There has been one player that the New England Patriots have constantly been able to rely on, James White.

White has been the New England Patriots best player this season. If Tom Brady gets him the ball there is a good chance he gets the first down.

Once again White was a great pass catcher. He had 4 catches for 49 yards and also 6 rushes for 23 yards.

There were numerous times where White came up clutch. He saved the New England Patriots on multiple 3rd downs.

The Patriots will need a great performance from James White in the Super Bowl. The Los Angeles Rams defense is no joke so every offensive weapon needs to be performing at their highest level.

Without James White, I don’t know if the Patriots make it to the Super Bowl. He is one of the most important players on the team this season.
