No doubt it's impressive, its any coaches dream to have that much success. Obviously the Pats have done a great job just putting themselves in the playoffs all these years. But why have they avoided failure in the playoffs while the rest of the teams eventually meet their end? Not because Brady or Belichick are that much better than anyone else. Recovering 5 out of 5 possible fumbles helps. Sometimes the ball just bounces your way.
