    I still think this might've been the best playoff win in a non Super Bowl winning year. So satisfying.

    Yes it is hard to judge a coach. But Belichick is clearly the best coach in the league. The last time the Browns went to the playoffs Bill was their coach. The Lions had a real s-----y player, can't remember his name, and they sent him to New England and now he's one of their better defensive players. In fact, in the Pats vs. Steelers game he was ranked their best defensive player in that game. They were talking about that on my local radio station in metro-Detroit but for the life of me I cannot remember the players name. Idk what it is but Belichick knows how to look and players and evaluate them and knows just how to use them and improve them.
    I respect both Brady and Belichick, best coach of all time and top 3 QB of all time, I just feel like people overlook what Bill does for the team in favor of gawking at Brady.

    This is the Patriots game to lose. They've been the clear Super Bowl favorites all year under Brady. I'd be surprised if they lose. I'm gonna guess 31-27 Pats.

    1) BB wasn't the coach of the browns the last time they went to the playoffs. Way to pull facts outta your a--- to support your argument

    2) no one underestimates BB. He's recognized as the best coach in the league and no one is in his class

    3) you say you respect Brady but then say he's only top 3, which is r-----ed. There's only one other guy in the conversation and that's Montana. Brady is clearly in front of everyone else.

    4) you root for three teams

    I've never heard anybody say "Yea, the patriots are an alright team". All love or hate.

    With that being said, f--- the Patriots and I'll be cheering for Atlanta

    Pats water boy supposedly has Philly ties too, ppl forget that. Keeps the players hydrated. W/O Philly Pats may not be in the Superbowl.

    I can’t pick against Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots when we all know they’re dying to run it up, shout to the sky and conquer their arch-rival so embarrassingly that reputations will be ruined and history will be rewritten.

    So, watch out there, Roger Goodell.

    Oh, the Atlanta Falcons are involved in Super Bowl LI, too, and actually might benefit a little from all the attention and tension that surrounds the relationship between the Patriots and NFL commissioner and will build all week in Houston leading up to the Feb. 5 game.

    Fine. Meant to say the last time they won a playoff game. My bad. And "only top 3" sorry that's not good enough for you and sorry my opinion is different than yours. And obviously once my team is eliminated I root for someone else I'm not gonna watch neutral lol that's boring.

    For example Calvin Johnson, Barry Sanders, Dom Suh. Great players, never won anything. Brady would have been no different. Detroit is not a winning organization like New England.

    Tom Brady would be Phillip Rivers if he wasn't on the Pats.

    So is he top 3 of all time or is he Phillip Rivers?

    You're severely downplaying the importance of the QB by mentioning Lions players. Also those guys were never considered nobodies, all of them were considered best in the league at their positions. Like Tom Brady is (save a few very stupid fans).

    You're forgetting that the Pats were not good before Brady. 5-11 the year before and started 0-2 with Bledsoe who was a solid NFL starting QB.

    Belichick had lost 23 of his last 33 as a head coach going into that first Brady start against the Colts. The Pats then went on to win 57 of their next 71 games en route to 3 SB championships. You plug in Phillip Rivers and its the same outcome?

    This can all go away by you just not responding, because your arguments are trash and your bias' are clear.

    The patriots have reached a level of success that fans of the NFL should just learn to accept and most importantly respect. It's a certain level of continuned success that's rarely reached. Their run started by beating the Rams after 9/11 so most of America was cheering for Brady and BB. Then they ran off wins against the Panthers and Eagles so they reached the level of being hated for multiple championships. Thats the point in dynasties where teams start to fall back and become irrelevant again. But Patriots continued to excel and out play, out coach, and out preform the rest of the NFL for the better part of 15 years. At this point i'm past hating the pats, instead I just admire what they do and how that franchise is ran. And as a 49ers fan, a franchise that also enjoyed success for similar longivity, I can appreciate what they've done. Should the Patriots win another title, fans shouldnt see it as a negative and say things like f---ing patriots, so sick of them. But rather admire their acomplishments and come to terms that we've witnessed a run that will be talked about for the rest of history.
