A viewer asks: “Contrast the Detroit Lions with the New England Patriots. If there is a team that is the carbon opposite of the Lions, it would be the Patriots. The Patriots have won six Super Bowls since 2002, and have appeared in more than that. If the Lions keep losing in unexpected, almost inexplicable ways, the Patriots do the opposite, they “win” in unexpected, almost inexplicable ways. They won last year’s Super Bowl, and are on track to even win another one this year. Quarterback Tom Brady is 42 years old, which is ANCIENT for an NFL quarterback, but if he’s winning Super Bowls, he’s going to keep playing! Brady is a great quarterback, because of all the winning. Yet he is not as highly regarded as a skilled quarterback like Dan Marino who never won a Super Bowl. Lions’ quarterback, Matthew Stafford, is actually MORE skilled than Brady, in that he easily and routinely makes more difficult throws than Brady. Stafford was selected first overall in the NFL draft, while Brady was drafted in the last round and was nearly not drafted at all. Yet Brady is just the “magic” man who whips up football miracle after football miracle after football miracle. What’s the difference and primary factors behind all this winning? For both the team and QB Tom Brady? If Barry Sanders was a victim of the Lions’ losing atmosphere, how much is Brady a fortuitous recipient of, versus contributor to, the Patriots’ winning atmosphere?”
