So is the Patriots playoff schedule still a factor? (1 Viewer)

Heard a lot of mess in the preseason about people lowering Brady & Moss's value because they could be playing in blizzards late in the season. I think today proves that means much of nothing.

The problem is they might actually be playing against teams that decide to play defense against the pass. Heck defense at all.

I wouldn't call today a blizzard, but either way they are a passing team and I dont see them changing that for some snow.

You can't compare todays weather with the weather in late December. This was NOTHING compared to that "ice bowl" the Patriots played in 07 vs. the Jets. I would still be worried about their playoff schedule, two games in Foxboro and one in Buffalo. No thanks. Take this from an 07 Brady owner who was killing his league with Brady and lost in the playoffs with -2 points from Brady in that famous "ice bowl". IT IS ONLY MID-OCTOBER FOR GOODNESS SAKES.

They played a terrible team today so I don't think you can absolutely say Brady will put up great numbers again in the playoffs if the weather is the same. In the 2007 season, he laid an egg against the Jets and that was the end of my playoff run. Now, there is no way I bench him if the weather is like today but I am also not going to think he is a lock for a great game. The potential for a great game is too much though not to start him.
