New England is a juggernaut that of which I have never seen in the 25 years I've been keeping up with the NFL. With the exception of the Indy game, they have thoroughly dominated in every facet of the game.
And even the Indy game lent only false hopes to other teams in the league. Once the Pats "turned it on" in the last 10 minutes, they steamrolled right down the field and got touchdowns.
Jesus Christ.
Except for Indy and Dallas, they have had shit for opponents. Their division is laughable.
The fact that Indy was able to keep up with them, with that many people out with injuries, says a lot.
New England's opponents - .4777 winning record. Take Dallas and Indy out of the mix - .371. THAT is laughable.
Indy's opponents - .561. Take New England out - .511. With the injuries they've incurred? I'd say that's pretty impressive.
I'm not saying New England isn't all that. I'm just saying I don't think they are the second coming everyone else seems to think they are.
