7-2 at the bye: how many more regular season losses for the Pats?

[farn]

Two more losses. One of the divisional games as a WTF, and either Detroit or GB. I predict Detroit.

 

[Patstopia]

I am happy with 12-4, but that would mean 2 weeks where all the haters rage and the board is unreadable. So I am praying that St Nick also gives everyone an early gift of "perspective" for Christmas!

 

[OhExaulted1]

I think we'll go 13-3 (losing @GB) but I envision close calls that could go the other way with DET, SD, and maybe even the divisional games (but probably not). I'm not worried about Indy though.

@IND - W 38-27 (8-2)
DET - W 26-21 (9-2)
@GB - L 30-38 (9-3)
@SD - W 28-24 (10-3)
MIA - W 30-13 (11-3)
@NYJ - W 24-7 (12-3)
BUF - W 27-24 (13-3)

Realistic. That GB game is the one that worries me. If we do loose that SD is F@hk&d with a revenge game. I'll call it like this though so I don't look like a homer.

@IND-W 50-17
DET- W 45-13
@GB -W 35-10
@SD - W 45-7
MIA- W 41-10
@NYJ- W (Forfeit)
BUF- W 56-10

They would not lose again....

Scared of the Bills coming to Foxboro for the last game of the year with playoff implications. Yeah. OK. And we're a 11 win team going in. OK. Where are the next 2 losses coming from?

Yeah, that is what I am saying LOL Scared of the Bills! Why would you take my post as being scared of the Bills? Comical!

Here, I will go slow for you. Someone claimed the Bills could be a trap game. Since the Bills are the second best team in the Division and cold conceivably be a 10 win team when we play them,( although its not very likely) how would that be a trap game?

You think the Pats are going to take that team lightly (definition of a trap game)

It could be a game that seals homefield, or a bye. Or it could be a completely meaningless game because the Pats playoff position could be set by then and they may rest players.

But, please tell me - How could the last game of the season be a trap game? Its either a must win for playoff implications or an irrelevant game.

If the Patriots play like they did against Denver and stay healthy i doubt they lose another game this season including playoffs.

However that is very unlikely to happen. I think Brady drops one and the team as a whole has a lack luster performance so i put us at 2 which likely lets Denver have the first seed : (

However i see only 1 loss as a possibility as well. Mark my words Brady will have 1 more stinker this year. Just hope it is not in the playoffs.

Clearly you didn't see my question. Where are the next 2 losses coming from? It's highlighted in the section of my post you decided to respond to in post #45.

I think Chargers and maybe GB

 

[OhExaulted1]

If we don't loose those 2 games, how can it be a Trap Game?

 

[Bruins29]

Who are you asking?

 

[OhExaulted1]

OK then. Enjoy that prediction yee of little faith.

 

[PATS16N0]

The Patriots are a horrible match up for Green Bay. I don't care what the media says or what delusional hope Denver morons are holding on to. If anyone can tell me how Green Bay is going to stop this offense for even a second, I'd be very interested to learn.

New England's defense won't let Rodgers keep pace. It'll be decisive.

 

[Bruins29]

OK then. Enjoy that prediction yee of little faith.

Really? Most of the poster here are saying 12-4 also. I guess eveyone here is "yee of little faith?"

If they end up 12-4 I could see those as possible loses

But please, answer my question. How could the Bills game be a trap game?

 

[PATS16N0]

Our game with Indy is going to be one sided annihilation. They're just not top tier.

Luck throws 4 interceptions against us a game. Belichick is not impressed.

You responded to Zipster's comment about the Bills game being a trap game by stating they me be a 10 win team by the then and we might only have 11 wins. I responded by asking you who we loose 2 games to. You've responded SD and GB.

Ask Zip why it would be a trap game. I just wanted to know who you've projected us to loose to.

Unapologetic homer B29, not looking for pissing match. Just a little to pumped after yesterday.

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

I think they'll lose one more division game, as well as one of Green Bay / Indy / Detroit (my guess right now would be GB).

Sounds about right to me.

That was my prediction if 12-4 was the record. I hope we win out to the SB. Then again I said that I would take a healthy team and playoffs over a better reg season record and an injured key player.

It seems like most other posters pick 12-4 as the likely record. I would think all pick SD as a possible loss.

Then again they could only lose one up to the Bills game. And if their playoff seed is set at that point it is likely BB rests a lot of players (Bills could be playing for a wildcard or pride) and we could lose the Bills game, which would be meaningless.

I think that has a possibility of happening. So maybe its SD and the Bills.

 

[TBR]

Hopefully we pull off a winning streak similar to 2003 and go on to win the SuperBowl

In 2003 our winning streak started after a week 5 loss. In 2014, so far, it's been since week 4.

In 2003 we played the Broncos week 9 and had a bye in week 10 - just like we did this year.

In 2003 we ended the season playing the Jets and Bills - just like we do this year.

In 2003 we beat Peeton in the AFCCG at Gillette - just like we will this year.

No man, I like it. I thought you took my original post out of context. I like the win out prediction but health is important. And losing in SD is ok if SD is fighting for their lives. Losing to Buffalo is ok if its a meaningless game which it may very well be.
