Five Things to Watch This Week - AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!

The Patriots play their second playoff game of the season at Gillette against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday January 22, 2012 at 3:00 PM January 20, 2013 at 6:30 PM. Same matchup as last year.  It's deja vu all over again. I think this year's Pats are better than last year's. Defense = improved.  It's not a stretch to say this year's defense is better than last year's historically bad D. Offense = Hot damn!  A running game! I'm not saying we're going to win.  But I like our chances.

Brandon Power Rankings: 1) Spikes 2) Lloyd 3) Deaderick 4) Bolden (We had 4 Brandons play in the game last week.  That's gotta be some kind of record, right?  The Patriots lead the league in Brandons.)

Five Things to Watch This Week - PLAYOFFS!

The Patriots play their first playoff game of the season at Gillette against the Houston Texans on Sunday January 13th at 4:30 PM. You excited?  I'm excited. It's supposed to be upper 40s mid-50s here on Sunday.  So much for our outdoor home field advantage in January against a southern team.  On other hand... Fire up the grill! ***fart noise*** Fictional Dad Power Rankings: 1) Frank Costanza, "Seinfeld" 2) Randy Marsh, "South Park" 3) Kirk Van Houten, "The Simpsons" 4) Professor Henry Jones, "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" 5) Royal Tenenbaum, "The Royal Tenenbaums" Here's five things I'll be watching for this week: 1) Stevan Ridley - Please hang on to the football... Please hang on to the football... Please hang on to the football... 2) Vince Wilfork - Just had one of his best seasons ever.  I love the Big Man. 3) Rob Gronkowski - Don't forget the Patriots beat the Texans last
