i went back to when brady and hoodie joined the patriots
Making the Super Bowl 44% of the time over the course of 16 years is more than impressive.
I hear ya keefreefhard . . . but Brady's real first year with the hoodie was 2001, he was the 4th string quarterback in 2000.
But since 2001 its been:
2001 Won superbowl
2002 missed playoffs
2003 Won superbowl
2004 Won superbowl
2005 Lost Div Playoff
2006 Lost Conference Championship
2007 Lost Superbowl
2008 Missed Playoffs
2009 Lost in Wildcard
2010 Lost Div Playoff
2011 Lost Superbowl
2012 Lost Conference Championship
2013 Lost Conference Championship
2014 Won Super bowl
2015 Lost Conference Championship
2016 Won Super bowl
5 Superbowl Wins in 16 years
7 Superbowl appearances in 16 years
11 Conference Championship appearances in 16 years (last six years)
14 Division Championships in 16 years
Not to shabby. It certainly rivals the 49ers run of 80's-90s. Not sure the 49ers went to so many Conference Championships. But when Brady and the Hoodie hang it up I'm sure there will be more Championship wins or appearances . . .
Its funny, I'm putting so much effort into this, I'm not that big a fan, HA! But I enjoy watching greatness and watching history unfold before my eyes (if you are into that sort of thing). I am really just a true football fan.
Don't let anyone tell you that what the Pats have accomplished since 2001 isn't historic. To claim otherwise is delusional.
humiliation over the past 16 years? 2 AFC championship games. 1 of the 2 non pats AFC east titles and 6 trips to the playoffs.9 winning seasons since the year 2000. not too shabby really for a team people always say is a joke. most patriots fans will also tell you the jets are the team from the afc east they always worry about when they play
the pats fans should be showering the jets with gifts. hoodie originally was going to draft chad pennington as the pats QB of the future. when the patriots had to give the jets their 1st round draft pick the jets used that pick to steal pennington from the patriots. brady was drafted almost out of desperation and only got a chance to prove himself after drew Bledsoe was knocked out of a game against the jets.

Found it interesting to learn that, as part of the preparation for this game, the New England team, after their game last week vs. Denver, did not return home. Instead they stayed in Colorado (I believe they went to Colorado Springs) so they could practice all week in high altitude conditions similar to what they'll face in Mexico City.
Side Note:
I hope that last night's performance by the Steelers was an indication that they may be turning a corner and developing into a team that could make a run in the playoffs.
Peace,
Mr DJA
They're 8-2 in a weak division (this year, anyway) and are in first place in the AFC as of today. They'll make the playoffs.
Right on all accounts... As a lifelong fan though, I'm hoping for a run in the playoffs where they can possibly contend. Even as a fan, as tempting as it is to put more stock in the way they looked in the second half last night, I'm still not convinced that they're ready to make a deep run. I did love it though when Ben made is "Dilly Dilly" call at the line of scrimmage!
Peace,
Mr DJA
Yes you are right, the Pats fans should always greet Jets fans with a smile. The history between these teams go back along way. Tuna/Hoodie years of course, but remember the battles in the eighties, good stuff. Yes you guys did well 2 AFC championship games appearance with Sanchise . . . but i always root for the Jets, yes really. I also root for the Bills and Phins. The way i see it is if the division is strong, it pushes the Pats, the tougher the games, the better the Pats are in the long run and headed into the playoffs. For example 2011 the Giants beat the Pats in the Superbowl, Giants were the tougher team, I blame the jets bills phons etc. 2012 Pats lose conference championship to Ravens, tougher team, again thanks alot jets, bills, phins. 2013 Denver beats Pats in Confernce championship game and again they were the tougher team, and again i blame the jets bills and phins. So yes i root for the Jets and the biils and the phins . . . a bit of tongue in cheek here, but not much!
there are bets that hurt. the first time the seahawks went to super bowl against pittsburgh, i stood to win $2000 on a $50 bet. i have had zero love for the steelers since....
Those playoff years are always wrong. Patriots won their first Brady SB in 2002. They won their fifth this year - 2017.
While you are correct in regards to when the Super Bowl games were played, the years represent the year that the regular season was played, not the date on the calendar when the playoff games or Super Bowl was played. Both the NFL and NCAA football do this and it's been confusing me for years. Considering I'm 48 years old, I should be used to it now. I've come to accept that it does make a bit of sense to document it in this manner since they don't hyphenate like NHL & NBA. It still makes me frustrated when I have to think harder than I want to sometimes.
Peace,
Mr DJA
yep, too many key injuries along with the other problems they had before. the 3 senior moments that pete carroll had monday night certainly didn't help. different game if they would've kicked the field goal before halftime. that was all time wacky.
1. SnoBowl - Raiders won but NFL cheated them. So scam Super bowl #1 for patriots
2. 2003/2004 - it's a fact that they were cheating
3. Last 2 super bowls - handed to them by stupid opposing coaches.
Last year was such a sweet Super Bowl, greatest comeback in SB history. Maybe a rematch ??

It's annoying. The Saints won the Super Bowl in February of 2010... so when I see 2009 Champions it takes me a while to think 'Oh, for that season'. It is stupid.
Not as stupid as those stupid Roman numerals though.
hope your saints bring their "a" game against the rams tomorrow. for very selfish reasons, of course!
Talk about your favorite band.

Shhhhhhh. The sleeping giant has started to awake. The Patriots have begun that familiar second half of the season run. Uh-oh . . .
whats familiar? 12 times since the 2000 playoffs the patriots have not been in the SB. sure making it 7 times is a high batting average but its not that familiar imo
Ha. Well they have made the conference championship the last six consecutive years. So I think that's the familiarity. But you want to go back to the year 2000? Ok, we'll they have won their division every year except 2002 and 2008. But I'm sure you know all these stats. . . But you are right they have only made the superbowl 7 times in the last 16 years. Damn not that great, uh? Don't be silly, it's an unprescendented run which is still continuing and will trump the 49ers run when all said and done.

I almost fell off my seat watching the Saints (vs the Bills) run the ball for every play on a possession for 96 yards and score a TD with Brees running it in. Second game this season he hasn't thrown a TD pass.

The Jets have been up and down during the Brady/Belichick era. They played the Pats tough because Rex Ryan appeared to be unhealthily obsessed with Belichick. He got in Rex's head and it sometimes appeared that Rex only prepared for Pats games.
So yes, they've had a few bursts of modest success, but in comparison to the Pats, it's not even a contest. They're 28-8 against the Jets, including the playoffs.
My Dad instilled a deep dislike of the Jets in me from an early age...I only recently found out it was because he lost quite a bit of money betting against them in Super Bowl III (where Namath guaranteed a win). I found that very funny.

there are bets that hurt. the first time the seahawks went to super bowl against pittsburgh, i stood to win $2000 on a $50 bet. i have had zero love for the steelers since....

Shhhhhhh. The sleeping giant has started to awake. The Patriots have begun that familiar second half of the season run. Uh-oh . . .
whats familiar? 12 times since the 2000 playoffs the patriots have not been in the SB. sure making it 7 times is a high batting average but its not that familiar imo
Ha. Well they have made the conference championship the last six consecutive years. So I think that's the familiarity. But you want to go back to the year 2000? Ok, we'll they have won their division every year except 2002 and 2008. But I'm sure you know all these stats. . . But you are right they have only made the superbowl 7 times in the last 16 years. Damn not that great, uh? Don't be silly, it's an unprescendented run which is still continuing and will trump the 49ers run when all said and done.
i went back to when brady and hoodie joined the patriots
I hear ya keefreefhard . . . but Brady's real first year with the hoodie was 2001, he was the 4th string quarterback in 2000.
But since 2001 its been:
2001 Won superbowl
2002 missed playoffs
2003 Won superbowl
2004 Won superbowl
2005 Lost Div Playoff
2006 Lost Conference Championship
2007 Lost Superbowl
2008 Missed Playoffs
2009 Lost in Wildcard
2010 Lost Div Playoff
2011 Lost Superbowl
2012 Lost Conference Championship
2013 Lost Conference Championship
2014 Won Super bowl
2015 Lost Conference Championship
2016 Won Super bowl
5 Superbowl Wins in 16 years
7 Superbowl appearances in 16 years
11 Conference Championship appearances in 16 years (last six years)
14 Division Championships in 16 years
Not to shabby. It certainly rivals the 49ers run of 80's-90s. Not sure the 49ers went to so many Conference Championships. But when Brady and the Hoodie hang it up I'm sure there will be more Championship wins or appearances . . .
Its funny, I'm putting so much effort into this, I'm not that big a fan, HA! But I enjoy watching greatness and watching history unfold before my eyes (if you are into that sort of thing). I am really just a true football fan.
Those playoff years are always wrong. Patriots won their first Brady SB in 2002. They won their fifth this year - 2017.

While you are correct in regards to when the Super Bowl games were played, the years represent the year that the regular season was played, not the date on the calendar when the playoff games or Super Bowl was played. Both the NFL and NCAA football do this and it's been confusing me for years. Considering I'm 48 years old, I should be used to it now. I've come to accept that it does make a bit of sense to document it in this manner since they don't hyphenate like NHL & NBA. It still makes me frustrated when I have to think harder than I want to sometimes.
Peace,

Thanks for the explanation...the fact that the NFL season straddles two years has always made me question which year to use when referencing a season.Quote

yep, too many key injuries along with the other problems they had before. the 3 senior moments that pete carroll had monday night certainly didn't help. different game if they would've kicked the field goal before halftime. that was all time wacky.

1. SnoBowl - Raiders won but NFL cheated them. So scam Super bowl #1 for patriots
2. 2003/2004 - it's a fact that they were cheating
3. Last 2 super bowls - handed to them by stupid opposing coaches.

Clappy Mcdermott blew the chances of the Bills making the playoffs. He's starting Tyrod Taylor again this week. What was he thinking.

It's annoying. The Saints won the Super Bowl in February of 2010... so when I see 2009 Champions it takes me a while to think 'Oh, for that season'. It is stupid.
Not as stupid as those stupid Roman numerals though.
