Who am I worried about? Same as every year..... Only Baltimore.
Jets, Miami and Buffalo are all disasters. The Jets are a pathetic disgrace of a franchise. The Texans are right there with Atlanta as the biggest frauds in the NFL. Denver beats bad teams. Peyton has won maybe 3 big games his entire career. They may be incorrect, but he has lost a lot more big games then he has won. Pats have a ton of draft picks again. Gronk will be healthy. They will be odds on to win the AFC again.
Take nothing away from Baltimore. They beat NE in Baltimore this year. They could have beat us in the playoffs last year. Great great football team.
Oldest QB to win Super Bowl is Elway at 38. Brady turns 36 prior to start of next season. I think at most you have 2-3 years at which point we see how great a coach Belichick really is.

He did a terrible job last night before the half. Squandered a good chance at getting 7 versus walking away with only 3.

But, its Hard to argue about him as a coach and all that he's accomplished. He was a poor Tom Brady pass away from winning another championship last year.

That was terrible before the half. They haven't gotten over the hump since they stopped filming the other team, coincidence? I didn't think so but I'm not sure anymore.

I think the real reason is Brady is soft. He won't take the hit to make the play anymore. Once he gets hit a few times his QB rating gets cut in half. That just throwing the ball away on 4th down instead of running was laughable. I hope someone calls him out on it.

I don't buy into the filming nonsense either. They were basically 2 plays away from having 2 more rings (thankfully those plays broke against them. )

Totally agree about Brady. He was short arming balls all night not wanting to step up in the pocket and take the hit. Unfortunately the fallout against Tom will most likely be minimal.

Is it BYOW? Sorry, I couldn't resist. Ray and Super Bowl parties don't always mix well.

Like I said. I believe they will get back to at least 1. Bradys age does not change the rest of the AFC. The thing that worries me the most is the number of young athletic dynamic QB's in the NFL right now. Wilson, Kapernick and RG3 are all 100% legit guys. Cam Newton is still very good. Rodgers is still the best QB in the league. They are all in the NFC though. Im still taking Brady over Peyton, Luck and that fraud from Houston. Flacco is a guy I have always believed in and I have took a lot of crap about right here. This might be his year right now. The team around him is old though. They will still be a force, and likely my Pats main competition for at least the next 2 years. Kansas City could be the shock team. I think they will be much improved.
