To sum up:

Our WR unit today (without Branch) is better than 2001's.

Our TE unit today isn't even in the same galaxy as 2001's.

Our RB unit today isn't in the same UNIVERSE as 2001's.

Any questions?

Isn't our O-line and D-line better this year?

OK, I have another question.

What about Brady compared to then and now?

Any questions?
Why the comparisons to one of the least talented SB champtions?? to a team that BB has said that he was surprised to win a SB with???

Agreed. With this logic we would be talking about how the Patriots plan to make it four consecutive Super Bowl titles. This team right now isn't as good as it was two years ago.

I know, that was the realization that was so stunning about all this, I'm gad I missed most of today if this is how things are going.

I have to agree. It's actually been really annoying.

Hey, the Ravens won the Superbowl with Trent Dilfer, dump Brady and save money! 2001 was a special team, they weren't all that talented but they just wanted it that much more than the others. That doesn't mean we can always get away with that. (ref: See 2002!)
