Lets Dive into this Schedule.

[Patstopia]

I see us 16-0, I always see us 16-0.
Where you see a bad secondary, I see a team so far ahead every game their opponents throw every down.
Where you see a depleted TE position, I see team that has withstood last years injuries and will add another young TE.
Where you see an untested WR corp, I see the potential for a powerful outside, down the field passing attack. Which we havent had since... well you know
I see a strong OLine
I see a strong Dline
I see a powerful run game
I see a horrible division I see a super........well to early for that, but....

I think we will be 14-2 this regulat season if healthy.


Sunday, Sept 29 at Atlanta Falcons 8:30 p.m. ET NBC
Sunday, Oct. 6 at Cincinnati Bengals 1:00 p.m. ET CBS
Sunday, Oct. 13 New Orleans Saints 4:25 p.m. ET FOX

This is a tough stretch we los 1 of these games. Atlanta will be the toughest IMO.


Sunday, Nov. 24 Denver Broncos 8:30 p.m. ET NBC*
Sunday, Dec. 1 at Houston Texans 4:25 p.m. ET CBS*


I can see a split of these 2. I still think the Pats are a terrible matchup for the Texan's D running Wade Phillips system.


Sunday, Dec. 22 at Baltimore Ravens 8:30 p.m. ET NBC*


Could be a loss I have to see how the D is this year with all the turnover. How Flacco copes with the loss of the 2 guys who killed the Pats last year.


As always the NFL is a war of asttrition and health will be the determinig factor see the relative health of the Niners and Ravens last year.

division 5-1
the tough games listed 3-4
the other games 3-0 (TB, Cleve, and NO)
total 11-5

Not sure about you but this is no slouch of a shift this season. The Patriots will be challenged continously and tested weekly.

Saints, Falcons, Bronocs, Texans (In Texas) will be the toughest outs in my opinion. Texas and Denver back-to-back games also. Then we also have the Ravens, Bengals (sleeper) and Steelers. I wouldn't sleep on Cam Newton either but we should win that game easily.

What's your initial thoughts? Any "blatent" loses? Whats the toughest game?

Add the annual 4 pick meltdown from Brady against a crap team and you get a final record of 13-3.

Bills - frauds (annual)
Dolphins - frauds
Jets - suck

Now back to your regularly scheduled Tebow rant.

I'm not seeing a Defense that we can't handle, nothing comparable to the 9ers or Seahawks D's of last year unless there's a couple of D coordinators that started prepping for us since the draft cough...cough...Arizona. If the O is on track those tough games look to be shoot outs, fun stuff...
