A few weeks back someone asked me whether or not people would consider this year

Unless the Pats go 19-0, I dont think they can be considered one of the greatest teams ever.

IDK, they are up there. Then again Vikings went 15-1 in 98 and lsot in the playoffs so they are barely remembered, same as the Steelers 15-1 the year before they went to the super bowl, and we crushed that dream...

Just set these three records and make Eli Manning look foolish and I'll be happy.

51 touchdowns, 23 touchdowns, 16 wins. Do it.

I could go with a nice 17-44, 208 yard, 0 TD, 4 INT game from Manning.

Osi gives Brady a concussion- Lavar Arrington to Troy Aikman style- in the 4th quarter when Bellicheck inexcusably keeps his starters in even though they are up by 3 touchdowns. Pats go 16-0 but lose in the playoffs with Matt Cassel at QB.

Way to be a d-bag. I know it's rough being an NY sports fan at the moment, but wishing harm to anyone is just ignorant.

Did I wish harm? It shouldn't be interpreted that way. I am simply saying that the main reason Brady has been relatively safe this season is due to the amazing offensive line. There are some injuries in that line & with this Giant defense it should be a concern. Since Bill has shown that he has no problem running up the score because "any team can comeback from anything" is it that crazy to think that Brady could be in the game too long & suffer an injury? I am surprised it hasn't happened already this season which again speaks volumes about the offensive line your team has.

You predicted an injury. Not only does that have nothing to do with the game, its obvious you are wishing the injury on Brady, rather than him "just getting hit hard in the 4th quarter." Your post had nothing to do with the Giants winning or Patriots losing, just about injuring Tom Brady.

You're right it had nothing to do with the Giants winning or the Patriots losing because I specifically said the Patriots would win.

Did I predict an injury or did I present a realistic scenario like Bleeding Green presented the 4 INT game from Eli? Both could happen. One because Eli isn't an effective passer & one because the team is on the cusp of perfection so the starters will play longer than they should.

I am sorry that I got you guys upset. I did not say I wished or hoped that Tom got injured. I'm not a Jets fan, I could care less what the Pats do.

Anything can happen.
