That’d be the 2004 season (2005 Super Bowl). Anyone who said someone other than the Niners were taking it all was a liar.
Well, one thing's for sure: Minnesota is not NE. NE is a WAAAYY better team than Minnesota. Oh, and fuck the Long family. Bunch of douchebags right there. Fuck Howie and his flattop.
Do you mean 1994 season? The Super Bowl was easy, but they had to beat the Triplets Cowboys in the NFC title game. That hardly qualifies as one of the easiest playoff runs in history.
Yes. Getting old and mixed up my numbers there. I missed the part where a fourth quarter, 10-point come-from-behind victory was a walk-in-the-park. Yeah, happens everyday. So by all means, total cakewalk. My bad. The Niners walked through the regular season and, had a minor battle with the Cowboys. The 49ers opened that game 21-0. Otherwise, they destroyed every opponent. So yeah, please do tell me again how the Pats’ path has been so much easier?
I'm talking about opponent quality, not whether they had to come back against a weak opponent against whom they were heavily favored. The Cowboys of that era were tougher than playing this year's Titans (who got outscored in the regular season!) and Jaguars at the same time. So, yeah, one of the weakest slates ever to go through in the playoffs and now they get a backup quarterback in the Super Bowl.
People out here are pumped, but every year for the patriots is super bowl or bust. If they lose, the season is a disaster. Talk tadio should be entertaining either way!
Ah, yes, debates. The best thing about them is how easily one can change the context or the parameters of the the discussion to fit their answer.
