Thing is that the Patriots are not really that much better than us. They have lost a lot of key players from last years Super Bowl champs. This year they have been outgained by both the Steelers and the Bills in close games that the Pats only won by one score.
Here is how we beat the Pats

Brady is so quick getting rid of the ball that he can beat most blitzes. In fact fining the hole in coverage is what he does best. So we are better having those LBs back in coverage if we can get any pressure at all with our front four.
Pats have had to shuffle their O-line due to injury this year, and both Dunlap and Atkins are having fantastic seasons.
Still not saying we would be favored to win. But I'd like our chances against the Pats. I think our strength may match up well with their weakness.
