When did you know?

The Charger thrashing on 9/16 sent up the antennae that there was something pretty potent coming out of Foxboro, but I really got excited after they beat the Cowboys. Every game since that win in Dallas has been more stressful for the bride and me than the last.

I was totally afraid the Chargers would upset the apple cart in the AFCCG. They didn't.

The Patriots know what to do to win this game, and if I am as psyched up as I know I am, and if the postings on this board prove you guys are totally psyched, what must it be like in that locker room, in those team meetings, and on the practice field for the team.

I think they will be focused, and I think they will deliver..BIG TIME.

I knew in the morning of day 2 of the NFL 2007 draft. When I woke up turned on the Radio, heard the news then went online to verify, I KNEW.:rocker:

disclaimer, I felt the same way when they got Dillon.

Also there's still one more game to go. So .....

When Moss runs by 3 Jets and scores on a Brady Bomb.

Well, not that we KNOW anything YET but, I have to agree with this one. That bomb in game one was one of the prettiest play's I've ever seen from players in a Pats uniform. I remember (even in the fog of my brew-clouded mind) muttering to myself, and to anyone around me - "my god, this is something that is going to be special".

Did I know it would lead us here? Can't say that, but I knew we'd witness something magical this season FOR SURE.

When JG caught that ball in the corner of the endzone vs the Ravens.

The Pittsburgh game when Brady got in Anthony Smith's face and started jawing at him. I knew this is a team that you don't mess with and will not be denied.

That Baltimore game had me on pins and needles though. It was such an adrenaline rush thinking "there goes the streak" only to have New England rise up and snatch the victory. To think the Ravens had the game WON if not for the Billick time out call. Craziness. Thanks coach

Adam Schefter reports the Patriots are close to a deal for Randy Moss.

 

[NormZauchin]

That's the question. When did you know?

Personally, I'd say right after the Colts game.

I'm not Nostradamus, so I'd never say I "knew" the outcome of a sporting event or season in advance. But I would say that after the defeat of the Colts I felt that it was a possibility and after the win over the Steelers that it was likely.

I gotta say it was so much better being at that game. I would not have survived if I had to watch it at home with the broadcasters, etc. I can't imagine what they were saying that night.

When Brady hit Gaff for the TD all of the Pats fans in my row were just jumping up and down, hugging and screaming. It was totally awesome. AT home, I would have just let out a sigh of relief and continued to pace.

April - day 2 of the draft when it was announced the Patriots acquired Randy Moss for a 4th round pick

hmm, well, i KNEW it after we beat the giants (the first time...LOL-maybe a little premature)

but i first thought of it a couple of days after spygate, before the SD game....

 

[JoeSixPat]

In the preseason I noted that this team was built not just to win - but to win ALL games and go after the perfect season.

I believed it was actually possible after Game 2 as I realized that Spygate had brought this team together to "answer" their critics and not just win - but to destroy every opponent.

I loved seeing that!

If the question is "when did you think they would go 19-0?", my honest answer is, "once Tom Brady took a kneel down in the Superbowl". I really, really don't want to count my chickens on this one.
