The success that the NE franchise has had is undeniable and Brady's talent and accomplishments at the position will be ranked high in the record books for decades to come. 

 

I get the gripes on Spygate, but this deflation deal seems like an inconsequential blip on the radar to me.  I think they deserve the credit on this SB win. 

 

For those in the game day thread that keep harping "check down."  I don't know where to start.  You need to do some homework and learn the difference between a designed short pass and a check down I guess. 

They were clearly using outside receivers to "clear the zone" and open room for the one on one mismatches underneath.  Come on, people. 

Check down?  LOL.  You take what they give you - and that area of the field is the clear weakness in Seattle's D.  

Dallas did the same thing to them - only not as frequently.
