  1. I’m… confused by this. Bill didn’t become HC in New England until 2001. They didn’t play each other between 1993 and 2001? Or are you referring to that one season he was DC?

  2. A bit of a weird stat since the Patriots under Pete carroll never played the Seahawks. And the teams didn’t play between 93 and 2004 because of the inter conference scheduling and Bill being here for more than 2 decades.

    The Patriots and Seahawks have not played each other without either Belichick, Gandhi, or Freddie Mercury on the sidelines since 1993!

  3. The Seahawks swept, 17-14 in Foxboro and 10-9 in Seattle.

    For the briefest of moments, we may have thought we made the wrong pick with Bledsoe, especially as he missed the latter game.
