Just watching this on ESPN made me think...how all the people around the country seem to be praising and at the same time 'reprimanding' the pats for going for the perfect season instead of playing for the ultimate goal of winning the championship. They are showing some unlv team which got buried under its own pressure. Somehow every talking head seems to say 16-0 is great but doesnt mean anything without a championship.somehow these guys assume BB is targetting a perfect season from week 2 and the pats are not as concerned about the superbowl.all morning ditka kept saying it doesnt mean anything if it isnt 19-0- stating the obvious.
I remember when the first time it came it was after week 2 and BB was asked he said "its so ridiculous" . Now everyone is saying the patriots have to deal with the pressure of going undefeated etc . Iam not sure what the pats shouldve done..lost a game intentionally ?no one seems to answer that.
Iam just amazed how this talk of the perfect season was brought up from week 3 and has carried over till week 16.The season seems to have gone by in a hurry.
