NFL (17/18) Super Bowl LII: New England Patriots vs Philadelphia Eagles

[Exe Gesis]

Shouldn't that be a dog head

Close enough sheesh

Speaking of construction....how about this....

Supporting the Eagles keeps you fit The Zumba of the NFL.

If only this were true

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Maybe but I don't think so. Thought maybe the eagles success. But something that drives people away usually has to involve behind the scenes flare ups imo. Like when I had a meltdown with Chief etc.

go on...

Years before the EA, we had a similar thing. Posting what Simpsons characters other posters would be. And years before that even, what type of keyboard warriors, or something. Very old threads. I thoroughly enjoyed them but there are always people who get rubbed the wrong way. Either spat in public or tell me off in PM and never return. Or just not return. Sometimes people have drunken rants seeking attention. Or even start a thread directly about themselves or against another poster, more attention wanted.

I love it all. Smart football talk done respectfully, as well as cbalanced out with crazy s**t that happens. Life would be dull otherwise.

Simpsons was after encouragement award I'm pretty sure.

And then papam8 got upset because it was socially unacceptable by his white knight standards

I'm gonna go.....first OLman to win the SB MVP. Lane Johnson.

Sorry but it needs to be said every year. THE best ever.

Post this on the Patriots subreddit or the Patriots thread on this board... WW3 would start

Manning is obviously the best QB ever. No one player in the history of the NFL did more for their team than Manning did.


If there was a draft today out of every player ever. Manning would be taken first. It's obvious.

The most you can do for your team is win them a SB.

So using your own reasoning Brady is the best QB ever.

Well done!

Do such stats even matter anymore when you're going against Brady and Belichick (and officials)? They seem to defy everything.

I'm calling it - this loss will mark the start of the end of the Brady/Belichick era & on reflection it wont look like that big a call - 40yo qb finally begins to reach his use-by, Belichick starts to look to take on another challenge as the big 7 0 looms in the not too distant future. All things come to an end.

As long as he wears the dog mask on the dais.

Brady never won his team a Super Bowl.

No QB has ever

Of course he did. In order to win a SB you need to score more points than the opposition. The scoring of points is directly linked to the QB in this sport.

Absolutely not.

You can have a great defence play great defence and still get beaten because the opposing QB just makes plays that give the defence no chance despite their high level of play.

The Jags defence wasn't bad, in fact they were very good, Brady just put a lot of balls in places where it made it hard for the defenders to defend.

When in the last 3 SB wins for Brady was the Pats D rated the best D of the two teams?

[Bostonian]

Yes your sad attempts to push Manning as the best QB ever are cringe worthy.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

2/3 times. Except for the Seattle one. Pats D was better than Atlanta's and Philadelphia's in those 2 wins.

Against Seattle the Pats D gave up 0 points in the last 20 minutes of the game. That's just as important as Brady putting together two TD drives. Not to mention that the Seattle D was wrecked by injuries. The Pats D made the biggest play of the game to win it.



Put Brady on the Packers last season in the NFCCG. Would he make that comeback from down 24 to win like he did from down 25 to win the Super Bowl? Obviously not. The Packers D gave up 20 points from that point onwards. The Patriots D gave up 0.

Rodgers still put up 21 points in the Falcons home stadium. His effort in the 2nd half of that game was just as good as Brady's in the Super Bowl comeback yet it won't get remembered because his team and defense is s**t compared to Brady's

I guess ST didn't like Rowe getting traded but seriously he's the least of your worries

That's not how it was analysed and reported. Every time the Pats D was viewed as not being as good as the oppositions. People were hyping up Atlanta's D well over the Pats.

Against Seattle the Pats D gave up 0 points in the last 20 minutes of the game. That's just as important as Brady putting together two TD drives. Not to mention that the Seattle D was wrecked by injuries. The Pats D made the biggest play of the game to win it.

Who was the MVP for the game?

Comparing non SB games to SB doesn't work. There's pressure, and then there is SB pressure.

Brady made his comeback in the biggest and most pressure filled game of all.

Who would have thought we'd be discussing communism, social welfare and construction in a SB thread. Go bf. You forgot neo capitalism aka corporate welfare tho. Pretty sure the neo capitalist tax cheating patriots would have been brought up by now
