Pats played a tough game against a worthy opponent,but we are now tied for a 3-way in the AFC east,do you think we can can compete with the best teams in this league?

Not even close. They might just sneak into the playoffs, but with how the offense played against MIA and SD and how the defense played against the Jets, Cowboys, and Giants, the potential is most definitely there.

The Bengals and Texans are the #1 and #2 seed in the AFC, respectively, right now.

If you honestly feel the Patriots can't even "compete" with them I don't know what to tell you. Not to mention all three of our losses (to three good teams), were by one score, thus proving we can "compete" with anyone.

Yes, we are done. The pass defense simply is not good enough to win it all.

At this point, I'd say yes. But that's only right now. Pats could be 10-3 in 5 weeks and my outlook might be totally different.

But as of right now, I'd say Pats aren't capable of seriously contending. Too many concerns.

The patriots are the most untalented contender in nfl history.

Only delusional patriot fans believed the pats could win a superbowl these last 2 seasons..

Outside of chad (no where to be found) johnson and alber (i can't play every snap) hayeneworth, how has the patriots improved?
