Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

Of course it's scripted, it's the only way the Patriots can get wins.

Look, not every season can have the same highs and lows as any other season. At this point though, you gotta know the script writers are just saving the "Patriots Finally Implode" for a dire situation because the fanbase has become so comfortable with them as the recurring villain.

I have read the script and the script says: 39-33 patriots in a 4th quarter comeback.

Personally I think the NFL started going down hill when they gave Bill Belichick creative control over his character. Of course the guy is never going to lose if you keep letting him write his own story lines. It wasn't even that bad at first because it was fun to root against the Pats, but they totally jumped the shark with that whole Super Bowl comeback against the Falcons. At least the NFL made them drop the title to the Eagles last year. But lo, and behold look who is one game away from the main event yet again. Its been 8 freaking years in a row NFL how about giving some of the fun younger teams a chance to shine and develop?

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.
The Patriots are the HHH of the NFL, will give a really good storyline buildup, then inevitably make the cool underdog do the job to end the feud. Except last year when the Eagles went off script.

The Rams are going to win the SB because the California have had the natural disaster angle this year so the NFL is going to give them a feel good factor of winning the SB like the Saints did after Katrina

Looking cute, feeling cute.
If the script has the Chiefs facing the Rams in the Super Bowl, I don't really care to be honest, OP.

Though Saints-Pats in Atlanta would have maximum Hell Year potential, so there's that, I suppose. The Star Trek equivalent would be, uh, Enterprise ending their series with a Riker holodeck episode, just maximum lovely to piss everyone off.

They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!

To go full Benny the Snake, Pats-Saints would be like when Stephanie Brown became the first female Robin and immediately got murdered. Von Miller is still Bane, I guess.

I have further script details: Belichick has had Gronk malinger his injuries after being extremely owned by the lions double covering him, and will unleash the beast tomorrow to finally put the nail in Bob Sutton’s coffin.
