Cowboys are Merica's Team. Everyone knows that
Haha. I consider the Cowboys the Packers' greatest non-divisional rival, so I gotta take shots at them every now and then. ...All in good fun.

I don't know why it would be considered a snoozefest for 3 quarters. Maybe for the 1st quarter because the teams exchanged punts, and the third quarter because it just seemed like we would be waiting on the inevitable. But the 2nd quarter had 2 straight scores and then a pick-6. And the 4th quarter and OT was phenomenal.Id also love it as a Pats fan, but no SB that was a complete snoozefest for 3 quarters should be listed as the best
The Rams/Titans Super Bowl was 2 years before. But yeah, I think we had gotten used to the Super Bowl blowout at that point. There was 1 really good Super Bowl in the previous 8 (Denver over Green Bay). And in the previous 17 Super Bowls, 3 were decided by one possession (Denver over Green Bay, Giants over Bills, and 49ers over Bengals). In the 18 Super Bowls from 1999-2016, there have been 11.True and the 1 the year before Rams vs Titans was great. Tenn receiver got stopped on the 1 yard line and time exp and Rams won by 7 first real good SB in years, rest before were blowouts
You had no doubt the Falcons would blow a 28-9 lead in the 4th quarter?The thing with these is that a lot of those games, while maybe having exciting finishes were pretty sloppy boring games for the most part. Yeah, the Gmen ruined the perfect season for Brady and BB but the game was crappy. As for last year, by late in the 3rd quarter, did anyone have any doubt the Falcons would choke that away. Great comeback for sure, but predictable.
I voted Pats/Hawks. It was heartbreaking but that 4th quarter was like a title fight between 2 great boxers down the stretch. Trading punches.
Pitt/Zona was another great game like that as well but I am biased when it comes to the Steelers.

Maybe some doubt but not much.The Falcons were starting to look like the same old Falcons and Brady had his mojo going. Was hoping Atlanta could hold on but they weren't playing to win, rather playing not to lose and that always has disaster written all over it. It just had Houston @ Bills vibe to me.You had no doubt the Falcons would blow a 28-9 lead in the 4th quarter?

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking. I didn't really state it correctly in my first post.Cant say I knew it, but I knew Atlanta better not give them even a small window to come back, and they opened every window in the house
You probably could have gotten some pretty sweet odds on Bovada's live betting.Maybe some doubt but not much.The Falcons were starting to look like the same old Falcons and Brady had his mojo going.

Steelers Cardinals when you take into account James Harrison's INT return for a TD right before the half, then Santonio with the clutch TD catch in the corner

Yeah, even if they were the Patriots and had Tom Brady there is no way that comeback was "predictable" at that point.Brady had to put up almost 200 yards in the 4th Q and Pats had to make 2 2 point Conv down the stretch, I didn't think they were coming back
