Forget 3 straight night games, focus on 3 straight home games

Spin off of the impossible to go 19-0 thread ...

A lot of people are bemoaning the three straight night games and the media is pointing to how it's taking it's toll blah blah blah.

Well, they have come through unscathed. And if they beat Pitt, just watch as the talk flips from 3 straight night games to 3 straight home games, then hour plane flight to NY and it's home for the playoffs.

These 3 straight home games are really a god send and should do a lot to get this team prepped & rested.

It's only a matter of time before opposing teams **cough** Polian **cough** and fans start complaining about this scheduling.

Not only do have have just one road game until (hopefully) the SB now, compare it to last year when not only did we have no bye but the AFCCG was our 4th road game in 5 weeks.

It's nice to know that the Pats will only be outside Gillette Stadium for 1.5 days at most over the next 7.5 weeks. And NY is like a 2nd home to Brady (7-0 at the Meadowlands).....well, it is his 2nd home, dude lives there in the offseason.

When the schedule came out I thought this would be key, time for them to start rasing their level of play so they hit the playoffs on a tear.
