Tom Brady marching the team upfield in the final minute of the 2001
Super Bowl. Troy Brown playing offense, defense, and special teams. The
Tuck Rule. A rogue groundskeeper plowing a path for kicker John Smith at
the end of a scoreless, snowy game. Gino Cappelletti setting the AFL
record for points in a game against the Houston Oilers. These are the
moments Patriots fans love to remember, now retold by the players who
lived them.
Once a top team in the AFL in the 1960s, the Patriots have returned to
glory as one of the NFL's best franchises during the past decade, and
enthusiasm for them has never been higher. Sportswriters Jim Baker and
Bernard M. Corbett relive the evolution of the team, getting war stories
from players like Cappelletti, John Hannah, and Steve Grogan. Moving
through the team's biggest games, they put a fresh spin on the stories
all Pats fans love, with detail and color from the players who were
there, on the field, making history.
The Most Memorable Games in Patriots History is a perfect gift for the
serious fan-not just a collectible, but the kind of book you can hunker
down and enjoy.
