Team 1
5-0 record. Killing every team, QB on the way to setting alltime records, many pundits truly speaking as if you are the best team ever, and can legitmately go undefeated. Just killed the second best team in the league.
Team 2
3-2 record. 2 horrendous defensive games giving up boatloads of points. A QB that just doesnt seem to get it, and although the coach and team seem to believe in the young QB who hasn't proven anything yet (other than being there a few years and earning the coaches confidence) it just looks like the team is going nowhere with this QB. Sitting 1 1/2 games behind the upstart division leader.
Team 1 is obvious, Choice 2 not so obvious.
Team 1 is the 2007 Patriots.
Team 2 is BOTH the 2008 Patriots and 2007 Giants.
In 2007 it would have turned out better to be team 2.
Anyone else think those fans that want to write off the season are jumping the gun a bit?
And, by the way, the 2003 Pats were 3-2 and IIRC had just let up a ton of points to the Titans and only got the offense going by giving the ball to Mike Cloud. (I'm right about the game, not sure about it being week 5) and the 2001 Pats were 2-3, having lost to the Bengals, having gotten destroyed by the Fins, and having scored a whopping 3 points against the Jets. (and given up 56 points in the last 2 games)
Oh yeah, the 2005 Steelers were also 3-2 having lost 2 of their last 3.
Wow, what are the chances we could ever overcome this hole we are in?
