I thought this season represents our best opportunity to pick up the 4th Lombardi.
At 29, Brady is at the peak of his career.
We have the easiest schedule ever to pick the home-field advantage.
The competition is "ripe for the pickin'". Rivers and Cutler are still in their formative stage. Palmer is returning from a severe injury. Steelers are a downward spiral. And Colts are adjusting without James.
Instead of taking advantage of the situation, however, I thought we squandered away this opportunity.
We have our generation's "Joe Montana" and we took away his "John Taylor" and "Jerry Rice". We then promptly surrounded him with rejects from other teams.
What's bothering me is that we just wasted another year of Brady, and the competition is not getting easier.
In the future, I'm afraid we will look back to this season and regret the loss of an incredible opportunity to win our 4th Super Bowl.

I thought at the beginning of the season this was a pretty easy schedule. But now they win all the Strength of Victory tiebreakers, so it turned in to a pretty tough schedule. Last time I looked are they not still on the inside track to the AFCE and the playoffs? I hadn't noticed that they had packed their bags and went home.
