Seattle defense isn't as good as previous years and they can't run the ball. They're in big trouble.
Lynch sitting till playoffs he'll be ready to go well see how far they go can't count them out we have won some amazing playoff games

AFC championship: Bengals vs Chiefs
NFC championship: Panthers vs Cardinals
One of those two coming to Foxborough???? LOL. They might as well stay home. Pat's will have everyone back, and Brady will be getting rid of the ball like he did earlier in the year. Belichick will stop taking his "stupid pills" and snap out of it. Just my opinion.

Tough to scheme that OL. Everybody notices Edelman and Amandola, losing their 3rd LT right before the playoffs? Patriots are very compromised.

Patriots are the Patriots when it comes to
the playoffs, you can't count them out regardless

Hey, they win this week against the hapless (should say coachless ) Dolphins, they get 2 weeks to rest up and draw up new schemes.

Not counting them out, but the injuries have taken its toll. That offense is currently not meant to play a good defense. Can't run against a stout front and Brady gets very little time, he took his fair share of shots vs. Jets. It's not a typical Patriots season; they played their best in the beginning of the year - and it's all injuries.

Pats are in trouble with the teams in the AFC.....Bengals, Broncos, Jets, Chiefs are all the type of teams that give them trouble (Physical defensive teams that can run). They still have a good shot but their O-line is in shambles and you can't really scheme out of that. Quick passes only go so far with zero running game against these defenses
It's no surprise that Denver and the Jets were 2 of their losses this season.

It all depends on the match up. One thing is for sure, the Patriots do not want to see the Broncos or Jets again. Their O-line is completely decimated, and Brady is not going to have time to do his typical quick passes anymore. The books will be cashing in on Patriots future this year.
I can see any AFC team getting to the Superbowl since they all got a good defense. The Steelers would be the only one that don't have a D if they get in.

Steelers are dangerous with their offense but I never understood why people thought the Pats wanted them out and the Jets in.....Jets actually gave away the game earlier this season in Foxboro and then beat them in the rematch....They always play close games and the Jets defense has consistently done a good job containing that offense for years even if they lost a good amount of close ones
AFC is wide open IMO and the Pats are the one team that doesn't fit the mold so it should be interesting for sure
