Beginning today, the New England Patriots Hall of Fame will officially launch the Patriots All-Dynasty Team exhibit as part of its two-year celebration of New England’s dominant, Super Bowl winning two decades from 2001 to 2019.

As an accompaniment to the exhibit, the Patriots announced the members of an All-Dynasty Team who were selected through a combination of fan voting and a panel of experts “knowledgeable about the Patriots over the last two decades”.

Patriots Hall of Fame director Bryan Morry discussed the reasoning behind the idea to create the exhibit and team.

“As the 2010s drew to a close, we thought the timing was right to take a look back and compare the Patriots success to that of the other NFL teams and the dominance was obvious”, Morry said. “While the team concept is so much a part of that success, we thought it appropriate to also honor the best players from those teams, and the fans helped us make those selections.”

According to the Patriots, “every member of the Patriots All-Dynasty Team played in a Super Bowl and all but four of the 42 team members won at least one Super Bowl title. Thirty-five won more than one and 39 played in multiple Super Bowls. Collectively, the team members boast 103 Super Bowl wins, 158 AFC Championship wins and 291 AFC East titles. Head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady led the way with nine Super Bowl appearances and six victories each. The average tenure with the Patriots for a selection was 8.4 years.”

The All-Dynasty Team features five members of the NFL’s 100th Anniversary Team and eight NFL All-Decade Team players, along with eight Patriots Hall of Famers. The players collectively earned 61 Associated Press All-Pro honors and 77 Pro Bowl berths.
