1. The front 7 was amazingly good and was the backbone of both those wins. The Eagles simply could not run the ball and Panthers were pretty much stymied.
2. Reminder of the greatness of Seymour, Bruschi, Vrabel. Ty Warren and Roman Phifer and Rodney Harrison. RH made so many great plays. With all those veterans on defense they were just such a smart team.
3. Seymour was a physical beast, he absolutely crushed Donovan Mcnabb on one sack that look like it had Mcnabb really stunned
3. The Eagles game was a really close tough fought affair in which Patriots depended heavily on Corey Dillon and Kevin Faulk in the first half.
4. Deion Brach was extremely deserving of MVP in Eagles game he was simply amazing and he dominated
5. I remember how bad I felt when Eugene Wilson left during the Eagles game with a broken arm and with Ty Law and Tyrone Poole both injured it left the secondary threadbare with just Asante Samuel (2nd year), Gay and 2 young safeties.
6. I forgot just how strong and physical David Givens was a receiver. It may be no coincidence that he wore number 87, because he was like a receiver in a tight end's body. He made so many BIG BIG catches in the panther's win. I think he is definitely a bit overlooked in his importance to patriots for that SB win.
7. Patriots overcame turnovers in both games with Brady interception at goal line against panthers and 2 fumbles (brady had one in red zone) against eagles.
8. Antoine Smith was critical in SB against panthers, another underrated pats performance.
9. Both SB's, other than Matt Light...no stars on offensive line but they held it together just enough testament to Dante's coaching skills...I remember when Warren Sapp called Russ Hochstein a stub who should not even be on the field against the panthers star DL..but he did pretty well
10. Wow BB looked so much younger..he has really aged a lot over past 13-14 years
11. Adam Vinitierri missed 2 field goals against panthers and announcers were actually questioning his reliability when it came down to that last kick against panthers with 8 seconds left.
11. Simply amazing that with the same QB and entirely different group of players they are on another super bowl run 11 years later.
12. Vrabel had back to back touchdowns in both Super Bowls ..what a clutch guy he was.....
I would love to see him back with Patriots as a coach some day.
