I think it may come as a shock to some but my prediction based upon the pre-season is that the New England Wolfpack are for real.... going to have a tough season. Mind you, I am not saying that we are going to lose more than we win, but when you look at the competition we face and how we are realistically a season or two away from being competitive for a playoff berth then it is the only conclusion that I can see. That said, I think people will come away surprised at how tough and gritty this team is. They will see a team that knows that it has to fight to win and I think we will be able to surprise a few people with a few wins that they did not expect us to have. New England won't be a cake walk on anyone's schedule and I think that the pieces are there to play spoiler to quite a few teams.
