How The Patirots Will Go 19-0 and Win Super Bowl XLIV

During the 2007 season, while the Pats where beating team after team, we all knew this could not continue. Someone was going to beat the mighty New England Patriots, and experts looked for any weaknesses in this seemingly flawless team.

I'm going to address a few things the Pats need to shore up if they hope to go 19-0 and win the super bowl in 2010.

The Running Game

Lawrence Maroney is a solid running back but can't seem to avoid nagging injuries. If he can stay healthy, it would take a lot of pressure off the Pats' pass-first attack. Also, Sammy Morris and the big acquisition of Fred Taylor should really anchor the running game.

The Offensive Line

Get some big offensive linemen to protect Brady—you know what happened when he got injured (bye-bye Super Bowl and playoff hopes).

The Defense

The Patriots defense is not getting any younger. While it is a solid core, this is the only real flaw. If they keep the opponent's points to a minimum—let's say, under 21—as we know the offense can score 50 on any given night, wins will come easily. They need to address their issues at safety and corner. Asante Samuel and Rodney Harrisson were big losses.

Wide Receivers

With Moss's speed and Brady's arm, we have the aerial assault that was deadly for most teams in 2007. Add in joey Galloway and Wes Welker, and we have a historic Pats season ahead.
