The first 30 days of October in 2004 were pure bliss for sports fans in New England. The Patriots were the darlings of the NFL; boasting two Super Bowl victories over the past three years; and an NFL-record 21-game winning streak. But Halloween proved to be a nightmare for New England. In Pittsburgh; the Patriots fell to Ben Roethlisberger's Steelers; and also lost their All-Pro cornerback; Ty Law; to a season-ending injury. In the weeks that followed; other key defensive backs missed time as well; leaving a once-dominant defense vulnerable to the pass. Such losses would be too great to overcome for most teams. But the Patriots bounced back better than anyone imagined possible. Utilizing a patchwork secondary; which included 33-year-old wide receiver Troy Brown as a nickel back; New England defeated Peyton Manning's Colts in a divisional playoff; and then won the rematch against Big Ben in Pittsburgh for the AFC Championship. All that stood between the Patriots and a third world title in four seasons was the most fearsome receiver in the game; Philadelphia's Terrell Owens; in Super Bowl XXXIX. So join NFL Films as they tell the story of the '04 Patriots; a team as resilient and creative as any in NFL history. America's Game uses exclusive interviews from Bill Belichick; Brown and Tedy Bruschi to recount New England's bid to become a dynasty.
