People outside the New England fan base are already making the Patriots the favorites for Super Bowl 42.
We came within a 1st down of being in the Super Bowl this season. We've added AD and Welker and with those two alone look to have really improved the team. Let's not make the mistake though of thinking it's that easy.
I'll always remember the Bills fans back in 2002. They had played us down to the wire both games in 01 and weren't even that good. All the Bills fans mentioned that, then said adding Bledsoe will obviously put them over the top. Their overall record improved but we beat the piss out of them both times.
Same with the Miami fans this year. They had finished the season strong and added Cullpepper. They were going to take over the East. Look how that worked out.
We should be better. We're not close to being done this offseason and already we look better on paper. But other teams change too. Some will get better, some will get worse.
I just don't think we should be making hotel reservations in Arizona already.
