There is nobody who can stop Emperor Belichick. Together we shall destroy all who oppose us. You fools do not understand the true power of the Darkside.

I think that either the Ravens or Steelers can beat the Patriots in the regular season. Both teams have good defenses that are capable of keeping the Pats from running up the score. In lower scoring games, anyone can win. If I had to pick just one game though, I like the Steelers. The defense can get pressure on Brady and the secondary is one of the best. The Steelers also can put points on the board, and with tall receivers they won't have drives stall in the red zone.
In the playoffs I think that they'll need to watch out for the Colts. The Pats only won that game by 4 pts and the Colts were without their starting left tackle (who protects Manning's blindside) and one of the greatest receivers in the game (Marvin Harrison). If the Colts are healthy when they next meet, the Pats could find themselves on the wrong end of a close game.
The game that no one is talking about, but I think could be worriesome for the Pats, is if the play either the Packers or Giants in the Superbowl. Both teams have excellent defensive lines that get after quarterbacks. The Giants are currently the NFL's team sack leader and the Packers led the NFL in sacks last year. That is key because Brady showed on Sunday that if you can get pressure on him, he'll look human.

I think the Steelers or the Colts can beat the Patriots in the playoffs. Anyone can beat them in the regular season, but it will take a great game from Indy or Pittsburgh to give the Pats a run for their money. There's no doubt that the Patriots are #1, but they can be knocked down.

I think as the season progress' they will get beat but not by a team we think has a good chance like the Steelers but probably by a team we would expect them to roll over like the Bills or Jets.
They are likely to come out flat and have more mistakes than usual and the other team will have their best game of the year and surprise them. It would probably help them a lot because I think the pressure will mount more and more and I don't think they would want that kind of pressue entering the playoffs. Expectations are one thing but undefeated expectations are something know team has felt in the playoffs in 35 years..

Well, the Steelers might be a good game...but they're not as good as the Colts, so I don't think the Pats will lose that one...but that would be the game to watch at this point...If the Pats win that one, I think the only way they lose is when they rest the starters after clinching home field...
The Jets aren't gonna beat the Pats...*L*...You don't piss off the HOODED ONE and get away with it...Dungy didn't (when he said the Pats videotape thing put a black eye on the NFL season)...Mangini hadn't reported Belichick to the NFL the first time around...Now, Mangenious is going down harder than he did in round 1...

The Steelers and the Giants at the end of the season could possibly pose a threat.

Are you basing your question on regular season or playoffs too? Because if they go 16-0 and lose in the playoffs, it means nothing. I absolutley (No, I'm not a Colts fan), think Indy can beat them. Indy slashed their own throats in that game. They outplayed New England for 45 minutes of 60. I wouldn't write the Colts off yet in a rematch. But as far as people saying the Steelers, no chance.
