I'm usually right there on the Homer band-wagon chugging my kool-aid, but I can't get too giddy about Cassell winning a super bowl. I do think he'll figure out how to manage the offense fairly effectively and the defense coming together will happen. I'm optimistically hoping for 10 wins and the AFC East, but there is some very tough competition out there that has become much more formidable without the best QB in the league counting the snap. I hope you guys are right, but if BRady really is done for the year, then my expectations are solely on beating the teams I hate(SD, Indy, Broncos, Jets) and not allowing the Jets to make the playoffs. Anything else is gravy.

you, my friend, are completely delusional. Pats are going to be in a dog fight in this division with the Bills and Jets. Hoepfully they make the playoffs and Brady makes a miraculous comeback for the playoffs. Its the only way they will win the SB this year. Not jumping off the bandwagon, just realistic. There is a HUGE drop off from Brady to Cassel. About 4 losses worth.

4 losses? So that makes us 12-4. We will still win the division by 4 games and have a first round bye.

4 losses more than Brady. I think 10-6 is more realistic.

Nah, WW for sure.

And for the negative Nancys out there. There are still a few good players that did not get injured. We'll be picking up a QB in the next day or so (probably Simms), and life will march on. We still have a pretty easy schedule, and we are still better then the Bills, Jets and Fins (even without Brady).

No obviously got hurt, but the year ain't over.

Still, I wish you were right though hoodie.
