Patriots current favorite to win Super Bowl 44

[AzPatsFan]

very surprising considering we have as many questions to answer as any team i not mor.e
another reason for everyone to hate the pats.

Oh What questions might those be?

Who is the ILB, if they don't shift a) Vrabel, or b) AD and if c) Tedy retires?

Who backs up on the Offensive line? ...Besides, Hochstein, Levoir, Britt Yancey, O'Callaghan

Who is the third TE?

Who makes the Team as the Fifth/Sixth OLB?
After AD, Vrabel, Woods, Crabel, Colvin and Guyton?

Who is the third/fourth QB after Brady, (super sub) Cassel, O'Connel/Guttierez?

Again, What questions were you referring to ? There doesn't seem to be a question about a single starter here, anywhere. In most cases, not even the first or second backup, either.

 

[carolinatony]

Every team some some questions going into next year. With Brady back(please) and a couple of new players to upgrade the defense and we are right back in the mix.

If I were in vegas right now and saw these odds with $2000 handy, here's what I'd do:

$550 NYG
$550 NE
$350 SD
$250 NO
$200 HOU
$100 KC - hoping that Pioli acquired Cassel !!!!!

GREAT VALUE with the Chargers IMO

So the curse is in, eh?

That's surprising given the Patriots' 2009 schedule and the 2009 schedules of the Steelers, Ravens, and Cardinals.

Seedings haven't had a lot of effect this postseason.

 

[Fencer]

I don't know about the Superbowl, but I would definitely put a wager on them winning their division. They are going to be really good, really fast.

The Patriots were 5-11 BB's first year, with a better coach than Pioli will have, and a team that had been in the Super Bowl not that many years before.

BB's second year, he was able to bring in a huge influx of cheap FAs, including a lot of players he knew from the Jets, without facing all that much competition for players he felt fit his system.

Pioli has a better pick situation than BB did with the Pats, but otherwise his prospects for a quick turnaround aren't as good.

I'm really starting to believe there is some significance behind Superbowl 44 being in Miami.

History books are waiting to be re-written.

Oh God. I didn't even want to think about that, but now I can't help it.

The Patriots, who haven't won a Super Bowl in their last four seasons, and didn't even make the playoffs this season, are still the gold standard in the NFL. I love it!

That would be awesome. Honestly, I don't care what the schedule is, I'm convinced as long as Brady and Moss are together, this team is so much better than the rest of the league (minus Colts/Giants) that 19-0 will always be a possibility.

 

[Jangles]

Based on what exactly? Maybe if Brady is the starting QB opening day????? Not sure what gives them all this info to make that kind of prediction......Last I checked we had some glaring holes on this team.........I guess it is "crystal ball" kind of stuff....

This

I love our team but we aren't that solid yet.

 

[wdkantro2]

I like the longshot odds for the Texans. Would not be surprised if they are next years AZ cardinals.

 

[VJCPatriot]

I'd rather that the Pats were the underdogs. I assume that Vegas is assuming, that Brady will be 100% healthy for 2009.

 

[SoCal Bong]

I was just in Vegas this past weekend and put down $100 on the Pats at 8-1 at the Hilton.
