Steve Sarkisian, who served as Alabama’s offensive coordinator the last two season, talks about Patriots 1st Round pick Mac Jones, how well he can learn the system, and how ready he is for the NFL
Tom Brady's 20-year career with the New England Patriots included so many incredible wins and triumphs, highlighted by six Super Bowl championships, nine AFC championships and numerous NFL team and player records.
There were some not so good moments, too, and none stand out as much as Super Bowl XLII. We all know what happened -- the Patriots blew their chance at a perfect 19-0 season in 2007 with a heartbreaking loss to the New York Giants.
