**SB 51** - the matchup so good it ought to be banned

holy shit you guys what the fuck

xp the drop back that led to the sack out of field goal range on their last drive too. tempting to wonder if kshan was believing his own hype

lagooooOOOON!

*cmdr klink fist shake*

hi thank u what an amazing game

keep thinking about the sack/fumble on 3rd and 1. I have no clue why the Falcons didnt just run on every play (especially given how well their run game was playing), even if you 3 and out every time you're still basically a lock, so long as you recover the onsides. they weren't even running the clock out, they were snapping w/ like 20 seconds left on the play clock

yup very similar to the bad play calling by pete carroll 2 years ago

better coaching by their opponents and the pats have 2 fewer rings

*meditates on how dum everything is*

fucking pats man! i didn't watch the game and had this whole plan to avoid finding out the situation until it was over.. ran into a sad pats fan outside my apartment building who looked at me and said "the pats are getting killed! atlanta scored three touchdowns! it's like 21-3!!"

so i thought okay this isn't good but remember that pats-broncos game where they came back on peyton manning and won.. and then i went to a movie and checked my phone at 11:45 and was like WHAT THE

(i know its kind of chickenshit to not watch but i have this issue with heart palpitations when stressed and its been kind of a problem lately with the situation in this country)

brady GOAT obv, matty ice now matty lite

totally wacky game that will take me a while to put in perspective. the pats are just insanely patient and bled by the bucket until they figured atl out.

atl runs three times and its over

seriously how hard is it to run clock with that kind of a lead

how hard is it to run the clock ~in field goal range~

up by 8

it's pretty hard when you psych yourself out really bad

it's pretty hard when you believe your own myth too

true that makes it difficult

ppl will lol at me for this but tactically the patriots can rarely be accused of hubris; meanwhile mike shanahan's son actually thought he had figured this game out

i have to find a replay on the internets and watch asap. seriously, i know the pats are evil and evil will always triumph but there is no way any team should be able to come back down 25 points in the super bowl what the fuck

are we sure this has really happened or am i now on earth 2 and hillary won the election

oh man i gotta change my name i think brady's free

after all thats happened over the last year if i woke up from a coma tomorrow a completely different person, the united states and maybe even the earth not real things, id just be all yeah i fugured

"once yr tentacles regain strength you can return to designing website for the brands" *stares expressionless into camera* fin

i had really just come to terms with the pats losing the game once i heard about the score at halftime. how did this happen

i had the same experience except i watched the game

lol http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/mark-wahlberg-patriots-fan-leaves-super-bowl-comeback-article-1.2965093

paraphrasing what was correctly said about the cubs' world series clincher this past year: joe buck is woefully underqualified to announce games like this.

hooo-ly fuck!!!!! this is what I wake up to after bailing on the game after the 3rd quarter hahahahaha

So, who won? I've just watched two long news reports on the Superbowl, one on BBC, one on Sky, and neither showed so much as a second of the match or told you the result. LOL Britishes.

So we got our revenge by making them another shitload of cash

silver lining to all this is that James White, an ex-Badger, wound up pretty much being the non-Brady MVP, which as a Wisconsin sports fan gives me at least some reason to not hate all this

Shanahan takes 49ers job with Falcons' run over

just saw this headline on ESPN and initially missed the key apostrophe

i just watched the full game and what struck me was definitely how patient new england was.. there wasn't some epic meltdown by atlanta.. just chipped away at it and so many things had to go right for NE, and somehow they did. man. how do you have a 1st down at the 22 and go backwards out of FG range

by not running lol

lol Atlanta completely melted down tho

where the players play

Literally could have just taken a knee twice and won the game

i don't think anyone has any complaints about the fairness of this result, but current playoff overtime rules don't seem ideal

i feel like they are in a good place right now. you think both teams should be guaranteed a possession?

yeah, i think so. obviously there's the argument 'play some defense' but i'd like to see both sides forced to do so.

i was honestly kinda shocked by the sudden death rules, i thought both were going to get at least one possession

One possession each would be fair. It was clear that the coin toss basically meant game over. As much as I like the result, it's hard to argue that it's the fairest system.

good job

yeah the if a field goal get a second chance but not a td ot rule is kinda odd, they cld just even play a whole quarter wld that be so bad

no idea why they just don't do the college way. its absolutely perfect.

why not just do college rules it is 100x more exciting

lol didnt even read spottie's post, spottie otm

it really is perfect idgi

hate the college rules, eliminates special teams.

and hate playing a full quarter, teams are already too tired at the end of 4.
