Default You have to admit that it's going to be fun

Yeah it sucks that we are not going 16-0, 15-1, 14-2, or even 13-3, but at least no matter what the games are going to mean something. It's going be fun to have the us vs. the world attitude once again.

Next week will be a lot of fun. The Jets are already marking it down as a W. I think we'll win on hatred and adrenaline alone.

After that, who knows. It's week to week now.

This is what I've been saying. There's so many bandwagon/spoiled baby Pats fans, this will either thin the ranks or make them appreciate the team more. Now maybe we won't piss and moan after "only" winning by 14. Maybe now people will appreciate every win. Who knows, maybe Maroney will become a running monster, maybe Moss will become a team leader, maybe the D will step up and be smothering. It sucks Brady's out, yes, but maybe this will instill more appreciation into a decadent fanbase.

The Jets are extremely overrated. They barely squeaked by a Miami Team that almost went win-less last year.

The Pats play the weakest schedule in the NFL. They will be fine, even with a back up quarterback.

It PROBABLY will be fun. If the team rallies around this, plays good defense, runs hard, etc, then it will fun and should be between a 7 and 10 win team. There's a small chance the team will quit without Brady and that will suck - I don't see that happening but it's not impossible.

I agree and each game will have so much anticipation

This could also heighten the bandwagon base, if Cassel does well and we continue to win like I think we will, everyone will be a Cassel fanatic

"You have to admit that it's going to be fun."
I admit. I admit. I admit.

It's the kind of fun I prayed against having, but now that it's here, let's party like it's 1999!

P.s., when we Catholics fall, we fall hard.

Well it will be nice not having to win by 40 points every week or else risk people questioning if the team is slumping.

This is not fun for me.. If the Pats were just a good team, maybe I could see it as fun.. but not now.. This is a year of my life I'll never get back
