I'm worried about our Pats

[NEPatriot]

In the last couple weeks, my blood pressure was high and I screamed and cursed when I watched our team play. I'm happy that we win and I look forward to a perfect season.

I feel that our team is getting tired lately and does not have the same energy in previous 4 weeks. We simply can't win a game by 3 pts. We will never break any record if our team continues playing like this.

We definitely need to work on our D and O and improve them quickly if we want to be a champion.

Does the Pats finally run out of gas in the end.? I"m really concerned and worried. I hope that we play better games in the next few weeks if we really want to be name the BEST.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL! Where did you come from? You must be one of the new breed of patsfans we've been getting around here lately.

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

Stop watching football and start following lawn darts or something.

We need some new icons. We really need the crybaby face they have on the Planet.

In our Championship seasons we won a lot of games the way we won these last 2. (and lost some too)
I am MUCH more confident in winning a Championship when we show the qualities of making plays to win close games than I am in blowing out teams we are certain to beat.
Granted, a blowout win means we played better, but the prime quality of a Champion is making plays when winning or losing hangs in the balance.
It is unlikely we will have the opportunity to blow out 3 teams in the playoffs. The character and qualities of winners this team has shown the last 2 weeks INCREASES my confidence level.

A point to ponder.....

Going forward, the Patriots trip to Lombardi involves 5 home games, 1 road trip, & 1 neutral site.

 

[NEPatriot]

don't call me this or that when i give my opinion. It's certainly your ignorant that allows you to say these things.

In the first 9 games, we blew every team away with 20+ pts. We won by 3 pts when we faced Eagles and Raven which are considered UNDERDOGS. What's up with that.? We can't expect to win a game by hoping a bad time out from another team.

Is it something we should be worried when the season is nearly over.? absolutely.

I have never said that being the best is easy BUT our team needs to maintain the same level that we had in the first 9 weeks if we really want to dominate.

Sorry but your "ignorant" where football is concerned is pretty transparent. We don't want to dominate, we want to win. That's all that matters at the end of the day. You obviously weren't here before this year. Welcome to the fold, but remember you bandwaggon fans bring most of your anxiety on yourselves. This dynasty was built on 3 point wins in games they should have lost.

I was thinking about this today. Three home games, one road game in NY, then home games all the way until SB42. It's nice to be 7-0 on the road with 4 games to play.

Regards,
Chris

how long do you expect to maintain this 3 point when the season is nearly over.?

I guess we know the answer in 2 games and SB.

EVERY team that the Patriots have played this year have been considered UNDERDOGS, just because they beat some by 20+ and others by 3 doesn't mean somethings wrong.

Both the Eagles and Ravens played very aggressively and took risks in their game plans (lots of blitzing, pressing and grabbing the Pat's receivers, etc.) because they had nothing to lose.

Go and read the comments by the players after these games, all you'll see is "We played our best game of the year" over and over again.

Play a sloppy game, the Pat's kill you by 30, play a real tough game and the Pat's come back on you in the 4th to win.

No one ever said it would be easy, to think so takes away from all the hard work and effort they put in every week to prepare.

What? I was saying they should not call you names. You ought to proofread your comments before clicking the post button as they are extremely difficult to read and understand...

Honestly, we really all have to think about these last couple of games much more clearly. First of all, everyone's perspective is thrown way out of skew when you see spreads that are 24 and 20 respectively - those are ridiculous. We're expecting blowouts and nothing less - this team that is best of all time. Despite what the records are of the Eagles and Ravens, both teams are still very good. Both teams have some very, very good players. Both teams have had major flaws, but if those flaws iron out, just for one game, dangerous teams. These are not the 49'ers or Dolphins. The Baltimore game was on the road in really tough conditions.

My buddy, whose a Broncos fan, was telling me how he didn't see the Pats slowing down a few games ago and I said things are going to level out. This is the National Football League, and it's a collection of awesome talent. In the FA age you aren't going to be able to stockpile all that in one team. No team is flawless, an impossiblity. You can't expect teams to win 52-10 week in, week out. Even the best teams are going to be expose and opposition will want to be the team that finally figures it out. I don't expect

There's not a lot of love for bandwagon fans like yourself here. Sorry. Deal with it.

I like our team to win but our team needs to be consistent and persistent to the end.

Do you expect we will come out and win like this when we face another team such as Colt in SB when we didn't play well in the past 2 games.?

I certainly hope so.

Both the Eagles and Ravens played very aggressively and took risks in their game plans (lots of blitzing, pressing and grabbing the Pat's receivers, etc.) because they had nothing to lose.

this is the message which these teams are sending other teams and if our team is not prepared, we will not have a perfect season.

No one ever said it would be easy, to think so takes away from all the hard work and effort they put in every week to prepare.

i'm not here to take away their effort but give my opinions because we have some tough games ahead of us. We need to be well-prepared.

Actually Mo, this guy could be NEM. He is back on the board with a new ID. He kida flamed up just like NEM.

I have not expected any love from people like you when I posted my messages here. I'm not here to be your friend or be nice to you. If you don't have anything to add to your conversation besides your bandwagon comment, you probably have a different point of view after meditating what I said for 5 mins.

I don't know why you don't like bandwagon. I like it.

When i see a good team, i want it to be a better team but you still want it to be good because winning 3 or 20 pts does not matter in your head.

Then we also need an icon for the people that declare the game over when the Patriots go up 7 - 0 on their first possession.

 

[Patstopia]

I believe close wins and comeback wins, help this team build character. I love knowing in the last few minutes of a game that the Pats will step forward and do whatever is needed to win.
I could care less what we did the game before. It's winning the game they are playing that counts. You need to enjoy the wins and let the Pats worry about the adjustments. In any close game, the Pats will always have the advantage.
