The Pats

Good Lord was that offense awesome or what. That hurry up destroyed Miami's defense, it was laughable.

Heck they looked totally awesome! They always seem to look unstoppable....fantastic Coaching off the field and awesome leadership on the field.

Dion Branch................Hey Mills guess where he played college ball, here's a hint it wasn't in Hooterville, lmao.

On a serious note Don, do you think any Defense in the league can stop that high powered offense? It looked completely off the chart to me......Wow..

Detroit done a pretty good job at it a few weeks ago. They play SD next week, if NE puts it on them (they won't) like they did miami, then it will be impressive.

Keep in mind that they had a hard time with miami's less than potent offense as well, River's will light them up.

It's gonna be fun to watch and I'll try my best to catch every game just for that reason. Based on last nights performance....it will take a serious defense to stop them. I know someone will and Detroit has a great chance of getting to Brady. It's an awesome time of year!

Ugh, don't know if my Dolphins are that bad or if the Pats are that good. Guess we'll see in the next few weeks.

The Fins D just got shredded and the O didn't really do anything until the game was out of reach so I'm a little worried.

Now that the first week of the season is in the books I will go ahead and pick Green Bay vs. New England in the Super Bowl as long as everyone stays healthy.

The Dolphins ??Defense?? Helped the Pats look that good. Grant it, Brady and the Pats offense is pretty good but that was not the Buddy Ryans Bears 46 Defense. UK could have scored 17 against the Fins Defense.

That's sounds like a pretty good prediction.

I think both of those teams are all hype. Green Bay won't make the NFCC and if the Patriots do they lose to the Ravens.

GB has to deal with the Bears and the Lions (if Stafford stays healthy, watch out!!!) and both teams can score with them, the difference being that Bears and Lions d can stop GB.
Right now i'm leaning to the Saints or Bears, quite possibly the Lions or Falcons. 49ers is a sleeper!

NE has the easier road with their schedule, as usual they have one of the weakest schedules in the league. The Steelers will be a pretty good game and they may drop one to the Bills but i think they handle the Jets both games. SD wins next week and Indy leaves with a win.

The Ravens are the scariest team in the NFL and i don't see anyone stopping them this year. They just blew out a SB team and yet all the the talk is about two teams that have no d and literally were challenged in both games.

I would hardly say the Packers have no defense, I think it was more of them facing a Saints team that have a talented offense as well. To the best of my knowledge, Green Bay has virtually the same defense they had last year and that seemed to work out for everyone.
