2001 Championship - New England Patriots Forums

I just re-watched the original Three Games to Glory DVD to try to make myself feel a little better about this week. What an absolutely incredible playoff run. A couple comments:

- David Patten -- insane.
- Troy Brown -- unbelievable.
- Antowaine Smith -- I miss that guy. He just ran downhill when it was playoff time.
- They say the Pats got all the breaks in those games, but it isn't true. They certainly got their share, but the Steelers in particular benefitted from some serious breaks that the Pats had to overcome.
- Bunch of no-names on our D-line (plus rookie Seymour) played like Pro Bowlers throughout. Incredible.
- Charlie Weiss -- can we get him back please?

What an awesome season. Despite the domination of 2003 and especially 2004, this one will always be the best.

I feel better now.... A little.

Nothing will ever compare to the 2001 season. Pure Magic.

Is there a Three Games to Glory DVD for 2001?

The only thing I've been able to find is the one hour highlights-if there is a Three Games to Glory where do I find this?

I did watch the highlight video last week and I agree with your points. Antawan Smith really did get it done in the playoffs I agree.

That was a wonderful season- the best one of all for me.

2001 - was a magical season, I remember I thought this would be a playoff team, and then Drew went down, I remember watching Brady during a pre season game against Carolina.. I felt he was going to be a solid player.. I went to the Pats/Colts game with modest expectations, and was happy with the win.. I sensed something special all yr, and it was just a special yr..

2003 - Felt we were a super bowl team, and we were

2004- Knew we were going to be a super bowl team, and it was the most talented team we had...
