    the only thing I'll say is that it's week 3 ...

    in 2001, after week 3, did ANYONE thing the Patriots would be the superbowl champs?

    last year after week 3, did ANYONE think the Giants would be the superbowl champs?

    long way to go.

    See that Ponc? And I made the comment right after the Pats beat the Jets when the fanbase was in their even more than usual full gloating arrogant glory..and still with the embarrassing loss to the former Jet Chad and the lonely Dolphins, which had little to nothing to do with Brady, there is still considerably more annoying arrogant disillusioned fans who believe the Pats will cheat their way into another Super Bowl win than the 1% you estimated ;)..

    hey, lugnut ...

    1) it's not just the Pats, it could be ANYONE that wins this years superbowl ... my point is it is too early to rule anyone in or out (well, except maybe the Chiefs)

    2) I was NEVER arrogant re:The Pats after the Jets win (I don't tihnk any of us were claiming "Superbowl" after that win) ... I only wanted to call out the Jets fans that thought it would be a cake walk win for the Jets

    Don't put words in my mouth ...

    No need to get tough and/or personal. And I see what you did there, very clever changing the 'a' to 'u' to spell 'chump.' Great job by you :)..and if you had read my post/reply appropriately, you would have realized that my statement was not specifically directed at you...but rather it correctly encompassed/described the majority of the pompous and arrogant cheating Patriot fans ;)..

    can you find any patriots fans that were clammoring for a superbowl run after the jets game?

    I never said clammoring or anything of the sort, but many are still disillusioned in their thinking that the Pats have a shot at the Super Bowl this year. Poncier suggested that 99% of the fanbase currently realize that the Pats will not win the Super Bowl, and the very best they could achieve is perhaps making the playoffs. I then pointed out that there are significantly more than just 1% of arrogant/pompous fans who still believe otherwise and feel a Super Bowl run is not out of the question. So who is correct in their assessment??

    Oh good Lord Earle, my words don't need to be 'straight.' Just having a little poke at the expense of the cheating Patriots and their fans<--is that better? :)..you know, similar to your bright green loving words of encouragement on the Jets thread ;)..

    The Chargers ... the Pats are staying here on the west coast all week, not heading back to NE.

    Defense shaped up in the 2nd half ... running game looked real good (granted, it WAS the 49ers) ... and Cassell seemed to get more confidence as the game went on ... he's still no Brady ...

    Got a feeling a savvy secondary like the Chargers might fool him into a pic or two next week, but, still, they don't look that hot right now either.

    Chargers are going to be a desperate team, this is almost a must-win for them, 2 and 4 is a deep hole to get out of to make the playoffs. Especially with the Bills, Colts, Steelers, and Saints still on the schedule, plus the division leading Broncos.

    Maybe staying out west and getting away from NE foe a week will help their confidence on both sides of the ball. I predict a surprise win here, I hope it's on tv here in DC.

    17-3 but they have 1st and goal on the one ... chance to get back in it ...

    not only are they stuffed, but san diego storms right down for a TD ...

    oooooooof, 2nd game in a row on the west coast, not treating them well. I knew when the scedule came out, these 4 west coast games were going to suuuuuuuck.

    Cassel needs to gt rid of the ball faster! and Marooney needs to stay healthy.
    Go with the no-huddle offense...

    It's the defense that's really pissin' me off!
    Like I said earlier, they're just too damn old. :mad:

    and Delta O'Neal sucks!
