That this loss to the ravens is the loss that finally crushes the patriots' spirits, or that Baltimore has finally exposed the patriots O and teams can now more effectively defend against their attack meaning the pats will struggle to score points even with the help of the refs?
Is it too much to hope...

Re: Is it too much to hope...
Every year this thread comes up once they lose and they end up in the Superbowl/deep in the playoffs the next year again.
I think we should all just accept the fact that as long as Brady is healthy/in the league, that team isn't going to hit any wall.Originally posted by LOSman WINSVanek is Austrian not EuropeanOriginally posted by Prov401Pacquiao isn't asian.

Personally I've thought for a while that they were a soft team... yesterday proved a middle-of-the-road better-then-average football team with some grit can give them all they can handle. That certainly explains how the pats lost to the cards... the card's defense was certainly not soft. Or how they lost to an underwhelming giants team in the superbowl... two times in a row.
Its not that the pats are particularly vulnerable to tough football teams... just their offense certainly is... and playing tough hard nosed defenses week after week like the playoffs requires of them make their eventual loss all that more certain. The Patriots teams that won the superbowl 3 times were tough football teams (also cheaters... but i personally think even knowing what the other team is calling won't matter if your players can't execute, or win in the trenches). Their teams recently are not.
Besides, this makes 2 straight years the heart of their current offense was hurt in their last game. Gronk couldn't run during the superbowl last year, and this year he had a broken arm. It seems more likely that without Gronk, shutting down Welker and Hernandez is a lot easier.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.
MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!
