2001 - Start off 2-3, finish 11-5 and win the SuperBowl
2002 - Start off 3-2, finish 9-7 and miss the playoffs
2003 - Start off 3-2, finish 14-2 and win the SuperBowl
2004 - Start off 5-0, finish 14-2 and win the SuperBowl
2005 - Start off 3-2, finish 10-6 and lose to Denver in the 2nd round of the playoffs
2006 - Start off 4-1, finish 12-4 and lose to Indy in the AFCCG
2007 - Start off 5-0, finish 16-0 and lose to the NYG in the SuperBowl.
2008 - Start off 3-2 after losing Brady, finish 11-5 and miss the playoffs
2009 - Start off 3-2, finish ???
Every season writes it's own story, but as you can see the Pats have started the season at 3-2 more times than not. My point being that it's way too early to be panicking. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned, but I think I've felt that way every season. Just enjoy the ride while Brady and Belichick are here regardless of the loss today. I still feel this team will go 12-4 and be clicking just in time for January.

more frustrated than concerned. I think that's the case with a lot of people here. I still fully believe that this is a playoff team that will go on a deep run. if you want to see a team in trouble watch some raider "highlights"...

What can we say:
1. We didn't separate ourselves from the Jets & Broncos when we had the opportunities, and they both came back to bite us in the arse.
Jets pressured the daylights out of Brady and kept him off balance all day.
The Broncos just had better coverage, and were able to keep brady from finishing drives off.
2007 spoiled us, and made us think TfB was forever going to be a 40 td/4000 yd bomber.

No, really, Kool-Aid is much needed by a number of fans here at the moment.
I have no problem drinking the Kool-Aid my friend. It tastes a lot better than the "loser juice" of years past and a lot healthier than getting all fnckin cranky and bent out of shape because the Pats lost to Denver in Denver.
Where they lose 99.9% of the time.

Heres some more perspective, what happened today in Denver is typical.
I can only remember winning in Denver a couple of times in the last thirty plus years. And a lot of the games were like this one, or worse like Mosie Totupo fumbling the ball at the goal line with about a minute left. Denver took the ball down the field to win the game.
Just think about it, in the Tom Brady era we have only won ther once and that was on a fluke play that involved taking a saftey.

Exactly. It's one of the reasons why I hate the Broncos so much.

07 definitely spoiled us and fans expect perfection week in and week out, and Brady to throw for 300 and 4 TDs a week. We need to take a step back and realize it just doesnt happen
I think that we've only won 2 of the last 19 in Denver. In any case, we may need to overcome this curse if we are to going to win the Super Bowl this year.
