Betting On The Patriots ..... Again !!!!
Location: BlogsBlogsRex Snider's Blog    
Posted by: Rex Snider 7/23/2008 6:58 AM
You had to know this day was coming, right? Admittedly, I’m still smarting a bit over last season’s Super Bowl upset. I’ll concede that with the Ravens 2007 struggles, I began to appreciate the New England Patriots’ “Pursuit Of Perfection” as the playoffs approached. I guess you can say I became a Quasi-Patriots fan.

As the kickoff of Super Bowl XLII neared, I was certain the high-powered New England offense would dispose of the Giants with ease. My experience as a devoted sports enthusiast should have led me to being more reasonable and sane about the Giants chances.

But, I was hooked on the magic created by Tom Brady, Randy Moss and company. Six months later, I still believe they’re the best team in football ….. albeit, with a more flawed, human component. The truth is the best team didn’t win Super Bowl XLII.

The best team simply chose the worst possible game to unravel, a bit. The Patriots didn’t play a poor game. Aside from what devoted New York fans will tell you ….. their beloved ‘Jints were a “freak play” away from dropping their 2nd Super Bowl, in 8 years. You wanna thank someone? Give credit to whoever designed David Tyree’s helmet.

Is this an excuse? Quite possibly. The game should’ve NEVER been that close !!!! Hell, if the NFL ever wants to promote the “Any Given Sunday” cliché’ ….. they simply need to package a DVD of this game. Anything can happen in the span of 60 minutes between the goalposts.

The Patriots had the better quarterback ….. better running back ….. better receivers ….. better O-Line ….. better kicker ….. better coach ….. should I go on? I know, I know ….. it’s just sour grapes. If that’s the case, why are the Patriots at lower odds than the Giants as we enter the 2008 season? Did either team really reinvent their rosters during the off-season? Did Michael Strahan’s retirement bump the Giants below 6 other teams, according to Vegas?

The NFL knows it. The “Talking Head Army” knows it. Vegas and every sportsbook certainly knows it. The Patriots were and are a better team. They simply had a bad day ….. end of story.

The New England Patriots are THE TEAM to beat as we enter NFL training camps, across the country. Don’t get me wrong, they’re a key injury away from being an 8-8 team. Absent that injury, they’re gonna be a tough opponent to get past.

Doubt it? Look at their schedule ….. they’re probably a 14-2 team, and that’s if they lose to the Colts and Chargers. They’ll benefit from weak AFC-East opponents in 6 games. Throw in contests against the Chiefs, Raiders, Cardinals, 49ers, Rams and Broncos and it’s unfathomable to imagine they’ll win less than 12 games. Let ‘em lose to the Colts, Chargers and Steelers or Seahawks, and they’re likely to secure home field advantage with a 13-3 record.

The Patriots primary competition, Indy and San Diego have arguably tougher schedules. The Colts play the Jags twice, along with games against the Chargers, Browns, Steelers, Packers and Patriots. All of these contests, except the Patriots will be on the road. San Diego will play the Colts, Patriots, Steelers, Saints (in London) and Panthers. By the way, the game against the Saints, in London, comes a week after playing the Bills on the East Coast. That’s not very fair …..

Another factor is the embarrassment the Patriots have lived with for the past six months. Do you think that particular feeling is doing anything other than BURNING within Tom Brady’s psyche? For the most part, the Patriots have gone into seclusion since the monumental upset.

I believe their approach is calculated and with true purpose. Look for them to keep their mouths shut and to simply play nearly flawless football, while dominating most opponents, again. These guys have been on the BIG STAGE ….. where they’ve won and lost.

They’ve got something to prove. They won’t go undefeated during the regular season, again. But, they’ll finish the job this time and win the most important game. Bet on it …..

I would think someone who, as a former policeman, holds high regard for justice and honor would have at least a little problem with the fact that the Patriots are PROVEN CHEATERS. How can you continue to ignore that???

Bernie, since I believe in justice, I'll maintain that they have been punished and it's over. That's the sad part of this ..... people want punishment for the offender, but when it's over ..... IT'S OVER.
