HOUSTON, WE HAVE A CHAMPION! The Lombardi Award winning sequel to "Silence of the Rams," Tom Brady and the Homeland Defense star in "On The Trail of the Carolina Panthers." Check out the Latest Release: "Beat the Eagles"

The remarkable sequel to 2001's "The Silence of the Rams." Coming February 1, 2004, Tom Brady in "On the Trail of the Carolina Panthers." A story of a dominant team, overcoming adversity to face one more challenge before the end of the season. It will take eveything they have. Rated SB (Super Bowl) for Championship calliber play and superb defense.

When last we left the young Patriot team, they had shocked the world in Silence of The Rams two years ago. Since then, they have won 14 straight games, en route to finishing the 2003 Campaign 14-2. Having won 2 playoff games in dramatic fashion, "Trail of the Carolina Panthers" picks up where "Silence" finished.

The team aims to become the only team in NFL history to win 10 games against teams with 10 wins and 6 games against teams with 12 wins. This is a good football team with something to prove for the ages. The question is: Can they do it in Houston? Find out in Silence Part XXXVIII: On the Trail of the Carolina Panthers.

ACCOUNTABILITY:
Gregg Esterbrook notes the following in hisTuesday Morning Quarterback Column as "Bad Predictions, Category Five" (Somewhat edited to point toward the responsible party - don't forget I said the Pats would kick butt by 20+ points)

Ron Borges of the Boston Globe declared, "If you want to see points scored next Sunday, go to a basketball game. Super Bowl XXXVIII will be about a lot of things,but it won't be about offense."

Rick Morrissey [No Relation Here], Chicago Tribune: "The Panthers aren't going to be able to generate much offense."

Pete Prisco of SportsLine.com: Expect "little in terms of excitement. Can we spell B-O-R-I-N-G?" Vic Carucci of NFL.com predicted the game would be "low scoring" and said the Super Bowl "will be decided by two, maybe three big plays -- all of which I expect to come from New England." Dave Kindred of The Sporting News foresaw, "Send flowers to poor Jake Delhomme, the Panthers' quarterback, an unassuming player who has, of course, much to be unassuming about." Delhomme threw for 323 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. Vinnie Iyer of TSN added, "The Patriots' running game will go nowhere." New England rushed for 27 yards.

The Glorious Road to Super Bowl XXXVIII

The MOJO Jersey At Work:

This is the hero of the story, receiving the magic Jersey for Christmas, 2002. The next Sunday, while the Patriots were losing the final game of the season - a game they had to win to even have a shot at the playoffs - our hero raced to the bedroom and applied the magic jersey.

Remarkably, the Patriots turned that game around and won in most dramatic fashion...and lo, mojo was bestowed upon the jersey.

In the first game of the 2003 Season, our hero was busy painting the deck - and thus not wearing the magic jersey. The Patriots went down to defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Bills 31-0. Karma had not occured to our hero, and he thought nothing of not wearing the magic jersey.

He wore the magic jersey the next successive weeks, whereupon New England played to impressive wins over the Eagles and Jets. Still not fully appreciating the effect of the magic jersey, our hero failed to wear it the next week to his inlaws, and the Patriots went down in defeat to a team, in a game, they should have won.

Since then, the magic jersey has been a part of the magical 2003 season, having been worn every game since, to remarkable consistency. The Patriots are 17-0 when the magic jersey is worn (including that first game against Miami back at the end of 2002) and 0-2 when the magic jersey is not.

Alas, it becomes quite clear that this is indeed a Kharmac jersey which will be fully applied against the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have no shot against a mojo as strong and powerful as the magic jersey. The numbers are indisputable.

2003 New England Patriots: One of the greatest teams in NFL History.

...at least until the 2004 incarnation.

15 consecutive wins. 2 Super Bowl victories in 3 years. Brady 6-0 in Playoff Games, 2 Super Bowl MVP awards, Youngest Quarterback to win a Super Bowl, Youngest Quarterback to win 2 Super Bowls, First to go to and win 2 Super Bowls in his first 4 seasons, the only active quarterback with 2 Super Bowl rings.
