Tom Brady and the Patriots Tested Early?

Between the Eagles, Redskins and Giants. The Patriots should be tested even in the post season. But over all it looks like the New England Patriots and Tom Brady have a pretty easy schedule - not that there is such thing in the NFL. Here is the pre-season schedule:

Thu 8/13/2009	7:30 PM	@	Eagles	WBZ
Thu 8/20/2009	7:30 PM	vs	Bengals	WBZ
Fri 8/28/2009	8:00 PM	@	Redskins	CBS
Thu 9/3/2009	7:30 PM	vs	Giants

But looking things over below I don't think think things look too bad. But once again, I am not familiar with all of the Patriots Defensive aquisitions. And there defense is going to be the deciding factor when it's all said and done. Not because they will be out coached, because they wont, but because they could just be out - manned. This is my concern. Here is the regular season schedule:
