Did Falcons helped the Patriots dynasty remain longer?

Question

I still can't believe that they blew a 28-3 lead

Answer 1

Yep, they sure did. What a classic choke job that was.!

Answer 2

Partially yes the Atlanta Falcons chocked badly if they ran the ball and controlled the clock would have a Superbowl win but the Patriots are a great organization and the best dynasty the NFL was ever had seen

Answer 3

Yes. However, the Patriots deserve credit. They are a good organization.

Answer 4

Yes, for no apparent reason, Atlanta decided they'd rather the Patriots have it....

Jesus you people will go out of your way just to avoid paying the Pats any credit

Answer 5

And, with that defense!????????????????????????????????...

Answer 6

You could say that by choking in the Super Bowl they extended the Patriots dynasty. That had to be one of the biggest choke jobs I can remember in NFL history, right up there with the Houston Oilers blowing a 35-3 lead against the Buffalo Bills during the Bills run of Super Bowl losses.

Answer 7

The win against the Falcons did help the Patriots, but the perennial weakness of the rest of the AFC East contributes more.

Answer 8

No. That was only one game of many.

Answer 9

New Orleans guy here. Our last 2 seasons haven't exactly went the way we thought either.
