Patriots In Yet Another Super Bowl

[pittpnthrs]

I'm jealous, but its getting old. Hopefully Brady retires soon.

 

[Cyrus12]

He only has 4 fingers left after this year...he wins at least 2 more.

It astounds me to no end how one human being can elevate average players to such heights of greatness year after year after year. There's nothing dynamic or powerful about the Patriots as a team. You take Brady away and they are an average AFC team.

I guess you can argue that's the case for a lot of teams, but it especially holds true with the Patriots. The Amedolas, the Edleman's of the world...These are ho-hum average guys on most teams. With Brady they are unstoppable.

Kudos I guess, but enough already. Can't WAIT for the Patriots to be irrelevant again.

I never got to see Ali, Babe Ruth, and only saw a little of Jordan, but I did get to witness Brady.

I saw all of them.

You saw Babe Ruth? How old are you? If that's true, are they truly the greats at their sports?

 

[Cyrus12]

We all saw Charlie Whitehurst...legendary!

Throw in Reggie Jackson, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird and Nolan Ryan.

Eight Super Bowls in seventeen seasons is just ridiculous.

It's very much the combination of Brady and Belichick tbh. Coaching is colossal in the post-season.

Eagles in the NFC are a prime example.

I'm pretty sure that if you paired Brady up with a coach with scruples and put him into a division where he didn't get six byes a year for his entire career, you'd have Matt Hasselbeck with a dreamier chin dimple.

To me, the most impressive thing these Patriots have done is capitalize on their structural advantage to the hilt. Not as easy as it sounds.

 

[chris98251]

Eagles as much as I hate seeing them win have the mentality we used to have and swag.

 

[RolandDeschain]

Backup QB hanging 38 and probably more to come on the Vikings' "elite" defense, lmao.

Man, people need to stop counting on raw number stats so much. There were signs that both the Vikings and Jaguars defenses were not anywhere near as elite as they looked on paper.

 

[Exittium]

Well this MIGHT be one of what 2? Bradys in that doesnt a bunch of controversy surrounding it .. so far... either way bleh if they win im done with this joke called the "NFL" itll mean as much as WWE to me and thats = Shit

 

[BigBill1945]

I will be in Vegas during the Superbowl. I do not plan on watching it. I will find something more constructive to do. If I bet a hundred dollars on the Pats I would probably make about 2 dollars. No drama there.

Their record without Brady is still pretty good. You take Brady away I think NE still wins games. You take Bill away, not so much.

BS you would have to be 150 years old to remember Ruth playing. He was playing 100 years ago.

Maybe he is a time traveler???

I’m spit balling here...... 8)

 

[seahawkfreak]

Late 80's Niners would put a beating on this team. Along with 86 Giants, late 80's Redskins and mid 80's Bears.

 

[lobohawk]

It’s tiresome, but give them credit for doing their job.

Still bugs me that they’re almost guaranteed playoff berth, and not a WC berth, every year. Name the last quality division team. The couple years the Jets had Pennington? Even they weren’t that good. Before that it was Jim Kelly and the Bills in 93 (cough, cough...before Bill and Brady).

Seems most of the other divisions have surges of real competition arise. Look at NFC West, it’s championship caliber coming from all parts. And while it helps toughen those team, it’s an odds game. Quality teams always in the playoffs, will always win more.

The Hooded One is a master coach for sure and Brady top shelf. Worked out for the Pats. But I remember when they were doormats and they’ll get there again when Bill is gone.
