lol they'll beat you by 24 in the playoffs
it's almost impossible for the patriots to match up with the bengals unless you assume the bengals win a playoff game

Man I can't wait for Tom Brady to fall apart. Maybe then you'll finally stop being so :smug:

no then we get to continually measure every quarterback in the league against the Greatest Quarterback Of All Time, Tom Brady, and find them wanting

It's not even mentioned in coaching because one would assume "DON'T BLOCK YOUR OWN KICK" is a given.

the patriots also struggled on what not to do when returning a punt this week too

You'd be surprised how quickly winning spoils you

I mean, I would be devastated if my team was 9-1 after next week.

I'm sorry the bengals lost to who? Did ESPN get hacked?

There is a contingent in the local media that wants the Pats to lose a game just so that this won't happen. As you might imagine, they are being crucified by the 19-0 TB12 Revenge Tour fans.

Losing a game won't make winning the super bowl any easier, and a fifth super bowl ring is nowhere near as great as a 19-0 suck it goodell ring.

I mean, it's still good and I will not be sad if they go 14-2 and win the super bowl, I just won't be as happy as if they don't lose those games.

I'll say it again. No fanbase deserves the success they have had less than patriot fans.

well, you know, besides lovely teams competing for draft position

Who the heck remaining is going to beat them? None of their remaining games will even be within 25 points.

The Broncos defense is still good and could make it a low-scoring game. Who knows, Brock could also be good.

You will try that on a smart team and you will be caught and have your titles stripped and Brady will be banned from the hall for life. As he deserves.

we DID get caught, yet here we are :smugdog:

going to be mighty sad if the colts don't make the playoffs this year and we don't get to continue the tradition of getting a freebie playoff game where we pound them into the dirt

Nouveau riche though. For anyone over 30 with an acceptable level of breeding, the word "Patriots" immediately conjures images of a trash-caliber franchise and tepid crowds more concerned with the latest Johnny Damon gossip than anything happening on the foot-ball pitch or whatever it's called. The Pats know this is how the real aristocracy views them, which is why they always come across as so grasping and desperate. Maybe in a decade or two they'll find acceptance and lose the insecurity. Who can tell.
