Malik Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 All of them. The Patriots haven't looked above and beyond anyone overall this year. They've had several close games this year when touchdowns were taken away away from opposing teams. Not like they've been outright dominating.

Jlowe22 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 They beat the Saints pretty good, but I don't think it would go that way again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just seem to be a very well rounded team. That defensive line could cause a lot of problems for teams in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're good but I don't see them making it all the way to the SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iknowcool Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 1. Saints 2. Panthers 3. Rams Not necessarily how I rank the teams, but Panthers/Saints have good defenses and experienced QBs. I like the Rams a lot, but the lack of experience concerns me. I’ve seen Rams fans criticize McVay for clock management. Something like that would kill them against the Patriots. Eagles and Vikings have the defense and running game to stay in it, but I don’t trust either of their offenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmurtry86 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Pretty much any team in the playoffs could beat New England. Better Pats teams have lost to mediocre playoff teams and worse Pats teams have won playoff games. You never know what could happen. Given that their biggest weakness is their LB group's sideline to sideline and coverage ability, I'd say that the Saints and Rams are the toughest on paper matchups. It's easy to see ways they'd be one-and-done in the AFC playoffs though so it's not worth worrying about until things start to unfold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of experienced teams bite the dust when they get to the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancerman Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Patriots struggle with scrambling QB's. Newton scares me the most. His team always seems to get the big break when they need it against us. Otherwise mcmurty is right. In the 7 Super Bowls since Brady got there I'd have very easily said the teams that beat us were the one's I would favor the least against the Patriots.

You had to go back 36 years to find your second inexperienced team (your first is almost 20 years ago). That’s not convincing anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
