The BYE week is just as important as home-field advantage for us. If you give Peyton Manning, Del Rio and Foxy two weeks to prepare for the Pats and play at home, you can bet that they will have a really good game plan to beating the Pats. All we have to do is execute.
After we came off our BYE week after the Chargers game, we faced a surging New Orleans team that had the top offense in the NFL with a below average defense in Denver. Guess what happened!? We completely and thoroughly dominated them in every facet of that game and we became one of the very few teams to ever shut down that offense. I'm not saying that we'll do that to the Pats, but it sure sounds similar, doesn't it? Couple that with the Patriots struggles in Denver and I like our chances.
