Tied after three....

Three to three after three.

Goff is killing the rams offense. Gotta step it up

He holds onto the ball for a loooooong time.

For sure. That’s a TD to cooks if he threw it earlier.

Yep.

Notice how much faster Brady gets rid of it.

Goff is playing at a Tannehill level.

Baker would have made that TD throw to Cooks on time.

Easily.

Dalton-esque QB play by Goff so far.

So far? Patriots D is just outplaying the Rams offense.

Goff left 6 on the field. It’s on him.
He’s not decisive.

Goff doesn't have enough time to throw and when he does? He holds onto the ball too long.

Nice no call PI to prevent the TD!

gotta be a ref decision to decide winner

Goff just here it up for grabs back to back, and it bit him the 2nd time.

Great run (sighs).

I said during the year that Goff is a younger rivers. Plays great until it counts. They didn’t have a chance against BB anyways. He is a defensive mastermind

GOAT Brady has 6 on his fingers like Jordan

One of the worst super bowls I've ever seen.

Omg I hate the media, that scene at the end with them basically crushing everyone would have me swing on some of them. Christ let them breathe

It was easily the most boring in my lifetime

Best qb coach and team in nfl history

I've said this and I'll say it again, the playoffs are always better than the super bowl.

Yes, the absolute worst.

It would have been much better with the Saints in there. They may not have won, but there would have been much more offense on both sides.

Wonder if they'll ship Gordon's ring to his rehab facility....

...another thing. Does anyone else think the gatorade dump on the coach has run it's course? It just seems stupid anymore.

The playoffs sucked too.

Nothing was any fun after watching Baker play. Baker > all of them.

I thought most of the playoff games were disappointing this season, too one-sided, no?

All-in-all the better team won tonight. I'm sick to death of the Patriots, but I definitely respect their game.



P.S. Crazy on that field afterwards.

j/c:

I read a few posts on the last page and saw this stuff about Goff holding the ball longer than Baker. LOL...okay.

Anyway.......the first half was very rough. Some ragged play by both teams on offense, but excellent defense by two masters in BB and Wade.

Edelman should win the MVP. Dude is a stud. I wish we would use Landry like the Pats use Edeleman.

I'm actually glad the Pats won. Old school vs new school.

I loved Bill Belichick when he was here in Cleveland even though the fans and media hated him. I still love him as a coach. No coach is more thorough that he is.

And the thing I love about him the most is how he always, always says it's about the players. I had some success as a coach a long time ago and I'm telling you, it is about the players. If they buy into what you are selling and they work as a true team and they have some talent....the sky is the limit. It's not the coach. It's the players.

With that said, I really do think BB is a great coach. The best of all time.

I was also a big fan of Belichick when he was in Cleveland.

I thought that he handled Bernie's end rather ..... inartfully ..... but he was a really good coach, and in retrospect, he assembled a great staff.

That was the greatest NFL staff ever assembled. And we were robbed of what could have been.

People don't worry about the carperbaggers ..... but if Indy hadn't stolen the Colts, then Baltimore wouldn't have stolen the Browns.

People wonder why I say I will NEVER support the Rams, Cardinals, Ravens, Colts, Titans, Chargers, or Raiders. (off the top of my head) Teams that twist the knife in their fans' backs don't deserve anyone's support, especially not by fans of a team that was stolen.

I don't care that the Pats won ... but I am glad the Rams lost.

Fixed it for you.

Congratulations NE.

I hate that penalties / referees weighed heavily on which teams played in the Superbowl.

I hate that I almost forgot that WWE had a halftime wrestling match and Maroon 5 was on my TV for a minute or two ( that shall never happen again)

And I hate that I had to sit through this abomination of a football game where "the best defense in the NFL" acted like the Patriots where playing with 12 guys and Edleman was number 12.

My thoughts on the Super Bowl:

- All those people complaining that the Super Bowl was hard to watch ... well now they know how Browns fans felt for the last 6 years or so. I saw that graphic for the first 7 drives and how most were three and outs with a few 5 and outs mixed in. I turned to my friend and was like, "Hey, it's like watching a pre-Freddy Kitchens Browns offense!"

- When they threw up the graphic about how the New England kicker had never missed at Mercedes Benz stadium, I immediately called out "Announcer Jinx! He's missing this.", and sure enough, he missed it.

- Something is wrong with Gurley. Don't know if it's mental or physical, but that's not the guy that was a borderline MVP candidate earlier in the season. Likewise, with no Gurley behind him and no Cooper Cupp, Goff looked pretty pedestrian.

- The media dog-pile on Brady at the end of the game was probably the most entertaining part of the game. Naturally, CBS had the smallest sideline reporter they could find trying two swim through that to get to Tom. NFL might want to rethink their press-pass policy.

- The commercial this year were really boring and bland. I think half of them starred robots. I guess that's the only demographic that won't get offended by anything and boycott products. (Yet anyway, #droidsunite). The Chunky Milk commercial was the best one I can remember, and I couldn't even think of which company that was for until I looked up the commercial again.

I thought it was great to see a hard fought defensive battle. I know that's not a millennials dream come true nor the NFL's vision of the 21st century NFL, but there's two sides of the ball for a reason.

It was a great change of pace for a Super Bowl and one more people should have paid attention to. Not all that glitters is gold.

Chunky milk was for Mint Mobile. They are one of the best low price mobile voice/data services available.

I use it for my cell phone and my tablet. I am signing my mom up as soon as I get her a new phone that will work. Her bill will be $15/month. She doesn't use data, but she'll still get 3 GB data on that plan.

i think you would be in the very small minority. I can guarantee this was horrifying to the NFL, they've done everything they can to make this an offensive, high scoring league. This was not what they wanted to see. For me, if i'm going to watch a game that isnt us, I want to see offense. You have Tom brady, edelman, and gronk noone cares who's on the other side of the ball and most probably couldn't even tell you. I can get some liking defense i guess, different strokes i guess
