This spring was a season of transition for the New England Patriots, marked by new faces on both sides of the football. With the acquisitions made on both offense and defense, it seemed that the organization had a clear vision for their future in a post-Tom Brady world, particularly on offense.
On Sunday against the New York Jets, that vision perhaps finally came into focus.
The Patriots impressed on both sides of the football in a 54-13 rout of their AFC East rivals, improving to 3-4 on the young season and keeping the idea of playoffs alive for fans.
That vision that was laid back in the spring? Perhaps a return to the start of the Brady Era, with an offensive attack that ran through the running game and the ball-control passing game. We saw that in action on Sunday, as the Patriots took care of business against the Jets.
