Every season, most every NFL team experiences the rapid lifecycle of hope, dismay, disappointment and, once again, hope, from their respective fan base.But Patriots veteran Vince Wilfork isn’t having it this year.New England, once again, appears to be an odds on favorite to make a deep run in the playoffs. But after a 2-2 start, the talk around the team was much different.”Now you look back 11 weeks later, and we’re one of the best teams in the league,” Wilfork said after the game, via CSN New England. “So the same people that were saying we were the most terrible team in the league now are patting us on the back. We don’t have room for them. We don’t have room for bandwagoners, guys that just off the bandwagon when things get tough.”Wilfork’s reaction is understandable. There is little reason to believe that the Patriots’ downfall is coming just yet, especially if Bill Belichick can find a way to rebuild his offensive line and continue to filter in some weapons for Tom Brady.
