NFL - Discussion

Ditto. I hated seeing Pats win.

They had it. I just don't understand the pass situation. I just cannot

Emmit Smith tweeted "That was the worst play call I've seen in the history of football".

Totally agree! Must be devastating for Seattle fans. I strongly dislike Brady but he really is a great QB though :bigsigh:

I wanted the game to end in a tie. I can't stand either team.

On the plus side, Aaron won MVP and him and Olivia are adorable. #SmallVictories

It is

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades After being skewererd in the press the past two weeks and doubted all season long my patriots are world champs ! TB12 aka GREATEST OF ALL TIME !

Yay Renee! Congrats to the Patriots fans.

That was a crazy ending for the Seattle fans.

*edit* It's a stain, but we got caught, we got punished. *edit*

Deflate gate are allegations. There's no proof that the patriots intentionally deflated footballs. The NFL and Roger Goodell bungled every investigation this past season and tried to make up for it by nailing the patriots to look good to the public. They're swinging and they're missing, the investigation dragged on because they have no proof the patriots did anything wrong and they didn't want to look bad yet again. Then the leaks came because the nfl tried to convict us in the court of public opinion to lower the burden of proof. Oh well. No one can take this from us

Congrats to Renee and any other Patriot fans. I have to give the Patriots credit for scoring twice to take the lead. They didn't fold and got the pick when they needed it.

I have good friends who are Patriot fans so am happy for them also. I will never like the Patriots (nor trust what they say about any allegations) but the coach & QB are great at what they do. They're just so darn unlikable for non-fans.  :Nod:

I feel so bad for Seattle fans because that's even worse than my Tennessee Titans being one yard away from tying in their Super Bowl. This was self instigated and there's no reason they couldn't have run the ball in for the win. They're going to kick themselves forever.

Not sure if anyone here has read the articles, but it came out yesterday that ESPN was incorrect that 11 of the 12 balls were deflated. Only 1 of the 12 balls was actually considered to be deflated. Just 1 ball! But of course the media must continue to blow everything out of proportion because everyone, especially the media, hates the Pats in regards to spygate, when you have other NFL coaches publicly admit they did the same thing as Belichick, well that's all I need to say

Regardless, that catch from the Seattle player was pure luck down by the endzone and a similar play cost us the Super Bowl against the Giants. It was about time we had some luck on our side given how dominant we've been for over a decade. Dumb play by Carroll and a great read by our undrafted rookie Butler.

Crazy to think I've been to 3 parades in the past almost 5 years for my sports teams. It's great being from Boston.

Nice of the Seahawks to thug it up in the end and punch our players in the face for no reason or for Sherman to mock Revis in the camera. I never had any issues with Seattle, but yuck.
