yeah, you’re not alone David….I’m one of those Patriot fans who get nervous because everything about the Patriots is looking TOO GOOD…….it can’t be this easy, can it?….maybe I need a shrink

Thanks boys. I hate these Dolphin games. Even when the Pats win it’s like roller skating on a mattress. Just a real grind…

David, I always get nervous with games against the Dolphins. The Pats never seem to dominate them like they do to the Jets and Bills, it’s always close.

David, you’re not an idiot; the Dolphins are always bad juju for the hometown squad. Still, I see a relatively easy W if two things occur:
1. Kyle Brady is planted on the left to help out Light against No. 99.
2. Heath Evans stays on Tom Brady’s hip like a plus-one trying to get into Studio 54 on Warhol’s pass, to help out the other Brady with the aforementioned No. 99
3. After one TD each to Moss, Stallworth and Welker, keep handing the ball to Eckel and see what that baby can do.

Bonus: Look for an all-Gutierrez Q4!

I’m as nervous a Pats fan as you’ll find. They could be playing my high school team and by game time I’ll find something to fret about. That stated, I don’t think they’ll fall into a “trap” this weekend. The combo of BB’s relentess focus on the present moment and the players’ knowledge of recent struggles in Miami should assure me.

I wouldn’t be true to myself, however, if I didn’t find at least one thing to worry about; I think I have it: this will be the first game this year the Pats play on grass/dirt. Will it matter? I’ve no idea, but it is something different.

Please tell me I’m an idiot — I can take it…
