No Ronnie....we got that! Just lost 1 game....when your team goes to the Superbowl as many times as the Pats do.....you might lose 1 once in awhile!

Your starting to sound like a Yankees fan. 
Great game and its unfortunate that their has to be a winner and loser the fact that the game was close speaks volumes for both teams.

NEVER .......the pats are the greatest team ever
they didnt have to win the super bowl to prove that
they only lost one game all season long
========================================
Patriots "are" the greatest team EVER
TOM Brady "is" the greatest quarter back ever
Bill Belichick "is" the greatest football coach EVER
and nothing ....
even a super bowl loss is gonna change that !!!

Sorry to break your bubble, but there are a couple of other teams that went 18-1 and won the game that counted most.
84 Niners-- the Greatest Team Ever.
85 Bears.
There may be others but those are the two I remember off the top of my head.

you didn't break it
my patriots pride Bubble
is made of impregnable spherical diamond
that cannot be broken
and there's absolutely nothing anyone can say
that will make me think otherwise
Let me make that perfectly and ultimately clear
as i say and truly believe as i stated previously
NEVER .......the pats are the greatest team ever (to me)
they didn't have to win the super bowl to prove that (to me)
they only lost one game all season long
(and i'm very proud of them)
enough said...

Pretty much the same here.
As miserable as I am right now because it feels like a few doors closed that might never be re-opened (Seau getting a ring, Moss getting a ring, 19-0, one more Super Bowl win for our "old and slow" guys on the team) it's still been an awesome run that might not be over. Still an great core of players no matter what happens this off-season.
Being the day after the sting of it all is pretty sharp but with time I think the dominance of the past decade will come back into focus, Super Bowl loss or not. You can't take away those previous 3 Super Bowls or the record stats. The Mannings combined don't total the Patriots Super Bowl victories lately. So I'm ok with it. Misearble but ok as it was a great game and a good team won. There's been a lot of winning lately for the Pats even if the most recent biggest game wasn't a W.
Incredible game with an awesome "Brady-like" finish by Eli. The Giants wanted it and they took it by imposing their will. Can't go on the road like they did and then win it all without heart and skill. Plain and simple. Congratulations on a big and deserved win.
We know how good it feels.

I may argue that you need to add my 1976 Raiders somewhere on that list
16-1 and that 1 loss wasn't in the superbowl !

I would have mentioned it, but then there'd be a whole bunch of Ben Dreith references  You did get that one gift wrapped to a ceratin extent.
That was during the 14 game regular season--the Niners and Bears were 15-1 regular season. They're the only two one loss SB winners since the schedule expanded--I think.
