Still Perfect

The team that everyone loves to hate The New England Patriots are still undefeated and still on the road for that perfect season. With a win over the Eagles on Sunday night football Tom Brady took his team one step closer to NFL history to be the second team to go 17-0 and win a superbowl. The only other team to achieve this perfect season was arguably the best team ever the 1972 Miami Dolphins. After watching this close game against the Eagles and the close call that the Patriots had its a toss up if they can pull it through and go undefeated. With the Brady-Moss connection clicking and an offense that is averaging over 39 points per game, the Patriots appear to be an unstoppable force. This undefeated question reminds me of the Cults and last year's season.

With five games left in the season anything can happen at this point expecially with a little thing called "Any Given Sunday." There are too many factors that can happen over the next few weeks to prevent the undefeated season. Pittsburg and the NY Giants pose big obstacles to the Patriots. The three other teams on the schedule arent going to role over to the Patriots either just becuase they are on a perfect season run. Each of the five teams left on the schedule want to be the one that puts the banana in the exhuast of the Patriots Bus on the road to the perfect season.

So far every team that has come close to the history books has come short for one reason or another. Statistically, the chips are not stacked in the favor of the Pats becuase the NFL season is full of upsets and with five more games there are five chances for that to happen.

For the Patriots to be perfect they have to play perfect. Brady has to continue playing his game, Moss has to keep the Brady-Moss connection alive, Maroney has to keep the ground game alive, and most importantly the defense has to shut everything down. If the Pats can manage to be perfect for the next five games which i feel they have a good chance to do, they will be the next team in the history books.
