This victory required a Brady-engineered comeback from a 12-point deficit and smashed the Patriots' league mark for consecutive victories. "Going undefeated during the regular season is a remarkable achievement," 1972 Dolphins coach Don Shula said. "I know firsthand how difficult it is to win every game, and just as we did in 1972, the Patriots have done a great job concentrating on each week's opponent and not letting any other distractions interrupt that focus. If they go on to complete an undefeated season, I will be the first to congratulate Coach Belichick and the Patriot organization." Validation of the Patriots' inexorable march through the season can only come by adding a Super Bowl championship. Do that, and there'll be no challenge to their spot at the top. "Hats off to us," said record-setting receiver Randy Moss, who caught Brady's 65-yard bomb for the go-ahead score that set two major records. "I know a lot of people didn't think we were going to do it. A lot of people didn't want us to do it. "In this game of football, it's hard to go 16-and-0. As a football player and a fan of the game, my hat's off to this organization." Report

December 31, 200718 yr Author comment_8975 I do think they will be in the SB vs Dallas and that worries me a bit. The only way to beat the Pats is by playing perfect football for 4 quarters This wasnt a soft 16-0. They beat 6 of 11 playoffs teams and play hard every game. No team is invincible but the 2007 Pats are damn close. Report

January 1, 200818 yr Author comment_8995 The Eagles showed that the Pats can be slowed down. The Giants showed the pats can be scored on. If Owens comes back healthy and no other major injuries happen, the cowboys have the firepower to keep up and IMO the better D. We had them until mid 3rd quarter in the first matchup. Unfortunately, so did the Giants. Report
