The Hardware Company - John Tomase, Boston Herald
If it feels like the history of the Patriots didn’t begin until Bill Parcells arrived in 1993, a perusal of the organization’s NFL awards winners certainly reinforces that perception. The Patriots haven’t boasted a lot of winners throughout the franchise’s history, but the last five years have been particularly bountiful, with the latest piece of hardware going to Defensive Rookie of the Year Jerod Mayo.
Here’s a look at the major leaguewide honors bestowed upon the organization since its founding in 1960:
