Default It is splipping away...

The Greatness of the Patriots, at least as the Team of the Decade. The Colts look to beat our regular season records, which honestly I thought it would stand for a LONG long time...

Spy gate, the Colts owning us, Blown Super Bowl, and as someone else mentioned in another thread, im remembering the epic failures, rather than the great games of greatness which the pats seemed to overcome all odds.

I want to see some quality wins. Against the most hated team... Steelers, Broncos, and Colts...

We can't beat our rivals anymore...

THe Pats can still potentially finish this season with only 3 losses. They have 3 superbowls. A wheelbarrow full of records. Etc. etc.

It stings because that loss was epic and it JUST happened. I don't think it's fair to say that the Pats are any less of a contender for team of the decade. Just wait til you pound the Jets next week and feel better.

Difficult to disagree with anything, the only upside is :

1) We are really close to winning these losses so it could change around in the playoffs

2) We still have a ton of draft picks so the last 5-6 years of Brady could still be good.

But RIGHT THIS SECOND the beautiful decade is going to end up being a good 4 year run and 5 years of frustration.

I agree every team has its ups and downs, with BB at the helm we will be there this year and next... I really wish some would exit, instead of all the half empty threads..

When the Colts win 22 in a row including the Superbowl I'll gladly crown their asses. Until then they can have all of our regular season records, they mean nothing.

Wow talk about over-reacting. We just went toe to toe with the best team in the league. In their house with officiating doing everything to keep them in the game.

This team has a great foundation of youth on defense. It's technically a rebuilding season for that side of the ball and we are I believe 2nd in the NFL in points allowed.

2006 and 2007 we are one play away from beating the eventual SB champs. This year you know we will be right there again.

We have a boatload of draft picks in the upcoming drafts including what should be a top 10 pick in 2011.

6-3 and all of a sudden the world is crumbling.. amazing.

Chill. I understand. We're all having a bad day here. Give it time. Get a little perspective. The sun will come up tomorrow. There will still be three Lombardi's in Foxboro.

The year is not over yet...But your right 5 years of frustration..

2005 - We could have beaten Denver, but we bet our selves..
2006 - a year that we should have won the super bowl, but we let deion branch go, because we had reche Caldwell
2007 a special season with a big black mark
2008 - The year with out Brady
2009- Who knows, but the wind is out of the sails today.. Barring a super collapse, we will be in the playoffs..
