Here's to a Pats win and an upset from Buffalo (not that it would be a huge upset). Get this division clinched.

thanks, as usual, miguel. i know it's early, but do you have a quick read on getting a bye week? my impression is that it's gonna be tough unless we win out and get some help in the form of a loss by Baltimore or San Diego.

I am ones of those people already trying to see who we could play first round. I would like to see the Jets and Jags make it instead of Broncos and Chiefs. I do not like our match ups against the latter 2 teams.

Updated after Thursday game, Sunday 1:00 games, Sunday 4:00 games, SNF and MNF.

Also all the information on current division leaders, wild cards, and wild card hopefuls:

Coolest though is the brackets webpage where you can see who plays who (at least the first round) if the season ended right now:

Best case senerio we get the number 2 seed.. 1 is not out of reach, but would not be uspet at the number 2 .. Just would love the bye..

Also , I know its stupid and crazy, but I want no part of the Jets in the playoffs.. Sorry you can say the schedule is easy, you can say that Pennignton has a noodle arm, but the fact is The Jets know how to beat us. I might even take Denver now before I take the Jets, although Denver is our Daddy as well...

The Jets that the Patriots have beaten in 7 out of the last 8 games? Is your feeling because of Mangini?

I would LOVE to play the Puffin & his Jets in the playoffs. They shot their load.

I don't know about playing the Jets in the playoffs. They appear to be setting up as a cinderella team.
They have by far the easiest schedule of the 9 potential playoff teams. They face the Bills, Vikes, Phins and Raiders. They are the only potential playoff team that does not have to face an opponent that has a legitimate shot at the playoffs. They should win out, and that would mean a lot of confidence to that team.

Yes , I know the pats played well the first game this yr ,except for a few busted plays.. But Mangini will have his guys up for the challenge, and BB will add to the fire about not mentioning his name etc.. I would rather the Jets stay home, or just let them go to the playoffs and get wacked by Baltimore.. But for me I do not want to see the Jets at all...
