I need to know what everyone thinks so I can fade the consensus. Thanks. Right now the line is 10.

I'm laying off this game, save a 3 team 10 pointer - where I have NE.
I just don't see how Pitts can win. They are missing their one true game-breaker on D, in Polamalu. NE will be able to generate enough pressure on D to make some plays and generate some turnovers.
While I love the way Lebeau calls his Defense - Brady is too good a QB. I think they can confuse him a couple of times into picks (probably 1 or 2), but overall, NE plays too smart and methodical on Offense, taking a page out of the Manning playbook of 'taking what the D gives you'.
I think Pitts has about a 30% chance to cover if NE had a loss, making the Pats a cinch of a pick... But with the undefeated thing on the line, it's too grey of an area to give up that many points. There's too many 'intangibles' for me to pull the trigger.
I don't see how the Pats lose, though.
