The whole “haven’t won an SB since cheatergate” thing is kind of destroyed by the fact that they went 18-1 that year. Really if it wasn’t for running into a Giants team that found ways to gut out 2 improbable wins largely on one major play each the Pats are 5-0 in the SB and finish that season 19-0. If they couldn’t find a way to cheat under the NFL’s watchful eye how did they rattle off 17 straight wins with an average margin of victory over 20? Maybe they were just that damn good.

You sunk your own argument in the first line of your post: “The whole “haven’t won an SB since cheatergate”.
I repeat: The cheatriots have not won an SB since cheatergate. I rest my case, your honor! LOL
;-)
Can't forget how the Giants advanced thru the season into the playoffs by faking injuries to stop the clock.
Almost seems like cheating. And this year I guess the seahawks have more penalties than even the cheater patriots...seems like they are trying to gain an advantage, and getting caught for it.
Like I said in another post, it is almost like pro wrestling these days. I was gonna watch the game this weekend, but my daughter needed to watch Mulan...so I lost out on the TV.
