If Belichick can keep AB and Gordon out of trouble, I'm having a tough time imagining New England losing anytime soon.

Yeah, I don't see how other teams are suppose to cover Thomas, Gordon, AB, Edelman and Dorset.  Especially with White being able to catch in the back field and take off running.  And the Pats defense isn't half bad either.  The Pats are looking tough this year.

This could be the last best chance for Brady-Belichick to finally get that mythical 19-0. Everyone remembers the biggest upset ever, falling to Eli in '07, but they had a team in 2015 that could've gone all the way after starting 10-0 before Edelman suffered a season-ender in week 9/10.
They ended up losing 4 of their last 6 by basically a score in every game, including an OT loss to the Broncos which gave up homefield. And then they lost by 2 in the AFC Championship to the Super Bowl champion Broncos; so it cost them maybe another Super Bowl too.

Looking at their schedule now, if they can manage to move past their demons in Miami they don't even have a playoff team until week 9 at Baltimore. Gives them lots of time to figure out what their best team is.
