No Patriots in 2016

Our incompetence means we won't have them on the schedule next year. So at least that's one annual lopsided loss we won't have next year.

by the next time we play Brady, maybe he will have slowed down...lol

Too much positivism may be harmful as well. We have to beat whoever comes, anyway we have a good chance to encounter them in the PO...if we make it.

Unfortunately, Brady will be "chuckling" at us all the way to SB-50.  Just makes me cringe with a little vomit coming up  .  Just think, if we would have beat the Patriots, we wouldn't be in this mess.  Oh wait, we didn't lose to the Jags, right?  Pinching myself, dang, we did........  humphhhhhhh.

Indy was still 0-2 against AFCE teams not named the Patriots, with one game to go.  They got crushed by Buffalo and NYJ (lose each by 2+ scores), but actually made the Pats game competitive.  I think priorities here are off a bit.

you play to beat the best, i'm not taking anything positive from this

The Fat Lady hasn't quite sung on this one... still another week before this is factual.

Yeah I would still like to play them because I would love to see Andrew finally beat them but by not winning the Division our schedule may be a tad easier next season. Not having them on the schedule alone makes it easier. We also play the NFC North next season and the Lions and Bears both are games we should win just looking way ahead if Andrew plays and is healthy.

If the Colts by some miracle end up winning the South, they'll play the Pats in the regular season, as they're scheduled to play whoever finishes the AFC East in same divisional position as them.

 

So if Indy wins the South, Pats win East, then they play. But it's not looking likely, it's looking more like it'll be NYJ or BUF.

And even if we don't face them in the regular season, I guess we'll just have to settle for beating them in the playoffs
