It was one for the ages regardless of you who wanted to win!

Never ever count out Brady! He's this generation's Joe Montana!!!!!!

Atlanta had the most colossal choke in sports history. Up 25 points with a quarter and a half to go against Belichick and the Patriots and the Falcons blew it!!!!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Rigged Superbore, it's like you could see the Patriots winning when it didn't look like there was even a slight chance.

That was an NFL media gold mine.

Loved it in fact it was on NFL Network last night compressed and I watched it again, NOPE no rig there, ATL melted and you can see it after that Sack of Ryan and then the NE steamroller kicked it high gear, good to watch again, and Brady's amongst the best ever, but I'll never say there's a "best" due to an era thing with me. GOOD game overall, especially watching all the Bronco fans I was with melt at the end LOL

The biggest issue I saw with Atlanta was the same issue I saw with Wyoming under Christensen. It's all well and good that you can score quickly, but their defense was absolutely gassed by the fourth quarter because they were on the field twice as long as the offense.

Bingo! That was the reason Atlanta lost.

The reason they lost was because after Julio made that great catch along the sideline they had 1st and 10 fro mthe twenty wit h4 minutes left, they then chose to try to throw the ball instead of running the ball three times and force NE to take timeouts or run the clock down. Worst case, clock is down a lot more than it ended up being and you have a chipshot FG attempt to go up 11. But instead they have a sack and holding call and are knocked out of FG range.

I think there were a lot of moments like that, though. What about the stripped ball on their own 20? Obviously blitzi situation, yet Ryan drops back and gets blindsided as there's a missed block. If they run the ball and punt instead it's a likely additional 3-4 minutes off the clock - both because of clock running off before the punt, and because Pats have to go an additional 40-60 yards before they score.

They were done halfway through the 3rd quarter.. that defense was done then. The 4th quarter was just a flat out steam roll. Atlanta's DL wasn't even firing off the ball at that point.

They were still given a TD when he was clearly down. There is always controversy surrounding the Patriots because they always get away with random poop.

I wouldn't call that "clearly down", at least based on the photo you provided. You can't see the point of the ball so there is no certainty whether it broke the plane or not. Based solely on that picture, I would say whatever the call on the field was, it should stand. Now if call on the field was down and they overturned, I would disagree with that.

The holding that put the falcons out of fg range had a face mask on the wr that wasn't called. At the very least, they get another play. Not to mention the 3 defensive holding calls on 3rd downs on the drive that started the comeback. 2 were questionable at best. I've watched Seattle play D and falcons did no more than what Seattle does on every play. Every 50/50 call went to pats like usual. They key was mr mvp decided that taking sacks at key moments was better than throwing it away.
