No one in Boston will notice it since it will be Red Sox talk win or lose ,all week long.. I dont think the Patriots will lose, but if they do people are more concerned about the red sox, espically on a Patriots Monday on WEEI... So it may fly under the radar..

Taking everything into consideration, a "Red Sox town" or whatever, Game 7, playing a crappy opponent in Miami, just another week in the NFL grind, etc... it would be a HUGE DEAL if the Patriots lost. It would not "fly under the radar," IMO. Unfortunately for this particular argument, the point is moot, since we won't be losing any games anytime soon.

Book it.

It won't fly under the radar, but Red Sox would still get more talk, mostly because hardcore Red Sox fans like to b!tch and moan more than HC Patriots fans.

I don't care if no-one notices, a lose today would be BRUTAL. Has an 0-6 team ever beaten a 6-0 team ?

The Dolphins last year knocked off an undefeated Bears team. I think it was week six. The Fins had either 1 or no loses.

Although I think the Pats will win, they have always struggled in Miami.

All fair points. We will now kick their ass by more than 2 touchdowns.

100 percent disagree. The loss will be talked about, complained about and anger will be there.

I w3as watching the 1979 Steel Americas Games program yesterday and they were either on undefeated or one lose and lose too a 0-6 Bengals team. They turned it over 9 times that game and that helped.

Are you in denial? What Boston fan (born and bred) will not notice a loss by one of the big three? Seventh game prior to the World Series, undefeated season, or B.C. lose #2 ranking (did not play). Not today, not on my birthday.

ps. the Celts lost their first exhibition game, but they held out Pierce and Garnett.

This is actually the point of common ground for hardcore Red Sox and hardcore Patriots fans: they both love to b!tch and moan about the Red Sox.
