The wonder of the Patriots isn't just how they keep winning and winning and winning these Super Bowls. It is more than the blinding glitter from all those rings and their secured place among the dominant teams in history. It's their astonishing consistency, their unflappable composure, the almost matter-of-fact approach they employ to make the difficulty of what they have achieved seem so unremarkable.

Amid all the praise and admiration generated by their continued romp through the NFL, these Patriots leave you with the impression that not only did they expect to win Super Bowl 39 but that they expect to win a tot more before this incredible run is over.
