RE: Will the New Eng. Patriots go undefeated?
Pats fan here. Grew up in Maine, college near Boston. I give them a 60% chance of going 19-0. Dolphins won last week so pressure is off them to win this week. Pats win that one. Giants likely a lock with the 5th seed so no reason to risk anything by playing all out. Shockey's done for the year and the rest of their receivers can't catch anything. Belichik will play the first team in the final game knowing he has a two week break and not wanting his starters to be off for three weeks. Pats have already beaten Colts, Steelers, and Chargers. But anything can happen. Injury to Brady, Moss, Vrabel will hurt. A couple turnovers or big plays against them could be the difference as well. But they seem to have gotten the benefit of a lot of breaks befitting a team of destiny.
Anyway, it will be a fun playoff season.
