The whole notion of controlling your own destiny is flawed.

Are you sure that your notion of what "controlling your own destiny" isn't flawed? It just means that you just need to win your games, and what happens in other games doesn't matter. Yes, your opponents matter, but if you win, then you have "controlled" the situation.

I'm more of a skeptic than a pessimist. Anyway, it's not about outlook so much. It's more about quantum physics.

Patriots have their 21 game home winning streak snapped by the Chiefs. I seem to remember the last team to beat them at home…
