Any other AFC team would have played better defense, the patsies just got spoiled in outscoring everybody like the colts did and forgot to play defense. We are healthy on both sides of the ball and it's going to be a fun year. Batch is one of the best backups in the league, he's better than Cassel even with a broken collarbone.
The Pats team that made it to the SB wasn't the same team that was playing the first 10 games of the season. That undefeated crap really took its tole IMO. In the playoffs we were beating people off strictly natural skill and not with any tenacity or really having to try too much. We didn't have another gear left anymore. That couple that with an awesome Giants pass rush and we were primed for an upset. I can't wait to see your first real test in the Eagles. You win that and I'll give you some props.
