Well, the Patriots are a young team that has just kind of come out of nowhere into a Super Bowl team under the direction of Mike Vrabel.

Now, here's something that is just so interesting.

Mike Vrabel is a former NFL player who played with the New England Patriots and was a teammate of Tom Brady's and

was a key player in the previous Patriots Super Bowl reign.

And now in his first year as head coach of the Patriots, he's going to the Super Bowl.

So it's really a full circle moment for Vrabel in that sense, in terms of him really establishing himself in recent years as a really, really good NFL coach.

He was head coach of the Tennessee Titans, and now he goes back to New England.

And just one year, he takes them to a Super Bowl.

And if you talk to the players, and I was in their locker room in Denver after the victory in the AFC Championship game, and one player after another just really, really credited Mike Vrabel for the impact that he had on them individually.

Now you take that and put it collectively, and that's why the Patriots are in the Super Bowl.

And, oh, by the way,

They've got a phenomenal young quarterback in Drake May, and you will hear a lot about him between now and the Super Bowl.

I think you wonder about experience.

You wonder about the offensive line holding up, especially against a Seattle defense.

But, hey, they played against a Denver Broncos defense in a championship game that they were supposedly overmatched against, and they won that game.

Before that, they played the Houston Texans in a great defense.

They held up there.

And in the opening playoff round, they played a Los Angeles Chargers defense that –

supposedly, they were undermatched against.

So all that to say, they are learning on the fly.
