It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Entitled as it may sound : because of their tremendous success, it’s SB win or bust for this high achieving group. One day, who knows when, it’ll not be this way. Our expectations will change. And that’s fine.
For now, any season that’s doesn’t end in confetti for NE is a little disappointing. Having said that, yesterday’s performance was nice to see ! I’m not sure this squad is consistent enough to duplicate four more quarters vs very tough competition. I hope the oldies but goodies can pull it off...
8 straight conference appearances, 10 straight division titles... both those achievements matter to me.Just as the title states. Barring a 28-3 type choke job (Unlikely), they've exceeded my expectations. I am a happy fan. Obviously I'll be dissapointed for a day or two if they lose Sunday. But I'll realize they overcame alot this year.
Your thoughts on this being a successful season?
I still can’t get over the Miami loss which would have made a lot of difference. They need to beat the chiefs for me to say it has been a success. Super bowl is a toss up. I don’t mind if the rams or saints win.

And if we win we will be only the third team in super bowl era to play in three straight.Yep. They matter to me too. Now, I won't say I am "content" or "satisfied" if they lose Sunday. Just saying I will sit back and look at the glass half full.
It's not easy to win the division ten straight times. It also isn't easy to get this far this often. We are definitely spoiled.

DolphinsI know the Bills is one. Who is the other team that made three straight. Vikings?
Lombardi or bust has clouded our vision..
The Pats have been so dominant for 18 years that we are essentially treated like the defending champs every year.
Brady has “only” won 5. That means 12 seasons he failed?
Pats have dominated the NFL his whole run. And history will take all his SB appearances, division titles, games won plYofffs and regulR season into his GOATNESD
I want the Lombardi but this is a great season.
Dolphins
Afc east teamsRight!! Lost to Dallas in SB 6. Beat the Skins & Vikes in SB 7 & 8.
I actually think free agency made it easier for Belichick and Adams...Even more impressive to do it in the free agency era.
They made the final 4 again. That's always a great season.
I wouldn't be mad if they lose on Sunday. I think they'll win though and do it convincingly.
