NFL's undefeated teams!
last season doesn't mean a thing unless your talking about how the colts haven't lost since last season. All I'm saying is Tom Brady is a good qb with good receivers, so good receivers+good qb+ shitting pass defenses= blowouts, everybody thinks the pats are some force to be reckon with, when in reality they just have an amazingly weak schedule and there division is a joke.

You could be right but they are looking to get their 8th win of the season next week. You don't go half the season without losing unless you've got something serious to offer

Here is an interesting article on Brady's current season and where it ranks all time. FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Is Brady headed for historic season?
Is Tom Brady having the greatest season of any quarterback in modern NFL history? As of right now, there is no question the answer is yes.
When Peyton Manning broke the all-time NFL record by throwing 49 touchdown passes in 2004, Football Outsiders decided to figure out if Manning was the best ever. Our book Pro Football Prospectus 2005 featured a long article about the greatest quarterback seasons since 1960. We considered passing and running stats, we normalized every season to make up for the changes in the NFL's overall offensive level each year, and we adjusted for strength of schedule.
When we ran all the numbers, we ended up with a Colts quarterback on top â?? but not the Colts quarterback you expect. This was our list of the top 10 quarterback seasons since 1960, plus one season that has been added on since:
1) Bert Jones, 1976 Colts
2) Peyton Manning, 2004 Colts
3) Dan Marino, 1984 Dolphins
4) Daunte Culpepper, 2004 Vikings
5) Steve Young, 1992 49ers
6) Ken Anderson, 1975 Bengals
7) Ken Stabler, 1976 Raiders
8) Ken Anderson, 1974 Bengals
9) Steve Young, 1994 49ers
10) Warren Moon, 1990 Oilers
11) Peyton Manning, 2006 Colts
Bert Jones put up great all-around stats during a difficult year for offenses, and he added on significant value as a runner. That's enough to give him the greatest quarterback season in modern NFL history â?? at least, until 2007.
At his current pace, Tom Brady's 2007 season will end up on top of this list, and won't even be close. Brady is on pace for a record completion percentage of 73.8 percent, and he would be second all-time with 4,857 yards. He's also on pace for 62 touchdowns â?? and since there's less offense in the league now than there was three years ago, that actually translates to 67 touchdowns in the 2004 offensive environment where Manning set the record.
The article in PFP 2005 translated all stats into one big number, which represented "Points Above Average" â?? much like the DPAR we use in Quick Reads, but slanted toward better players. Jones led with 163.8 PAA. At his current pace, despite a huge penalty for strength of schedule, Brady would end up with 187.9 PAA. The difference between Jones and Brady would be the same as the difference between Jones and the season currently tenth on the list, Warren Moon's 1990.
Of course, it is very unlikely that Brady will continue at this pace. How much could he possibly slow down? Brady's best season before this one was probably 2005, so I looked at two possibilities: that Brady's last nine games would match his 2005 performance, and that Brady's last nine games would fall halfway between his current performance and his 2005 performance.
If Brady reverts halfway to his previous best level of play, he still ends the year with the second-best quarterback season since 1960, right behind Jones and ahead of Manning's 2004. He still sets the NFL record with 52 touchdown passes and the completion percentage record at 70.7 percent.
If Brady plays the last nine games exactly like he did in 2005, he throws 42 touchdown passes with a completion percentage of 67.7 percent â?? good numbers, but not records. Those numbers would come out as either the 12th or 13th best quarterback season since 1960. Why 12th or 13th best? Because if Peyton Manning continues at his current pace, he would end up with the 12th best season, right behind his 2006 season, and right ahead of our mythical "Tom Brady who reverts to his 2005 performance."
So Brady is having a very special season, and Manning is having a very special career. Brady could end up number one all-time, but Manning could end up with four seasons in the top 20 (2003, 2004, 2006, 2007), an honor he would share with Steve Young (1992, 1993, 1994, 1998).
