FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Is the 2017 New England Patriots roster assembled by Bill Belichick & Co. more talented than the ’07 team that posted a 16-0 record in the regular season?
It was a question asked by host Wendi Nix on ESPN’s NFL Live program on Monday, as part of the energetic “Overreaction Monday” feature.
ESPN analyst Tedy Bruschi, a linebacker on that ’07 team, didn’t hesitate.
“Overreaction! Are you kidding me?” Bruschi said on the show. “That 2007 team, I’ll go straight to the defensive line, having [Vince] Wilfork, [Ty] Warren and [Richard] Seymour in front of me -- three first-round picks.
