That's why you play the games. No one knows who's going to turn the ball over or when the Pats may fall off a cliff.

I'll take a gander, the Pats will fall off a cliff when Brady and Belichick retire. They laid the foundation for their entire culture. Until then they could start 0-5 and I'd still think they could be in the playoffs.

If my memory serves me right Belichick has always treated the first 4 regular season games like preseason. They have been 2-2 in September quite a few times, then finish with 12 or more wins.

Pats have been starting slow the last few years...they lost to the Lions last year...are we better than the Lions? Of course, under Jay...Skins have started slow as well.

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said he expects tight end Jordan Reed to be available for the season opener at Philadelphia. Reed entered the concussion protocol after a hit in Thursday's preseason win at Atlanta. "We're quite confident that Jordan will be fine," Gruden said. That's good news for a team whose passing game revolves largely around Reed.

And when isn't Gruden overly optimistic about players coming back from injury? Also concussions usually have a cumulative effect. The more you get the easier you get them and the longer the effects last.

That was my thought exactly. Game day if Reed isn't ready, Gruden will simply say Well ahhh you know concussions are a tricky thing, and we don't want him rushing onto the field.

Later when it's found out they tried to rush him on the field, it will be, Well ahh Jordan is a gamer, and wanted to get in for the team, but the docs had to do what they had to do.

In the class action lawsuit, Gruden will be like, Well ahh Bruce Allen and DS ahh were my bosses, and I ahh went with their instructions and ahh we just wanted to win those games for the fans.

Ha! That is hilarious and true.
Someone should start a thread on predictions on how many games Reed plays this season. Then Gruden will say, nobody could have seen that coming.
