Rivers is pretty good, he can take them to the SB.

For the first time since 2015, the New England Patriots will not be in the Super Bowl. The Los Angeles Chargers, will win the AFC West, will be 13-3, and will go on to represent the AFC in Super Bowl LIV, defeating the Saints. Time for a change.

Why will it be hard to see future dynasties after the Patriots dynasty ends? Why? Is it that hard to make 13 AFC title appearances in 18 years? Add the Golden State Warriors in the mix from the NBA as well. Why? (1)New England Patriots--.731%, 263 wins,97 losses. Made postseason 16 times out of 20 seasons and won 30 postseason games. Won division 16 times. 13 AFC title appearances,Made 9 Super Bowl appearances and won 6 Super Bowl titles.

Why not? It would determine AFC supremacy.

Remember from 2001 to 2010, the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots represented the AFC in 2001, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2009. Do you miss the Colts-Patriots primetime battles that would most likely determine homefield advantage in the AFC?

I think they could have beaten the 49ers.

What happened to the 1994 Buffalo Bills? Why did they not get a chance to go to their fifth Super Bowl appearance?

Six (6) Super Bowl championships from 2001 to 2018 Super Bowl XXXVI, Super Bowl XXXVIII, Super Bowl XXXIX, Super Bowl XLIX, Super Bowl LI, Super Bowl LIII Nine (9) AFC Championships (9 Super Bowl appearances) The Patriot Way. We will never see this type of dynasty again, with the way how the salary cap in the NFL works. How does the Patriots do it? https://www.bostonherald.com/2019/02/03/keegan-adhering-to-patriot-way-guides-team-to-another-super-bowl-and-beyond/

Based on that horrendous NFC Championship game result on Jan. 20, I think the Saints are the favorites to win Super Bowl LIV.....or was this year the last chance?

The Brees-Payton Saints have been to the playoffs (2006) (2009) (2011) (2013) (2017) and likely (2018) **The bolded shows the Saints' 13-3 record, their Super Bowl XLIV championship season Legendary Saints quarterback Drew Brees won't be playing forever. Where will the Saints be post-Brees and can they build a franchise that continues to be a perennial contender?

The 2007 Indianapolis Colts season was a failure because they failed to repeat and Manning and Dungy were back to the "can't win SBs". The Colts had the AFC's second seed, the cards were there for them to have another showdown with the 17-0 Patriots. What happened? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Indianapolis_Colts_season

Patriots, Cowboys, Steelers, 49ers, Giants, Raiders, Packers.

All NFL teams embrace this mantra, but very few teams do. Other than the New England Patriots under Coach Bill Belichick from 2001 to present, which other teams embrace this crucial mindset/mantra of winning games: "The Patriots have never embraced prosperity with much relish. They prefer to reflect the dourness of Coach Bill Belichick, who transmits the message that the only time for joy in football comes when the Super Bowl trophy is received." https://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/14/sports/football/patriots-are-disheartened-by-branchs-departure.html

Regardless of just winning the 2007 AFC championship and losing Super Bowl XLII (42) in one of the biggest upsets in sports history to the underdog New York Giants, the 2007 New England Patriots was one of the greatest football teams in history. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/9355518/nfl-2007-pats-wonder-been Will we ever see another 2007 Patriots-style team again?

Steelers have to beat the Patriots before Brady and Roethlisberger retires https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201701220nwe.htm Roethlisberger hasn't beaten Brady since 2011....7 years ago.
