More balanced only because they will now have to be forced to commit to running the football. Cassell is a capable backup, but NE at times abandoned the run many times for long stretches of games because of Brady's uncanny ability and brains, and of course having Moss running deep routes forced opposing defenses to roll a safety over the top and to Moss's side of the field at all times...rightfully so... This left things open underneath for Wes Welker....Now things are different.
