ESPN - Ugly loss aside, Patriots are in the hunt - NFL Nation

No matter how much I hate ESPN....they do make a good point here. IF we dont come from the west coast with two wins.....we are doomed....

Pretty spot on. If they run the table there's no reason they shouldn't make the playoffs. Lose 1 game and then you have to play the variables game.

The Patriots have continued to win despite a series of significant injuries: Tom Brady, Laurence Maroney, LaMont Jordan, Rodney Harrison, Adalius Thomas, Ty Warren ...

Now thats telling. When I read that list I cringe.

The war of attrition is not going our way this year. But there are still opportunities to win some games and finish up respectably.

I just wish we played better today but this game was probably not winnable after the missed scoring chance before halftime.

The fact that we're even IN the position to compete for the playoffs despite that massive list of injuries is a testament to how good of a coach Belichick is and how resiliant the entire team is. Bad loss today but through it all, my boys have made me proud.
