Does anyone believe that what comes around, goes around and that karma is a... well you know?

The league didnt punish the Pats enough for spygatge... Brady is lost for the season with a serious knee injury.

I really think this is the beginning of the end for the Patriots. They are getting older. A year without Brady is going to be tough on them. Their defense is losing a step and getting old. Their offensive line are obviously starting to slip up a little bit with Brady actually getting hit yesterday and during the Super Bowl. I mean they are built for a win now sort of deal. The next time we see Brady on the field, he will have had surgery on a knee, Moss will be another year older, that line will be another year older, quite a few people on that defense should be retiring (Harrison, Bruschi, Vrabel). Bellicheck might leave too... There was talks of him leaving after two years ago.


Everyone else in the AFC East is getting younger. Sure by trading for Favre, the Jets didnt get younger, but it will help them groom someone. The Bills have a young supporting cast up there and getting used to Dick Jauron's system.

Sparano, Parcells and Ireland will continue to build this team for the future. They will get the right personel for the system they are implementing and I think we are in a great position for the rest of the season and years to come.

I hope for all our sakes that the patsies are done.Wish the Bills wouldnt have looked so good yesterday.But yes I hope a new leader will emerge in the AFCE and the sooner the better.

i think it will be the bills they are a team heading in the right diretion with young talent unlike the jets that are putting evreything into these next two years before brett is gone and the salary cap catchs up to them. Maybe in couple years the old dolphins bills rivlery will be roborn thats if the bills are still in buffalo:lol:

Not for nothing....The Pats have been what you describe for all thier run. Bledsoe got hurt........In comes Brady....
 
the cheatriots have been lucky for awhile..hell ill pull for the bills over the f***triots any day (I just despise them more).

That being said, I'm hoping for the Phins to represent the AFCE.
 
The Pats have been to the Super Bowl with 3 different QBs since the last time we have been.
That blows...
 
Not for nothing but I just don't hate the Pats as much as the Jets or Bills. STeve Grogan and Mosi Tatupu were kind of idols of mine. I like guys that play the game the right way.
 
Jets already getting lucky, what a time to spend all your resources to get vet players and a vet Qb and then boom Brady goes down. I hate to say it but this might be the Jets year, but this is the only chance they have, this year.
 
the main thing the dolphins need to do is bring 3 or 4 wrs and one or two of them ought to be very good wrs. once this happens the fins will get better and win.
 
I want the Pats to be done as bad as anyone, but not this way. I want them to fail with Brady not without him. I also hate to see anyone injured, period!
 
Cassel hasnt started a game since 1999 (high school). He sat all through college behind Carson Palmer and Matt Lienert, then behind Tom Brady. I dont think he can run the offense like Brady. Speed of the defenses he has to face this year might be a tad bit intimidating.

I'm with you, I never root for someone to get hurt. My opinion is that if I can't beat you with my best players beating your best players, then i'm just not as good as you. Yesterday, we might have been one catch away, but we lost, so yesterday, their best beat our best. But with this injury to Brady, ESPN and the whole lot of them will put extra emphasis on reminding anyone and everyone that this is a different team without Tom Brady. Which is 100% accurate. I'm with you, until they fail WITH Brady under center, nothing will change.

Now as far as the Future. I think it's obvious that it's the Bills and Jets Division to lose. I still think NE is a good team, but that's it a "GOOD" team, I think the Bills and Jets are Better and I think we have a shot against them at home. I still say we win 6 to 7 games this season and I see the Jets beating out the Bills for the Division.
 
I find it interesting that ESPN is saying:

"Yeah the entire AFC East is up for grabs now! Whole new ball game! The Bills and Jets definitely have a chance here"

Like it's some three team division.

I mean i don't expect the Dolphins to win the division either, but they did only lose by 6 points yesterday.

As for the future.....Time will only tell.

The Bills appear to be on the upswing with some good young players, the Patriots and Jets are aged and could be on the downfall. Although as long as Tom Brady and Brett Favre are in this league those teams will be at the very least playoff contenders.
