Today for us is what NFL fans all hope to one day live. That one Monday where you just won the Super Bowl, exhausted and emotionally spent but for just a moment all is right in our football universe.

As Patriots fans we’ve gotten more than our fair share and every single one is just as delightful as the first.

There’s no more “we’ll see” or “yeah, but”, all the criticism that we’ve heard over the past year has been silenced. Sony Michel was worth a first round pick. Julian Edelman is still clutch and uncoverable. The defense was one of the best they’ve ever had. Gronk fought through injuries and came through when it counted most. Tom Brady was still Tom Brady.

But most importantly, the Patriots are still the Patriots. Oh yes they are.

Now they’ve got six rings, enough to answer any lame attempt aimed at minimizing how impressive this dynasty has been, the whip cream and cherries just keep getting piled on top of each other of this dynastic sundae.

The losses to the Giants and last year’s to the Eagles? Distant memories that barely move the needle. All are now chapters in a rollercoaster tale of NFL domination that has lasted almost two decades. And what a rollercoaster it has been.

Slowly I’m wrapping my head around what this sixth Super Bowl means on so many levels. All I can do is bang out a bunch of Posits as my mind skips around all things Patriots dynasty.
