Patriots.com News Blitz - 08/19/2009

In today’s blitz, learn which Patriots player is dealing with harsh criticism for the upcoming season.

Entering his fourth season with the Patriots, RBLaurence Maroneyhas heard it all. Critics have questioned his physical toughness and vision as major flaws in his game. However, according to a *Boston Globe *story, Maroney is trying to silence his skeptics by utilizing his youth and with help from veteran RB Fred Taylor. "I'm still young. I still got time," said Maroney. "Learning from Fred is definitely a great thing. I’m just out here to do a job and that’s play football, so whether I start or don’t start, I’m going to be happy as long as I have a chance to go out there and have fun.”

Maroney will try to play in all 16 regular season games this year, a feat he has yet to accomplish. Read additional comments from Maroney here and see what Head Coach Bill Belichick said about the young back.
