6 Titles

[Rotorhead]

Be prepared to have company, I am pretty sure we will not be the only team with 6 titles in 2 weeks.

Probably but Rams at least have some skill players on defense

Haha screw NO and that makes up for the phantom pass interference call they got on us. What comes around goes around.

6 titles with the same HC and QB, just hope the Rams pull it off.

[fansince'76]

I heard something similar last year.

Give credit to the Pats then if they do. At least they have a head coach in Bellichick who routinely out-schemes the opposition on a weekly basis and gets his players ready to play better more crisp football, and at least they have a QB in Brady who has an unparalleled competitive edge and a sustained level of excellence unheard of for a QB. That combination has gotten them to a 9th Super Bowl in 18 years and carried a 5-11 supporting cast to the Super Bowl. And yes I know it is blasphemous to credit Bellichick and Brady's success to their own abilities and not solely a weak conference/schedule/division, the refs, Roger Goodell, or cheating, but I don't care. The Pats do what they have to do. Hell if it weren't for the amazing singular abilities of Patrick Mahomes the Pats would have won by double digits

Did I miss something? I thought the 49ers and Cowboys were both out.

Weird, I don't remember the Patriots winning anything. Must not have been very important.

we know how they got them and winning was not part of it ... see my singature ...

It's about time anyway. Truth is that if the Pats win they will be the greatest dynasty in NFL history. Nine Super Bowls and 6 wins. I really don't even care anymore. Maybe Brady ends up with 8 rings. Meanwhile, back to Days of Our Lives...

[Born2Steel]

And If the Pats lose this SuperBowl they will have 6 SuperBowl Losses.

And if Pete Carrol wasn't a moron and the Falcons didn't collapse Brady would be looking at a 3-6 Superbowl record.

It's not the Patriots fault that they are so simply good, while everyone else is so hilariously incompetent. The Pats did absolutely nothing out of the ordinary, and were quite average this season. But they just play football. Hate them because you're tired of them, but besides that, credit where it is due. They're the best of a (very) bad lot in the AFC. Not because they're otherworldly or more talented, but because they're sound and everyone else is high functioning autistic.

If anything, I hate Mike Tomlin and the Steelers more than the Patriots at this point because the Steelers are talented and arrogant when they have done nothing worthwhile this decade to warrant that arrogance. From Tomlin, to Ben, to Antonio Brown, to the rest of the coaching staff.

This is 100% correct. The Patriots just did the same thing they always do. They are prepared. They have a game plan, they throw in a new wrinkle to make the opponent panic more than they already are and pretty much every team plays into their hands. They get scared, play a zone prevent defense, rush the minimum amount and the Pats take what you give them, put together 8 minute drives and you lose.

You forgot the other thing they do better than almost anyone else -- force the pace of play. I think they ran like 90-95 offensive plays. Even with the extra drive in overtime factored in that is just insane.

Fixed it.

Yep. They take as little or as much as you give them and just grind it out with a few runs, a few passes to one of their 4 backs out of the backfield, short out routes to move the chains and the occasional sit down in the zone completion...move the chains, put together an 8-minute drive...nice calm drive and boom. TD.

Great post. And it's not that the rest of the AFC is bad but the teams that have the talent to beat the Pats just aren't disciplined and coached well enough. The Pats almost NEVER make a mistake when the game is on the line and every other team does. You won't catch a Patriot lining up in the neutral zone when the game is on the line. How many times has Brady thrown a late pick to end a game? I know he did against Haden this year but that wasn't a must win game for them like it was for us. I'm talking about the playoffs. He almost never does. The only reason they lost last year's Superbowl was a great strip/sack by the Eagles. They just DO NOT make mistakes.

If you replaced Tomlin with Belichick back in 2008 we would probably have 10+ titles right now.

I have the Rams picked to win this game even though they shouldn't be in the Super Bowl. If the Rams don't have the yips, they could beat up the Patriots pretty easily.

The Rams have a great defense that should be able to put plenty of pressure on Brady. The Patriots offensive line is okay, but the Rams have a fantastic defensive line that is so good at being so disruptive. If they play calling is right, they'll be able to rush him and sack him multiple times or make him throw the ball away. Not only should they rush the Hell out of Brady, but they should only play man coverage. Its no secret that Brady can torch zone coverage so play man the entire game and double cover Gronk even though he may be a former shell of himself. They could also shut the run game down as they only gave up 49 yards rushing on average in the regular season and only gave up 48 yards rushing in the game yesterday.

The Rams offense could be more of a question mark, but they should be able to move the ball freely against the Patriot's defense. Their defense isn't good and the teams have been able to move up and down the field on the Patriots over the past couple of years. Just move the ball down the field and then have good play calling in the redzone and the Rams should win.

I don't know how many 3rd and long the Pats had last night but it seemed like a bunch. It's the same Pats offense year after year. This is just with 1:57 left in the 4th and OT

[Rotorhead]

I give credit to them, if we played the fundamentals half as good as the Pats . . . but mostly if we new how to put together a game plan and scheme to beat other teams we would have at least as much success this past decade as them. The Pats simply out schemed the Chiefs in the first half and their was no fix until after halftime, which ended up being too late. In OT the Chiefs Def was just too gassed to get the stop.

The best quality of Belicheat is he can come up with schemes to hide their weaknesses, year after year. Something Tomlin has never done one time. Here to hoping we can draft or FA a good enough CB and ILB to get us into the big game next season.

[Steeler-in-west]

I like the Rams chances.

Even if the pats do pull it off not all super bowl wins are the same. The game is so different than it was in the 70’s. We’re halfway toward playing flag football these days. Even since the Steelers last Super Bowl win in 09 the game has changed a lot.

[Shoes]

I think the Pats success is a clear example of what good coaching is when compared to most NFL teams. Most people couldn't think of an exceptional player on their team outside of Brady, Gronk and Edelman. While most teams go for the "Wow players" the pats go with good players and transform them into the players who played before them. When you watch them play it looks exactly like the team 10 or more years ago, just with different players with no-names. Look at their o line, Brady most often has all the time in the world to throw the ball and rarely has a grass stain on his uniform. The running backs and WR's the same, the defense and a new DC they don't miss a beat. They have good leadership in the coaching and players ranks and grit. I think Edelman would crawl for the 1st down if you cut his legs off. Little things built on a good foundation is where it starts, which why I'm impressed with the Rams McVay. Should be a good SB

[Fire Goodell]

good luck to the rams but this won't be a game I'll be watching. I've been boycotting every Patriots super bowl after their 2nd game vs the giants

You won't be watching very many Super Bowls then...

Nope would rather not. My hate for the cheats is greater than my love for the game

[El-Gonzo Jackson]

Does it really matter how many titles another team has? I'm only concerned how many the Steelers have and when they might win the next one.

Until then, I will just enjoy watching great football games when I can.
