of 8 "experts" 5 of them have the pats as their #1 ranked team...this is AFTER the week 1 games....
another has them as the #2 team...
really? not even I would rank them that high.....LOL, hopefully they know something we dont....
Interesting because it appears the average of this board would have them ranked about 25th
Randy was right in his postgame presser, there was a lot of bad football being played this past weekend from all teams across the spectrum. Like a lot of football fans, we all tend to be somewhat myopic in our perspective on this team because we have so much emotion wrapped up in it's success or failure. Unlike many of those teams we witnessed, this team will likely improve markedly over the next few weeks.
Yup.. win handily, or win ugly, a "W" is still a "W"...
I missed the first half and didn't see the play on which he got injured. Did Bernie Pollard roll into him or something?

Exactly. Pittsburgh...ugly. Indy...uglier. SDSuperchargers...downright fugily. Baltimore...wtf ugly. JETS...Houston, enough said (played it like a PS game...). Miami took that step back bigtime.
NO routed the hapless Lions. Means exacly nothing in the grand scheme. Let alone in this conference. They have yet to show they can finish a season strong. Carolina and Philly are in trouble...one has no QB while the other has too many to coexist without imploding. Dallas and NY have each other and Philly (and NO and MINNY) to worry about.
I'll take an ego challenging...character building win under a HC who will milk that for all it's worth anyday. Brady and the offense had one of their worst showings morph into one of their legendary outings in the span of 60 minutes. And everything tightened up down the stretch. That's what the pundits saw and they are extrapolating it over the season and assuming it will continue to trend up because over the course of seasons Mr. Situational Football's teams always do. Other teams and HC's are historically a bit more of a crap shoot. Can go either way.
Will be interesting to watch how the rest of the season unfolds in Buffalo. They could help us. He has some talent although again they are dropping like flies. He also has the elephant in the living room to deal with who looked a mite pouty already on MNF...
As I recall last season the JETS were flying at 30K until their pilot ejected...happens to rookies more often than legends. Wait til the league gets a book on Mr. Dirty. Then we can talk.
Felger is already worried about playoff seedings. I don't think he watched the other AFC front runners play this week.
