A rocky road, but Patriots made it work – The Boston Globe

Great season recap from Greg Bedard that really puts a nice bow on the 2011 season. We’re slowly turning the page as well, getting into draft prep, and feeling a little less depressed about the Super Bowl loss with every day that passes.

One thing I’m sure of is that no fan of any other team has had a more thrilling ride over the last decade than Patriots fans. We’ve won the big one a few times, and fallen incredibly short a few times, but overall we’ve won more games that anyone and I think we’ve had more fun too.

And the best part? We’ll be right back in the mix next year with what I’m already sure will be a more talented team than the one that fell just short this year. Doesn’t ensure that we’ll take that last step in 2012, but we’ll certainly be in the mix and as a fan that’s all you can ask for.
