I agree it's more fun to play the underdog role. But then again the Pats have finally earned respect for what they've done out on the field. So you can't really have it both ways. If you're playing that awesome, people will take notice. I want to see the Pats keep playing great. So if accolades come along the way, just graciously ignore them like Brady and BB does and repeat - "Nothing's been accomplished yet. This team hasn't gotten done what it has set out to do."

But as a fan, it is DAMN FUN watching them doing what they're doing and they way they're doing it in dominating fashion! Pats are making it pretty clear that they are the team to beat. But from their mindset, they're just trying to beat every team they face from week to week. There's a big difference in mentality for the Pats from over in the Meadowlands. Don't crow about it. Just do your talking with your play on the field.

I'm like Belichick and Brady, I feel like they haven't accomplished *****. One game at a time. The two highest scoring offenses of all time didn't win the SB. Two romps in a row in weeks 12 and 13 don't win the Lombardi. One week at a time.

Not just these articles; how many Super Bowl threads do we have on the board today? All in good fun; it's comforting knowing the team's motto is "don't believe the hype."

Damn....

We are 3-2 in superbowls we had no shot at winning; and 0-1 in SB we had no shot at losing.

Can't the mediots find something nice to say about Atlanta?

This defense has given less than 14 points in each of their last two game. Heck they have given up less than 14 point combined in their last two games. So yeah.
