Instead of re-watching this Super Bowl any time soon I’ll defer to Greg Bedard’s breakdown which is always excellent. On the offensive side especially I think it’s clear that there need to be some new threats added and maybe that will start with Ridley and Vereen.
And the crazy ride for Patriots fans continues.
No one will ever feel sorry for a Patriots fan. But our experience with this team over the last decade had us see Super Bowl success early and often, then only to suffer big game defeat after big game defeat ever since.
The 2011 Patriots were without a doubt my favorite team since 2007. And what excites me most is that if you truly believe that defenses win championships then you have to be very happy that players like Spikes, Chung, Mayo, McCourty, Arrington, and maybe even Moore just got the experience of playing in their first Super Bowl.
I am excited about this base long term!
No one will argue that there aren’t areas in need of a talent infusion, but they have the draft picks and the cap space to address those areas.
I really feel for Tom Brady. I know he wanted this one bad, and it was there for the taking and I’m sure it’s eating him up right now. But ultimately 2011 will be one of the more positively regarded seasons in his career, with another AFC Championship and record passing yards.
But the truth that everyone knows is that after all the bullshit about Gisele, Butterfingers, and legacies dies down we’ll be right back to where we always are, with the Patriots again favored to win the Super Bowl, sitting with multiple high round draft picks, and a young defense that’s just scratching the surface of what they’ll do in the next five years.
So until then, whatevs…

Brady’s “legacy” (a word that should be buried in the sports lexicon graveyard, right next to “respect”) is completely and totally intact. Brady has been in the league for 12 seasons and played in five Super Bowls. Since becoming a starter in 2001, he has played in the Super Bowl for 45 percent of his career. Much seems to be made of the fact that the Patriots haven’t won a Super Bowl in seven seasons – a statistic that underscores just how awry the culture has gone. True New Englanders remember tearing down goal posts for just making the playoffs. Moreover, as the culture moves toward assessing who failed instead of respecting the athletic battleground, the games themselves lose value.

I’m glad to see a few of these articles popping up today. I was beginning to think it was just the Patriots homer fandom in me that made me feel that everyone was piling on this Patriots team that exceeded expectations of even a few weeks ago.
