I fully expect the Pats to be fine, its just week 1, but this tastes sweet considering all these sports media talking heads who were flat out acting like the Patriots had no competition at all in the AFC. Talking about them being as dominant as the 2007 undefeated squad. This won't shut them up, they'll make excuses to save face, but its nice for an AFC team to come right out of the gate and show that there's other teams in the conference who have a chance.
