To suggest that a team with arguably the best safety ever, best WR ever, best QB ever and HOF players at RB, WR(2)OL, LB, DB is a better 'dynasty' because they won 4 SB in 10 years doesn't factor in the 1- 6 years they missed out, not even making NFC championship in most of those, and the precipitous decline.
Dallas the same. HOF QB, RB, WR, TE, DL, LB, DB
Who, besides Brady and Gronk here, are going into the HOF as Patriots?
The Patriots, even when not in the SB, are in the conference championship annually. It's remarkable, it's literally 20 years with no decline and no let downs (in terms of not being there for a trip to the SB)
Aikmans Cowboys were a great squad for 5 years, you gonna really say that's more impressive or has a better ring to it than how history will treat this NE thing in the future?
Not to diminish your point, but consider that today the league is salary cap based to ensure parity as well, in the 80s & early 90s you could buy talent as needed (see Haley to Dal or Sanders to SF). It's not uncommon to see teams that win a SB literally dismantled in 3 years
Enjoy NE while you can. You'll never see this type of excellence again. Personally, I'm on the Rams because of the DLine, but it takes nothing away from the fact that NE just wins, year after year
They are thr greatest football club of the 21st century and the team is thd ultimate football stoty
