    Can anyone beat the Pats?
    This team reminds me so much of the 2001 team. The take away to turn overs ratio.
    Brady and Bellichuk are primed. Any arguments? I'm thinking of blowing my load on the Pats to win it all.

      GB almost beat them with their back-up QB...

      So, the answer is YES...

      I'd make the Pats the favorites, but they are no means unbeatable...

        The defense will fail them at least once in the playoffs, just enough to cost them the game.

          They look to be well rounded. Fared much better than jj and the statdork guy said they would after trading Moss. Believe those 2 had Pats finishing just around .500.

          Colts, Ravens or Chiefs could give them a good game. They beat Jax, Jets and Steelers with ease.

              Maybe Baltimore or Pittsburgh. But New England does look like the best team right now.

                Going to be tough to go up to NE and beat them at home. Nothing fazes Brady. Maybe some team can repeat what the Giants did, but NE has to be the favorite.

                  Brady said after the Bears game that they could only beat themselves. Which is 100% true and really thats the only way I can see this team losing. Pats defense is beatable but when you have such an explosive offense its really tough to beat.

                  The old saying goes "Defense wins championships" but for some reason its been more because offense that teams are winning championships.

                    Ravens and Colts can hang with the Pats in the playoffs.

                      "Hanging" with a team and actually beating someone are two completely different things.

                        And they played the Bills.
                        Not anything to be impressed over.

                            Same could be said about the Falcons i'm guessing?

                              Pats are looking great right now, and they are a little banged up. They will be getting back Brandon Spikes for the playoffs, which will be huge. They've had injuries on the D line, but they will have that sorted out by playoff time.

                              Would love to see them win it, but any team is capable of winning it all, especially with the parity this year

                                I dont think so, Pats are too good right now, they are gonna take it all.

                                best part is they blow everyone out so I get paid all day!

                                    No I agree, the Bills are not or never have been a very impressive team. How about beating Baltimore, San Diego and the Pack, as well as thumping the Steelers, the Jets and the Bears since the middle of Oct. Brady and Bellichuk seem to be unbeatable at home, especially in winter months. Brady just doesn't turn the ball over, and the no name defense keeps giving him the ball with field position. 2001 over again. You don't have to listen to me though, I made a lot of cash off a bunch of nobodies, Brady and Bellichuk in '01. Think I will again.
                                    O, the Bills, the Pats are forced to play and beat them twice a year, same division.

                                        I think we'll have to wait to see if someone can beat them!

                                        But for now they just seem unstoppable!

                                        Anything can happen! But I'll be rooting for the Pats!

                                          The Patriots Secondary is pretty horrendous, and Brady is bound to slip up sooner or later.

                                                Best team in the NFL, but that doesn't mean their a lock to win it all, just the best chance.

                                                    Eagles and Saints can beat them.

                                                    Even the Ravens if they can make the same plays like in the last playoffs.

                                                      I don't think the Pats will make it to the playoffs. If the game is in the Bronx then they won't win
