NFL-ERA OT | SUPER BOWL 53 | THE SALT IS BOUND TO FLOW
- Thread starter Fantomex
- Start date
Defensively impressive
Offensively anemic
Sure a 3-3 game going into the 4th quarter is impressive but on the biggest stage it's a bore fest for the casual fan to most hardcore. Congrats to the Patriots, you are a #blessed franchise. We'll probably never see a duo like Belichick and Brady again.

This is why Saints-Pats would have been an amusing bloodbath, two of the top three worst/most rabid fanbases in the NFL at each other's throat arguing over who are the worst cheats/more dirty(individually, it's Gronk 100%). It would have been amazing until one eventually had to win because fuck both, let the SB end in a tie no one wins.
For the record, if the Pats had lost off that kind of no call there would have been even more controversy about it, potentially an actual reversal of the game's result. Instead they get to go to the SB off a phantom roughing the passer, getting the lucky coin toss their way and shit OT rules. Them making fun of the Saints fans is just the definition of shitting on someone off the high horse you were helped up onto.
Holy shit my Facebook feed is unbearable right now. Also none of my Brady loving friends credit Belichick. C'mon
I feel like shit this morning, and I didn't drink last night. Could have something to do with waking up at 3 am cleaning my house all day, I do this to take my mind off the game, being stressed throughout the game, does anyone else get stressed about the game? Then staying up to midnight watching interviews and stuff. Then I got up at like 5 this morning.
Of course it feel good. The Boston area hasn't won a title since last Oct. The long waits are excruciating and I don't wish it upon anyone else.
No one likes him. Patriot fans especially don't like him.
Now THAT was a great defensive performance and there were tons of big plays. Blowouts are more entertaining than yesterday
Why he kept their head coach and qb in the league after they cheated twice and kept their championships official
Oh, now we're at the phase where people are trying to legit defend that first half where, no matter how impressive the D might have been, legit had a several moments where Brady looked like he was trying to throw the game, or Goff being Goff
I totally get praising the defense, but in no way was that game a good one all around

Don't forget the combine in 3 weeks!
And we get plenty of AB drama between now and then for sure
Brady is so shit. The longer his career goes on the more I wonder if he'd have a single ring without Belichick. Dude is truly the greatest coach of all time, unbelievable defensive effort by the Pats throughout the playoffs.
I hope Flores isn't trash in Miami but my gut tells me he won't amount to much without Bill, just like most of the other apples from the BB tree.

Seriously all these posts about Brady and everyone is completely discrediting Belichick. They'll never be another Bill Belichick. He has proven his system works without Brady but they are at their highest potential with him.
Yeah, I can't agree. Blowouts are not more entertaining than a game that is extremely close the entire time because of killer defense.
Why had they only scored 3 points up to that point in the game?
The Falcons collapsed and the Pats offensive system is incredibly well designed. Edelman is open every play, the o-line is always good, they somehow generate a running attack no matter who the RBs are, etc. Brady isn't asked to do anything difficult.
Yes it feels great every time and the hate is actually increasing my enjoyment.
Nah Brady/Pats haters are the worst.
The Browns have the 13th best odds of winning the Super Bowl next year, and I'm somehow disappointed that number isn't better
I just thought he was basically out of the league so he wouldn't get a ring
I'm not questioning the things he did during the season

I can't believe they won 6 in less than 20 years and 5 in the last 12? or even less.
And my Steelers are now tied for first.
I totally expect this to continue. I mean seriously, they just keep winning. Their division puts them into the playoffs every year. As long as they get a first round bye you should just expect a championship at this point.
The divisions need fixed.

The craziest thing about that game is it was a defensive gameplan I could've came up with. If you asked me how to stop the Rams, I would've said sell out to stop the run and change coverages right before the snap so McVay can't talk to Goff. Make Goff read the field and beat you. But I would expect a counterpunch where McVay would do something to change it up, and then the real chess match begins. But Belichick didn't have to change at all. This was like the 4th quarter of the Falcons SB-tier playcalling, except for an entire game
I was waiting for Goff to make that throw all game. Every game he consistently gets pressured, he eventually makes one of these floater prayer balls that are begging to be picked off
Speak for yourself
Everyone always says this shit but where is the rest of the league? Where were the Chargers, Chiefs, and Rams? The Pats would have close to the same record no matter what division they played in.
I don't agree.
The dolphins bills and jets have been an integral part in this.
You can't look past the road to getting a bye being easier for the patriots.
Yeah honestly if Pats didn't win, you would see a bunch of praise of defense and "ol school smash-mouth football". The game was boring, but it wasn't the most boring thing we've ever seen. In fact it was surprising seeing a stalemate between them for much of the game. Pats definitely left a TD/FG on the field tho, the score doesn't reflect the performance. Wasn't a blowout but almost a shutout cuz that Pat D was incredible and so was the Rams.
Starting to believe the rumors about cooks not showing up when it counts tho. He was out last year early against the eagles in a shootout game. Now he comes up with dropped balls when he had a chance to tie the game.
Congrats to Pats, KC coming for you us next year.
How can 3 teams in the same division be so laughably bad for over a decade in a league that promotes parity?
Aren't the Steelers in the same division as the bungles and the browns? And a Raven that hasn't been shit since 7 years ago?
You have watched the AFC South. Don't act like you don't know.
