How will the New England Patriots perform in 2006?

F. Not only worse than last season, but I can see the Pats having an 8-8 year and missing the playoffs.  Brady is an icon, but he can only make so much out of nothing.  The Pats continue to let their talent walk away, and no one has been able to argue to this point... but it's a war of attrition, and I can't see the Pats continuing to win it this year.  Who has to leave for them to see the light?  Bruschi?  For their own sake, I hope its McGinest...

Go with New England bevause Detroit is going nowhere and the Pats are coming a great defensive game, besides Detroit put up 10 on Miami the Pats can'y do worse than that.

I pick the New England Patriots to win Super Bowl 39. Anything after that is up in the air at this point.

okok I'm going to nip this in the bud...New England is not going to the Super Bowl please stop hoping and (maybe) it wont hurt that much when they loss the next game.....and Yes denver is in SB contention..with a vetran offense line a qb having the best year of his career, a vet coach with two rings(that looks like G.Bush lol)two running backs that almost had a thousand yards(each)bell with 5.4 yards a carry...the broncos lead the nfl in time of poss and 4 down completion % AND THATS JUST THE OFFENSE ...as for not getting any reconition...the spotlight can only reach so far...if they win one more you'll hear more

I think the Bears are. The Pats are always so full of themselves. Grossman had two bad games, now he is in line for another 4 TD performance. The run game is coming on strong. The Pats defense is without 7 starters, or was last week. Brady is going to be eating mud all day, similar to when the Jets put pressure two weeks ago. Only, the Bears pressure is coming faster and stronger. I would not be suprised if Brady walks off the field crying because the Bears are going to tear him apart. Urlacher is going to steamroll him. Brady is the real overrated player.

Yes. They are performing above expectations. They have a tissue soft schedule the rest of the way. However they will only be 6th seed. They won't go far in the postseason either. Now if they were in the N.F.C. though?.

DEZZY 3:16 says that "haha the moment on truth ...the broncos will stomp the patriots 27-10....and all the pat fans shall scream in agony..and run back into their caves in boston...then root for the celtics once again"....i cant wait ima tape this A$$ whipping ...i record all those pat fans and people that support them ..when they go down...you will be under them...hehe

Super Bowl hangover, it happens to nearly all Super Bowl winners. Key free agent losses and the retirement of "The Bus" cost them a lot of the leadership they enjoyed last season. Injuries havent helped and the soap opera that was Big Ben over the summer certainly didnt help. They need to regroup and re- dedicate themselves to the goals they had last year and they will be fine. There is still plenty of talent wearing Steeler black.

well, with vinateri gone, the patriots dont have a clutch kicker anymore...plus they havent done much to fix last yrs awful defense...as long as tedy buschi is ok and tom brady returns to his dominant form, i expect them to win their division, but probably not the superbowl

I like chicago and Indy in the superbowl, with chicago winning it all. I think the patriots lack depth at wide reciever, and that might come back to hurt them in the playoffs.

Good for them...it's about time they have a powerhouse team after year after year of bad teams and no promising playoff runs.  They still have to get by the Pats though, who I think should be the favorite entering the playoffs.

Nope.  The Pats are pretty good, but they still have way to many defensive holes.  They have not beaten a great offensive team yet.  Granted they pitched a shut out to the Bucs, but they have very little on offense and they where a Florida team in New England

Yes, they have a three headed monster on offense (Palmer, R. Johnson, C. Johnson).  Plus the defense isn't to shabby either.  And with the decline of the Patriots, and the Colts getting rid of Eddgrin the "Bungles" are primed to do damage in this year.  I'll be puling for them to come out of the AFC.\n\nLOL !

i think they are a superbowl bound team. I am a big patriots fan theyve got all the makings of a dynasty and Brady btw is better then manning everytime u say the word "superbowl" Manning chokes.

As long as Brady and Belichek are there, the Pats will be dangerous.  But I think it's going to be hard to replace a money kicker like Adam Vinateri.
