Last year heading into Week 10 the Patriots were entering the bye week at 7-2 and FULL of power after beating the high-flying Broncos, 43-24. This year's 8-0 squad is about to face it's toughest stretch of the season: at the Giants, home vs. the Bills and then at Denver. Once they get through that stretch, it brings us to December, and we all know how the Patriots perform in December.
With one eye squinting ahead to home-field advantage in the playoffs, the Cincinnati Bengals are right up there with New England at 8-0.
