NFL (15/16) Super Bowl 50: Denver Broncos vs Carolina Panthers

[WhyAlwaysMe]

Making today about you even when its not, living up to blacky's wise words WAM, well done.

I won a lot of money of Viva La Vida first HT song

 

[Blacky]

what's your point?

How was that not more boring

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Havent seen a moment of the game yet, but......

A. F. C.

A. F. C.

A. F. C.

I knew you'd come around!!!

Hope you're enjoying this GG.exe

Disappointing that the highlight of my day was the fans in he stadium booing Brady at SB MVP intro pre game. How good was that?

The only thing that would have made it better for me would be if Brady gave the crowd these ones:

I want to remind you, Broncos fans, and in particular, Las Vegas Raider fans (GG.exe , manureid) that:

If we win it all this year, as well as win the division, we will have locked up the greatest team in AFC West

- equal most SB wins
- most SB appearances
- equal most division titles
- most all-time wins
- highest all-time win percentage
- least all-time losses

and will only be 1-2 playoff wins under the Raiders

We would have dominated the San City Raiders scum

The Broncos now rule the West baby!!!

 

[Blacky]

To be fair KC and especially Charges are laughable

I don't get this crap about most boring super bowl in years. Who cares how you win them?
No one is ever going to give a crap about how the game unfolded in 10 years time. The record books say three championships and that's all that counts.

Yeah, when a team is driving for the win with 3 mins left, I don't call it boring. The only people who consider today a boring game are casuals who want to see lots of passing and lots of TDs. They don't understand the game, were expecting a blowout, and can't feel the tension in a defensive battle. Today was brilliant. Defenses causing havoc - last man standing stuff.

Understand what you're saying but it wasn't really like that on draft day. Carolina needed a QB and we needed defense. Actually I had a look back at the 2011 draft grades this week and the incredible thing is there was a lot of criticism for both picks at the time. Many said Newton was no Blaine Gabbert, and Von Miller was not as good as Marcell Dareus and/or Patrick Peterson. Both players took about five minutes to prove everyone wrong.

Many would say he is still not

Look mate, if we're going since I was born, Broncos have 3 vs. Raiders 0, you're just digging an even bigger hole here, I'm at least giving you the 60/70/80s!!

Even I was saying to my mate that this was the closest to the Freo/Hawf GF for an American football game can get. Starburns_ and another poster said the same a lot earlier in the thread.

[Mile High Tiger]

Some goose called Shane McGinness was reporting on SEN from the game. Said it was boring until the 4th quarter until Peyton Manning finally fired up and led his team to victory. And this guy got to take up a seat in the stadium

 

[Galactic]

Just to clarify if we are going off my comment, the game itself wasn't "boring" It was a defensive battle and a good one. The rest of the game from entertainment to crowd was awful and boring to me personally.

 

[quotemokc]

The crowd seemed quite dull, but that seemed to be more of a broadcasting issues imo

He probably asked someone when Jarryd Hayne was getting a run

To be fair we have been waiting all season

Don't ask me...

A close game isn't necessarily a good game though, this game was error-riddled, and you can't put it all down to the brilliant defense from the Broncos. It was very scrappy at times, but not in a good way.

That's where the Freo/Hawthorn GF comparison is apt, that game was decided by 14 points and was reasonably close all day, but it was a horrific spectacle. A close game in many cases is a good game and will keep you watching until the end, but it's not a given. This was not a good game, the AFC Championship game on the other hand...

Lulz, that junktime 2-point conversion really won the game.

John Elway winning the Super Bowl in '98: 12-of-22, 123 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT

Peyton Manning winning today: 13-of-23, 141 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT

It's the bronco way.... Can win with a sucky QB performance.

Can also get comprehensively flogged with one too

I normally enjoy those comprehensive floggings but they can have this one.

The guy is a real try hard wannabe.

Yeah CBS seemed to have audio problems right through, think some were complaining they could hear producer counting down in background. Also had problems with some of their replays...what a hack network.
