Remember, it took Montana and the immortal 49'ers NINE YEARS to win four SB's!!! These guys are going to get that job done a lot faster. With a good draft, a balanced schedule (unlike the first eight games this year) and a little luck, I can easily see 14--2 next year.

Yes, the good news is that by the time of the Denver game, the Pats were back to where I considered them the best team in football. Hard to see us ever missing the playoffs in the next few years (Brady's health willing). Hopefully free agents see this and realize New England is STILL the place to come for guaranteed playoff adventures.
