[QUOTE=NC_Skins;778648]Anybody that thinks the Pats window is closing or if Tom Brady is on the decline is absolutely insane. Let's look more closely as to why the Patriots haven't done as good the past 3 years.
I don't recall anyone saying the Pats window is closing or that Brady is on the decline. Altho his weakness has definitely been exposed. What is happening is that the Pats are not the only elite team in the NFL anymore. In fact according to your graph, they have been on a steady decline in Ranking since 2006
With so many elite teams competing at a level higher than NE, and taking Brady's age in account, odds are he may have seen his last SB.
Just as the front 4 of the Giants exposed Vick, The Jets have exposed Brady. Sure they are still a great team but, the same old thing just wont do anymore in todays NFL. And just for the record, I agree with mredskins, SB MVP doesn't really amount to much.
