I expected NE to win today......I didn't expect them to dominate.....McDaniels is calling a great game...Brady is choosing the right play......and NE's defense is playing like 85 Bears.....

This...plus playing at home.....they are practically unbeatable when that happens....

They put 31 on us...

I've been saying the same thing all week long...despite what we would love to believe, NE is a good football team and they rarely lose at home....I do think that if they win today, it all ends in KC next week.....

From a Brady point of view, yes, he is declining....he's still really good, but keep in mind that we are talking about what most expert and former player call the best ever...so, again, from that point of view, he's in decline....

I understand the 1-0 is referring to starting 1-5 and having the mentality of 1 game at a time.....but after the debacle of the 2014 AFC Finalist banner, it almost seem like the Colts are asking for it ....this is 2019...social media will absolutely crush you for that kind of stuff....

I don't remember seeing AV missing 2 kicks in the same game...it probably happened over his 18-19 seasons, but I don't remember...

Let's put it this way...it's a much better scenario than having the Colts go to Foxboro.....I'm not a betting person, but I would put $$ on the Chiefs vs NE in the AFCCG.....

I like what I'm seeing...AFCCG @ KC will prevent a SB involving NE....

Pot has been legal here ( Washington State) for quite some time ( 2012 ).....I don't smoke it myself, but know several people who do.....I don't think it changed a lot of things as far of quantity used.......when it 1st became legal, you probably had an increase of usage just for the novelty..... my pot smoking friends do complain about the legal weed being more expensive, but in general, they also say that the quality has improved.......I really don't see it as a big deal.....I see pot the same way I see booze....from what I hear however, you don't such a hangover after a night of smoking....maybe I should look into it.....

There's probably some truth in the above....but still made me pause a little....if they think it's not the answer.....and a waste of $$..........They're the one working there on a daily basis.....I put more weight in their comments than politician's....

Border Patrol Union website had a post saying " A wall would be a waste of tax payer's $$ "...seems like they go back and forth on the issue.....they do mention that a wall or a fence could help, but it does not address the main causes....and focusing on the symptoms.... https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/59v7k3/border-patrol-union-just-deleted-a-webpage-saying-a-wall-would-be-wasting-taxpayer-money

Brady has 5 already.....Good news is, they aren't good enough this year for #6.....

I have a soft spot for the Bears...that was brutal....great game but...like a punch in the gut...

If KC hosts the CG, I think they beat the Pats.....if Indy goes to Foxboro, I'm afraid you are correct....

It didn't seem to bother them too much today...although NE in Foxboro will be a much greater challenge....

Chiefs will have a full day of extra rest for the AFCCG...I'll take it.....

Neither the Chargers or the Ravens beat NE in Foxboro.....Our real hope is KC at KC. If somehow, Indy pulls a rabbit out of the hat and win next week, we'll end up with NE in another SB.....

I've lived north of Seattle most of my life....There was a huge jump in fandom when they went to the SB vs Pitt.....and again since Wilson has arrived...now, don't get me wrong, any team who has a good season or get a very good QB will see their fan #s go up....so Seattle is not different in that aspect.....but there's definitely band wagoners.....my problem is more about the way they act and see their team....you'd think you're dealing with fans from Dallas, Pittsburgh or even NE.....win more than 1 before comparing your team to the best in NFL history....Hey, Seattle.....you have 1 trophy....not 7.....Bucs fan have as much to brag about than you...lol..

I disagree...the Seachicken fans are unbearable.....the Dynasty crowning came right after their SB win......and trust me, there's absolutely been a huge band wagon effect in Washington State... I can't stand that team and their arrogant fans....

NE x 2, Jets x 2, Fish x 2, Giants, Redskins, Cowboys, Eagles, Browns, Steelers, Bengals, Ravens, Broncos, Ten/Indy.... Going to be an EPIC season.....

Cleveland went from 0-16 to 7-8-1.....quite the improvement....they'll be a good team for a while....

Cleveland keeping it close....

The only thing I don't like is that NE has beaten lots of playoffs teams already this year.....they beat Houston...beat KC.....beat Chicago....beat the Colts ( if they make it )......beat Minny ( if they make it )......looks like Pitt is cooked....the only loss came vs Tennessee...all they have to do is win at home after a week off to go to the Championship game.....they don't lose often at home with 2 weeks to heal and rest....no matter who the opponent is....

In the NFC, it's the Bears for me...they're my 2nd team...if there's such a thing....
