00:00Tier one. These are the best team. We're starting with tier one. I like it.
00:04These are the...
00:05These are the best Super Bowl teams in Patriots history, if you ask me. 2004?
00:102014, 2003.
00:12Is that in order?
00:13To me, it is. Yeah, that's my...
00:15Those are my three.
00:16I think Cerrone generally got this right.
00:20Just to give you some quick numbers on each, the 2014 fourth in offense, second in defense.
00:25Ninth toughest schedule, 2014, fourth in offense.
00:30Eighth in defense, had tied for the eighth toughest schedule, so they both...
00:35had top ten schedules, and this is where the 2003 team takes a little bit of a hit.
00:40They were 12th in offense, first in defense, and they had the...
00:45the 17th easiest schedule, but I would also say in some of these teams, you do have to wait...
00:50what they were at the end of the year versus the beginning, you know, those are all subjective things, but to me...
00:55those were the three best Super Bowl teams in Patriots history.
00:58Perfect.
00:59Chef's kiss.
00:59Exactly.
01:00Yeah, I would have them.
01:00Okay.
01:01I'll give you my thoughts in a second.
01:02Okay.
01:02Tier two.
01:04Tier two.
01:052016 Patriots, I'd put them four.
01:10And this was, I'm going to make sure I'm getting my Super Bowl.
01:15This was the Atlanta comeback, if I'm not mistaken.
01:17Okay.
01:18That team did have the...
01:20easiest schedule in the league, but they made a historic comeback in the Super Bowl, just...
01:25passing that along.
01:262001 Patriots.
01:28Now, you would look at them and say...
01:30By the way, they were sixth on offense and sixth on defense, and they had the easiest schedule
01:33in the league.
01:34However...
01:35However, I would submit to you that by the final four, you know, four weeks...
01:40of the regular season, three weeks of the regular season, plus the playoffs, they were
01:44a damn good team.
01:45They were a hell of a lot better than they were at the beginning.
01:47So, while they did catch a lot of breaks along the way...
01:50They were also very, very good at the end.
01:52And tier two...
01:54I put the two...
01:552007 Patriots on this list.
01:57I don't put them in tier three.
01:58They're the only team in...
02:00the top two tiers that did not win the Super Bowl.
02:03The five previous ones, I have...
02:05mentioned all won it, but they were a historically good team.
02:10That was first in offense, fourth in defense, was 18-0 going into the Super Bowl.
02:15And then epically gagged.
