They could go all the way
Sweet, so sweet. I have a bunch of anti Pats here in the office and all I hear now is silence.

How about that last play. Only feet from victory for the Ravens and the clock ran out. Another close one. Another blue print.

Didn't see the game, just had the computer on ESPN. It's 8 a.m.ish here in Iraq and I'm at work.

Great game! If I were a Patsy though, I'd count myself lucky, real lucky. I suspect Mr. Belichick (sp) is less than happy to be the team that made Baltimore's heretofore anemic offense look potent. Pittsburgh next week. It'll be the third week in a row they face a 3-4 defense-should be must see TV. This is the part of the year where weather starts to create funny bounces and odd things happen, and the winning get's tougher. From at least the offense's side of the ball, this team sure looks like the one with the best shot at pulling off the second perfect season. And their defense ain't chopped liver, either. It'll be interesting-glad I got the football package on Direct TV so I can bounce around from game to game.

I've been a Pat's fan since the day's of Steve Grogan (80's). They are of course, unstoppable. The problem is the defensive play and coaching. How else do you explain otherwise anemic offensives walking down field like Philly and B'more just did?
The thing to remember, as a Pat fan, is that they have already gone with 21 straight wins (the longest streak ever, period, bar none), what's 19-0 but a shorter goal?

Sailaway-
The weather is a good point, and the Pats are something like 15-3 in 34˚ and below... so, it is likely to get better for the Pats... 
Phallo's just a sore loser... all the teams video tape when they shouldn't be... the Pats got caught... and are currently the guys everyone wants to pick on because they're just jealous.

Lets be honest here. the Pats really didn't do anything more than graciously accept the gift the Ravens gave them. In the end the Pats get the W, which is all that really matters. However you want to look at it, they were 1 penalty away from losing.
Not being a fan of either team, it was fun to watch!! ( GO BEARS!! )

For all the hype about the Pats, the reality is they have squeaked by a number of games this year with less than convincing victories and when you consider they won their 3 or 4 superbowl games by a total of 12 points, coupled by the allegations of cheating, it kind of colors their actual acheivement. And yes, I am a Pats fan.
