I put three or four for no particular reason, other than that I had us 12--4 in the preseason predictions and things are unfolding in that direction. As I said in my prediction, this is a team to whom "stuff happens" and I think the panic-ridden among our brethren have to accept that it might happen again.
I still don't see how the Pats lose the Division unless they do something completely uncharacteristic and throw up all over themselves in Buffalo after two consecutive losses; in that case, I would start to think that our Chicken Littles might, like an old broken watch that is accurate twice a day, actually be right and that maybe it's time to reassess a few things. For now, I'm looking for a big win in Orchard Park this week and 10--3 at worst when the Texans come to town.
Also, let's look on the bright side. The number one seed hasn't worked out all that well for our lads the last two times they went to the SB, so maybe it's time to take a page from the Coughlin/Eli playbook and win it all from a a couple of rungs down the ladder.
