One of the best throws and catches any Patriot has ever made.
I've seen 2 guys post the intentional safety against Denver. I may be wrong but I beleive that was a ST's play (shoulda read this thread first), but if I'm right you guys get a mulligan and get to pick again.
As far as offense, Patten to Brown against the Colts-it was a thing of beauty.
Defense-Smelling salts anyone?

The Patriots finished 9-7, in a three way tie for first place in the AFC East that the Jets won in a tie-breaker that season - not bad but it was the last time the Patriots would let another team control their destiny in getting into the playoffs.

Defense: Bryan Cox's monstorous hit on Jerome Pathon during the Colts second offensive play during Brady's first start in Week 3 of 01. I really think this play gets underrated in the turnaround of 01. The D played nastier and with a mean streak the rest of the game and season. Also set the tone for the Patriots later physical domination of Peyton Manning and the Colts offense in 03 and 04.
Offense: The 60 Yard Deep Post pattern from Brady to Branch for a TD against the Steelers to make it a quick 10-0 in the 1st quarter of the 04 AFC Championship. Brady beautifully looks off Polamalu (running too far upfield to cover Patten on a crossing route) and then throws a perfect ball to Branch who had beaten DeShea Townsend. Set the tone for the game after a 2ns Steelers turnover in a row to start the game and silenced Joey Porter and those stupid and obnoxios terrible towels. Just an absolutley beautiful and perfect passing play.
