The Beginning of The Patriots Dynasty | Ernie Adams and Julian Edelman Relive Super Bowl XXXVI

[@gameswithnames]

What is your favorite game from the New England Patriots Dynasty?

[@sarathkrishnaswamy]

28-3!!

[@edsy24]

Super Bowls: Pats vs. Rams 2001 Pats vs. Atlanta Superbowl or The Pats vs Seahawks Superbowl. Deflate gate game vs the Colts. Because Fuck the Colts!

[@fireatwill7707]

The next one…ooops. Nah I gotta go with Malcom.

[@jestonipoe]

September 9, 2007 game - started it all the evil empire!

[@ThePhDSpanish]

Post-Season: 2014 SB - maybe the most complete game in terms of play quality from the two undisputed best teams in the league. 2014 Baltimore divisional and 2018 Chiefs conference championship are close too, but that Seahawks game had great defense, offense, and special teams from both sides, and came down to just a few key plays at the end. Regular Season: 2003 Pats @ Denver with the intentional safety taken for field position, TD to win it with 30 seconds remaining. I remember the camera was shaking on the broadcast because it was so loud, and then the stadium just went silent. This is maybe tied with the 2003 Pats @ Colts with the goal line stand to win

[@preemptive74]

Julian is a genius. He disagrees with the way his coach was portrayed in a documentary so you start bringing team guys in to show how it really was.

[@jameskim1505]

Edelnut is a real one

[@burneveryabc]

Ernie is a huge treasure I've never been so happy to just hear a man talk football for hours

[@RealRyanJKaz]

Imagine him AND Bill Belichick talking football together! It would be as epic as a conversation between 2 of the smart/ greatest football minds in NFL history AND the amount of material they’d compile/ talk about would be enough to fill an entire library/ 20 part NFL FILMS documentary!

[@edelfan2478]

I hope Julian has him on a 2nd time.

[@hbdejean6538]

Same here, and I’m a Saints fan. Really admire this man and what he’s accomplished with so many great players & coaches in New England.

[@alexr5911]

So many guys alienate themselves from the Patriots fan base when they leave. Julian is cementing himself as a top Patriot legend

[@BT1919]

Are you kidding me? I’m a life long Buffalo Bills fan and I STILL think Ernie is the greatest guest of any sports podcast at any time!

[@r.williamcomm7693]

Agree!! Some fans don’t understand his contributions nor that the Pats were technically not violating the rule as it existed at the time in spygate. Goodell tried to change a rule that required majority owner approval with a memo. Then the Pays had to fall on the sword so that Goodell could save face. By the way, your Bills have really built an impressive team. I was a Jim Kelly fan because he was from Western PA (I’m a Steelers fan but appreciate the entire NFL). You guys deserve a Super Bowl, especially after Diggs’ antics. I hope Diggs gets his block knocked off in Houston. Good luck this season! 🍀👍

[@AJ........]

Absolutely agree 100%...Ernie is such a hot sh!t and so much football knowledge and so many great stories....and told in such a chill entertaining way...just a cool guy

[@zeppelinmexicano]

You knew about Ernie? That blows my mind because most NE fans don't have a clue. This guy drew up the very play that Malcolm Butler used to beat the Seahawks, which I find almost unbelievable. But how the hell did you even know about the guy?

[@BT1919]

@@zeppelinmexicano Are you asking me That? If so, hell no, I had no idea about Ernie. As a Bills fan, if I knew about Ernie, I would have had even less confidence in the Bills beating the Pats in the Brady era and my confidence level was already a -3 on a 1-10 scale!

[@CamPerry93]

NFL network needs to give bill&erine a show going back and talking about old and classic game's

[@Roundwave23]

100% I'd pay big bucks for that!

[@RealRyanJKaz]

They both could be as epic/ fun/ interesting if not more so than the Sabols who created NFL FILMS!

[@jrocktheride]

F that. Bill should just do a podcast on his own and keep all the money lol. I'd definitely listen, fascinating to hear the real experts talk deep game theory and knowledge. Most of what you get on sports talk is amateurs who really have no clue. That's what's so fun about this pod and others. The players are starting it but the coaches take it to the next level.

[@ebtv7663]

I could listen to Belichick talk football history all day

The guy just rattled off like 40+ stories in a blink of an eye....you know he has a library of 1000s of stories. His life experience is unmatched.

Not joking: this is the greatest podcast episode produced by anybody, ever. One of the most unlikely guests in history. I never thought the public would ever get to hear from Ernie.

He truly is the genius behind the genius behind the genius. I could listen to Ernie for days and never be bored. I hope we get more of Ernie going forward. We need we want a show with Ernie and Bill just sitting around talking football. There is a massive audience for it no matter what team they root for would love to see it and listen. Ernie deserves recognition and should be in the Patriots hall of fame. Billichick deserves a night just like Brady just got. Without either our 9 Super bowls never happen. A sincere thank you to Edelman not just for all the years you were money for us but for everything you're continuing to do for us fans. I have enjoyed every single show you've done. Thank you. I'd love to see Bill sit down with you and I'd love to see Parcels do this show with you. His press conferences were some pure gold "she'll be fine" 😂

[@RealRyanJKaz]

every single episode that has ever been done on this podcast of Julie Edelman’s has been an absolute joy to watch and it’s only gotten better with the fact that they’ve got so many big names from before during the dynasty, all the way from Teddy brewski all the way up to Matthew Slater Mendola, and too many great players on that team, along with so many other personalities in the sports world, other NFL players, and also people at the top of their field, in every area of expertise and knowledge throughout the entertainment industry. This the Amendola, the Gronk and the Matt Slater are my four best favorite Mount Rushmore guest so far but I’m sure if they ever got the greatest coach of all time in Bill Belichick, and obviously the greatest of all time at quarterback, Tom Brady, which is what we all can’t wait to hopefully eventually see but Ernie Adams might be number one and Matthew Slater might be number 1A with the third runner up being Amendola and then like I said Gronk.
