued to negotiate with the Sabres through the summer. On 8th Sept 2006 the Sabres announced that they have resigned Miller to a 3 year contract.
Under head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady, the New England Patriots were able to return atop the AFC East in 2009, despite winning one fewer game than they did in 2008 when they failed to make the postseason.
The Patriots secondary really struggled to come up with large stops against the better passers in the NFL,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that led to them taking Devin McCourty with their first round selection. McCourty figures to play in nickel packages to start, as Leigh Bodden and Jonathan Wilhite return to start at the two corner spots. Brandon Meriweather continues to get better at safety, and free safety Brandon McGowan was solid in his first year with the Pats in 2009.
The offensive line remains intact and should be solid again in 2010. They are set on the left side with tackle Matt Light and guard Logan Mankins, as Mankins has really developed into a very good guard in the NFL. This unit has to stay healthy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as they are the key to keeping Brady healthy and throwing the football.
The Patriots have two very solid members at linebacker in outside backer Tully Banta-Cain,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who led the team with 10 sacks in 2009,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and inside linebacker Jerod Mayo. Gary Guyton returns to play alongside Mayo in the middle, while newcomer Pierre Woods appears to have the edge at the other outside spot, but should get plenty of competition from Rob Ninkovich and rookie Jermaine Cunningham. The Patriots also landed inside linebacker Brandon Spikes in the second round of the draft.
Defense: This unit missed the veteran leadership that was lost last offseason, but ended up putting together a pretty respectable season. The Patriots were able to bring back nose tackle Vince Wilfork,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and that was huge for this team, as Wilfork are the key to the Pats 3-4 scheme. The Pats brought in free agent Gerard Warren to play opposite of Ty Warren at defensive end.
Prediction – 1st AFC East: We feel like this are still the team to beat in the East, and We look for a monster season from Tom Brady and the Patriots offense this season despite the loss of Welker.
The Patriots did nothing this offseason to improve a running game that did little to nothing last year. Laurence Maroney will likely be the feature back for the Patriots, but they has never lived up to the expectations everyone had when they came out of college. The Patriots use a number of backs over the course of a seasons, but are really hoping they can get more out of veteran Fred Taylor.
Offense: The Patriots appear content at letting Tom Brady air it out nearly every snap of the game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and while Brady has excelled,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they will have a large challenge ahead of him without Wes Welker for the majority of the season, as Welker hauled in a team high 123 catches for 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],348 yards.
