Serious question after watching this game, does anyone else find the Patriots success ratio to be a tad fishy? I'm not gonna bother digging up stats, but just from watching their games over the last decade I think the law of averages would preclude any team from pulling as many wins out of their ass at the last second as these guys do. No matter how many injuries or personnel changes they encounter they still dominate. Even without Brady they went 11-5 with Matt Cassel, you put Cassel with KC and now Minnesota and he stinks it up in both cities. Literally the only consistent piece of the puzzle has been Bill Belichik, except you look at his time coaching in Cleveland before he arrived at NE, and his overall record was 36–44, he had only 1 winning season there.
I often feel like I'm watching something scripted, it feels like every NE game is built to give them the ball with 2 mins on the clock, even in the last few weeks, from the video replay machine not working, to a BS unnecessary roughness call, and not seeing Brees call for a timeout yesterday, it seems like EVERYTHING sways in their favor. Literally the only way they seem to lose is if the team playing them dominates them in such a way that the refs can't make their "officiating" look realistic. I hope I don't sound like I'm wearing a tin foil hat here, but honestly can you think of any other team with as many last minute miraculous wins? It feels like a Stallone movie where he survives a million impossible jumps out of exploding buildings...this kinda stuff just doesn't happen in real life. I'm convinced Kraft has Goodell on his pay roll or something.
