I needed a new NFL team. The Carolina Panthers let go of Cam Newton, one of my favorite players. Without Cam I see no reason to be a true fan of the Panthers. So I was on the lookout for a new team to route for. I was going to wait and see where Cam would sign to see if I wanted to route for that team.
But I’ve found my team and here’s why I don’t need to wait. But first, let me show you a few teams I considered. I considered the Detroit Lions since my favorite running back (Kerryon Johnson), and my best friend’s favorite running back (De’Andre Swift), are now on the Lions. But that didn’t seem like a good fit. The Tennessee Titans and the Atlanta Falcons were considered since they’re local. But, There wasn’t enough Auburn on their rosters. The Baltimore Ravens were also considered since I’ve been to Baltimore several times. But, that didn’t seem right although I do really like the Ravens. But now, I have my new team.
I’ve decided to be a fan of the New England Patriots. I’m going to list all the reasons why.
A bunch of Auburn athletes
The Patriots have five former Tigers on the team. They include quarterback Jarrett Stidham, cornerback Jonathan Jones, wide receiver Will Hastings, linebacker Brandon King, and defensive end Nick Coe. And if they decide to add Cam Newton, it’ll be six.
They are committed to Jarrett Stidham
Former Auburn QB Jarrett Stidham will start for the Patriots in 2020. The Patriots are committed to him. Which is why I don’t think they’ll sign Cam Newton. But, Stidham has a great arm. The Pats really like him.
A solid defense
I love defense. I play it in football and I love it. The grind of dominating you’re blocker and slam the runner or passer to the turf is electrifying. The Patriots have a top 5 NFL defense. Like they say, defenses win championships. In New England, they really do.
Cool jerseys
I love jerseys whether they’re throwback, modern, or classic. Some jerseys are flat out trash. But the Patriots have great jerseys. The mix of classic and modern is perfected with history. Another thing I like is that they’re using their color rush jerseys as their primary jerseys now. It kinda marks the end of the Brady era and the start of the Stidham era.
