    Do you expect the Patriots to be tops again next year?

    Will they rebound from this ultra dissapointing loss yesterday and be back as strong as ever or will they take a step down?

    They do have quite a few old players at key positions(especially on D).
    Bruschi
    Seau
    Harrison
    Vrabel
    Moss(yes he is still at the top of his game)
    A. Thomas
    Colvin

    And
    Most likely losing Samuel.

    I think they're done.

    Given the age of some of those guys, the half-assed backwards schedule they always play, the allegations of cheating....I think it's a bit much to overcome.

        Thought you only care about the Bills?

          This directly applies to the Bills chances of a division title.

            So why not name the thread, do you think the Bills have a shot at the division title?

                Their defense is good but not great. Their offense, with the exception of yesterday, is what is great. They make their defense better because the Patriots offense is so good that teams were one dimensional against them. I think you can run on this defense. The problem is teams were behind so they had to pass. Age has caught with them.
                The key to the Patriots being done is if they have the salary cap to re-tool.

                    It is too early to tell. If anything happens with Belichick, it throws a wrench in things.

                    However, I'm pretty sure they re-sign Randy, and Brady will be back. Their offense will be very good again.

                    Defensively, they may lose some key guys. They are going to have to get younger on that side of the ball. They have the #7 pick, which is a plus.

                    ST-wise they should be good again.

                    I think things are promising, but there are big question marks that will have to be answered. They should be in the mix.

                      Because I didn't want to. What now?

                        They will be a top 5 team next season again. They won't go 18-1 but they will most likely own the AFC east again. I think they would be better off replacing some of their old guys.

                            I think they will still be good but maybe not dominate.
