We played PIT and LAC late in the season (one on the road, no less) and our defense limited both greatly.

Are you bragging about your loss to Pittsburgh?

And yet, couldn't seal the number one seed.

He's been gloating about that 10 point outing for a couple dozen pages now. All cause NE didn't give up many sacks.

I'm bragging about our spectacular defensive performance that game, which is entirely unrelated to the offensive performance, yes.

And you lost to Pittsburgh on the road... a.k.a. a non playoff team.

Also the Colts offense was higher ranked (7th vs. 11th) than the Chargers and Luck threw for more TD’s and yards than Rivers this season... you might want to consider that as you try to minimize the Chiefs performance vs. the Colts offense.

The spectacular defensive performance in a loss, right?

They lost that one on purpose, to rope-a-dope the Chiefs in the playoffs.

You can't make this crap up.

Man, you people must drink dummy juice all at once out there. It can't be made up alright. WHoa!

IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT THEIR RECORD IS THIS YEAR when Sunday rolls around.

Are you in a suspended state of shock because you're in your first title game in 20 years?

What is it with you people? Brady is coming. The Pats are coming, And, their offense, defense and STs is VASTLY improved from Sept/Oct.

Period.

You should be quietly hoping for the best and hope homefield is enough instead of acting so cocky, pretending the Pats are some kind of a pushover.

I thought the Faketriots were too good to relish in moral victories?

Andrew Luck's road QB ratings by game in the postseason:

88.3 <--- in a dome
23.0
76.2
53.0
59.8

vs KC last Sunday it was 78.8. 2nd best road performance of his career.

We're talking about the 2018 Pats in this thread, so you know. Not 2017 or 2010 or 2007 or 2008 or whatever...

They also beat the crap out of numerous playoff teams.

It DOES NOT MATTER when the whistle blows on Sunday.

This false sense of security and rationalizing never really works in these cases. That's WHY you're doing it.

Going to be a good, close game on Sunday.

Are the Patriots VASTLY improved from December when they lost to 2 non-playoff teams?

Umm, NEWSFLASH:

This team is BETTER than last year's time that was ravaged by injury to key players.

Do you watch the NFL?

Every time the Pats are healthy going into one of these things, they've won.

It's an enormous difference in the odds of winning and sustaining all the way through into a SB.

His offense managed 6 whole points. What a performance.
