Matt Cassel threw for 400 Yards. The Pats Tied the game in the 4th with one of the most amazing drives ever seen with only like a minute to play and no timeouts.

But it was all for naught.

Much like the teh Colts game thisd is one that the Pats should have won but much like that game they did not.

I do not really have a full understanding of what it will take to make the playoffs but from what I heard it sounds kind of bleak.

1. Clearly the Pats cannot lose any more divsional games which I think of them only 1 against the Dolphins and 1 against the Bills remain and the Jets probably have lose one or more too because really head to head the Jets and the Pats are tied.

I have heard the Pats have to win against the Steelers too.

Unfortunately because the Dolphins have played so well this year actually beating the Pats earlier this year, not to mention this next one is in Miami a place where the Pats, even under Tom Brady have not done well. I can;t say how the Pats will do. They are definately a better team now than when they faced them before that is for sure. But.....

The Steelers are a game that looking ahead I had picked the Pats to lose for awhile now. However maybe, just maybe they can pull it off. I actually think they CAN win both these games actually, however.......

They would need to stop making costly mistakes. In both the Jets and Colts losses that has been what has killed them. Yeah their secondary is a little weak but whatever...when you get penatlies that you should not have gotten or fumble the ball for no reason you really are not helping yourself.

Beyond these next two games the Pats have Seatle who suck this year, the Raiders who also suck, The Cardinals who are doing great this year who I think if I remember right the Jets beat already which means teh Pats need to win, and then closing the season is the rematch of the Bills which unless they play much better than last time the Pats should beat.
