Pats got it done

[Got Stripers]

Mile high curse is behind us and the D is looking like they are ready for the playoffs. Now if they can just clinch home field throughout, I can see another super bowl appearance in our future.

I hope so. I've had a lot of reservations on this team this season because they don't have a really tough schedule but they are beating most of the tougher teams they face.

They lost to the Bills GM4 (b4 Brady) and the Seahawks in WK10

I am concerned that the offense has broken past 30 points in the second half of the season, where they had 4 times in the first half of season (including one of the b4 Brady return).

I am encouraged that this mediocre defense has for the most part kept opponents below 20 PPG

Yeah, it definitely looked like a classic "defensive battle".

There were a number of close games yesterday, some with the "underdogs" coming out on top.
