New England Patriots are, by far, the best in NFL right now

Unfortunately, the Saints road to the Superbowl this year may be on the road. Don't see us overtaking Atlanta with their remaining schedule.

And the Patriots may stumble in the playoffs.

 

As much as I like the Packers, and as much as I gotta be behind our boy Matt, I just don't see it happenin. I hope it does, but I think Matts inexperience is just too big of a hurdle for the Packers to overcome against the Pats.

 

Well, we're banged up to hell. Flynn will get his first start. Pats rarely lose at home. The chips are majorly stacked against us this week. But there's good news. Winning this game isn't particularly important where the division is concerned. It has bigger potential significance in the wildcard chase, but not the division.

The only game that really matters much this week is the Bears and Vikings. If the Bears win, it doesn't matter if we beat the Pats, the division is theirs. If they lose, it doesn't matter if we lose to the Pats, we will once again be in charge of our own destiny. I guess we'll see if Wilf's Joe Webb experiment is a success or not. The Vikes can win that game if their defense shows up.

If Rodgers was going to miss a game down the stretch, this would be the one you'd want. It could actually work in Flynn's favor. Knowing that most people aren't expecting him to win this game, it could take some pressure off of him and he may end up playing much better than expected and pull out the win... if our defense does its job.

 

I believe they will get to the Super Bowl no problem. The Super Bowl itself can go any way. Give an underdog 2 weeks to prepare and they will be ready. The NFC champ won't be a chump. Should be a great game as long as the Patriots don't listen to the media tell them how great they are.
