Anyways, of course the Patriots aren't going to be as good next year... they only lost one game. Seau's gone, Bruschi is gone, but Harrison will be there. You forget that they have a top 10 pick this year and they always have a stellar performance in the free agent market. They may not be as good, but they'll be right there with the Chargers and Jaguars next year.

1 first round pick isn't going to be a substitute for half of their defense possibly leaving next year. You have to remember, Asante Samuel, Randy Moss, and Donte Stallworth is going to be a free agent next year, and the Patriots are almost like the Bears in the sense that they don't pay their top-tier players shit (except Brady). So unless they just all of the sudden shit out a ton of money (which is definitely within the realm of possibility given the people who run the organization), next year is going to be pretty rough.

The Colts are one of the youngest teams in the league brother. It's true that Bob is injury prone, but it's pretty much proven that when he does play the Colts defense is amazing (except the Chargers game
). Harrison isn't done, he's said so himself. It was pretty obvious that he wasn't healthy enough this season and should have been placed on IR, which I was pretty angry that he wasn't, but he'll be ready to go next year. He's been hurt one time in his career, I just can't see this being the end for him.
