shame on those of you who think the pats are only going to win 2-3 more games...
Will you come back and say "Bravo to those of you who predicted accurately" if they are right?
YesYou mean like you?
Or the fact they are looking at the Patriots this year and seeing we are 2-4 with the only 2 wins against bottom feeder teams.Not really. There is a negative tone on the board these days.

That's like having a female friend that you met at 130# that blew up to 165# and you say nothing because you support (encourage) her?Negative Nancy also says she is a realist. Has been true since the beginning of time. Will never change. You be you. Just don't expect me to join you in your realistic perspective. You might be right or wrong, that is unimportant. What is important is that for me "support" implies encouragement. I am a Pats Fans and I "support" my team.

Support (caring) also includes having a straight talk with her, like stop pigging out, it's unhealthy
Not that us fans have any say in what the team does but I find it ironic that a couple of our own have been screaming since August to play a certain LG at RT. They were laughed at and blasted here. The team apparently just may do that on Sunday.
Sticking your head in the sand doesn't do anybody any good.
We're on a football forum. We're talking about the football plays and decisions made by the team. The team is playing and performing poorly.Well go ahead and have your straight talks than. Have at it. Enjoy.
I dont really think there's any reason to "shame" people. We all have different vibes with the team. I'm not a doomer, but im also not a person picking 9 wins because i like to be realistic.shame on those of you who think the pats are only going to win 2-3 more games...

This team isnt as good as we hoped, and at this point is going to go reflect our rookie's ups and downs and learning the nfl. We have some real question marks on the defensive side, and not enough production out of the offense (due in part to a rookie leading it). If people are pessimistic, they arent without reason. Sh**ing on the team is another story.
I think the bottom line is the team has a fair amount of question marks, even if we've hung in there with some good teams. Some people dont have confidence, with everything i alluded to above, to pencil us in for 7 wins. I think the floor is 2 wins, because of just objectively worse teams, and the ceiling is unknown.
It’s the team not just Bill.There are 11 games left. Don't you think Bill is capable of getting more than 3 wins? Those people who think the Pats are only getting 2-3 wins think they'll go 2-9 or 3-8 the rest of the way. One of those remaining games is against the Jets. We also have Jacksonville and Miami left. That's 3 wins there - not gimmes but likely wins.
I think Bill is an Incredible coach and puts them in position for success, but the players have to go out there and execute in order for them to win games.There are 11 games left.

So no, I don't think anything is a gimme outside 2-3 games. Bill coaches, he doesn't play.
