[desi-patsfan]

so many people think the Bengals are going to beat us huh? I guess that game will be a good test.

 

[Patters]

11-5

Losses to Broncos, Bengals, Colts, @Fins, and Vikings.

In general, I see this as a Season where we should be competitive all the way, but not a safe bet to win the Conference (as tho any team ever is):

*13--3 Overall.
*4--1 into the Bye Week (most likely L @ the Bengals after an emotional win over Denver).
*9--2 after the Bye (most likely L @ Miami with one other team jumping up to bite us)
*Assumes Branch returns and no major injuries where we're thin already.

*We win the division and get at least one home Playoff game. which we win (maybe get a bye in Week One). Then, anything can happen...

Bengals play at the Steelers the same day we host the Broncos, certainly an emotional if not a grudge match of their (Bengals) own. I'm sticking to 16-0.

And, may you be right!!!!

First post so I hope I don't frig this up...

12-4 with losses to Cincy, @ Fins, Colts (ugh) and at Titans (likely because it won't mean anything to us as we'll have the bye sown up)

So, what is your prediction if we ship Branch's dumb ass to Seattle?

Putting * by predictions is like having 4 Mulligan's during one round of golf.

11-5

Losses to Broncos, Bengals, Colts, @Fins, and Vikings.

Im not sold on Denver and to be honest, not sure why everyone else is. If not for horrible play by Brady (and others) , the Pats would have ROLLED on them in January.

I happen to think they beat Denver rather handily 24-13.

 

[Ring 6]

13 and 3, 1 home loss, 2 road losses 5-1 in division

 

[Bostonian1962]

You could have predicted that we go 19-0 on the way to another SB win and we end the Dolphins record.

Good point. I'll say anywhere between 0 and 16 and 19 and 0, another SB win, and the end of the Dolphins record. I put it in writing. No place to hide now. We'll see how I do.

That's 11-5. The only game that had me agonizing a bit was Denver. I hope I'm wrong about that one.

cheesh, I used the "*" because I couldn't make the "bullet" work...chill dawg!

as for where we are without Branch...I can't imagine that he won't be the difference in at least one W in the course of the season...

[1976pats]

I've seen a few of the faithful predict a loss at the Vikes and I confess I don't see that game as a threat. What spooks folks about that game?

 

[brdmaverick]

12-4 with losses to the Broncos, Colts, Phins (on the road) and the Packers (trap game on the road)

 

[Michigan Dave]

14-2. AFC Champs, SB XLI Champs. Booyah.
