Patriots keep on winning
NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
The Steelers were hopping mad. There were fights breaking out in that game. The Steelers fully expected to win that game and did not like being knocked around and beat up and outscored.
“I may be completely wrong and crazy by saying this — and I’m not trying to say they’re old — but when you drive down the field and get momentum on them, they’re bending,” Roethlisberger said after the Steelers’ 34-13 loss to unbeaten New England. “Because they’re such a smart, veteran team, by the time you put together a long drive, they’ve figured out a way to stop you.” source
Now the Patriots face a pretty easy schedule.
They have the Jets and Miami at home and then the Giants on the road. The Jets are 3-10 and Miami is 0-13. The Giants, on the other hand, are 9-4 and have played in a tough division with Dallas, Washington, and Philadelphia.
A lot of people seem to think that Giants game could be problematic. The Giants are a very good team, but not a great team. Yahoo Sports Power Poll with Cole and Robinson have the Giants ranked 9th and 10th respectively with the Patriots 1st in both polls.
So why should it be a problem? Well, some think the Pats may rest certain players for the playoffs. My own thoughts are that with an unbeaten season on the line, only players banged up may not play and if Randy Moss and Tom Brady play, then the Patriots will win this game.
Although many are pointing to the final game with the Giants, it is hard to see the Patriots not motivated to win that game.

The Jets could be the biggest threat given how the Pats played against the Eagles and Ravens. They raised their game against the Steelers but were less impressive in the two previous. I’m still looking forward to a perfect season and the luxury of the second overall pick in the 2008 draft.
