As an analyst said yesterday about the Chargers, if they can get TDs in the redzone and not settle for FGs, any team has a shot at beating the Pats.. The Chargers got 3 FGs in the redzone and lost.. If those three had been TDs, it would've been 24-21 Chargers.. Just saying..

That's a big "IF" the Pats have always had a bend don't break style... get in the 20 is one thing, getting in the endzone is different.

yeah, the NFL loves that stuff if the schedule works... such as when Indy or Pittsburg or Oakland would open in NE after the super bowl win.

The Pats go to Indy again in 08 and 09 (Indy came here 04-05-06, so it looks like a 3 year trade off).

But, I'm not going to worry about opening day...

The Pats still have one more to go.
