After a 1-2 start, the New England Patriots appeared to right themselves with an impressive and one-sided 38-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins in NFL Week 4.
If they have truly returned to form, they should be able to pick up where they left off Thursday night against Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts.
While Tom Brady is the centerpiece of this franchise, a certain Hall of Famer and the creator of many brilliant moments, it does not start with his performance. The Patriots are no different from any football team at any level. They need a winning performance from their offensive line to move the ball, and their defensive line must control the line of scrimmage.
