The 2007 Pats caught lightning in a bottle in a way no other team ever has. It is unreasonable to expect any team, any year, any sport, to match that kind of production. Let it rest.
For all their glitz and glamor, the 2007 Pats came to lack something late in the season. For all the same reasons we scoffed at the "Greatest Show on Turf" and the mid-decade Colts teams, the 2007 Pats offense lacked that kind of grit needed to tough out a win in a close game.
Give me the 2003/2004 offenses. Spread the ball, get the TEs involved. Make it count when we drive the ball. That's what I want to see.
