Honestly it was like watching a Big 12 game.

Yeah, it was really exciting but I'm not sure it was indicative of what the NFL looks like when two elite, healthy teams are playing each other.


Some have called it the worst defensive game ever, not only postseason, ever

But yes, entertaining as hell

Defenses tend to wear over the course of a game.
I actually thought the Eagles pass rush was finally hitting its mark at the end of the game.

Eagles secondary was just...weird. Their defense should've lost them the game. Their plan was to put their best guy on someone not named Gronk and make the Patriots beat them with Gronk and continued with this plan even after the Pats lost one of their receivers.

I also do feel like the Super Bowl swung on trick plays (awesome!) and the refs (WWE entertainment) so it doesn't really leave you with that 'those guys are definitely the champs!' feeling that you want after a great game.

"Most Hits in Postseason History"


Honestly, although true, I dont care about that, I care when the Yankees win or lose, and I know you care about the Pats winning or losing, but there are absolutely others that are just please that Brady played well, and could care less about the loss
I know I was just joking. I know how good Jeter was in the postseason.

Pretty much was a total embarrassment for the defensive coaches - on both sides. Probably a preview of what the NFL is going to become - fastbreak basketball on a soccer field... yuck!

Your auto-argue app is working great you two. Of course it's officially a fumble. Cripes.
Wow. You are a piece of work. You don't get how this actually went and you are thinking it's us with the issue? You were clearly wrong. Restate what you meant and Move on:L

and he was one 50 yard heave from not being in that position.
Absolutely agree with you. If Gronk gets a clean shot at the ball and pulls it down with time running out, that is by far...BY FAR...the greatest QB performance EVER. But...:noidea:

Why? Big ben threw for 500 yards a few weeks earlier

Something that happened twice in a few weeks we will never see again?

Doubtful

There is no more defense left in the game, not taking anything away from Tom, but its probably something that will happen.....

Well, with the way the NFL is going - I wouldn't bet on it Rock.
i doubt we see a defensive performance that bad on both sides of the ball again.

If I were to guess - I think we will see more rule changes to stimulate scoring in an attempt to bolster sagging popularity.

Well since 2001, there have only been 7 300-yard performances by someone other than Tom Brady in the 17 Super Bowls.

In the 17 prior to that, there were 8.
