Couple things:
I hate how commentators can’t stop sucking Tom Brady off. Yes, he’s ‘pretty.’ Yes, he is very fucking good (I mean really fucking good). Despite his appearance he’s extremely tough, can take a hit etc. BUT HE IS NOT THE ONLY REASON THE TEAM IS GOOD. That O-line is damn good. He has ALL DAY to throw the ball a lot of the time. And the players around him are no slouches. I’m sick and tired of talking heads saying he’s the best thing since sliced bread.
NE fans suck. Especially one of my good friends whose a bandwagoning bastard.
Since the pats are already ‘one of the best teams ever’ (and they are), if they lose… what does that mean?
The Pats look really vulnerable to a couple of teams. Basically a team with a strong running game to keep that offense off the field, a hellatious (sp?) pass rush, and a hard nose secondary that can push those recievers around seem like they could grind out a win.
My Chargers will come up with the biggest upset in NFL history.[/quote]
To answer your question what happens if they lose (in my oppinion) then it’s just like any other season where you don’t win a super bowl: it’s a failure. A perfect regular season is just a stat record, nothing more.
I don’t see the chargers going far in the playoffs this year. The only team they beat that is heading into the playoffs is the colts and I’d call that the reason they won’t go far. You can argue they won that game, but it was pathetic. They won by two points with Manning throwing SIX interceptions. If the end score is +2 points with 6 turnovers… I’d say something is seriously wrong. Their defense can’t match up with a good receiving core and their passing game is practically non-existent.
You throw together the fact that Tom Brady is without a doubt the most “clutch” player in the league, his new receiving core and defensive additions, but most importantly the team plays SIXTY MINUTES of football and I think they can’t be stopped.
Tom Brady took them to the AFC championship game last year with one of the leagues worst receiving cores… what do you think he’s going to do this post season?
And gatesoftanhauser… what’s with every football thread that I read you always seem to comment on how the commentators (regardless of which broadcast station) have major “fellatio” for someone. Did you figure out what that word meant this season and now feel you need to take advantage of your ever growing vocabulary?
