Default Winning 19 Straight is next to impossible today

So it would not bother me in the least for the Pats to lose one and still win the Big One. Sure, it'd be great to run the whole table, and we may still do that, but I wouldn't burn all the candle now in an effort to set records. The only record that counts is the Trophy. I think the mental drain on the team now is even more than the physical drain. They are in totally uncharted territory.

Got PATS!! Wha -- Hoo- Wha !!!

So you want them to win every game? But, if that can't happen, you'll gladly settle for a 15-1 season and a Super Bowl? Way to go out on a limb there...

At this point it's one straight then two virtual byes and a fairly easy last game before the normal playoffs. It's 7 straight now, not 19 straight, and two of them are nothing.

the common dominator between the eagles game and ravens is that the opposing d-backs got away with grabbing, holding on the pats wr's.

I expect the offense to put up 30 plus points this week.

there is much to prove this week and i'm almost thinking with you at this point to get the one loss to get the drain out of the way.

it's hard to figure out what this team is because it's a what have you done for me lately league.

It doesn't help matters that the league continues to monkey around with the schedule. Three consecutive night games and a fourth game shifted to "twilight" at 4:15 is bound to take a big toll.

What I *want* is another Superbowl. I'd LOVE for them to take all 19. I'm pulling for them to do it. It's uncharted territory. No has ever done it before. I'd love for the Pats to be the one.

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!!

This night game thing is not a small challenge. For the sake of ratings the NFL has put the Pats into a difficult position. But, then again, if the Pats can rise to this occasion, it will seal the deal on "the greatest dynasty ever". For the Pats to take on all other teams AND the ratings god, too, and win it all would leave no doubt in anybody's mind.

Go Pats!!

How the hell is it impossible by the way?

How is a seven game win streak with 5 games at home impossible?
