Usually I never write them off, I know what Tom is capable of but they aren't even better than KC  , Baltimore will clean their clocks.

Baltimore is going to cream them in the playoffs. They are done finally and I feel good about saying that. Most Pats know it too. Baltimore is the best team in the league and it's not even close. 

Current State: They're 10-3. They're a playoff team once again.    Past State: "The New England Patriots hold the longest active consecutive playoff streak with 10 appearances, starting with the 2009–10 NFL playoffs, which is the longest of all-time. The Patriots have won three Super Bowls during this streak."    Future: Remains to be seen. I hope they fall off of a cliff.

I will preface this by saying I do not think it will happen(even though it should).  But, I can imagine a  scenario where JB is cut.  IF we draft a QB high and we truly make it an open competition in camp between JB, Rookie, CK ... I don't think it is far fetched to think JB would be the 3rd best QB. I don't expect them to truly go open competition though, the loyalty & leadership factor won't allow it.

And he is still a kid!  Not even 24 yet.  It's kind of scary how good he could be in a couple of years!
