The second place 1 - 2 New England Patriots host the Carolina Panthers at Gillette on Sunday September 28th at 1:00 PM. Should be a barn burner.
It sucks that they gave away a winnable game last week. Was that a good Pittsburgh team? Eh, not really. Were the Patriots worse? Absolutely.
Season Power Rankings:
1) Salt
2) Autumn
3) Spring
4) of the Witch
5) Tickets
Three Things I'm looking forward to this week:
1) Wide receivers who know which direction to run.
2) Going for it on fourth down.
3) Ball security.
Did the Patriots score 20 points last week? No.
(Bonus points for putting up 33 on a hapless Dolphins team in week 2. If only we could play the Dolphins 17 times a year.)
My prediction: Pats 24, Panthers 21

Let's step into Fake Dr. Melfi's office for a quick therapy session.
Last week you said "We're so back." This week, you're saying "It's so over." What changed?
You've said it yourself, your expectations weren't that high going into the season. And yet here you are, three weeks later, riding a rollercoaster of emotions. So why do you think you're letting them ruin another Sunday? Why should you let grown men playing a game with a ball have so much say over your emotions?
Of course things could be better. Nobody is telling you to forget about the past. You can acknowledge the past without living in it eternally. Where are we going now? Where would you like to go?
Let's move on. Now... tell me again about your dream where your mother was dressed like Bill Belichick.
