PRECISELY, NOT, my point.

While i agree that the talk of GOAT was premature until it got done, it would also be ignorant of the History that was unfolding before us ~at the time~ to not acknowledge the potentiality for Perfection. My point is, that just because this season went bye-bye, it does not mean that they will not be considered the GTOAT so long as they can maintain thier torrid pace. Just because Miami went back-to-back and they won 3 SB, the perfect season does not make them the GTOAT, imho. They own the GREATEST Season of All Time, but would rank as the fifth or sixth GTOAT in my estimation.

What is MOST interesting to me is that it is not the PATS that are calling themselves, not Brady, and not BB, that are giving themselves these accolades. These opinions are coming from the WEEI Homers, experts, former players, former coaches, mostly media pundits, and objective Pro Football fans from across the nation ~you know the type of fans/talking heads that love the game for The Game, and are not intent on hating because their team was once great, never good, or all points inbetween?

Know what I mean, Vern?
