not much on the pats except
"I though John Madden said it best Sunday night on NBC when he said you have to play this game with passion, and the Patriots weren't doing it. They looked like they were sleepwalking"

yes King Peter, the Jets are better than the Pats right now...that's why they beat them at home last week.

what a joke.

the colts can't run the ball or stop the run, but they're the second best team in the league...

we've officially fallen off the national radar...know what?...I kinda like it.

That's exactly why they should. Answer me this. If reputation should have nothing to do with it. Why are the 1-2 Steelers rated ahead of us? Because we had an off night against a team that has had a great deal of long term success against us? Were our two victories any less impressive than their one victory against the Dolphins?

somewhere I'm sure I wrote/suggested that the Pats DESERVED to be on the national radar, but I'm still searching for that reference, -- please help.

Look, RIGHT NOW, they're absolutely playing like a middle of the pack team, but how are we worse than NYJ? That was my first point.

and yes, I think the colts are overrated...no, this opinon does not depend on the game they won sunday. unconventional I suppose.
