Question If the Patriots somehow lose the Super Bowl

what would this team be remembered as?

Would they still be remembered as one of the best teams ever? Would they be remembered as the greatest regular season team ever but choked in the biggest game?

All of the pressure is on New England (more than any other game) but how will the Patriots team be remembered if they lose the last one?

Thoughts?

the team that couldnt finish the deal, it would be a huge embarassment because of all the "love" they get from the media as so great in the playoffs

Not sure if 15-1 or 14-2 but I don't think they made it to the SB. Also so did the Vikings several years ago and I think the Giants smoked them in NFC Championship

The year Minny went 15-1, they lost to Atlanta at home in the NFC Championship game, the worst loss ever in any sport for me as a Minny fan

sure if gb made it...or the chargers could have just done it on sunday. I have to pull for the patriots for 2 reasons:

1. I will NEVER pull for Sheli
2. The pats have already won a bunch, who gives a shit about 1 more. Plus hopefully bill b will retire when they win

'

Atlanta played Denver in the Super Bowl that year, That was the year Denver almost had a perfect season also. Atlanta was even 14-2 that year, I believe

Giants game was 2001 when they lost 41-0

Damn, I got drunk that day

Okay I remember because the Giants beat Denver to breakup the perfect season and then the next week we played Denver on Monday night and there was a HUGE fight in the stands with like one Denver guy in the middle, all drunk and bleeding all over the place. I'll never forget it!. I thought I was in Philly for a minute
