So after 10 years the Patriots finally got that elusive 4th Super Bowl win. Most would say the Super Bowls they won in 2001, 2003 and 2004 made them a Dynasty so the question is: Does this Super Bowl 49 win continue that "Dynasty" or no? Also some other options if yes or no isn't your answer.

01-04 = dynasty. noone can argue that at all.
14, adds to the hall of fame resumes of bill and tom, but imo a "dynasty" has to maintain a fair amount of the roster doing it multiple times.

Dynasty needs 3 titles in 4-5 years. Need to have consecutive titles if you stretch it to 5 years. Not like you can link the 2009 Yankee WS to the 96-00 teams, and that's a 10 year gap too.

Not even close yes the earlier version could be considered a Dynasty this is just one title

Dynasty - no.
Continued level of excellence above anything since the Cowboys of the late 60's through the early 80's - no question. And that's pretty damn good too.

To be a Dynasty you need Joan Collins.

Well, if you will like me Zig and be my best bud and hang out together and take me to strip clubs and pay for a lap dancer and be my bodyguard when I tell some millennial what an asshole he is, then yea, sure.
If not, well then everything changes. Up to you.

i say dynasty.
can any other franchise match the level of superiority in any other SPORT for the same time frame?
they average about 12 wins a year, won every AFC east title but 2 (one when brady was hurt, and they won 11) and the 02 hangover.
so, since 2001
average 12 wins
9 AFC champ games
6 superbowls
4 wins

Both teams lost 2 games in the championship between, but the Yankees had 5 titles the Pats have 4. And the 5th Yankee title and the 4th Pats title are 100% not tied to their actual dynasty stretch.

The 5 WS titles, then 2 WS losses makes 7. Then 2004 against Boston obviously. Not sure if there was another one or not. So at least 8. BUT! 5 titles > 4 titles And either way, isn't the point if this championship should be tied to the dynasty era which ended 10 seasons earlier?

How many players from 2004 were on 2014? Its laughable. The Patriots had their dynasty and it ended in 2004. This is just an isolated championship by the same team. Same exact situation with the Yankees in 2009. Nothing to do with the 96-00 titles.

If you want to keep believing that, knock yourself out with your batshit crazy rock logic, but its completely absurd.

For the way people discuss it... They call this team "The Belichick and Brady Patriots"
Brady is literally the only player on the team to win four rings... So it's clearly a totally different team.
So if "dynasty" is the word you want to use or not use... This means "the Brady/Belichick Patriots"

I'm still waiting for a team to match Green Bay's three consecutive championships from 1965-1967. Well getting off of football for a moment, the Habs, 5 consecutive Stanley Cup wins would leap to mind.

if the pats could have beatn the giants once, I would say yes.
early run, dynasty. new title, impressive. but lots of "postseason" mediocrity mixed in
with that said, 95% of other nfl fans would kill for their success (and "mediocrity")

The fact that the mass holes had to split "no" into two separate items to make their low "yes" votes seem closer to the majority is adorable
