The Tale of Tom Brady and Johnny Foxborough | The MMQB with Peter King

A brief excerpt:
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Super Bowl MVPs were leaving the team cafeteria when Bill Belichick stopped them for an impromptu coaching moment that neither could have anticipated. This was during training camp in August 2005, six months after New England had won its third championship in four years.
Deion Branch, the MVP in Super Bowl 39, and Tom Brady, twice a Super Bowl MVP before him, had been connecting like never before. “For three days of practice, I think we got up to like 50-some completions,” Branch recalls.
Belichick took notice … and he didn’t like it.
