Well, as a Pat's fan I am surprised we are where we are with our defense.
The game with Denver, it was like the Pats didn't even exist -- the hype with Tebow. Whatever, at least that nonsense will stop for a while. Maybe it will start all over again next year, but I hope not. I'm sorry, Tebow is no HOF QB, and never will be. I will go to the bank on that one.
As for the Pats this past game with Denver, they said OK we are putting up a run defense, and try to throw on us. And even with our lousy defense, it worked out pretty good. That will not happen with the Ravens, it is going to be one tough game, the kind of team that gives the Pats trouble. Should be an interesting game to watch. If Brady is not pressured too much, I think we have a good shot at it. That IS the key to the game.
If, and I say if, we meet up with the Giants in the SB, I think Brady will be going in with a much different mindset, and for sure we will be the underdog. In 2007, nobody could beat us - well, how did that work out? Same with GB this year, well, how did that work out?
But the San Fran vs. Giants game should be a good one. I kind of discounted the Niners, but that was one amazing win against the Saints. I didn't give them a chance in that game, so much for that thought.
And let the games begin ----
