We as fans got to experience total euphoria watching the Patriots win those 3 titles back in the early 2000's, but we've also been on the opposite side of the spectrum over the last 7 years feeling the sad, grim reality of them getting knocked out of the playoffs, and twice losing a Super Bowl in the final seconds of the game, one of which ended their quest for a perfect season. We've experienced all the ups and downs, and older fans can obviously attest to that more than I can at 30 years old, but I really want to see them win just 1 more, and not to just add to the collection of rings and lombardis (as sweet as that would be), but more so to stick it to all those fans that have taken shots with BS like Spygate and what not.. you know the people im talking about, the casual fans that just regurgitate what they see on ESPN and you can't actually have a conversation with them about football.
I really think we are about to witness something special again. Just think of the youth of the D, but that has now had several years together.. and all these young LBs that have been groomed into their roles and can start to unleash more complex schemes. A guy like Jamie Collins can come in and contribute right away as a pass rushing specialist because the rest of the defense has started to establish that consistency and can be the leaders to line everyone up where they need to be in order to execute more complex game plans. If Chandler Jones can take the next step, he is going to be getting most of the attention on that right side, so a guy like Collins could make a difference on passing downs because we only need him in a limited role, we don't need him to be Superman and be a fixture just yet, he has time to groom.
I think our defense is right on the verge of surprising the league. Everyone wants to focus so much on our lack of depth at WR and what not, but our offense is fine.. Its good enough to compete with anyone on Sunday, but that isn't where this team has had its problems... They need to get back to those championship level defenses that created turnovers and stopped other teams in big time situations. If the defense can just come together, like I really believe it can and is about to happen, the offense will do more than its fair share of the lifting.
Brady has worked with Rache Caldwell and Jabar Gaffney as his #1 and #2, with average tight ends and average running backs and was able to come within 1 minute of going to another SB. This 2013 offense is a lot more potent than that 2006 offense was.. It has a strong running game, stout offensive line, monster tight ends to work the inside of the field and it does have some veterans at WR in Slater, Edelman, Jenkins and Amendola (who has been in McDaniels system before as well), although they aren't stars but they are contributors that can also help the young Dobson and Boyce along in their progression as well.. and thats where you win football games, from the inside out, and down the middle as belichick would say. This team is built to grind on you and wear you down while also being able to deliver serious shots and put up some points throughout the game, especially if given 1-2 more opportunities from the defense with turnovers.
It sure would be nice to see BB and Brady hoist that trophy up one last time as a symbolic middle finger to all the doubters, haters and all of the people that have been trying so hard to tear their legacy down to shreds and discredit what they were able to accomplish and the things that we all emotionally experienced and were proud of as fans.
Just 1 more guys, just 1 more to shut them all up! :rocker:
