So You're Saying There's a Chance: The 2020 Patriots Playoff Push

[borg]

Don't advance for Lance

They just need to go 1-0 on Sunday. If they have a winning record the last quarter of the season I think they can sneak in

Just please don't do this Pats.

 

[Kontradiction]

Chargers game is very winnable. We will get our cheeks aggressively clapped by either the Rams, Dolphins, or both.

I don't think so. I think if we drop one to LA or MIA it will be more like a fart flap of the cheeks

Maybe one of those ones where your butthole is just open wider for whatever reason so you just hear a faint hiss of air blowing out?

Right yea, like when u open up a bit first because u dont want to make any noise. If they lose I think it'll be a competitive loss which obviously means nothing in the grand scheme of things other than they'll have a chance in every game

 

[Hyped]

So we just need to win six straight to just have a chance with everything else falling into place with the other 5 teams that are ahead of us and also a Denver team that is only one game back and has the tiebreaker over us. Might be worth mentioning at this point that we have only won 2 games in a row once this year when we beat the Jets who are tanking and the Ravens in a monsoon. We have managed though to lose 4 in a row.

5 games left.

In fact, I told myself after the Houston loss that this could be a start of a great "10 games to glory " DVD....6 to get to the dance...4 to win it all! One down....nine to go!!! LFG!!!

Google says the Patriots longest winning streak was 21 games, so nine should be a cakewalk.

Eh every SB run we had a stacked team.

Take 2014

QB: Brady
WR: Edelman
WR: Amendola
WR: Lafell
TE: Gronk
RB: Blount
RB: Vereen
RB: White
OL: Cannon
OL: Connolly
OL: Solder
OL: Wendell

DT: Branch
DE: Jones
DE: Ninkovitch
DT: Wilfork
OLB: Collins
MLB: Hightower
CB: Revis
CB: Browner
SS: Chung
FS: McCourty

That’s a loaded roster

Yet most posters, especially our perennially pessimistic ones, were sure the roster was trash after the KC MNF debacle. Some even didn't care, they couldn't stand it...late in the season after the turnaround.

 

[Nikolai]

So did the 2011 Giants. They too were a well coached team and their season ended pretty well I'd say.

How we beat those teams isn't that relevant. That's no different than making excuses when we lost to KC and Denver. Scoreboard says what it says.

With that said a run is very unlikely, but let's see what happens starting Sunday. I'm sure the team knows what is at stake.

I'm pretty sure we have a handful of posters here that are much smarter than the team, and definitely better GMs than BB. Just ask them.


This is sarcasm

 

[Triumph]

My prediction is:
AFCCG Titans @ Chiefs
NFCCG Packers @ Saints

Today, Charlie Weis pimped the 3 top NFC playoff teams as Saints, Packers and Seahawks.

He dissed Tampa and showed no respeck for his homeboy.

Titans could bust a move and have a legit shot to make the Big Bowl. Vrabel is a smart HC and he wont make the same error as last post season when he rolled into KC after he burned out Henry in Bmore and Boston.

Henry vs NE 34 carries for 182
Henry vs Bmore 30 carries for 195.

Tenn is proving last year wasn't a fluke and Tannehill is quietly having another solid season away from the QB killing Adam Gase.

KC will be in the AFCCG and the other 3 that will battle it out will be Pitt, Tenn and Baltimore.

NFC is wide open, but I agree with his top 3 teams.

I loved that team. It had a few weaker spots and was inconsistant in the early season, but they had heart. Key rookie that didn’t last : Stork. Really contributed that year.

XLIX might be the best Super Bowl evah. I know that LI was unbelievable, but a pick at the goal-line to seal a Lombardi is just "un-real" (as Al Michaels said).

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

I thought it was realistically over the second they lost the texans game... But I'll keep the blind dumb faith until I'm forced back into reality.

Perhaps darnold is worth a look knowing this

There you go

 

[Delicate Genius]

14-6

 

[Twentytothree]

14-6

at least....

 

[Nikolai]

14-6

Weird enough, there's a scenario that if the Pats run the table, and the Bills lose to Pittsburgh and Miami (possible), the Pats would even win the AFC East. Not making any bets, but wouldn't that be a hell of a way to start the playoffs? At home? After all this?
