Do you think the Patriots would’ve been as successful over these last couple decades if only 1 team got a bye? They were the 2 an awful lot as well.

I guess the positive is that it will force this team to stay focused on every game. I felt like the team was pretty unfocused against Detroit and Tennessee during the regular season. They squeaked past the Lions in one of the ugliest wins you'll ever see. And the sloppy lack of focus bit them in the butt in Nashville.
