its been awhile since the pats were a wait till next year team, but it sure looks that way. Yes they are 3-1 and can still make the playoffs, but won't make it any further than the first round without a kick in the ass in defense
The Patriots have two picks in each of the first four rounds of the draft next year. Even though the organization hasn't exactly hit home runs with their draft picks in the past few years, with that many, they should be fine.
As for the Vikings......they now have the most talented team in the NFC North, maybe in the NFC as a whole. If they can get in sync, watch out.
brett wasn't at training camp.....soooo after the 4th week is really when hes probably starting to get in rhythm......it shocks me how quickly people are will to dismiss a guy who has 19 years of HOF football under his belt

No. I don't believe they come close to the division this year. All you need to do is look at Brett Favre play this year.
Has he had a receiver of Moss's caliber to spread the field? Nope. Rice has been hurt all year, Percy Harvin has been hot and cold, and the rest have been non-factors. At the very least, Moss's presence spreads the field and makes life much easier for Favre and Adrian Peterson. They have the talent to win the division and the NFC if they can gel quickly. A big if, since they are going into the teeth of their schedule, but they can do it. As I said before, both Green Bay and Chicago are hurting right now and that division is very much up for grabs.
A good 5-6 years with a bad coach, an old Dline and no QB of the future on the team? Their window is closing and thats why they made this trade.
Brad Childress is not a bad coach by any means. He got the Vikings to the playoffs with an average QB the year before Favre came to town. The poor planning for the future, for me, falls on the ownership, which has been heavily scrutinized in Minnesota.

You'll probably be picking up a WR in the first or second round of the draft, then load up on defense. You'll be fine.

The Vikes have another good 5-6 years in them... especially if AP learns how to hold a football
