Not since 2005 has there been so much uncertainty heading into a season in Bill Belichick’s tenure in New England. Before the 2005 season, not only did both coordinators leave, but two of their best defensive players also left. Tedy Bruschi has a stroke that could’ve ended his career, he, of course, came back mid season, but Ty Law left and did not come back. There were tons of questions about the team, and they ended up finishing 10-6, losing to Denver in the Divisional Round (granted they were screwed by one of the worst calls in NFL history).
