Stop it.  It\u2019s ridiculous, and until they beat one of the elite teams it\u2019s a scenario that shouldn\u2019t even be discussed.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nI mean come on, they\u2019ve beaten four 1-3 football teams.  If they blow out the Cowboys and Colts it may be cause to get a little excited, but until that happens they haven\u2019t done anything yet.  As a matter of fact, this Sunday\u2019s game against the Cleveland Browns has every element of the classic \u201ctrap game\u201d.  The Browns have gone from team that looked like it was fading into oblivion, to a team that is averaging 34 points per game over the last three contests.  This is a \u201cdo or die\u201d year for Browns head coach Romeo Crennel, and as we\u2019ve seen players tend to rally around their head coach when times get tough.  So far it looks like things may be finally coming together for the Browns, and with a short week of preparation it will be critical for New England to avoid a let down.\n<\/p>\n<p>So far I think it\u2019s safe to say that overall in the National Football League, it\u2019s been an odd season.  It\u2019s amazing to look around the league and seeing all the clubs that fans are accustomed to seeing success struggling, while other teams who were at the bottom of the standings last season are flourishing this year.  But again, we\u2019re only four games in.  Realistically, who knows where things will be 12 weeks from now?\n<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, everyone has seen their fair share of unbeaten teams get knocked down, we\u2019ve even seen many more with great regular season records who have gotten bounced out of the first round of the postseason.  And let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s been a long time since the Patriots have won anything.  Since they last won Super Bowl XXXIX, Patriots fans have seen two playoff losses, one to the Denver Broncos in 2005 in the AFC Divisional round, and the other last season at the hands of the Indianapolis Colts during the AFC Championship game.\n<\/p>\n<p>So the motivation of winning is obviously there as they have plenty to prove.  But anyone in that locker room thinking about an unbeaten season at four games in should have their head examined, and Belichick would probably be the first to make that point.  All the more reason why until they\u2019re heading into the final game of the season at 15-0, there\u2019s no point in talking about it, at least not realistically.\n<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s wait and see if they can beat Indianapolis first before we get too excited.  Because I don\u2019t know about the rest of you, but I think I can honestly say I hate the Colts more than I hate the Yankees.  It\u2019s bad enough that Peyton Manning can\u2019t turn down any endorsement opportunity and that we have to watch commercial after commercial for whatever product he\u2019s decided to attach his name to.  But seeing New England lose to Indianapolis twice last year drove me crazy, and I\u2019m looking forward to the rematch.\n<\/p>\n<p>So let\u2019s cut the unbeaten talk.  It\u2019s barely October, and there is plenty of football left to be played.  Talk to me the week they\u2019re getting ready to face the Giants at the Meadowlands.  If they\u2019re 15-0 I\u2019ll be happy to get on the bandwagon for an undefeated regular season.  Otherwise talk to me about whoever they\u2019re playing this week.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>NORV OUT IN SAN DIEGO?<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nI think this may be the first time in quite a while you see a head coach get fired mid season.  Norv Turner has been absolutely atrocious so far as head coach in San Diego, and the lack of confidence in the coaching staff is apparently beginning to appear in the locker room.  Tony Dungy had a reputation of being terrible in the postseason but a great regular season coach, and finally got over the hump last year and lead Indianapolis to a Championship.  Apparently the Chargers front offense thought they were smarter than everyone else and went ahead and fired Marty Schottenheimer instead of giving him another shot.  I wouldn\u2019t be the least bit surprise if they fire Norv before the seasons over, especially if they are well below .500 by midseason.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>JENKINS CALLS OUT TEAM<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThings are getting pretty ugly in Carolina after Panthers defensive lineman Chris Jenkins called out his football team on Sunday after they lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  The Panthers are now 2-2 on the season, but are without quarterback Jake Delhomme who is battling an elbow injury and as a result are headed in the wrong direction.  Apparently Jenkins isn\u2019t ready to give up on the season, and feels that his team needs to show more \u201cheart\u201d on the field to get through the adversity they\u2019re now faced with.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;This is our issue as a team: As a team collectively, we have no heart. We have no energy. We have no drive,&#8221; Jenkins told reporters after the loss.  &#8220;Football is about pride and passion. I&#8217;m going to repeat that again. Football is about pride and passion. The pride and the passion that you have for this game makes you want to win.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nWell said.  But with David Carr as their back-up the Panthers may be in for a long season.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>SITE NEWS<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nComing soon to PatsFans.com will be a really easy way for fans to follow all the news around the National Football League for every football team.
