But please read closely the description on that promo: the score referenced was acheived by STEVE GROGAN in 1979. Now you might think that's a tasteless dig at the interconference rival Jets, but as someone raised on Patriots football, I challenge you (or ANYONE for that matter) to find ANYTHING worth bragging about during that era in Patriots football. I only saw Grogan at the tail end of his career, and I must say that the first thing I thought when I saw that factoid was, "Holy crap, Steve Grogan's arm didn't fall off after 5 touchdowns?"
