" Way you read to you and this is this fall into one category LL WW WLL well guys it's it's put me down for all all the w.s look at this again this falls into the category I guess I knew this but I have forgotten. Here's the Patriots schedule. They opened with. But Chiefs at the Jets. Home against the Dolphins a bye week and San Francisco. Does anybody think that's anything but. Five and up."

" It's funny we are most recent memory is the Super Bowl which was to -- shocking. Epic game that they blue but. Let's face -- they were. Two minutes from being in nineteen you know being considered the greatest of all time greatest team ever there's still that team we have just because I read David Perry capital on the ball. And things went the other way they're still. Arguably the greatest team ever. And the favorite. And a and a little bit and stuff and yeah that's true too yeah object lesson learned right so maybe the fact they lost the -- Rubel makes him even more. Intimidating. Heading into the season yeah I went to think about them though every. The first power ranking chemo. And and we just looking at their number one analyst -- is yes. He has -- power rankings -- the first one and of course the Patriots are first on top analyst and the reason their first. They're great team with the easiest schedule in the NFL I can't disagree I mean look -- the not an easy schedule this easiest and I know part of it a large part of it is their division in the two games against all those teams and they shoot again ago. Six in well in division but beyond that it's not that daunting. A conference in conference early late. If you look at it on at that hole and you can't see a lot of stumbling block --"

" would hate this hoopla but jumpin make a noise do something signal when you think I'd mention a game that they could possibly lose Chiefs. Jets. Dolphins. 49ers. Chargers. Chargers. At San Diego. There's a possible maybe could lose yet it is one at San Diego Chargers October 12 -- against Denver. Home against the St. Louis Rams. At Indianapolis. You know you could lose to. Home against Buffalo. Home against the Jets at Miami on November 23. That's thanksgiving or we have two possible impossible -- home against the Pittsburgh Steelers November 30 and now. That's awesome home against the Steelers yeah possible okay possible but it's not a pessimist. At Seattle at Oakland that's laughable Arizona at -- And at the Buffalo Bills in the regular season. And then buying them home game -- another home game and that's so a ball that you regret and -- a pissed off Patriot I'm serious I'm serious. Thirteen. You do is we just three possible. Right possible for the probably win those that lose something you expect -- thirteen thirteen races."

" Probably better than sixty you know cause it takes the pressure -- still gets in the first seat I think I mean in my IP fourteen to your team out there but. That's all they want is the home game the first seed. And then it's on to the Super Bowl with the Super Bowl this year Tampa category first number one in the power rankings and ESPN Patriots six last year's record sixty you know San -- the new hot team right Patriots may have major question marks at cornerback but with the NFL's easiest schedule that shouldn't matter of the key is staying healthy and number two Colts number three charges. So love them before Cowboys number five Jaguars so forth the top five in the AFC yeah so maybe there will be. Some. Daunting tasks in the post season but it's so -- And I guess we should be used to -- now to go into Patriots season. And just know they're in the play the first -- and over again when division yeah rights and no doubt it will win their division I used to be. Just the major accomplishment to win the AFC east now it's a foregone conclusion. They will judge Jimenez schedule and the first week of the playoffs off get healthy get rested and then have a home game. So if -- of course -- gonna win at home in the playoffs. The worst. Case scenario is a date with the than the Colts who the Jaguars -- on the drug charges. In the AFC championship game so you win that game he goes Super Bowl you lose that game day you know -- they -- get disappointed right. But the worst case scenario we can come up with sitting here. Step and back trying to look now long term would be. A game four. The NFC title yet and of course all this is predicated on one individual I'm staying up bright but that's pretty pro would you think about those other teams not just one guy right. I mean obviously Peyton Manning's critical political success but their other guys there's one guy. If he stays healthy they go to the NFC -- game -- in the better simple as that they better block but it that they did -- Super Bowl yes that that is true I mean that with that would be an issue. When they play a team with a good defensive line you're going to look back that's Super Bowl saying -- in the duplicate with the Giants did can they make the so offensive line looks Italy and get the Brady L. When you look at -- that was pick this game and yes Beason in the highlights. It's amazing the Brady finished the soup Campbell's than extreme and he took some shots from the blind side. In a vulnerable. -- prone position he was getting popped from all directions if teams can duplicate that -- how many teams have the personnel. But then then they'll be. Then there will be some questions and that's okay mean you want to all be so bored easily now all the BC 91 America and Danny -- joins us during the 8 o'clock hour after this break we'll be back with headlines."
