My problem with this dynasty is that after not making the Superbowl 2 years ago, talks of the dynasty should have never begun the next year

This is redicolous. So as soon as a team fails to make a super bowl, their run for a dynasty must start over? By this test, there has never deen a dynasty (unless you want to count Buffalo of the ninties for loosing 4 straight). None of the teams that are considered dynasties made three conseutive super bowls. It's these kinds of crazy statments that perpetuate the notion that the Patriots aren't respected.

"I think dynasties should be longer lasting then just 3 superbowls outta 4 years."

So there's never been a dynasty in the NFL in the 39 years of the Super Bowl?

I don't know that I consider NE a dynasty yet. 3 championships in 4 years... I feel like Dynasties need to endure longer, for me anyway.

Who cares?

I'm not saying that to be a dick about your post. I just think its kinda dumb all this media talk about "Dynasty".

It's obviously a question that totally depends on how you define dynasty. IMO, no they aren't. In other peoples opinion, yes they are.

So all this media hype about "dynasty" to me is really one giant argument about a definition, and I think its just pretty pointless.

Of course it's a pointless discussion. In other words, perfect for OOT [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].

Anyway, this article states the case against better than I can.

give yourself more credit. the article doesnt make much of an argument for the non-dynasty tag, as he is comparing football to basketball when i already pointed out that it is easier to win a cluster of titles in the NBA than it is in the NFL.

The reason that its easier to win a cluster of titles in the NBA, is because the best team wins a much higher percentage of the time (thanks to best of 7 format). So its not really easier, its actually harder, its just easier for the best team to show they really are the best team, therefore its easier to see when a dynasty is actually occuring.
