Laughable or Plausible?

The confidence in this Patriots team seams to be at an all time high in the print media, the broadcast media and of course in the talk show callers. Suddenly the secondary has come together and we're putting pressure on the quarterbacks and we're shutting down the run, Faulk & Dillon are back and the offense has been awesome. The Pats look like a DYNASTY again. Enough already.

If you name the 5 worst teams in football you'd probably include Buffalo and the J.E.T.S. jets jets jets. I would just like to remind everyone that the patriots beat the Bills and Jets over this 'marvelous' run of 2 wins in a row that the Pats are on. The Bills have packed it in, and the Jets might have the worst O in football.

That being said, Belichick is FINALLY letting the boys lose on Defense. They are running stunts and 5,6,or 7 man blitzes. They've caused turnovers! It remains to be seen if the turnovers are a result of the blitz or the way poor teams react to the blitz.

I'm just trying to get everyone back to reality here. The Pats are still 2-5 v. teams with a record north of .500. This weeks game would prove a little bit more that the Pats are for real, however keep in mind that Tampa Bay has NEVER won a game in tempuratures below 35 degrees. So a blow out win still won't convince me. In fact the Pats probably won't really be tested until the first round of the playoffs and even then we're looking at a Florida team trying to come up here and win in VERY wintery January conditions.

Some positive things that are happening that you should be excited about:
-Faulk is back and might have the best hands of any RB in the NFL
-Dillon is at least enough of a threat to run that play action works
-Rosie Colvin is REALLY coming back into form
-Seymour has been put in spots to be disruptive and he has been.
-Tom Brady is the best player in the NFL
-Tom Brady is the best player in the NFL
-Tom Brady is the best player in the NFL
-Brady and Belichick are undefeated together in the playoffs.
-As long as Tom Brady is around the Pats can win against anyone anywhere.

It is laughable to say that this team is back to dynasty form, but if it comes down to one game in Peyton's place, it is plausible the Pats win. I certainly wouldn't bet against the Pats in that game.
