If they play like they have shown the can, against the Steelers.....Absolutly....
If they bring that weak game they have been playing, it will be a VERY steep climb.....

It doesn't matter. The goal is to make the playoffs and eventually the Super Bowl. The only team to win a super bowl and finish the entire season undefeated were the '72 Dolphins. All the other Super Bowl winning teams had 1 or more loss. You do not have to be undefeated to win a Super Bowl but, I still think that the pats will go undefeated. GO PATRIOTS!!!!

The Dolphins went undefeated in 1972 but they were 14-0. So if the Pats do go undefeated they would be the first NFL team to win 16 straight games in a row in a regular season.

Nope, they will lose to the Steelers this weekend. They already came close to losing to the Eagles and Ravens these past couple of weeks so we know the Patriots are not as invincible as everybody thinks they are. The Pats won those games because the opponents were not good enough to beat them, but the Steelers are good enough. The Pats are wearing down and I think the Steelers will bring them back to earth by beating them 27-24.

Their last two games where real nail bitters against non playoff teams (eagles, ravens). Granted they still won, but If they play like that against the steelers or the giants, it would have been a different story. They need their second wind, or I have severe doubts.

No. I mean they already have a playoff spot locked up and as soon as they have home field they will rest players. They have a lot of guys up there in age and it only makes sense to have them fresh for the playoffs. So I think they will be very vulnerable and lose a late season game, if not this weekend. I think Pittsburgh has a shot to beat them on even ground.

yes.
here why...
Everyone is saying the past 2 teams (eagles/ravens) have found the "formula" to beating them. Well guess what? Following that formula has gotten both a L. hmmm wonder why....
I mean the Patriots are SO dominant that ppl are getting very excited at a NEAR Pats loss (ESPN). I mean come on. They wont lose.

They won't be the first, just the first in a long time. I was praying my Ravens would finish them off, but of course they did not. And the Eagles tried. I hope someone beats there a**, but if the Ravens didn't who will?
