OK, we didn't win three SB's in a row. Bummer. Big Time. Denver still hurts and will feel even worse when we're watching them play on Sunday. But no one else ever three-peated in the SB either.
However, there is a record that the Pats can match in the 2006 season: The Steelers won four Lombardis within the six year span of the 1974--79 seasons. No one has come close to that record: it took Montana and his 49'ers NINE years to accomplish the same between the 81 and 89 seasons; the 'Boys only got four over a 19 year period with two different teams.
I am incredibly optimistic about next season, even before the Draft and Free Agent signings, and can see another 14-win season coming our way with a better-rested team and a decent schedule (vs "Murderers' Row" from this year's start). BB and Pioli have loaded up on draft choices and the Patriots are still the best game in town for a top skill position Free Agent who's looking to cap his career with a ring (a la Corey Dillon last year).
So, who else is on board for "Four in Six in 2006?"
