All of NE games will be vital. The Colts have an easy schedule and get to play all those games against their division, which is 6 guarantied wins. You can say the same thing about Denver. The Jets also have an easy path to 12-4 or 11-5 at the worst. The Pats need to to focus on today and win one game at a time and let that add up to a winning season.

One week at a time. Your about 2 1/2 months away from that game.

Nevermind the fact that even if this game does matter, do u think Houston will have any chance coming to foxboro in the heart of winter in a game that matters for the Pats, even if by some miracle it matters for the Pats? Your pessimism about losing those aformentioned middle games is highly reactionary, as it is more than likely that Tom and the offense will have kicked it into high gear by or during the Bye week, much like Peyton Manning and the Colts O' did last year. RELAX. HAVE FAITH. 10-5 going into WEEK 17? competing for the PLAYOFFS? R U KIDDING ME? PLAYOFFS?

you realize of course that if you take the letters in NO INDY and MIA, rearrange them and throw in a couple extra you come up with "NO DAMN waY"...so, of course we're not going to win those games...the OP is a genius...he saw that...get with the program here...

Seriously, we are in week 6. There is a lot of football between now and week 17. The Pats could have HFA advantaged locked up or already be mathmateically eliminated from the playoffs by week 17.
