Around 4:!5 ET, sports bars around the country will be filled to watch a game on Sunday afternoon on CBS. Not just any game, mind you. Fans will have a chance to see (or not see) history being made. America will get to see if New England can run the table and make off with a record that has stood from the time Richard Nixon was in the White House to the present.
Personaly, I think this will happen but the Pats will be tested. Let's be clear on this. Every NFL team - even the great ones - have chinks in their armor. Pittsburgh will hopefully be the one to expose them but it will not be an easy task. Teams like New England and you could toss Dallas and Green Bay in the mix, are like lions. They look for a chance to pounce and when they do, they don't waste it. Pittsburgh is a gazelle that needs to be careful. To make sure that this doesn't come to pass, the Steelers have to play a physical game and forget about trying to stop Randy Moss. As ESPN's Dan Patrick would say, "You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him."
My prediction -
New England 28, Pittsburgh 23
