Patriots have the easiest schedule in the NFL over the last 7 weeks.

[cupofjoe1962]

The Patriots opponents over the next 7 weeks have a 21-41 combined record.

Chiefs - 4-5
Eagles - 3-6
Colts - 0-10
Redskins - 3-6
Broncos - 4-5
Dolphine - 2-7
Bills - 5-4

I think we still have a good chance to have the best record in the AFC
and get home field advantage.

except for one game, the Jets play the same teams as the Pats. The Jets have to play the Giants while the Pats play the Colts.

The Pats can't assume anything....every game is important.

There is no easy game, no easy schedule, any given Sunday. Cappicce?

Agree completely nothing is easy in the NFL.. there is also "the try knock the big guy off mentality".....

So it would be better if their last 7 games were against Chicago, Green Bay, New Orleans, Baltimore, Houston, Atlanta, and San Francisco?

Exemple:

Seattle Seahawks (2-6) vs Baltimore Ravens (6-3)


Seattle 22, Baltimore 17 Final

Seattle Seahawks (3-6)

It 's hard to beat any NFL team When they play with the right personnel, and the right Game plan.

Bonus from yesterday game:
Lynch makes Ray Lewis and Jarret Johnson look silly

The Ravens have lost more games they should have won than any other team the last decade. I believe they're 0-3 against sub .500 teams this year.

I agree no game is easy but relatively speaking things got a helluva lot easier.

My knees hurt just watching that move by Lynch. Very nice.

Yeah, any given Sunday for sure. Even the Colts game isn't a gimme in my mind (though I certainly relish the thought of the Pats pummeling that team).

Jets are paying a little schedule karma this week, playing a Thursday night game after a Sunday night. How does that happen? Probably the same way the Jets get the Chargers in a 1:00 East Coast game. Anyway, gonna be a fun Thursday game. Revis and Cromartie won't have anyone to cover. Just too bad the Broncs have some RB injuries.

I saw that play live on TV and just about had a coughing fit watching the replay of that over and over.

Ray Lewis looked like he was doing the "Elaine".

That was poetry in motion!

We're still going to be "doomed" in each of those games.

I hope the Pats don't underestimate any teams like last year with the browns. We need to win all these games

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

Seven straight "trap games"!!

Seriously, hopefully a few guys like Chung, Spikes, and McCourty can get 100% healthy and nobody else goes down.

Resonably good shot at HFA

If we take care of business, it's going to be between us Bal/Pitt and Hou. Pitt is our only H-t-H matchup, but Baltimore has the tiebreak with them in the division. If all four teams win out, we'll (NE/BAL/HOU) all have 2 AFC losses, so it will come down to strength of victory for HFA.

Kinda funny to look at it now after listening to people talk about the demise of the Patriots all of last week. Does anyone doubt this team can run the table? I don't.

I can't tell you how satisfying last night's game was.

 

[ensoul]

I can see them only losing one game or just flat out winning out the rest of the way. Unfortunately if they beat up a bunch of cupcake teams with poor to average quarterbacks that still does not show us what this team is made of.

What concerns me is that they go and beat up these weak teams then in the playoffs when they actually have to play team with a decent QB/defense they struggle. Great win last night, and even if they finish 12-4 or 13-3 it is still hard to be sold on this team.

If they all win out, it won't matter. The Pats are behind the Steelers and Texans. The Texans will be #1, Steelers #2, Pats #3


Edit: I take that back. Didn't realize the Texans and Steelers didn't have their bye yet.

Baltimore has the division tiebreak with the Steelers. If they end up with the same record, Pitt is a WC.

Next 7 Undefeated?

So with that hightly anticipated Jets game out of the way, does this team go undefeated the rest of the way? We have one of the easiest 7 game routes to close the season out.

I could honestly see us winning all of our remaining games and if we lost, it would either be the Eagles or Broncos. Even though the Eagles have a terrible record and bad 4th quarter curse right now, they are still a very dangerous team and cannot be taken lightly.

The Broncos for some odd reason seems to always beat us although I cant see Teebow lighting us up after a 2 for 8 passing game.

Thoughts?

Re: Next 7 Undefeated?

Reading the topic title I was ready to say that this was crazy but after going through the opponents, it's not. It actually is possible, though not probable in my opinion. One or two teams will probably know how to expose our defense especially as it gets thinner and thinner every week.

I'm giving it a 15% chance of running the table.
