He was part of offensive line at left tackle that led the way for 133 yards on 25 carries (5.3 average) in the Patriots 20-17 victory in Super Bowl XXXVI over the St. Louis Rams. He was named to the Football News 2001 NFL All-Rookie Team in 2001.

In Super Bowl XXXVIII, he was instrumental in the Patriots' success against the Carolina Panthers' pass rush; the Patriots did not allow a sack to a very effective defensive line that featured Kris Jenkins, Mike Rucker, Brentson Buckner and Julius Peppers.

I just think he doesn't get the recongition that he deserves to get to be considered one of the top LT's in today's football.
Oh I agree. Matt light is a very underrated OT. He deserves some consideration imo to be classified in the "top 10" Ot's in the game.
