Man watching this video brings back all the memories of my childhood. I was 5 when Vinatieri hit that first kick and i was a senior in college when we beat the Rams in SB53. I remember everything, being woken up by my dad in the middle of the night to see that first SB win, being in the stands for that Buffalo wildcard beatdown, the "are you kidding me?

Thanks for the history lesson and analysis. That dynasty we'll never see anything like them ever again. Funny though to watch NE fans complain about Belichick. One day they'll miss him.
Borges said after they beat the ram in 02 that they'd be upset because they didn't have anything to complain about. well, i think they've come full circle and have been returned to the hell that they existed in prior to bills arrival. this is secretly what they wanted, to be pissed off and miserable.
But there is a dynasty starting in Kansas City when Kelce retires the Chiefs must find his replacement and then they’re going to find a replacement QB someday for Mahomes but right now it’s fine the Chiefs are just getting started and Mahomes plays like he’s 40 with all of his knowledge
American Dynasties Ranked 1.) New England Patriots from 2001 to 2018 2.) 30s and 50s Yankees 3.) 90s Yankees 4.) Jordan Chicago Bulls 5.) 2010s Warriors
I suppose what I appreciate about your look at all this is that you're a patriot fan. Getting that inside look is appreciated in its own way to how things did or didn't change from the inside.
Easy way to piss off us Patriots fans...just say 2007. Was going to college in Boston then, had a bunch of people over the apartment to watch. When he caught the TD and sealed the deal I just went right to bed. Couldn't believe it!
The patriots superbowl comeback against Atlanta was truly amazing, and special. Crazy to think the NBA finals where the Cavs came back 3 games to 1 against the Warriors was about a year or so apart.
* Week two of the 2001 season was the last game Drew Bledsoe would ever start for the patriots. He played again tho. He got them to the Super Bowl with a huge win in the AFC championship.
that falcons SB was quite possibly the most stressful but fucking amazing i’ve ever seen as a pats fan that just straight up solidified brady as the GOAT for me and yea we’re probably not gonna be the shit for a while especially after this year but i’m glad the dynasty happened in my lifetime
I may have spent my entire life rooting against Brady, Belichick, and the Patriots, but honestly watching them collapse has been bittersweet. One of the things that makes sports fun to watch is having someone to root against, and watching such a historic, powerful dynasty die so unceremoniously has been kinda sad, and for Pats fans I have no doubt that despite all the success it still really sucks to see your team collapse so dramatically. I always rooted against them, but despite that I still respected them and the insane empire they built, and I hope they can still see a little success in the post Brady-Belichick era sometime.
You must not be a a fan of another AFC east team. I’m a Jets fan, and believe me, it’s sweet to finally see them lose. They held all of us down for two decades.
@@romansans1 That’s fair enough. Even though I am happy to see them lose, it doesn’t change the fact that Brady is the GOAT, and that the Pats built one of the greatest Dynasties of all time.
As a Steelers fan, I have to say the same feelings are in me for this too. I almost wonder if we'll be joining you during the next season or the one after. Won't lie... happy to see the downfall, but at the same time it was kind of daunting to observe knowing how it can happen to any team really.
@@MrMegaMario64 And not only can it happen to every team, it's bound to happen to every team. I hope you guys can see a little more success before the end though, I'd love to see Mike Tomlin get another ring before his time is up.
A question for Pats fans. Besides the transition from a run heavy to a pass heavy offense, are the schemes used by Charlie Weiss and the coordinators from the 2nd dynasty vastly different? I don't mean philosophically, mean schematic differences because you can run the exact same scheme but one is run dominant and one is pass dominant. I don't follow them close enough to know and am curious. I know the say '05 defense compared to say their last super bowl winning defense were very different even though I'm sure both were designed by the hoodie himself.
One team in the past did appear in a comparable number of AFC Championship games to the Patriots 8 out of 9. From 1967-1977 the Oakland Raiders appeared in 9 out of 11 AFC/AFL Championship games, and it would have been 10 out of 11 if not for the Immaculate Reception loss against the Steelers in the 1972 playoffs (probably the biggest fluke-play ending ever to a playoff game).
Good riddance to the Patriots dynasty. About damn time. I know it ended once Brady left but now it's official. You can't deny greatness though and what they did is just incredible.
Bill and the defense betrayed tom in 2017-2018 superbowl. But they knew it was some bs that bill pulled and they made it right against the rams!!! You can tell they refused to give up on tom in that superbowl. They owed it to tom after that man threw for 500 yards the year before
One thing that gets failed to mention every time I watch these types of videos on the fall of the patriots dynasty is the offensive line play. It really fell off after 2019. This is because the Offensive Line Coach, Dante Scarrnechia, retired after the 2019 season. When he was coaching the Patriots O Line, they were always seemed to be a top 5 O Line. Without him, they're either mediocre at best and now horrendous. Just wanted to leave a quick note of how important coaching is to a dynasty as well. Small pieces like Scarrnechia help make the engine of the dynasty keep running strong.
Well I think I have an idea on how it went down 1. People want to get paid 2. People get older 3. We weren't able to replace good Coaching when they left. So there you have it and it just goes to show you how Crazy of a run it truly was and will never be again
The reality is all things end, but there are people who retired that broke the Patriots dynasty and it was not Tom. After his first Ring, Tom gave new cars to all his linemen, because he understood without them protecting him, he could not do his job. All the success Tom has had was because his font line allowed him the time to do his job. But this thought leaves out one major player who never took the field. Dante Sacrnechia, one of the Greatest Front Line Coaches in NFL history! When Scar retired the first time the Front line had problems. Scar unretired and came back and soon the line was working again. Since Tom has been elevated, by the idiots, to the God of New England's success, it seems that coaching has nothing to do with football anymore. The players do it all, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Scar is why Tom had that time in the pocket, but he doesn't get credit for Tom's success. The fact is if the line never protected Tom he would never have scored a touchdown or won a game. The Front line is 100% responsible for Tom's success as a QB. They are responsible for the success of every QB, and the front line is successful because of the front-line Coach who taught them how to do their jobs and work together. The other Retirie is Earnie Adams, the head of Scouting for the Patriots. Both these guys, Scar and Earnie, are old friends of Bill. Bill brought them into the Patriots organization and the three of them created New England's success. The Scouting Department's job is to prepare the team for the next team they play. To report on their strengths and weaknesses. To break down their playbook and peculiarities so that the team can have some idea of what to expect on Sunday, and so allow the HC to develop a scheme to defeat that team. The fact is, 30% of NE's success was due to Earnie's scouting reports alone. He prepared the team. The most obvious example is in the Super Bowls against the Seahawks, and the Falcons. The team had been practicing to stop the slant pass play that the Seahawks used with seconds left on the clock at the end of Super Bowl 49. Hightower had just stopped Marshawn Lynch at the 1-yard line. There was enough time to either run the ball once, or run a pass play, which would stop the clock if not caught, and then run the ball. They went with the latter, BUT they made the mistake of running a play they had run 7 times from inside the 2-yard line and had scored 7 times with it. Erneie saw it and drew up a counter to it. When the Seahawks linked up in that formation the Defense saw it and was ready, Malcom Butler intercepted the ball and ended the game. In Super Bowl 51 Ernei would again be the turning point. With the score 25-3, the Defense stopped a 1st down run with negative yards on the play. Then they made their mistake. Earnie had noticed that Freeman had a poor time dealing with pressure from the outside in that formation, so when they lined up they sent Hightower wide left and ordered him to blitz the QB. Just as Earnie knew he would, Hightower ran right past him unopposed, he hit the QB and stripped the ball from his hands giving NE the ball at the 32-yard line. Two plays later NE scored their first TD of the game and began a historic comeback, but it needed one more brilliant play by Earnie to make it happen. 4th quarter, 28 to 20. Ryan is forced out of the pocket and throws a running pass to Julio Jones who makes a great reception taking the Falcons to NE's 22-yard line and 4 more downs, 4:40 seconds left on the Play clock. A field goal will put the game out of reach of the Patriots. All the Falcons have to do is run it three times keep the ball in the center of the field and kick a short-yardage field goal to win their first Super Bowl. First down, they run to the left and lose 1 yard. Second down, they run a pass play, but NE is showing a stacked backfield, every man is covered hard. The QB is forced to hold the ball for too long and he is sacked by Tray Flowers at the 38-yard line, but they are still in field goal range. Third down, now Ernie's preparation comes through again. Earnie saw that the left tight end, Jake Mathews, has a history of holding on 3rd down when pressed. So NE orders Chris Long to blitz. Sure enough, Mathews, true to form, strangles Long and pushes his team out of field goal range, but they repeat 3rd down. 2nd Third down, is an incomplete pass, and they punt on Fourth down. These two big plays in the Super Bowls are the most memorable times Earnie saved the ass of the Patriots, but he actually did it all season long. Earnie is responsible for at least 30% of all the wins made by NE during the 20 years he was head of Scouting. He was the BEST at it no team was better prepared than NE thanks to Earnie. Ty Law said that it was easy playing Defense for Bill. "Bill did all the preparation and told you what to expect, and he was always right." Yeah right, Bill did the Scouting...Earnie Adams did the scouting, and that made Bill's job easy he just passed on the knowledge Earnie gave him. Bill's coaching style instilled a discipline that made NE the least penalized team in the NFL. It was said of NE that NE never beat itself. That was Bill's coaching. Earnie Scouting made NE the best-prepared team in the NFL, while Scar's coaching of the Front line gave Tom the time to do his job. When Scar and Earnie retired THAT is when NE started it downfall. Scar, Earnie, and Bill were a football triumvirate... They made NE great. Their work ethic instilled the players to work hard. The offensive team in drawing up new playbooks to match each team's personnel every year was also a big part of the offense's success. They asked players to do what they did best. That is not how other teams work. We saw in Tampa in year one, Tom and his HC were fighting, the HC wanted Tom to change how he played the game to fit what the HC liked to do. In the end, the HC was fired and Tom remained. The Players still had to do their jobs and do them well and consistently. But great coaching and great scouting make it easier for them to do that job, allowing them to know what is coming to be better prepared for what will come during the game. "Wars are won before they are fought." Preparation and training make the difference in war and in sports. The better prepared and trained team will usually always win.
You don't need a video to know the dynasty fell for the same reason every great empire falls, players get old, and the cheaters move on without those two things it may have lasted longer.
I find it completely bizarre that people call a game "boring". Are you really a fan? Do you live in the city that has the team? Born there? Do you set your alarm clock to wake you up to watch a meaningless match against teams with losing records, after working a late shift just to watch them. Is the Super Bowl the only game you watch, watched that year? I find these games majestic the same. But that's just me.
Brady’s last year as a patriot he absolutely had no weapons whatsoever. I mean his last loss as a patriot was a game at home versus the Titans and we only scored 13 points… if they’re Antonio Brown and Josh Gordon thing had worked out that year. I’m sure we probably would’ve went to the Super Bowl. And that game against the Chiefs where it was ruled that Nikhil Harry’s foot was out of bounds … if we win that game those playoffs also would’ve been different
Malcolm Butler had a heated exchange with Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia during practice leading up to the Super Bowl, leading to Butler's demotion. Patricia was not happy with Butler's effort on the practice field and let him know it, which led to the blowout between the two. Belichick backed his staff and punished Butler.
Its the inevitable fate of all sports dynasties to come crashing to a devastating end. Its why theyre called “Dynasties”. They end up dying nasty deaths.
Lamar Jackson Patriots picked Sony Michel one pick before Lamar Jackson. He could have sat for 2 years behind Brady and continued the dynasty instead he ended the dynasty Nov. 3rd 2019 SNF when Baltimore defeated the 8-0 Patriots. Patriots lost their confidence finished 4-5 and Brady was gone to Tampa. Kind of poetic considering Baltimore and New England was imo the best rivalry in the NFL for 12 years. Classic battles.
"How The Patriots Dynasty Came Crashing Down" I think most teams would be happy to come crashing down if that meant they were able to build such a record over 2 decades
As a Patriots fan, Kraft should've fired Belichick after they lost to the Giants the first time. He is the worst coach to win the Super Bowl and he has no game plan.
"We sold our soul for the first three, and now we're cursed" Really dude? Leave it to a Patriots fan to think that only winning three Super Bowls is a hardship. You poor guy. How do you muster up the strength to go on with your life when you are cursed with having to lose a few super bowls in between the six wins. Jesus Christ.
Super Bowl 49 is the most important ring in Brady's career, it was the super bowl that made him the GOAT I would like to see an alternate timeline where the Seahawks did become the new dynasty with three in a row, but Brady eventually wins more titles with the 49ers, his childhood team. Jimmy G and Belichick ruin the Patriots into irrelevancy.
Incompetence is a strong word. There is a reason every other team drafts players who dont work out. It is impossible to know who will make it in the pros and who won't.
Your timeline is all wrong. What about Victor Kiam or George Busch Ortwein? He bought the stadium and then bought the franchise to save it from being moved to St. Louis.
thinking one man would have prevented that Superbowl loss is crazy Malcolm wasn't that good. it was the game plan. and word is Malcolm put his hands on belichicks son. and I agree with him. I don't care what anyone says.
"the Patriots Dynasty came crashing down because BB lost his draft mojo, following 2017." there. i did in one sentence what wasn't clear in a 39:25 long video. no shade, but this is like Tube Frog. what's advertised as a deep dive into why the Patriots collapsed, turns into a 95% rimming session of Tom Brady. I have no problem with Patriot fans celebrating their dynasty. i have a problem with Patriot fans promoting a video explaining the downfall of said dynasty, only to really deliver a step-by-step account of how great the Patriots are. i've lived this already. don't need a review. this was as much use as a Dr. Oz episode on how to maintain sobriety.
Then came a new empire and it’s in Kansas City. I hope the Chiefs learn from the Patriots and eventually draft Mahomes replacement quarterback someday when Mahomes becomes old
@@millabasset1710It’s more competitive now than during the brady dynasty lmao. Manning a perrenial playoff chocker, fatass big ben and a fledgling phillip rivers were the only comp for brady in the afc most of the time
@@SycoticForeverNeverAF Josh Allen, Tua Turn the Ball Ova, Baker Mayfield and Running Back Jackson. What are you talking about? The NFL is almost as watered down as the NBA now.
How the dynasty fell? Simple the Dynasty was Brady. After he left, it was over. Kraft and Bellichick tried to act like they were a big part of it. They weren’t. They just got lucky with Brady. That’s clear now
Belichecks ego got in the way, he always thought it was his scheme and forgot that every playoff win Belichick had in the 2000s was with Brady under center. Belichick had a front row seat to Brady defying odds and still vet against him. Patriots could of and should of been the first team to win 3 Superbowls in a row but bill benched Malcom butler and wasted Brady throwing for 500 yards in a Superbowl! Without Brady Belichick got exposed. While without Belichick Brady had 3 playoff appearances , 2 division titles and a Superbowl win. While in 10 seasons WITHOUT Brady Belichick has 2 playoff appearances and ONE playoff win back in 1995. Belichick wanted to go with Jimmy glass in 2016/17 and Brady had more success in his 40s than Jimmy gerapelo has in his entire career, Jimmy can't make it past week 5 even starting the season as a backup. Belichick traded gronk to Matt Patricias dumpster fire lions and gronk threatened to retire and had the most important catch in that last Superbowl. Those two moves alone would take away 2 rings from pats.
Short answer: Tom Brady Left. Long answer: Tom Brady vacated the premises.
Drew Bledsow came in and played in the 2001 AFC championship against the Steelers and won the game that sent the Patriots to thier first Superbowl win!.
It was a nice send off for Bledsoe. He was the guy in New England for 9 years and almost got them a SB.

Thank you! And agreed, if he can just get us back to a winning organization-I'll be a big fan of his.
Awesome video!
When Kearse caught that ball I remember yelling "Not Again, Not Again!!!"
Thanks for the history lesson and analysis. That dynasty we'll never see anything like them ever again. Funny though to watch NE fans complain about Belichick. One day they'll miss him.
Borges said after they beat the ram in 02 that they'd be upset because they didn't have anything to complain about. well, i think they've come full circle and have been returned to the hell that they existed in prior to bills arrival. this is secretly what they wanted, to be pissed off and miserable.
The defensive coordinator needed to go. Belichick greatest accomplishments are as a defensive coordinator
But there is a dynasty starting in Kansas City when Kelce retires the Chiefs must find his replacement and then they’re going to find a replacement QB someday for Mahomes but right now it’s fine the Chiefs are just getting started and Mahomes plays like he’s 40 with all of his knowledge
American Dynasties Ranked
1.) New England Patriots from 2001 to 2018
2.) 30s and 50s Yankees
3.) 90s Yankees
4.) Jordan Chicago Bulls
5.) 2010s Warriors
The 20s to 60 Yankees are in a league above everyone else

175 million for an NFL franchise ! and he felt he overpaid ! Lol players sign contracts for that much nowadays
I suppose what I appreciate about your look at all this is that you're a patriot fan. Getting that inside look is appreciated in its own way to how things did or didn't change from the inside.
Easy way to piss off us Patriots fans...just say 2007. Was going to college in Boston then, had a bunch of people over the apartment to watch. When he caught the TD and sealed the deal I just went right to bed. Couldn't believe it!
Being a life-long Pats fan, I thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Great channel! I really enjoy your content!
The patriots superbowl comeback against Atlanta was truly amazing, and special. Crazy to think the NBA finals where the Cavs came back 3 games to 1 against the Warriors was about a year or so apart.
Definitely gained a follower and subscriber bossss
Great job, better than most "pro" productions, liked the review of game tape with you commenting added a great touch.
not a Pats fan but i really enjoyed this man, nice work!
* Week two of the 2001 season was the last game Drew Bledsoe would ever start for the patriots. He played again tho. He got them to the Super Bowl with a huge win in the AFC championship.
1000th subscriber 🙏🙏 keep it up brother
that falcons SB was quite possibly the most stressful but fucking amazing i’ve ever seen as a pats fan that just straight up solidified brady as the GOAT for me
and yea we’re probably not gonna be the shit for a while especially after this year but i’m glad the dynasty happened in my lifetime
Good video
Thank you!
This was nice to stumble across right after the week 1 win over the Bengals.
Good shit man enjoyed this subbed
I may have spent my entire life rooting against Brady, Belichick, and the Patriots, but honestly watching them collapse has been bittersweet. One of the things that makes sports fun to watch is having someone to root against, and watching such a historic, powerful dynasty die so unceremoniously has been kinda sad, and for Pats fans I have no doubt that despite all the success it still really sucks to see your team collapse so dramatically. I always rooted against them, but despite that I still respected them and the insane empire they built, and I hope they can still see a little success in the post Brady-Belichick era sometime.
You must not be a a fan of another AFC east team. I’m a Jets fan, and believe me, it’s sweet to finally see them lose. They held all of us down for two decades.
@@tylerbrass4002 Admittedly I'm not, I root for the Lions and Saints, and since they're both NFC teams I never really had to deal with them directly.
@@romansans1 That’s fair enough. Even though I am happy to see them lose, it doesn’t change the fact that Brady is the GOAT, and that the Pats built one of the greatest Dynasties of all time.
As a Steelers fan, I have to say the same feelings are in me for this too. I almost wonder if we'll be joining you during the next season or the one after. Won't lie... happy to see the downfall, but at the same time it was kind of daunting to observe knowing how it can happen to any team really.
@@MrMegaMario64 And not only can it happen to every team, it's bound to happen to every team. I hope you guys can see a little more success before the end though, I'd love to see Mike Tomlin get another ring before his time is up.
A question for Pats fans. Besides the transition from a run heavy to a pass heavy offense, are the schemes used by Charlie Weiss and the coordinators from the 2nd dynasty vastly different? I don't mean philosophically, mean schematic differences because you can run the exact same scheme but one is run dominant and one is pass dominant. I don't follow them close enough to know and am curious. I know the say '05 defense compared to say their last super bowl winning defense were very different even though I'm sure both were designed by the hoodie himself.
Great job!
Dolphins but football fan. Hated yall for years of course 😂 but the video was entertaining! Good watch.
This was an outstanding video what made You a Pats Fan with Your Dad hating the Pats
We love to see it!
One team in the past did appear in a comparable number of AFC Championship games to the Patriots 8 out of 9. From 1967-1977 the Oakland Raiders appeared in 9 out of 11 AFC/AFL Championship games, and it would have been 10 out of 11 if not for the Immaculate Reception loss against the Steelers in the 1972 playoffs (probably the biggest fluke-play ending ever to a playoff game).
Good riddance to the Patriots dynasty. About damn time. I know it ended once Brady left but now it's official. You can't deny greatness though and what they did is just incredible.
lmao, i bet you were waiting awhile to say that. after all that winning. and stories, im done.
hell of a run
You mad bro? Let me show you the door.
great video!
Excuse me! Bledsoe played in the AFC Championship Game against the Steelers when Brady went down after taking a hit to his knee.
Bill and the defense betrayed tom in 2017-2018 superbowl. But they knew it was some bs that bill pulled and they made it right against the rams!!! You can tell they refused to give up on tom in that superbowl. They owed it to tom after that man threw for 500 yards the year before
Nick foles the GOAT
Picking off Peyton Manning four times is apparently a sign of a Dynasty in the making.
One thing that gets failed to mention every time I watch these types of videos on the fall of the patriots dynasty is the offensive line play. It really fell off after 2019. This is because the Offensive Line Coach, Dante Scarrnechia, retired after the 2019 season. When he was coaching the Patriots O Line, they were always seemed to be a top 5 O Line. Without him, they're either mediocre at best and now horrendous. Just wanted to leave a quick note of how important coaching is to a dynasty as well. Small pieces like Scarrnechia help make the engine of the dynasty keep running strong.
Amazing product quality
Well I think I have an idea on how it went down 1. People want to get paid 2. People get older 3. We weren't able to replace good Coaching when they left. So there you have it and it just goes to show you how Crazy of a run it truly was and will never be again
Pats nation???
There's only one nation...
#RaiderNation!
What a joke
Good video. But it still doesn't answer the most important question: Why the hell didn't Seattle run the freaking ball?!?!
The Mayo era starts! Let’s go! Either Drake Maye or Jayden Daniel’s will be are future and I’m fine with that
The reality is all things end, but there are people who retired that broke the Patriots dynasty and it was not Tom.
After his first Ring, Tom gave new cars to all his linemen, because he understood without them protecting him, he could not do his job. All the success Tom has had was because his font line allowed him the time to do his job.
But this thought leaves out one major player who never took the field. Dante Sacrnechia, one of the Greatest Front Line Coaches in NFL history!
When Scar retired the first time the Front line had problems. Scar unretired and came back and soon the line was working again.
Since Tom has been elevated, by the idiots, to the God of New England's success, it seems that coaching has nothing to do with football anymore. The players do it all, but nothing could be farther from the truth.
Scar is why Tom had that time in the pocket, but he doesn't get credit for Tom's success.
The fact is if the line never protected Tom he would never have scored a touchdown or won a game. The Front line is 100% responsible for Tom's success as a QB. They are responsible for the success of every QB, and the front line is successful because of the front-line Coach who taught them how to do their jobs and work together.
The other Retirie is Earnie Adams, the head of Scouting for the Patriots. Both these guys, Scar and Earnie, are old friends of Bill. Bill brought them into the Patriots organization and the three of them created New England's success.
The Scouting Department's job is to prepare the team for the next team they play. To report on their strengths and weaknesses. To break down their playbook and peculiarities so that the team can have some idea of what to expect on Sunday, and so allow the HC to develop a scheme to defeat that team.
The fact is, 30% of NE's success was due to Earnie's scouting reports alone. He prepared the team. The most obvious example is in the Super Bowls against the Seahawks, and the Falcons.
The team had been practicing to stop the slant pass play that the Seahawks used with seconds left on the clock at the end of Super Bowl 49. Hightower had just stopped Marshawn Lynch at the 1-yard line.
There was enough time to either run the ball once, or run a pass play, which would stop the clock if not caught, and then run the ball. They went with the latter, BUT they made the mistake of running a play they had run 7 times from inside the 2-yard line and had scored 7 times with it. Erneie saw it and drew up a counter to it. When the Seahawks linked up in that formation the Defense saw it and was ready, Malcom Butler intercepted the ball and ended the game.
In Super Bowl 51 Ernei would again be the turning point. With the score 25-3, the Defense stopped a 1st down run with negative yards on the play. Then they made their mistake.
Earnie had noticed that Freeman had a poor time dealing with pressure from the outside in that formation, so when they lined up they sent Hightower wide left and ordered him to blitz the QB.
Just as Earnie knew he would, Hightower ran right past him unopposed, he hit the QB and stripped the ball from his hands giving NE the ball at the 32-yard line. Two plays later NE scored their first TD of the game and began a historic comeback, but it needed one more brilliant play by Earnie to make it happen.
4th quarter, 28 to 20. Ryan is forced out of the pocket and throws a running pass to Julio Jones who makes a great reception taking the Falcons to NE's 22-yard line and 4 more downs, 4:40 seconds left on the Play clock. A field goal will put the game out of reach of the Patriots.
All the Falcons have to do is run it three times keep the ball in the center of the field and kick a short-yardage field goal to win their first Super Bowl.
First down, they run to the left and lose 1 yard.
Second down, they run a pass play, but NE is showing a stacked backfield, every man is covered hard. The QB is forced to hold the ball for too long and he is sacked by Tray Flowers at the 38-yard line, but they are still in field goal range.
Third down, now Ernie's preparation comes through again.
Earnie saw that the left tight end, Jake Mathews, has a history of holding on 3rd down when pressed. So NE orders Chris Long to blitz. Sure enough, Mathews, true to form, strangles Long and pushes his team out of field goal range, but they repeat 3rd down.
2nd Third down, is an incomplete pass, and they punt on Fourth down.
These two big plays in the Super Bowls are the most memorable times Earnie saved the ass of the Patriots, but he actually did it all season long.
Earnie is responsible for at least 30% of all the wins made by NE during the 20 years he was head of Scouting. He was the BEST at it no team was better prepared than NE thanks to Earnie.
Ty Law said that it was easy playing Defense for Bill. "Bill did all the preparation and told you what to expect, and he was always right." Yeah right, Bill did the Scouting...Earnie Adams did the scouting, and that made Bill's job easy he just passed on the knowledge Earnie gave him.
Bill's coaching style instilled a discipline that made NE the least penalized team in the NFL. It was said of NE that NE never beat itself. That was Bill's coaching.
Earnie Scouting made NE the best-prepared team in the NFL, while Scar's coaching of the Front line gave Tom the time to do his job.
When Scar and Earnie retired THAT is when NE started it downfall. Scar, Earnie, and Bill were a football triumvirate... They made NE great. Their work ethic instilled the players to work hard.
The offensive team in drawing up new playbooks to match each team's personnel every year was also a big part of the offense's success. They asked players to do what they did best. That is not how other teams work.
We saw in Tampa in year one, Tom and his HC were fighting, the HC wanted Tom to change how he played the game to fit what the HC liked to do. In the end, the HC was fired and Tom remained.
The Players still had to do their jobs and do them well and consistently. But great coaching and great scouting make it easier for them to do that job, allowing them to know what is coming to be better prepared for what will come during the game.
"Wars are won before they are fought."
Preparation and training make the difference in war and in sports. The better prepared and trained team will usually always win.
You don't need a video to know the dynasty fell for the same reason every great empire falls, players get old, and the cheaters move on without those two things it may have lasted longer.
Just don't think it will happen again but good luck with that guys
I find it completely bizarre that people call a game "boring". Are you really a fan? Do you live in the city that has the team? Born there?
Do you set your alarm clock to wake you up to watch a meaningless match against teams with losing records, after working a late shift just to watch them.
Is the Super Bowl the only game you watch, watched that year?
I find these games majestic the same.
But that's just me.
Not sure what game you're talking about but one that is absolutely boring is Superbowl 53
So you go for the Pats and your dad hates them? How’d you end up in that situation? 😂
We had a family member who played for them in the early 2000's. After he left the team I remained a fan but my dad did not lol.
Brady’s last year as a patriot he absolutely had no weapons whatsoever. I mean his last loss as a patriot was a game at home versus the Titans and we only scored 13 points… if they’re Antonio Brown and Josh Gordon thing had worked out that year. I’m sure we probably would’ve went to the Super Bowl. And that game against the Chiefs where it was ruled that Nikhil Harry’s foot was out of bounds … if we win that game those playoffs also would’ve been different
Tom left. There you go. I summed it up in 3 sec 😂😂😂
Malcolm Butler had a heated exchange with Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia during practice leading up to the Super Bowl, leading to Butler's demotion. Patricia was not happy with Butler's effort on the practice field and let him know it, which led to the blowout between the two. Belichick backed his staff and punished Butler.
Its the inevitable fate of all sports dynasties to come crashing to a devastating end. Its why theyre called “Dynasties”. They end up dying nasty deaths.
Quick correction. Bledsoe started the 2001 AFC title game due to Brady injury
Lamar Jackson
Patriots picked Sony Michel one pick before Lamar Jackson. He could have sat for 2 years behind Brady and continued the dynasty instead he ended the dynasty Nov. 3rd 2019 SNF when Baltimore defeated the 8-0 Patriots. Patriots lost their confidence finished 4-5 and Brady was gone to Tampa.
Kind of poetic considering Baltimore and New England was imo the best rivalry in the NFL for 12 years. Classic battles.
"How The Patriots Dynasty Came Crashing Down" I think most teams would be happy to come crashing down if that meant they were able to build such a record over 2 decades
Tom Brady left. Saved you 40 minutes.
I'm so happy the "Empire" finally fell. 2 decades of irritation is OVER!
The empire didn't fall it's under new management and it's name is the Kansas City Chiefs
As a Patriots fan, Kraft should've fired Belichick after they lost to the Giants the first time. He is the worst coach to win the Super Bowl and he has no game plan.
A Tom Brady caption with video footage of him holding a Lombardi trophy would’ve saved you 40 minutes.
Facts
"We sold our soul for the first three, and now we're cursed"
Really dude? Leave it to a Patriots fan to think that only winning three Super Bowls is a hardship. You poor guy. How do you muster up the strength to go on with your life when you are cursed with having to lose a few super bowls in between the six wins. Jesus Christ.
hey, we had a great run… thanks to all the patriots
Super Bowl 49 is the most important ring in Brady's career, it was the super bowl that made him the GOAT
I would like to see an alternate timeline where the Seahawks did become the new dynasty with three in a row, but Brady eventually wins more titles with the 49ers, his childhood team. Jimmy G and Belichick ruin the Patriots into irrelevancy.
Incompetence is a strong word. There is a reason every other team drafts players who dont work out. It is impossible to know who will make it in the pros and who won't.
You said crashing down but this is just a minor setback for a major comeback
no, hes gone. the patriots are no more.
its over
The pats fell the day Brady left. We hit rock bottom under Bill
Pats fans need to really thank the stars that Pete Carroll wanted to make Russ the hero not give the ball to beast mode cause my god.
Your timeline is all wrong. What about Victor Kiam or George Busch Ortwein? He bought the stadium and then bought the franchise to save it from being moved to St. Louis.
Nothing came crashing down. Everything ends.
Still most superbowls tie with steelers
thinking one man would have prevented that Superbowl loss is crazy Malcolm wasn't that good. it was the game plan. and word is Malcolm put his hands on belichicks son. and I agree with him. I don't care what anyone says.
"the Patriots Dynasty came crashing down because BB lost his draft mojo, following 2017."
there. i did in one sentence what wasn't clear in a 39:25 long video.
no shade, but this is like Tube Frog.
what's advertised as a deep dive into why the Patriots collapsed, turns into a 95% rimming session of Tom Brady.
I have no problem with Patriot fans celebrating their dynasty.
i have a problem with Patriot fans promoting a video explaining the downfall of said dynasty, only to really deliver a step-by-step account of how great the Patriots are.
i've lived this already. don't need a review.
this was as much use as a Dr. Oz episode on how to maintain sobriety.
Then came a new empire and it’s in Kansas City. I hope the Chiefs learn from the Patriots and eventually draft Mahomes replacement quarterback someday when Mahomes becomes old
U meant the 2016 patriots bro that’s when Brady got suspended for 4 games
Crazy to think Patrick Mahomes, and the Chiefs might win 6 rings.
They should have 11 rings, the NFL isn't competitive anymore.
@@millabasset1710It’s more competitive now than during the brady dynasty lmao. Manning a perrenial playoff chocker, fatass big ben and a fledgling phillip rivers were the only comp for brady in the afc most of the time
@@SycoticForeverNeverAF Josh Allen, Tua Turn the Ball Ova, Baker Mayfield and Running Back Jackson. What are you talking about? The NFL is almost as watered down as the NBA now.
How the dynasty fell? Simple the Dynasty was Brady. After he left, it was over. Kraft and Bellichick tried to act like they were a big part of it. They weren’t. They just got lucky with Brady.
That’s clear now
And we all relish in this team's demise and hopefully it stays that way.
Kraft was far more ruthless in buying the pats. He bought the land, and parking around the stadium and bled them to death.
Belichecks ego got in the way, he always thought it was his scheme and forgot that every playoff win Belichick had in the 2000s was with Brady under center. Belichick had a front row seat to Brady defying odds and still vet against him. Patriots could of and should of been the first team to win 3 Superbowls in a row but bill benched Malcom butler and wasted Brady throwing for 500 yards in a Superbowl! Without Brady Belichick got exposed. While without Belichick Brady had 3 playoff appearances , 2 division titles and a Superbowl win. While in 10 seasons WITHOUT Brady Belichick has 2 playoff appearances and ONE playoff win back in 1995. Belichick wanted to go with Jimmy glass in 2016/17 and Brady had more success in his 40s than Jimmy gerapelo has in his entire career, Jimmy can't make it past week 5 even starting the season as a backup. Belichick traded gronk to Matt Patricias dumpster fire lions and gronk threatened to retire and had the most important catch in that last Superbowl. Those two moves alone would take away 2 rings from pats.
I have to know how you and your dad ended up liking two different teams
Yeah, Belichick booted Tom Brady off of the team
In SUMMARY… PRIDE is why they cashed and burned.
We just suck without Brady, that’s all there is to say
Tom Brady left .. the end.
Basically lmao, funny how Brady shows up and superbowls after superbowl but when he leaves team crumbles. Shows it really was just him
Four words. Letting Tom Brady go.
Only took 'em twenty years.
There is only 1 reason it fell and he went to Tampa.
