I think we are lucky to be getting them on short rest traveling to our place. I don't want to see them make the playoffs. Hopefully Cousins reverts back to his old form. Barring that I that I think there will be 3 NFCE teams in the playoffs this year.
The NFCE is so good this year it will probably cost us the number 1 seed. If we manage to earn the number 1 seed, then the Super bowl will be a cakewalk. New England is lucky that Dallas, Seattle, Washington and New York are all on the other side of the bracket. There is little chance New England could easily beat two of them to advance to the Super Bowl and beat the third team to win it all. The Patriots are not the team to beat. They might be 4th or 5th at the writing of this post. They look quite vulnerable.
Belichick and Tom Brady have the experience of six Super Bowls compared to anyone playing or head coaching for Washington or Dallas. I doubt they would be worried about us or Washington.
They beat Seattle. New York would be the only team with a psychological advantage over New England with Eli having beaten Brady twice.
Oh, and the Patriots have never been blown out in a Super Bowl with Brady.
Don't sell them short.
