The last time we played the Titans in January...

Think this game is one that often gets forgotten about in terms of memorable playoff wins during the BB Brady era.

That was a fun team to watch.

03 was the grittiest of the early dynasty teams without a doubt.

I remember that was the game where they said the Titans had some superstition that you had to play in the same clothes all season so they couldn't wear warm clothes. It was one of the coldest games in history and the Titans looked like they wanted to go inside.

I was at that game. Lost track of how many layers I had on. Thank god the original wind forecast was wrong or there would have been a lot of frostbite.

The trek from the gates up to the nosebleeds had me sweating like hell (because of all the layers), but there was no cotton or anything (wife's a winter hiker and knows all the "rules") so that didn't hurt once I cooled off after being in my seat.

Had to laugh at the people buying beers though. The beer in the neck of the bottle would be frozen by the time they got back to their seats.

I remember Bennett flat out dropped that last pass - really should have had it.

Sounds like a Jeff Fisher coached team alright.

Been a long time since I've watched that game.

Daniel Graham could of been a goat in that game. Not a good one, the scape kind. The one drop and the other mistimed in either the route or the throw. However, that ball mist of felt like a rock block of ice that night.

Adam V made another spectacular kick. Ofcourse the 3 others will always get the air time and accolades.

Bennett was a really good receiver in the day. That play he missed I do remember. One of those plays you wake up and realize its all good, Patriots covered. Wish I could say the same a few years later on Ohara's hold play that wasnt called.

Good stuff thanks, gonna go back and watch that 3 Games of Glory pretty soon.

Not to mention Bethel Johnson making one of the only 4 useful plays he ever had in his career (that one, the layout grab against Seattle, and those two (IIRC) kick returns against IND in The Goalline Stand Game.)

03 was the grittiest of the early dynasty teams without a doubt.

They were gritty, no argument from me, but I also gotta give a shout out to that 2004 team that held the Record Setting Colts to 3 points with our Secondary reduced to a couple rubber bands, some bailing wire, and a rolled up newspaper.

McNair played out of his mind that day.

One thing I remember: Zach Piller telling everyone he ws freaking out because he couldn't feel his feet.

Then after the game, Piller called the Patriots a weak untalented scrub team. He was embarrassed to lose to them, and he was shocked the Patriots had even made the playoffs they were so bad. He said that most of the teams the Titans had played that year were better than the Patriots.

This game is very memorable to me.

Pretty much every NE opponent and opposing fan said that after every game NE won all season long. Drove them all crazy. NE didn't have many dominant wins but somehow almost always found a way to grind out a W.

That YouTube channel is great. There are a ton of Pats playoff games on it.

I remember they let us bring blankets and comforters into the stadium. I still have the handkerchief Fleet Bank gave out that night.

When people around me were complaining about how cold it was last year versus Houston, I just had a silent chuckle.

That D was stiff (jokes go here).

 

[letekro]

both those teams were tough as nails.

 

[DarrylS]

McGinest 3 sacks, Vrabel 1 sack and Rodney with an int... Vinateri with the game winning field goal.

Tom Brady steady game with no mistakes in bitter cold...

[PScottman]

a rolled up newspaper.

That we dutifully slapped the soiling himself Manning with.
