The New England Patriots have dominated the NFL for two decades now, and it’s clear that their dynasty is on the back end. I am not discrediting them at all, but I do believe that a lot of their success over the past several years has been a direct result of other team’s failures combined with fluke circumstances that have helped them.
The Patriots are going for their sixth championship on Sunday against the Rams, who they beat on a last second field-goal to start their dynasty. I give Patriots coach Bill Belichick 80% of the credit for making New England’s dynasty sustainable for as long as it has been.
