All depends if the AFC steps up and take it from them which is highly unlikely. Full of bunch of fraudulent QB besides MahomesChiefs are going for the 3 peat.
Pats would’ve 3 peated in 2005 had Bill not gone Jerry Krause on the team. Not re-signing Ty Law was a massive mistake. Started the 10 year drought.
Health is the main issue. A healthy Burrow and Bengals are their only kryptonite.They have a shot. All depends if the AFC steps up and take it from them which is highly unlikely. Full of bunch of fraudulent QB besides Mahomes
lol they had to pay Brady and he became one of the highest paid QB’s in the NFLChiefs are going for the 3 peat.

Burrow has been seriously injured twice in his four year career because he’s had one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL.Health is the main issue. A healthy Burrow and Bengals are their only kryptonite.
This is it.Burrow has been seriously injured twice in his four year career because he’s had one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL.
Last year the Bengal’s D also fell off a cliff, unless their front office makes some great offseason moves they’ve probably missed their window.
It’s a team game, Mahomes has the best team in the NFL around him. Harbaugh is going to the Chargers and will prove QB magic doesn’t matter nearly as much as “team.”
Yeah the "drought" wasn't a series of bad years rebuilding etc. They were one miracle catch away & possibly a Welker catch away from winning two titles. The 2011 Patriots probably would have had the worst defense for any Super Bowl winner ever.lol they had to pay Brady and he became one of the highest paid QB’s in the NFL
The ten year drought of most playoff wins in history and an undefeated season in 2007 right up until the super bowl. lol
BB’s gone… you don’t have to be scared anymore.
Came with Andy Reid hiring Spagnuolo to run the defense and “magic” they win their first ring…This is it.
Before, they had an elite offense and a not so good D. It cost them a few SB trips. If the offense wasn't clicking, they didn't win. The offense isn't explosive as it once was. And certainly trading Hill is a reason why. But now they have an elite D to offset any off days from the offense. And there were many off days last year.
It’s not coincidence the Patriots won 3 rings when Brady was on his rookie contract and at the end when he purposefully agreed to take less.Yeah the "drought" wasn't a series of bad years rebuilding etc. They were one miracle catch away & possibly a Welker catch away from winning two titles.

Football is a game of inches. And the Patriots have been on both sides. One could argue the Patriots could have been 9-0 in SB's during the dynasty years. The flip side is that they very easily could have lost the first two Super Bowls had they not had the ball last. Or, easily lost the Seattle SB if Seattle is smarter. So they could be 2-7 in SB's under BB/TB too (I don't think they were ever in serious jeopardy of losing SB 39 & 53).
Yep. And they fired the old DC after losing in overtime of AFC title game. I don't think many teams would have made that change.Came with Andy Reid hiring Spagnuolo to run the defense and “magic” they win their first ring…
It seemed up until 06, the defense was the strength of the team. Then, it was all offense. The problem was that there was a lack of balance. See the 2011 team. Finally, in 2014, it seemed they had a very good offense and defense.It’s not coincidence the Patriots won 3 rings when Brady was on his rookie contract and at the end when he purposefully agreed to take less.
Managing the salary cap is team building.
Yeah, it coincides with Tom agreeing to play on a series of one year extensions for about 15 million per. The team had a lot to spend on the surrounding team.It seemed up until 06, the defense was the strength of the team. Then, it was all offense. The problem was that there was a lack of balance.

You again miss the forest for the trees.It’s a team game, Mahomes has the best team in the NFL around him. Harbaugh is going to the Chargers and will prove QB magic doesn’t matter nearly as much as “team.”
Kelce is a perennial all pro. His other receivers were solid if unspectacular, but we’ve seen Brady and others win it all with 7th/8th round or UDFA WR’s… so you clearly don’t need superweapon WR’s. Isaiah Pacheco is a stud, so the weapons in general were really good.You again miss the forest for the trees.
Mahomes did not have the "best team" around him. His receivers were pitiful, only saved by the Pats receivers.
Repeat after me; Andy Reid is the best offensive mind in football, Mahomes had one of the most expensive and best lines in football. The Chiefs defense last season was ranked 3rd best in points allowed per drive and 6th best in fewest yards allowed.Repeat after me: Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL.
You believe in the tooth fairy… it’s cute and childlike, but not very truthful.That was the difference on offense.
