Thats the way I have heard it.
I believe it was the Bengals (maybe it was the Colts game) game in 01 and there was some scrambling around as they missed the some of the individual announcings and than they just all ran out together and since they liked the way it looked they kept it up all year.
So it initially was an accident but than they did it all season and actually had to fight a little to be able to do it in the SB. And by fight I mean they said you can announce it how you want but we will be coming out together.
It turned out the announcer anounced "Chosing to be introduced as a team" and the rest was history.
I was lucky to be at that SB and me and my father were wondering in the hours leading up whether they would come out as a team or not and when they did we went nuts.
You're correct, it was the Bungals game. First time I was able to see the Pats in person in years, and I watched them get spanked.
Little did I know what was to come.....
