last 20 years. The Super Bowl looked like the Pro Bowl with a better halftime show. I guess good defense will be a thing of the past. One of the most important facets of the game is not emphasized much any more. Belichick is one of best defensive minds in the game. Go figure. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy the game or find it entertaining, it was a very good game. But I also like to see games where the defense dominates like Denver did against Carolina a couple of years ago. I understand that it was two good offenses operating pretty well, but dang, Philly was supposed to have a good defense. Neither team stopped the other. If I want an XBox type game I will play XBox. What do you think?
NE has been fairly unstoppable on offense. Brady really does run a well tuned instrument there. If you can't pressure him, forget it they are going to score. Part of me suspects bellicheat figured out a new way to steal sigs, but who knows?
The Philly success a bit more surprising but NE d has been mediocre the past few years. They over acheived down the stretch, but even Jax had no trouble scoring on them, let alone Philly. I think the Brady era is finally over. Brady has announced he's coming back, but the NE defense ain't gonna miraculously improve unless bellicheat makes some big off season moves, and the drain of Brady on the salary cap prevents that.
It's worth noting that Brady ran off a really good back up QB. He obviously wants no challengers next year, and rumors of he and bellicheat disagreeing are likely true.
Wheels might finally fall off that bus next year.
