Brady done for season. Are Pats? No Super Bowl, but Hell No They're Not Done!

Not necessarily, although the first weekend in February freed up for a potential hiking or skiing trip. Yeah, the Super Bowl is a pipe dream now, a lost cause. But the AFC East is still winnable. There's still talent around Foxboro. Still enough to win the AFC East? Very likely. The other three teams aren't all that. Cassel may surprise of all of us. You never know. After seeing the hit, I'm not blaming anyone on either side. That's football. This sucks, but football wise we've had it very good for a long while now, and it's supposed to be fun so I need to try harder than ever not to take things personally.

As for next week? Of course, beating the Jets will be tough in their home opener, the first home game in the Favre era. Fired up crowd, fired up team, all of Giants Stadium smelling blood in the river. But......in the words of the immortal Lee Corso......not so fast, my friend. Until they prove otherwise, they're still the Jets. I trust Bill Belichick and his staff to come up with the game plan to make things interesting, if not pull off what many would consider an upset. I'll still be at Murphy's Pub, win or lose. Who's with me?
