If they were both tied at 10-6 the conference tie-breaker employed. The crystal ball is getty fuzzy as we see the Steelers playing at Gillette on Wild Card weekend.

That is the least of our worries. Unless we extend some defensive players NOW, by 2016 we will have none under contract. NONE.

How do you win without anyone playing defense? Playoffs? Playoffs? Forget the playoffs. I'd be happy just to win a game!

Every game is a make or break game until it's over.

It will be a battle of undefeated teams in which the Pats will win

in OT, even tho we lose the coin toss at the end of the game. especially memorable for tom brady's five TD passes after everyone had written him off as washed up after a bad 2014 season...

Pretty sure Brady won't be our QB in 2015.

Why does everyone think we're going to lose to the Colts? I think we're going to split with Miami, but not this time around. Maybe next time when we go to Miami. But I seriously think we can take Indy.
