New England Patriots preview
New England Patriots 2008 Preview ReportAugust 7, 2008
After his team’s stunning 17-14 Super Bowl XLII loss to the New York Giants, the illustrious quarterback stood behind a podium in front of an inordinately rabid, callous media and spoke wistfully about going for a title again next year. Fortunately for Tom Brady, none of the bloodhound reporters were smart (or cruel) enough to ask this question:
Tom, you guys came into this game with the best record in NFL history. Over 18 weeks, you obliterated teams early in the season, took care of other elite clubs at all stops and thrived in every adverse, high-pressure situation. You personally, a three-time world champion, led a prolific offense that shattered virtually every significant NFL single season record. Your team’s defense allowed the fourth fewest points in the league and featured three Pro Bowlers (not to mention at least three other star veterans who could end up in the Hall of Fame). Your special teams were sharp, and the consensus was that your head coach was the closest in the business to reaching Vince Lombardi’s pedestal. If you couldn’t win it all this year, how will you EVER win it all?
