Not the most exciting game I've ever seen, that's for sure. Regardless, congrats to the Patriots on yet another victory.

I enjoyed the game. I don't mind a good defensive battle and there were several good plays along the way. You can't ask much more than a tie score going into the fourth quarter.

My thoughts as well. I see lots of people think it was boring. I thought it was a great defensive battle and it kept me on the edge of my seat in front of the tv for the entire game.

"Offense sells tickets, gets TV ratings and appears to be the future of football, but Belichick cemented the Patriots’ dynasty as the greatest in sports history the same way he started it, by suffocating the Rams with a brilliant defensive game plan". Quote from reporter.

I'd still take the Steelers of the mid to late 70s, the 49ers of the 80s or the Cowboys of the 90's any day against the Pats. The game isn't what it used to be, to many rules on where you tackle a player. C'mon it's football for crying out loud.

Regardless:
'greatest in sports history' ..........many a Yankee fan will dispute that !

27 World Championships, nobody is even close. As for comparing against the Patriots (having only been around since 1960) the Yanks have 9 World Championships since 1960.

Now, where I will give the Pats their just do is in the World of free agency and salary cap they are head and shoulders above all others.

Montreal Canadiens have 24. That's pretty close.

Agreed. One crucial mistake by either team would cost the game (pretty much how it played out).

Twice in 90 days that Boston beat an LA team for a championship.
