In Belichick We Trust

So it's official, Tom Brady is on injured reserve and his season is over. The offense is now in the hands of Matt Cassel. Ever since watching the hit I've been this sad, depressed sack, and it's time to end it. If there's one thing that every Patriots fan should know by now, it's trust in Belichick. The last time the starting quarterback went down, some 6th round unknown came in and led the team to a Superbowl title. Am I saying Matt Cassel will equal or surpass Tom Brady? No(although I wouldn't complain if he did). But the rest of the team is still intact, and the offense especially is loaded, so as long as he doesn't make mistakes and throw costly picks, the season isn't over yet. It's a stroke of luck that the Patriots had the league's easiest schedule this season, because there are going to be a lot of close, hard-fought games. With the seeming decline of the Colts and Chargers, the ascendancy of the Bills and Jets, and the yearly strong opening showing by the Steelers, the AFC is wide open for anyone's taking.
