    Not really a fan of BBC's coverage, it's a bit flashy and over the top, I'd prefer if it was just Nat and Mike in studio in England.

    Question put to Rio Ferdinand: What have you enjoyed experiencing while you were out here?

    Rio: The experience.

    He's very knowledgeable but his inability to sound even remotely excited during big games or moments always annoys me with Buck.

    my first NFL experience was the Pats Giants Superbowl in 2007/2008. he was so deadpan for the helmet catch, i thought it was a nothing play

    I really hate NFL UK.

    So many half-celebrities and other sports people are wheeled out all the time. Whether it's retweeting an extra from the Bill on twitter or bringing an Olympic bronze medalist on to the sideline, it's smacks of desperation.

    So Tom Brady has never scored in the first quarter of a Superbowl!

    Crazy stat!

    Okay, let's take Blount out. It's not working. I want to see Lewis from now on.

    Wow massive play there from Dion Jones.

    Straight after a brilliant play from Brady.

    Yep but the pats traditionally deferr if they win the toss . Usually given the nervous nature of these games they don't open up until the 2nd 1/4

    He's had a massive rookie season, he was unlucky not to get the DROY imo

    What a great spot for the run D to sh!t the bed.

    Keep giving it up freeman, he's gashed the pats 4 or 5 tines already!

    In my opinion the falcons never flatter to deceive . Two players on there roster have played at this stage before . This is a
    Great effort so far

    Keep feeding freeman the ball. The pats D called a time out just to catch their breath.

    Belichick's certainly taking plenty of notes.

    Freeman can really play this game.

    Also somebody get Terry Bradshaw a new shirt.

    Great work from freeman. Big turnaround. We should have put points on the board but Atlanta punished is very quickly

    Pats need to come right back.

    The Falcons pace has them in real difficulty.
