To me this is already a good season

[1960Pats]

Not many people expected the Pats to get this far, including some of our own fans. To me this season already qualifies as a success.

Since when did any Pats fan start lending any credence to the media's opinion of our Tommy?
Sure you aren't a wagon jumping displaced Iggles fan?

Pretty sure I'm not an Iggles fan.

But apparently not so sure about the wagon jumping

Not a wagon jumper. Patriots fan since 04.

No. I've only been a Pats fan since I started following football in 04.

So, you started liking the Patriots after they cemented their dynasty with their 3rd Superbowl in 4 years. I don't know if that makes you a bandwagon jumper or not, probably just young...But, you do see the the problem with your statement, right?

If I were a bandwagon jumper wouldn't I have stopped cheering for them between 05-13? After all, they went without a SB in that time.

success is relative . for such a team that raised the bar so high not reaching the SB can't be considered a successful season , at least not for me

I think we met our MINIMUM expectation this year which was reaching the AFC title game.

From here on...it's all gravy even if we lose 40-3 on Sunday...at least when we kick off...we will be ONE OF THE ONLY THREE REMAINING NFL TEAMS.......

Can't complain.....but my expecations will be higher next year, IMO...given all the draft capital we have...a solid OL (with Wynn coming back)...good RB corps.... just some defensive play makers and a WR or two....
