Best year the Pats have played? (Opinion wise)

by

If we’re talking about a Super Bowl winning year I’d have to go with 2001 simply because it was the first time and they overcame so much to finally raise the Lombardi. The other Super Bowl wins they were far more established and talented, almost to the point where if they didn’t win it, it would’ve been a disappointment.

As for a non-Super Bowl winning year I’m going to go with 2013. Just absolutely devastating injuries coupled with near complete turnover at wide receiver and yet they still somehow clawed their way into AFC Championship. I’ve never been more okay with a playoff loss in the Pats’ run. Also you have to mention the incredible late comebacks they had that were just so exciting.

I’m sure 2007 deserves some mention but that was in essence a pissed off all star team. Personally I enjoy seasons where major adversity is overcome as a sign of a great team.

But the key thing here for the league is that they believe the pressure point is going to be at the start of training camp — if they can get the deal done then because at that point in time, Brady will want to focus on football almost exclusively and get the entire Deflategate matter put behind him and in the rear mirror as he goes towards the 2015 season.

Jason Cole/Bleacher Report

By now I shouldn’t be surprised by this, and really it makes the most sense as to why the NFL would delay their ruling. But I don’t think it really matters to Brady and there’s almost no doubt in my mind we’re going to court. 

Look, the NFL took away picks in both 2016 AND 2017, so we’re going to be talking about Deflategate for two more years regardless. Do they really think Brady will let his reputation be ruined in the eyes of many because he thinks it will all just go away if he takes what the NFL offers? 

If anything there will be even more of a media firestorm around him because it will be spun as admitting guilt.

No, we’re going to court and I hope all the cronies in the NFL office are fried in the process.

New England Patriots 2015 Training Camp Depth Chart

The Pats filled the last two open roster spots today, and neither one was with Reggie Wayne. The first was veteran cornerback Tarrell Brown and the second was undrafted rookie receiver Zach D’Orazio who was with the team previously this offseason

So this looks like what we’re rolling into camp with. A couple notes – names in red are guys with injury issues that could land them on the PUP. Once the PUP comes out next week I will adjust the depth charts accordingly. Rookies are in blue and generally I put them at the bottom of the depth chart to start camp. That will likely change quickly.

i have game rewind for a few more days i was wondering if you could recommend any memorable/exciting games the pats had from 09-14 (win or loss) also what game are you most looking forward to this season (colts?) if not which one and why?

Oh this is right up my alley:

2009 – Week 1 vs. Bills (just watch the fourth quarter and think of the Pats “fans” who were pouring out of the stadium with five minutes left. Also the Titans game was one of the last gasps of the 2007 explosive offense.

2010 – Colts game (Peyton throws a loss-sealing pick), 45-3 Jets game (just ignore the playoff rematch where the Jets uh… won), Packers game was a great back and forth despite Aaron Rodgers being out.

2011 – Opener vs. the Dolpins and the last-minute comeback against the Cowboys were two of my favorites. The Ravens playoff game was epic too.

2012 – @ Jets BUTTFUMBLE! 49ers game was an epic comeback that fell just short but still a great game.

2013 – Lots from this season with so many miracle comebacks… vs. Saints as Brady throws last second GWTD, even more incredible comeback vs. the Broncos, and another vs. the Browns. Destroying the Ravens in Baltimore might’ve been my favorite game though.

2014 – Super Bowl obvs and the Ravens playoff game. Broncos beatdown was one of my all-time favorite game experiences.
