6th title tho no?
Of course. My comment had nothing to do with past achievements (I have not forgotten them and how lucky we as a fan base are) but instead looking at the existing team today moving forward.

At some point, it becomes almost impossible to field a Super Bowl team without some elite talent -- even if that talent is prone to injury. We can't just say losing Gronk will somehow improve the team because, as the Super Bowl demonstrated, he is a guy who can make those low percentage, crucial catches.Not down at all. Gronk is a great TE, but a bad Patriot. Expensive, made of glass, and unreliable is not what the Patriots need. I am confident his replacement will be 70% as good for 10% as much 150% of the time. #InBillWeTrust
He is Michael Jordan at TE. He will be back before you know it. He ain't done yet. You heard it here first.
I have some hopefully temporal concerns right now. But I try to remind myself, 8 AFCCG in a row, and the AFC is still not that competitive in my opinion.Whole off season has me down, to be honest. Yes yes I know it’s typical BB but the lack of free agent moves, lack of trades, lack of keeping our own folks, and the first of the trio retiring is a real bummer.
We also had a sniff of a Patriots defense that you could be proud of for the first time in 15ish years just to lose a bunch of key pieces and the DC immediately after.
All will be well, just hard to be excited at this moment.
Not really. I think Gronk had a great career but it was time to hang it up. He was done playing at a high level.
