They know a thing or two about winning. Wait till Brady is in upper management for 30 years.
I can’t wait.

Lol, most dynasties are boring, in that the same team always seems to be in the big game.
For all the hype Donald was getting going into that game, he was really quiet.
But they both have good defences, which is very unOilerlike.Neither team having a red zone play until halfway through the fourth quarter sounds very Oilers to me.
Couple takeaways from this game
1) I never, ever, want to hear someone say that they want to watch a defense first game again. Last night had great defense and defensive tactics. And the game was a snooze fest. Offense is the best way to go pure and simple.
2) Brady is the goat, I am truely lucky to have grown up at the same time he was dominating. To me, hes the greatest athlete of all time across any sport of any generation. Gretzky is a close second, but Brady was able to do it across more years and with massive roster turn over
2B) With that being said, Tom Brady is likely to be HORRIBLE in upper management when he retires. Hes definitely a guy whos let the hype go to his head. He will be a terrible judgement maker because he will think he knows everything about everything. The best example for this is his quack "doctor" hes forced on the Pats, and his quack diet recommendations. Hes been on a big power trip the past 5 years as a player, I cant wait to see what happens when he has actual power. Great players rarley make good GMs
Clutch is probably the best term to describe BradySay what you want about his doctor or his diet, but he's 41 years old and still playing at the highest level and winning championships. Must be something in HIS water.
As to him being the greatest athlete of all time? Not even close. Think Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders or someone of that ilk. Brady has never had the strongest arm. He can't run to save his life. In the truest sense he is not a great athlete. But does he have a superb football mind and vision? Incredible will to win and passion? Absolutely.

Yawn. I can’t wait for this dynasty to finally end. Most boring dynasty ever.

17 years between his first and last championships where he played the same role on the team for all of them is truly amazing. Hard to wrap your head around, really. I can’t think of an accomplishment in team sports that even comes close.Some bodies are just able. Its like the person who lives to 105 but says the key to it was smoking and drinking every day. His doctor and diet have been proven conclusively by the medical community to be wrong. However, despite that, his body can still be in top shape
I was talking more about the whole package, not physically and athletically. Hes like Gretzky, athletically uninspiring, but great minds for the game. His accomplishments are second to none for me. Ever crazier that hes able to build a dynasty in todays game. In the 50s, 60s, 70s and even 90s it was easier due to less teams and less competition
I love the Pats, Brady, Edelman, Belicheck.
Excellence is like a fine wine to be savored. Doesn't come along so often and you miss it and you don't get the joy in it. The Patriots org are head and shoulders better and the results speak to that. Nor can I follow that the Pats wins have been boring. Some of the most dramatic and memorable wins ever in the Super Bowl. Until the Pats came around wasn't it being called the Super bore?
No, I mean the way they play the game and win is so systematic that it’s boring to watch.
Men and against boys from a coaching standpoint in that game.Belichick is just trolling the league at this point. Next year he plans to win it 2-0 on a safety.
I thought you were talking athletically. But you wound up finally saying the same thing as me, and that is having a great mind for the game. As good as he is though, his coach is right up there in terms of having a genius mind for the game, and getting everyone to buy in. Completely outcoached McVay yesterday.Some bodies are just able.

Brady is unto himself in comparisons, but I think Edelman will go down in NFL history as one of the most clutch players ever. Love the guy and the way he plays. Not big, but a waterbug that has incredible hand eye and is tough as nails, as well as being incredibly football intelligent.True. It did have that feel where Edelman was McDavid and everyone else was the rest of the Oilers though too.
I'd say the top 3 players through three quarters were Edelman and the two punters haha.
Probability alone suggest any greatest athlete would come from Soccer, the world sport, and the billions that play that sport. Not from a sport played on one continent. If you think that the best athlete in your lifetime comes from Football it probably means you should follow soccer more.
Also, Steve Yzerman says hi!
Brady is pretty close to the same kind of perfectionist that Yzerman is. Both insufferable, but both right on the ball, knowing what it takes and having pretty good ideas on what winning is, incase theres any concern.
