Even after a playoff win, the Patriots can’t escape their most annoying label

If you ask NFL insider Dan Graziano, Sunday night was another championship-level performance by The Schedule out in Foxboro.

Seriously. The New England Patriots just won a playoff game over the Los Angeles Chargers by 13 points as 3.5-point favorites, and the national media remains unimpressed.

Just wait for the snide remarks next week, if the Patriots are able to get past the fifth-seeded Houston Texans, who could be without No. 1 wide receiver Nico Collins after he was carted off the field from the sideline with his second concussion of the season.
