And don’t be so naive. Of course if they lose in the playoffs they won’t say it’s good. That’s stupid.

This is a young football team that made some young mistakes that cost them the game. You don’t think they can learn from that?

Don't call me naive. It's my personal opinion, I can state my personal opinion.

I'm just saying, at what point will these "it's good for us" streaks last until you are knocked back down to earth? It's just a cycle that keeps happening. I'm just saying, I doubt the Patriots say these kind of things. Personally, I just have never liked that expression whether it's our team or anyone else saying it. But don't call me naive.

The Pats and Jags are on two completely different planes though. 

NE has done it time and time again, they're full of veteran players who know what to do, how to do it, how to prepare, etc. 

This Jags team is so young and so desperate for the respect teams like NE get, and when they get a taste, they get a little cocky. Which is normal for a young team getting their first taste of success and still maturing. They'll get there. 

A humbling loss is completely different for Jax than it is for NE.
