Tom Brady's departure is overshadowing a glaring Patriots' problem on offense

The New England Patriots’ quarterback situation is probably the most interesting one in the NFL. Tom Brady left for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and left behind an impossible-to-fill vacancy. And Bill Belichick has elected to make quiet and small efforts to fill that hole.

But, reminder: Belichick doesn’t have talent at tight end.
