Not on a special teams breakdown. Special teams is 1/3 of the team. The Pat's haven't been all that great this year.
Still, Special Teams are just as important to the success of the team as the Offense and Defense. If the game is won by better Special Teams play it is just as legitimate.

If the weather is bad as expected, it could easily come down to special teams. The game could be decided on a missed field goal or a fumbled punt return.

We'd done real well on ST this year, only one kick return for a TD. So having that punt happen last week was not nice.

I really wish they'd only take a week off between the conference championships and the Superbowl. February 6th is an oddly late date for the game.
On the bright side, pitchers and catchers will be reporting for spring training shortly thereafter! :o)
