I'll go one step further. We beat Atlanta by at least 20 points. Book it. Then Baltimore comes to town with an undefeated record, its the game of the week with Nantz and Simms, and we punch them in the mouth, winning 20-10.

I don't see the Pats beating Baltimore at this point, they look pretty solid on offense and, as usual, on defense.

You are saying there normally weak offense is strong because they played well in 2 games, and their normally strong defense is strong because you are ignoring that they played poorly in their first 2 games?

they lost rex ryan, who is apparently patriots kryptonite

I may be in denial (please don't try to cure me) but I am with you bro. It is a marathon not a sprint. The team gels and gels and learns from these tough games, by the time they play the Jets again they will be 7-1 or 6-2 and Mayo will be back, that game is for the division.

You do mean Belichick's kryptonite. Belichick took one of the best sets of offensive talent in the history of football and made them look like a rookie quarterback with a bunch of inexperienced talented players. Wristbands for everyone! Have the plays on whiteboards! No huddle all game! One formation all game!

Hopefully, Belichick will be back to normal and will re-assess his approach before the next jets game.

I expect them to win both, but this is still a super bowl team even at 2-2.

i know youre being optimistic but i dont think, besides two drives against a team thats theoretically nowhere near the patriots' equal, that theyve shown anything to make anyone think this is a super bowl team

on paper, sure, but games arent played on paper. then again the steelers lost a pretty bad game this week too and havent looked special at all

And Balitmore has allowed an aveage of 29 ppg, despite playing KC.

And Indy has struggled to beat two 0-2 teams who looked otherwordly terrible in their other games.

And SD looked far worse against Oakland than NE did against Buffalo, then lost to Baltimore.

And TN is now 0-2 and allowed 34 points to the same team that NY made look like a high school team.

And GB just allowed 34 points to a Cincy team that Denver held scoreless for 59 minutes.

And NYG were thoroughly dominated by Dallas, only to come up with a couple key plays that gave them a chance late.

And around and around we go.

or 1-3.

The question is when the team starts turning it around. The three games after these two are a good place.

HOWEVER, one game at a time!
