I kinda think that is the reason they lost to the Giants. But why were they the only team in the league to do this??

Update:

Look i don't need to smart azz comments. I was saying they lost it from a superstious point of view idiot.

    If your talking about two superbowls ago(18-1 season), they lost because the Giants used week 17 to tape the offense from all sides(not cheating apparently) and they saw that Nick Kazur was struggling blocking to his right. They put a blitz on the spot during the superbowl and made him reinjure his knee. The offensive line fell apart, and they lost off a lucky pass by Eli Manning. The patriots never played the giants this season, and Sean Taylor died between the super bowl and the 2008 season.

    The Patriots wore the #21 for Sean Taylor, for the first recreation, following his lack of existence. Then, the Patriots, alongside with various different communities, mutually with the Giants, Dolphins, and eco-friendly Bay bumped off the stickers. The Patriots were donning the kind ninety one on their helmets because the first recreation of this season, in honor of Marquise Hill, who died at the same time as saving a youthful lady in a jet ski coincidence, very last August. I under no circumstances listen any Patriots followers fussing because no man or woman on the different communities, wore the kind ninety one..... Whoever is fussing about the Patriots and the different crew no longer donning various a participant for yet another crew, needs to look deep at their causes, they don't look as organic and altruistic as they'd like people to imagine. in truth, they're exceptionally and attempting to reason issues, the position there must be no longer some thing yet appreciate fore the lifeless.

    It was a tragedy, but it is time to move on. You can't keep these things going on forever, even in the NFL (as we have just seen with the lost players on a fishing trip) tragedies happen to fellow teammates. Unfortunatley it is life, but saying that a team lost because they took Sean Taylor's sticker off is idiotic.

    Really, that would make you a moron. What does a sticker have to do with a football game.

    They chose instead to wear marquis hill's sticker, a team mate that had died during the previous spring.

    Nah, it was because a black cat walked under a ladder which knocked a mirror off the wall and broke into a million pieces in the Patriots locker room right before the Super Bowl !!!!

    Taylor was given appropriate respect and recognition and you need to get over it.

    If they lost to the Redskins you may have an argument. Instead you sound silly. Anyway the Patriots WEREN'T the only team to. The difference is most teams still had at least one player wearing the sticker. Blame it on the Miami U influence.
