The Patriots best Super Bowl win was against the Seahawks by only 4 points and were only saved by miracle last second interception at the one yard line.
The other 3 wins were by 3 points or less. In none of the Patriots Super Bowl victories were they clearly the better team.
Sure they were the better team. That's why they won.
"Clearly" the better team as in the Seahawks crushing the Broncos 43-8. The Patriots won last February against a Seahawk team decimated with injuries. On that day any of the top teams in the NFL would probably have won.
I'm curious, Huggy...was it an injury to the Seattle offense that caused the Butler interception? Back-up quarterback in there instead of Wilson? Beastmode injured and not available? Their top receivers out? That game came down to one play and a Patriots BACK-UP...an undrafted free agent from a college nobody's ever heard of out performed the completely intact Seattle Seahawks offense, out performed their STARS...jumped the route and made the play.
Blaming the loss on injuries is the kind of thing that losers do. Finding a way to win...even without your best players...is what winners do!
It was just a play with a horrible outcome for the Seahawks at a critical moment at the end of the game. Shit happens. Clearly Browner and Butler knew that play was coming. Obviously Bevell had the wrong personnel to execute that play against a team ready for it. The Hawks have MUCH better people to run that play against a strong db like Browner. The "rub" was a non existant joke. As Bevell was so famous for noting publicly in truth he was correct, Lockette not only made no strong effort to catch the ball, he got his weak ass knocked completely out of the play and in no position to even knock the ball safely to the ground.
As I explained and provided video evidence, Butler knocked Lockette down before the ball arrived. That is clearly pass interference. It is the reason for a pass interference rule. You are not supposed to be able to knock a receiver down before the ball arrives. The refs blew the call and allowed butler's interception to stand. That was the game and that is that.
