The reason Pats fans take this loss so hard is because they know in their hearts that their past is tainted. They are desperate to get the big "clean" win that finally gets them public respect.
A so-called dynasty that has to have last minutes wins with some lucky bullshit thrown in to beat the likes of Jake Delhomme. What great team has this "dynasty" had to face down?
When it comes to the steelers, they've had the good fortune of the steelers constantly missing key players. This year was the first time they faced Ben, Bell and AB and AB got hurt.
There was Peyton Manning. Manning in the end has a better head to head record against Brady in the playoffs and that is despite his Colt teams not being that good aside from his arm.
What QBs have they had to face down on their path? Kurt Warner is the only top QB and they cheated against him. Aside from that, they beat McNabb, Delhomme, Matt Ryan, and Russell Wilson.
What QBs have beaten the Pats in the SB? Jim McMahon (more like the Bears defenses won that), Brett Favre, Eli Manning twice and now Foles. Looks like when they run into a good QB they tend to lose. Foles may be a backup but he played a near perfect game.
Let's look at who the STeelers have faced in SBs, Tarkenton, Staubach x 2, Feragamo, Aikman, Hasselbeck, Kurt Warner, Aaron Rodgers.
I count 6 of 8 vs Hall Of Fame QBs. (assuming Rodgers).
Do we have to talk about the horrible AFC East. The Pats have probably already won it for 2018. Best QB they have ever had to face in division? Marc Sanchez? Chad Pennington? It's a joke. Nobody else in the division even knows who will start at QB next year. I guess Tannehill will start in Miami, but what does that even mean? Buffalo and Jets may be starting rookies.
Pats fans know they are not a real dynasty. They are hungry for that big win, a convincing win vs a great opponent. The great opponents have been few and far between and even the mediocre teams they've faced like Atlanta last year, have pushed them to their limits.
Pats fans were hoping for a big win, a double digit beatdown to finally shut up the critics and their own self doubt that tells them that with all their close wins it really could be these spygate advantages that have been the difference.
Eat **** patriot fans. Your cheater team will never be accepted in the hearts of football fans as a dynasty.
It is not about hate either. Who is more hated than the Cowboys? Nobody denies the greatness of their 90s dynasty. No, the public rejects your claims of greatness because they know you're not. We've seen greatness, and you're not it. Take your last second cheat enhanced trophies and shut up.
Remember that time Michael Jordan was out-dueled by John Starks? Yeah, that didn't ever happen.
BTW, Big Papi was roided up.
Sleep well cheaters
