From the NY Times: “Brady’s steady hand points the way again”
Take away the receivers, take away the coordinators, take away the home-field advantage, and the New England Patriots are still left with Tom Brady at quarterback.After throwing three interceptions and a series of ankle-level incompletes, Tom Brady seemed to flip a switch in the fourth quarter. Talk about grace under pressure: he promptly marched down the field twice to score eleven unanswered points. IMHO, the AFC championship game is going to be the proxy Super Bowl with Payton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts playing at home against the Patriots.
In January, he is all they seem to need.

Yeah, you have a point. As long as I live, I'll never forget the "Meet the Press" the morning of the Pats first Superbowl against the HEAVILY favored St. Louis Rams. The head of NFL Films was asked if the Patriots had a chance: he said "no."
That game the Patriots avoided the individual roll call in favor of being introduced "as a team." Corny, yes, but they won.
