History of the Patriots

For over a century, the New England Patriots have been one of the most successful and iconic teams in NFL history. The team has won six Super Bowls, appeared in 11 AFC Championship Games, and captured 18 division titles since its founding in 1960. But it wasn’t always easy for the Pats. After struggling through their first few decades as an organization—which included just three winning seasons from 1962-1979—the team began to turn things around under head coach Bill Belichick beginning in 2000 when they won their first Super Bowl title against St Louis Rams.

Since then, Tom Brady has become one of the greatest quarterbacks ever to play football; leading his team to five more championship wins with four MVP awards along with them too! He is widely considered by many fans as being responsible for taking this franchise from mediocrity into a dynasty that will be remembered forever throughout sports history books!

The Patriots' success isn't limited only on the field either: off-field activities such as charity work and community outreach have helped make them an even bigger name than before - especially among younger generations who are growing up idolizing players like Julian Edelman or Rob Gronkowski instead of former greats like Joe Montana or John Elway! This type of positive influence can go far beyond what happens on Sundays during football season – it can help shape our society's values today which makes the New England Patriots organization so much more than just another professional sports club but rather a part integral part of American culture itself.
