2.) Bill Belichick's arrogance. He is extremely impatient with his offense and his lack of conservatism will cost him on the road one of these weeks.
3.) No established run game. The Pats could have taken control of the game with more runs on the Goal line during the first drive.
4.) Injuries. The Pats have had only one legitimate injury (Colvin), the injuries will come...and probably at the worst possible time.
5.) The Pittsburgh Steelers. This team will fight till the utter end at home in bad conditions.
6.) Clinch the #1 seed. Pats will clinch homefield and have much less to play for.
PS The Ravens (although I hate them) really showed a lot of heart last night. Ray Ray, Willis, and Ed played unbelievable games as they were honoring #21. They were obviously very heartbroken with the way the redskins couldnt pull out a victory for Sean. They took it upon themselves to do JUST THAT...and the referees and Raven's coaches defeated them in the end...just sickening.
But your thoughts on the pat's undefeated chances.

1. The Pats win in cold weather all the time. They won at Pittsburgh a few years ago and it was cold as hell.
2. BB isn't impatient. He is just confident in his offense. wouldn't you be if The Skins were putting up the numbers they were?
3. The Pats can run it if they want to. They just don't care to.
4. Since when can you predict the future? Plus The Pats have quality depth.
5. I'm sure they will fight. But they lost to The Jets and almost lost to a winless Miami team AT HOME. Pittsburgh can't touch The Pats.
6. You might be right here. But I doubt it. BB isn't going to rest anyone. He's trying to prove a point this year.
The Refs had nothing to do with the Balt. losing. Although I was rooting for Balt. they self destructed and they beat themselves with stupid coaching. The call on Watson was a good call. You can't touch the wr after 5 yards. I've seen worse calls then that.
