I have to vote for the 04 team. They had the power running game, controlled passing, a physical D and of course....the clutch kicker.

Cheer up all, at least your not in Afghanistan......like me. We play for all the marbles every day here.

Great article.

Most analysts say that the Chargers are the most talented team in the league, they don't say that about the Giants. SD would also blowout the Giants. The Pats will stop the Giants running game, pick off Eli and score a ton of points in a laugher...

Lets see.... The first game the Giants were playing at home against a Pats team that was missing quite a few people that they aren't now. The Giants got a special teams TD and the Pats were trying to run basic plays to avoid tipping their hand before the playoffs. And they still lost??? Now...

Thats great to hear. For not familiar with players from the first Pats SB team here he is http://www.patriots.com/alumni/index.cfm?ac=alumnibiosdetail&bio=3146

I would expect the opener to be a home game against a divisional oponent. Perhaps the Bills will play sacrificial lamb again? The West Coast trips will be a grind and likely cause a loss ot two, but who cares? This year will likely not be repeated for a LONG time, but I would expect another...

Aside from the loss of Colvin and Sammy Morris, I think this is the healthiest the Pats have ever been heading into the playoffs. There hasn't been any rash of injuries like in years past. Did they change anything in their weekly regimen?

Actually, I found myself quostioning McDaniels a few times in the past few weeks. When you have a team as loaded as this playing against inferior personnel, why try to finesse the situation? It seems they could or should just line up and impose their will and beat them. I witnessed too many...

Woulda coulda shoulda......at the end of the day WHO actually is 14-0 ???

Drafting depends of who is available when your position comes up, not what you need. That is a philosophy that divides teams to this day. The Pats will definately target a guy they want or even a wish list, but when their position comes up they will likely draft the best guy on their board if...

Pats fan since Craig James first season (I played on a Pop Warner team called the Ponies, Craig was half of the Pony Express in college at SMU w/****erson, I wore 32, blah blah blah...) I unfortunately spent 4 years of college in Buffalo during their SB run when NE SUCKED...and had to endure...

I have to say hands down it is the fans of the Buffalo Bills. They have been NE's little toy since Jim Kelly rode off into the sunset and they absolutely hate the Pats, Patsfans and NE (especially MA). http://boards.buffalobills.com/showthread.php?t=29060 I think Buffalo is going to lose...

Man for man, position by position to include the coaching staff, the Pats are a better team. The deciding factor will be if the Pats come out with enough emotion to match or surpass the Steelers. The last two games they basically sleep-walked through most of the game and did enough at the end...
