By winning their second Super Bowl title in the span of three seasons with their overtime victory against Atlanta, the Patriots — with another Lombardi Trophy over the next two years — could become just the second NFL franchise to stake claim to two distinct dynasties.
For this glance, we consider a dynasty to be a team with at least three titles over a span that includes no more than three successive non-championship seasons. The Patriots claimed their first such dynasty with three Super Bowl titles from 2001 -2004. If they were to win another over the next three seasons, they would be able to claim a second dynasty.
