Poll Question: If Patriots lose this Super Bowl what is their place in history?

A. 6 Super Bowl appearances in 15 years, greatest dynasty ever
B. 3 wins cheating, 3 losses not cheating. It's self explanatory.
C. 3 wins and 3 losses. Win some, lose some

Why do you think they weren't cheating when the lost those Superbowls? Or at least pushing the limits of the rules? Getting caught doing something doesn't stop a team or player from trying something else. I never believed Shawne Merriman stopped taking PEDs just because he got busted once. He probably just used different PEDs or at least adjusted his schedule to pass future tests.

I have always had a problem with 3 point wins. Both Dallas and San Fran had big victories while the Pats just got by or lost. That's why IMO that can't be the Goat.

Cheaters got to cheat, cheat, cheat ... Just shake it off. Seriously, they have had an amazing run. And don't be surprised if they win it, these Pats only lose to Eli it seems.

Belichick will be a broken man, and he will retire into obscurity with Richard Sherman taunting him after the game and going into tears of rage on national television. He will look for Tom Brady and they will spoon each other to find solace, at which point Gisele will dump Tom on twitter.

History doesn't look kindly upon cheaters. From all the MLB steroid users to Black Sox scandal. Depending on the final outcome Brady and Cheat might have cost themselves the HOF.

D: When your team is involved in some type of controversial call in the 2015 playoffs, you are probably going to lose the next game.

No fair, D was not an option. lol

You mean "when", they don't have a shot now that they can't manipulate the psi of the ball. Quick! Call the church elders!

Love Brady.....Hope Seattle wins though.

Depends on what happens with this whole story. If it's not that big, then they will go down as 1 of the greatest dynasties, not the greatest, but 1 of.

Look at it however you want. They are a great team/franchise, gates or no gates

We make a big deal about it, but future generations won't care, particularly Patriots fans.

D does not fit for "legacy"

Although, I new you would take choice "C" - its basically, no firm stance. lol

I bet if I was a Pats fan I could get away with using a non-existent D lol

Personally, I've removed them from the discussion since they were unable to achieve the position without cheating.

Top 5 coach, top 5 qb. A super bowl here would really be nice for their respective careers.

This!

The 3 wins they have all came when they had a good kicker who could hit long FG's. Brady hasnt done it w/o his kicker.
