Perhaps it doesn’t really matter who plays quarterback for this team.  Or tight end, left tackle, etc.  The Patriots essentially rolled a bunch of backups in to University of Phoenix Stadium and came away with a road win against a team that finished last season 13-3.  Add Solder, Gronk and Brady to the mix, and clearly you have one of the best teams in the NFL—as always.
