Although i dont like the patriots,its basically haterade coming from you and nothing more,3 super bowls wins in 4 years,the weak schedule includes wins over 6 of the 11 other playoff teams,get real,what the patriots have done over the past few years with the salary cap is unsurpassed.BriteCrawler said:This may be an unpopular opinion around here, but here goes.
I'm really tired of the Pat's being compared to the 72 Dolphins and the 85 Bears. I'm tired of hearing the words "Legendary" and "Belly-Chick" in the same sentence. The Patriots have the WEAKEST schedule of any play-off team. I mean honestly? They played the Dolphins twice, barely beat the Ravens and Eagles...
Sure, a win is a win... but coming from behind in multiple games against sub .500 teams and winning by a field goal multiple times this season has gotten old. That's not impressive by any standards.
I think Tom Brady MIGHT be the 5th best quarterback in the NFL. While Randy Moss is good, I don't think that he's Jerry Rice. I think strength of schedule and advantages play a big part in the "records" this team has accomplished.
The regular season means very little in the grand scope of things. Ask any member of the 72 Dolphins. What they do in the playoffs will forever mark this team as either the "over-rated who couldn't" (which I firmly believe) or the 4th quarter comeback kings of all time.
It's all very hard to stomach watching BellyChick gain praises for what he's done for the franchise... he's the same asshole that got caught cheating at the beginning of the season. Slapped on the wrist by the NFL, and then rehired as the league's top paid coach after the ownership denounced cheating? Oh please.
I may eat my words, but I don't see them getting past the Colts, the Chargers, the Cowboys... if the Eagles figured out how to beat this team, and the guys with actual talent execute, the Pats are just another NFL team... the NFL team with the easiest schedule.
That was last year...We will see this year Bastage I think Hasek is going to be 53 this yearKevan said:Mikey- you forgot Tony Mandarich and The Boz!
I'm trying to remember....where did the RedWings end up in the playoffs last year?
Oh yeah- whooped up on by the #8 seed in the first round.
That's right.
