Patriots Returning To Scene Of Past Super Glory

HOUSTON – “We’re not like Dallas, who looks to the north and the east for approval.” – former CBS News anchor Dan Rather, on his hometown of Houston, Texas

The AFC Champion New England Patriots arrived Monday in Houston, one day after their NFC counterparts, the Atlanta Falcons. The Patriots opted for as little media hoopla as possible, which will come at them loud and strong all week long now that they are here. All week long, the Patriots will have to deal with DeflateGate, the Brady Revenge Tour, awkward moments on Sunday and Monday if the Patriots win and if Tom Brady wins MVP, anything but the most important issue, that being how the Patriots plan to slow down the Falcon offense.
