“Hey Dad, what was it like watching the Patriots Dynasty?”

  1. It was like a James Bond movie. “I wonder how they’re going to win THIS one?”

    And they always did.

  2. I wish I were born just a little earlier so I could’ve been able to sit and pay attention to the first half of the dynasty. By the time they had their third ring I was just getting into grade school.

    The first game I actively paid attention to was the Titans snow game in ‘09, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Hoping the young fans get to watch something similar with The Drake. Who doesn’t love The Drake?

  3. I’m not crying, it’s the onions(day drinking in reality who the fuck am I kidding).

  4. Just a minor grievance, this was only like half of the dynasty, time wise. Not exactly half, but Gronk and Edelman didn’t join the team until 2009, 2010, and by that point the Pats had won 3 SBs since 2001. Just throwing that out there…

    That being said; ahh yes, the good old days. Being a fan meant being surprised when they DIDN’T go to the SB. I mean, I didn’t know what it was like trying to watch when your team’s not playing.

  5. I don’t care what anyone says, Edelman’s insane catch during the Superbowl against the Falcons was the greatest catch of all time.

  6. The thing is, if you actually watched it… it was two dynasties. This video is of the second dynasty

  7. Just caught myself unconsciously fist-pumping along with Brady after that Edelman TD. Man, those were amazing times. The feels!

  8. My partner still says she won that falcons game for us. We were down 28-3 and she said “I’ll stop watching and started playing some dumb piano game on my phone”. We started coming back so I was like “keep playing!” and she did. She played so long she was probably hurting lol. She played until we scored the game winner.

    So we all owe her a thank you

    she needs a statue at Patriots place

  9. It was actually two dynasties! 2001-05, then 2014-19. The video footage is all from the 2nd one.

  10. you can tell whoever made this is still in the late 20s / early 30s… missing some other glory years. But great idea

  11. Knowing if we were behind by less than 7 points with 4 minutes left, the other team fucked up and we were about to win another game.

  12. You can’t truly understand what it was like without also knowing what it was like before Brady. The pain of the shit years is what made the Brady years so satisfying.

  13. What was it like…?
    Well, if you’re into cyckling these days then fairly similar to being a fan of Tadej Pogacar now. No matter what race and what conditions, you expect him to win, and it’s a bit surprising if it dont happen.

  14. As much as I loved the second half of the dynasty, Ty, Willie, teddy, lawyer and Richard were something to see. Those defenses were so good.
