On this date in 2003, Brady throws 4 first half touchdowns in 31-0 season finale Win vs Buffalo

Redemption from the first meet that season lol

They lost by the same score to the Bills in the season opener after the Patriots released Lawyer Milloy and Buffalo picked him up. That was the origin of Tom Jackson’s “they hate their coach” quote.

Winning by the same score they lost to them in the opener that season

Didn't we lose 31-0 to them in the first game of the season?

Izzo’s INT at the end was poetic

That grass field was lethal this time of year.

25 years of pure joy.

I watched this at my friend's house in Providence RI. I'd just got home from the Navy. We drank the few beers his dad had left. So, at halftime we went to the store down the street. Replaced his dad's 6 pack w/ a 12er and got some for us. His dad was most pleased w/ the gesture.

Vice versa score from earlier that season at Buffalo

The Patriots had great coaching and personnel bosses in those days. Especially offensive coaching and draft expertise. Largely absent today. The personnel aren't there that were around Brady. Nor the coaching.
