Great poll.
I think New England would be 6-5. I think they've got a lot of talent, but by Week 8, Randy Moss would be sick and tired of the conservative play calling, and he would be jogging through routes. Similarly, Tom Brady's starting job would be in jeopardy due to his rebellious audibles in situations where, for example, he sees 10 on the line, 3 receivers completely uncovered, and Solari calling a run. Herm doesn't tolerate rebellion.
As for the Chiefs, I went with 9-2. Cro to Bowe would be the biggest thing since Tinker to Evers to Chance, and Bowe would be fresh off a Tonight Show appearance. The Chiefs defense is more talented than the Patriots' defense so they would be doing better, and the two losses would've come early before Belichick found two solid journeyman to solidify the right side of the offensive line.
