Who will you guys be rooting for during this game. Obviously we want the jets to lose, but the Dolphins will be 3-0. I don't think they are as much of a threat as the Jets so I will want Miami to win. Plus I hate the Jets. But If Miami is beating the Jets does that tell us something else about Miami?
J-E-T-S JETS, JETS, JETS!!
As the SOLE Soul who said, BEFORE the season, that the Fish were more of a threat than the Jets, I adhere to my original position.
2010 is a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG shot for us, boys.
But we DO have...a PRAYER.

Tom Brady hasn't won a road game in the US against anyone but Buffalo since 2007.
That's a hyperbolic way of saying Brady hasn't won in his last 8 road games (given that he missed 2008 and has played "7" road games in 2009 and 1 in 2010).
Suffice to say, as bad as things appear, I think they can manage at least 3 road wins this season, I'm not worried about that.
Also, how many teams in the AFC do you think are definitively better than the Patriots?
If it's a "LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG shot" for the Patriots, what the hell is it for a team like the Rams?

Truthfully...
1) Colts (head-to-head they've owned us since the 2005 season, and are still an elite team coming off their SB appearance)2) Steelers (their QB situation looks iffy right now, but they can run and stop the run, something the Pats can't do either of at present time)
3) Texans (balanced overall with strong offense and defense)
That's about it. The Jets and Ravens could be better but not I'm not 100% convinced given how erratic their QB's have looked. Maybe the Dolphins, too. Chad Henne is trash in my opinion, but even he's capable of lighting up the Pats D and I don't think it's a given that the Pats would beat them in either matchup this season.
I can be swayed rather easily that the Pats are better than that but I'm going by what I've seen over the past few games, and past few seasons. This team, as presently constituted, is not a juggernaut, but rather just another competitive NFL team the same way the Dolphins, Titans, Falcons, and this year's Chargers are. Good, not great.

We do not want to need to win to prevent Miami from being 4-0, with a lead of two games over both division rivals, and tie-breakers agains both rivals.
