I do agree it has been a good year so far....
No, brady is the heart of this team. Like that fact or not, its true.

LMAO....your wife too? I watch the games in the basement and my family can still hear me all over the house. Although, I was yelling last year as well.

I agree that this team has done more than I thought possible and has been fun to watch. It is a bit frustrating to know that they could easily have had one or two more wins but what can you do. I can't believe that any team wants to play the Pats in the playoffs.

Can anyone name ONE other team in the whole league which can absorb the kind of injuries Pats have had...and STILL be tied for AFC east lead?

Exactly!!!! Excellent Post. People going off on Schemes and coaching are totally offbase. You cant lose this type of talent and go 11-2.

Thumbs up Re: No matter what happens its been a good season

Greetings first to all Pats fans all over the world. As you have noticed, i havent posted all season and i find this post best replying to becoz its just what my feelings are about this season. I must say i was quite dissapointed with a few posts not long ago....all doom and gloom from some,, a few questioning the greatest Coach of all time, a few even just giving up on this team ! Well my friends, this season has made me even more proud of being a fan of The Patriots. A true fan will stick through the pain and joy and not take anything granted, because the W, isnt automatic . Whether we make it or not to the playoffs, this has been one fantastic season. The future looks bright with the young players we have, Mayo surely the Def. Rookie of the year. Just cant wait for 2009 . Remainder of the season is going to go right to the last game, and who would have thought that last Sept, after the Kansas game ?!! I didnt, so thankyou B.B and the players, coaches of The New England Patriots for this season. GO PATS. Abdul

The sad thing is, a play here, a play there, and they'd be 10-3.

Then again, a play here, a play there, and they'd be 6-7.

Same here... night games suck because I wake up the whole house. We were killing people so badly last year though that there wasn't much to scream at. This year the insane loud guy is back in the basement with much volume and vulgarity.

I completely agree. Even if we miss the Playoffs--and the odds are that we will--this has been a fine year. This team has played tough and mean. When other teams might have starting mailing the season in a few weeks ago, these guys have kept playing every minute of every game. The best example was last week in Seattle.

I know there's nothing to compare with a ring, but if we somehow make the Playoffs, I'll put this year right up there with those seasons in thinking about Bill Belichick's accomplishments. He'll never get the credit for it that he deserves, but if Dungy or another media darling had their team in this situation with comparable injuries, the pundits would be talking about him as Coach of the Year.
