Expectations have been the Super Bowl every season for the last two full decades. Spoiled? Ya think.

As long as the Patriots remain at the top, all their fans want is for the team to seize the moment and perform their best. Along the way most criticism of any beloved Patriots figure is met with rather extreme sensitivity.

Surprise, surprise.

As a result of all the winning, there exists a dynamic of groupthink where just about any suggestion of change involving beloved figures is met with polar opposition. A lot of people are hostile to others who expressly aren't afraid of being wrong, or singled out for saying something that could be construed as premature, or out of line with what the majority expect a typical Patriots team to do.

What do you expect though?

Objectively debating the merits of certain transactions amongst your own fan base is certain to draw biases, and with that, a clash of presumptive judgements from at least one side which can be unforgiving and brash.

It’s not coming from a place of judgement from me. It’s from a place of jealousy.

For having such a great team some of y’all are quite up in arms. I’d say y’all are spoiled. 

You should see the GDTs. Unbearable....

That's nice, but to be clear, I wasn't lumping you into what I posted. My post was more a commentary on the Pats fan base.
