Statistically, the 2007 and 2004 Patriots are the two most dominant teams to ever play pro football

It was one of the best ever, because it was so efficient and so good/lucky at avoiding TOs late in the season. As Football Outsiders put it:

Why the f*ck did they lose to the jets... what the hell 2010 had championship season written all over it

The 2007 team was one crazy play away from being the consensus best team of all time.

I think that was the best Pat's team ever. I may be wrong, but that team might have been the first team ever to win a Super Bowl after losing their two starting CBs to injuries. A 2nd year 4th round corner (Assante Sanuel ) and a rookie free agent (Randall Gay) took over for Ty Law and Tyrone Poole, both wound up on IR. That to me is mind boggling. And also made Corey Dillon an important factor due to his great running (and clock killin) helped keep that defense fresh.

Had some great defensive players to help make up for the loss of those 2 corners. Beating Indy 20-3 in the 1st playoff game, a team who scored the most points ever in an NFL season (up to that point), just shocking. Then to march into Pittsburgh and crush them by putting up 34 points + a pick 6 by Rodney Harrison, wow. I remember Brady was absolutely deadly in that game, hitting Branch all game including a perfect throw on a bomb pass for a TD. That team was the best Patriot's team, hands down, followed up by the 2003 team (which started 2-2 then won 15 games in a row !!), then the 2014 team, then the 2001 team. I don't count the 2007 team. I don't care about ELO (great band) or whatever the hell this article is talking about.

Think about those 2003 and 2004 teams, a combined record of 34-4. Holy schnickes, that is ridiculously dominant.

Hate to nitpick but the 98 Vikings had the highest scoring offense ever until the 07 pats broke the record. Everything else is great

3rd down defense.

The 2007 team was one crazy play away from being the consensus best team of all time.

And was one crazy Gronk away from being truly unbeatable...but alas he was doing crazy Gronk stuff in high school at the time..

The 2007 team was one crazy play away from being the consensus best team of all time.

And the sad thing is, Pats fans will never be able to recall that season without being reminded of that one single play. The 07' team has a stigma that will never go away.

Poor Pats Football can be a very unfair sport

It's a long season, and the Patriots are only a quarter of the way through it, but quarterback Tom Brady is on his Deflategate revenge tour and has the offense firing on all cylinders. In fact, the offense is playing so well that the Sunday's 30-6 win at Dallas helped the Patriots break a franchise record for most points scored through four games — previously held by the Pats' 2007 team.

The 2015 Patriots have scored 149 points in four games, edging the 2007 team's record by just one point. Brady and the offense are averaging 37.3 points per game, which is good for second in the league. If they keep up this pace, the 2015 Patriots and 2007 Patriots will be linked for weeks to come.
