Turn that round - If Russell was so great, why did they struggle against a sub- .500 Hawks team? Coming out of a western division that was so weak, no one had a winning record?

Brady is the King of Boston Sports. He has achieved more than any other player, in a league where the goal posts moved every year because of their successes. The Patriots win in spite of the league changing the rules trying to bring them back to par.
The competition is over. And its not even close. There is Brady, then there is everyone else.
