could it happen?

Question

The pats really need to watch themselves these next weeks.

First they're playing the jets, who got this whole cheating idea started to begin with. There's no love lost between mangina and belichick, and the whole pats organization has an axe to grind for becoming the most hated team ever. If you don't think that one's going to get ugly you've got another thing coming.

Then, they're up against the Miami, who has the perfect season record. If they make it past the jets, miami's going to be one fired up team. Miami was the last regular season loss the pats had, and it was a 21-0 disgrace. Any Given Sunday.

The giants could be playing for a playoff spot, so that's one to watch also, and if the pats make it by the jets and the fins, they'll have the extra motivation of beating the 'undefeated' team.

What do _you_ think. I'm not really interested in any answers related to cheating. That's last years news.

Answer 1

I WILL SUM IT ALL UP IN ONE WORD

"UNDEFEATED"

Answer 2

NO, they could have lost to a few teams this year - but these next 3 won't be it.

1) Jets stink, and the NE players are fired up to humiliate them. They aren't looking ahead or at 16-0. NE will win decisively (though may not cover 27 points). And out of the 3 games, the Jets are actually the MOST likely to give them a run.

2) Miami simply doesn't have the talent right now to beat NE on 'any given' sunday. No Brown, no Thomas, no vet QB = no chance in Hell. They can be as fired up as they want, they simply don't have the tools to pull it off.

3) NYG will be cemented into the 5 spot with nothing to gain and no bye week before travelling to TB for a playoff game. Starters will maybe play half a game. It would be nice to kncok off a 15-0 team (they beat 13-0 Denver in 1998), but the playoff game will be more important. Zero chance of Plax playing, probably not Jacobs either since he gets hurt every other week.

Answer 3

I don't think they'll lose any of them. My reasoning:

Jets - If there's any team Belichick wants to stomp into the ground, it's these guys. They're the ones who got the whole Spygate ball rolling, and you know they want to teach Mangini and his boys a lesson. I can't see Clemens having any success against New England's pressure.

Dolphins - No matter how fired up they are, they can't beat the Pats with Lemon/Beck in the quarterback position. Despite parity in the NFL, the talent gap between these two is just too enormous. Even a bad game by the Pats would be enough to beat Miami.

Giants - The Giants only need one win in their last three games to clinch a playoff spot. Chances are they'll have clinched by the time this game rolls around, and it will just be an exhibition/warmup game for them. I can't see them playing their starters for too long, whereas I'll bet the Pats do if they're 15-0 coming in.

At this point, I'd be shocked to see anything less than 16-0. I think the Pats have had their scare games, and will now run the table.

Answer 4

well if the pats beat the jets they have teh division locked up with homefield throughout the playoffs so who cares maybe brady wont even play more then a quarter against miami and the giants! Think about it is it worth it for the pats to have tom brady take a bad hit or just sit him and take a loss to the gmen?? I mean in reality what would you do let tom get taken out or save him for the playoffs! I think the jets game the pats run up the score to piss mangini off! As for miami and gmen who knows because you do not know who will even play or who wont! Maybe belicheck feels he has something to prove after spygate and he says we are going for 16-0 and plays brady you never no what will happen!!

Answer 5

I dont think the Jets are even gonna give them a game. The Pats will be fired up for that one, they went after Coach Belichick and his players love him. They'll be out for revenge, especially Moss who seems grateful to Belichick for giving him the opportunity to play in New England.

Miami - Pats always struggle @ miami, but miami also tends to struggle @ new england so I dont know what will happen, the Pats will lock up the AFC Already but I really think the Pats backups could proably still beat miami anyways.

Same with the giants, hard to say what will happen.

Answer 6

I think they will win out....

They have too much talent for either the Jets of the Dolphins, and the Giants may rest their banged up players since they should wrap up the #5 seed next week and will have nothing to play for.

It doesn't make the Pats the best team ever, but it does say a lot to beat everyone on your schedule, including the other three division leaders.

Answer 7

The Giants look like they will have the number 5 spot wrapped up and any chance of getting better than 5 or worse than 5 may be slim. I suspect they will have little to actually play for and since they do not have a week off f in the playoffs, I think a number of players will get rested later in the game.

The only motivation they may have is to interrupt the perfect record for the Patriots and I think they would be more concerned about getting players a little time off to be healthier for the playoffs.

Answer 8

Completely agree...On paper, it would seem to be a pretty soft schedule to finish out the year..Especially with 2 of the 3 being in Foxboro and the 3rd only a short distance away....

But the jets...I doubt it...

Miami...Have been smacking Super Bowl winning NE teams around for years...(Glad we took Welker away from them, that will help :) )..But they will be FIRED up to beat them, not only for themselves, but for their organization and the '72 record....

The Giants are not a great team. but they are certainly at the level of the Eagles and Ravens...We all saw how that almost went.....

Alot of fans may be crowing, but I doubt that the NE players will take ANYTHING lightly......

Answer 9

Pray to God continuously mutually as attempting, as God facilitates people who help themselves extremely than people who're lazy. Lord Krisna suggested in Bhagavad Gita, we could carry out our works and resign the fruit of our action. So we could shop attempting and discover excitement in doing our artwork, whether or not we get the needed result. we could continuously not lose desire. Do your superb and pass away something to God,that is going to all come suited some day or evening.

Answer 10

I dont see the pats losing to miami and NY, sorry.

As for the giants, the pats may lose that one simply because belichek will remove his starters at the beginning of the 2nd half.

Answer 11

You asked I'll answer! What do I think? I think that Bill Belichick is the most arrogant, unfriendly, unsportsman like person in the entire NFL today. For this reason I just can't stand the Pats.
