    I'm definitely losing hope that this might be in someway close.

    Too easy, surely that's it now.

    Butler can cover Antonio Brown but not Gabriel.

    Did you know Antonio Gates played college basketball?

    well, there's one team playing the beautiful offense we have become used to in the past few months.

    Just too good. Great execution of the play calls.

    That's it then.

    Browns fans must be sick as dogs watching Taylor Gabriel on this drive.

    I think that might just be the dagger.

    This isn't what people expected.

    Matt Ryan: 12/14, 193 yards, 2 TDs.

    Plus 94 yards and a TD on 14 carries for Freeman/Coleman.

    This is embarrassing. Being absolutely schooled on the biggest stage. Outplayed, outcoached... out-everythinged.

    Really good voice, which was particularly on show for a million reasons. Energetic show, really put a performance in. Catchy songs.

    OK.. Good voice but her songs are far from catchy, I think they're dreadful.

    still with the short plays . Im very surprised


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Oh come on. What is up with that play call!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,798 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    I can never really understand the total flabbergastment which tends to be seen when Super Bowls don't go according to pre-game predictions and favourites - after all, no team gets to the Super Bowl without being absolutely stellar during the rest of the season (with the rare exception of just having exceptionally good luck) so to me, it's always seemed silly to suggest one qualifying team automatically being better than the other as a foregone conclusion.

    (Will obviously concede that the extent of this upset is a bit of a shocker, I expected this game to be a nail biter one way or another and it's turned out to be anything but)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,308 ✭✭✭Pyjamarama


    This D is too quick for trick plays like that. Great recovery speed.

    I'm looking forward to see what Shanahan can do at SF next year. Apparently they have a lot of cap space to spend.

    With a commentator as Gm... prob not a lot. There is zero talent on that roster.

    I'm sure a few people expected this and may well be laughing all the way to the bank

    Unfortunately I'm not one of them

    Hopefully Pats might be able to pull back some pride here

    Christ you know it isn't a good night when Brady is our top rusher.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Finally.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Oh ffs.

    Onside kick?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    When it's not your night...

    Anyone surprised they didn't go for two there? It would have made it 17 points..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,240 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Clung!!! No good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,340 ✭✭✭MayoSalmon


    Complete bottle job by New England...Falcons haven't even had to do much to beat them. New England have bottled it for them!

    Atlanta will score anyway so they might as well have tried that.
