New England takes the field on Sunday looking to put an erratic preseason behind them in action against the Tennessee Titans, who won nine games in 2011 and could very well be even more successful in 2012.
The Titans managed to win three games against playoff teams last year – Baltimore, Denver, and Houston – and an upset over New England would significantly strengthen their chances of making a playoff run considering a relatively light schedule which includes games against Minnesota, Indianapolis (twice), Miami, and Jacksonville (twice.) Their team matches up surprisingly well with New England’s: their offense is loaded with dynamic players at skill positions, they have perhaps the best pair of offensive tackles in the league, and their secondary is well-equipped to deal with New England’s passing attack.
Read on in order to discover ten key storylines for New England’s season opener.

Patriots defensive tackle Kyle Love has come a long way since signing as an undrafted free agent out of Mississippi State in 2010.
After signing a one-year extension through 2013 worth just over $3 million, what can we expect out of Vince Wilfork’s counterpart?

It’s not a stretch to say that throughout the first week of camp, the Patriots defensive line and edge rushers, have looked liked the best positional groupings so far.
The Patriots went out this off-season and added some youth, athleticism and versatility to the positions and so far it looks like its paying dividends. With the defensive front looking strong and extremely deep, what does that mean for Andre Carter? Have we seen the last of Carter in a Patriots uniform?
Patriots Training Camp Preview: Defensive Line

Despite being an undrafted free agent, Kyle Love has turned into a key player on the Patriots defensive line.
NEPD Editor: Mike Loyko
Throughout Bill Belichick’s tenure as Head Coach in New England the Patriots have boasted one of the best defensive lines in the league. However, over the past few seasons that defensive line has been in a state of transition both personnel wise and schematically.
This off-season the team made a concerted effort to add youthful talent to the line through the draft. It was also a priority to sign cost effective free agents who could be integrated into the Patriots defensive front for the foreseeable future. These personnel moves resulted in creating an abundance of talent both young and old at defensive tackle and end positions.
How is the defensive line depth chart shaping up for the regular season?
Big East: Ten Year NFL Draft Case Study
Friday, July 13th, 2012
Miami made the Big East a draft day powerhouse with players like Vince Wilfork.
NEPD Editor: Doug Kyed
Every Friday this summer I’m doing a case study on the last ten years draft history of every conference in the FBS.
Through these case studies we’ll be able to answer which schools and conferences produce the most talent, the most busts, the most players at each position and much more.
I know that it’s a lot of information to digest, but there’s some very interesting findings during this first week of research which will become even more telling as each week progresses.
This week, I’m taking on the Big East. You can also read about the Independents, C-USA, Big Ten, ACC and MAC.
