    Any real chance of a comeback?

    The biggest comeback to win in a Superbowl is 10 points. This is a pasting and there's no chance. Even if Brady starts throwing bullets downfield Atlanta will just come back and score themselves.

    NE were 3 point favourites. Nobody predicted this.

    No. And because it's not the Falcons defense stopping the Pats. They're f*cking themselves over.

    Eh about that...

    I had falcons to win by 14 by or more at 8-1. Had it spent in my head.....


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


    What a bottle job by Atlanta.
    They don't run the ball on 3rd and 1.
    They are sacked out of FG range.

    Fair play to Brady and co. That game was over and they dug it out. When they won the coin toss in OT there was only one outcome.

    Never been so happy to be wrong!:pac:


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


    At one stage during the game I saw PP tweet that Atlanta were 1/16 in running. I can only imagine what they were just before they went three and out on 3rd and 1.

    You have Devonta Freeman. It's 3rd and 1. RUN THE BALL. That should get as much criticism as Pete Carroll did two years ago.

    So.. what did I miss? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,166 ✭✭✭✭Zzippy


    Went to bed at half time. Easy win for Falcons by the looks of it.

    Sickened.

    The catch by Jones on the right touch line in the 4th quarter should've been the big play that sealed the game and what everyone is talking about today, now it'll be forgotten. You'd wonder how experienced coaches manage to get play calls that seem no brainers to casual observers so wrong.

    Randomly surfing through IMDB and I found a movie coming out next year called "The Irishman". It's Directed by Scorsese, stars DeNiro, Pacino and Pesci it could be one of the best movies to come out in a long time or could be a total disappointment

    Harvey Keitel is in it too. If it was the 90s we'd all be incredibly pumped about that film. Scorsese is still well able to churn out a good movie though so fingers crossed.

    Once Atlanta's offense started to cave in there was no way the defense could bail them out. The Patriots dominated time of possession and the Atlanta defense was completely gassed by the end. I have to say I really don't like how overtime works. Both teams should get at least one chance to possess regardless. Once the Patriots won the toss it was clear they were going to score a TD.

    I still can't believe it though. 25 point lead!

    I agree. I like the way they do OT in the college game. Each team gets a shot with the ball.

    Sticking this in the off topic thread as I don't know where else to put it.

    Seriously lads, taking pot shots in RIP threads for players or coaches that have passed recently is poor form. It's happened twice in a row now but it's really unpleasant to see. Points scoring is fine but it really should be done elsewhere. I know of well known sports people that have passed in recent years and people do read these things to see what others have to say about them.

    A bit of perspective and common sense would go a long way!

    Just thought it was worth a mention.

    Can I ask what that's in connection with Venjur?

    Edit: actually it's ok, I don't want to know

    Dominican Republic newspaper printed a photo of Alec Baldwin from his SNL portrayal of Trump instead of one of Trump. Since corrected for later editions. Also on the online edition.

    There's nothing as funny as watching a woman in her 60's bouncing balls in a toy shop then putting them back. Then taking more from the shelf and bouncing them. Then getting mixed up and throwing her phone on to the ground and staring at it because it didn't bounce....then realising it was her phone!! Stuff came out of my nose because I laughed so loud. She gave me an awful dirty look.
