NFL: Eagles / Patriots Superbowl

[Care4all]

Wow! Just, wow! New England seems to have all the answers. Damn it!

heeheehee!

GO PATS!

The are a great team, just an amazing team.

the thing is, I was a huge Eagles fan when young and in high school....lived in south jersey and the Eagles was OUR team....it only took an hour to get to Veterans Stadium at the time...

so I could be happy with either, as winners

Another 4th down conversion. It's possible this drive could be for the game.

However this ends up, it's a good game.

The Pats still haven't had a dominant SB win under Belichick/Brady.

Nick Foles tickling a wildcat

Rob Gronkowski showing affection to a kitten

Travis Kelce shrugging at a dog

Aaron Rodgers

 

[Montrovant]

Oh, and Foles has definitely shown up his doubters this playoffs. I didn't expect him to play so well on this run.

 

[Montrovant]

That was not the same as the Jesse James non-catch. Ertz caught the ball and took a couple of steps before diving toward the end zone, whereas James never took a step, if I remember correctly.

 

[Toro]

That’s a catch

 

[Montrovant]

Brady fumble, Eagles recover! That should be the game!

 

[Papageorgio]

Never count NE out, until the clock hits 0:00

 

[basquebromance]

From Ben Franklin to Joel Embiid Nick Foles, a tradition of Philadelphia excellence.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Hahaha....f#ck you cheatriots

 

[Papageorgio]

What a great game, I could see Gronk coming down with that last play.

Really good, love it!

 

[Faun]

I admit when I’m wrong and I was wrong...

Eagles by 10

Ref's cheated the Patriots out of a win by calling that lost ball play a touchdown. .....

 

[Borillar]

Congrats Eagles. Very entertaining Super Bowl.

The ref didn't make the call, the NFL did. Ertz was ruled a runner when he crossed the plane of the end zone so once the ball crossed the plane it was a TD. He was a receiver when he caught the ball but after taking two steps, he was a runner. The Patriots were simply outplayed.

Well played game, fairly officiated, the better team won. That's how it goes. No team could afford to make a mistake and NE made theirs, while Eagles gambled twice on 4th and one, one ended in a TD, the other in a first down that lead to a TD. Ballsy football, they knew they had to play for control

I felt this Eagles team was going to win, but my heart was with Brady. He will still go down as the GOAT, and there is always next year, how they do it year in and year out if beyond me.

Eagle’s coaching staff looked like geniuses on those 4 and 1plays.

The lost ball TD was correct. He had become a runner before he dove towards the end zone.

However, you won't get me to believe the one at the back of the end zone earlier in the game was a catch. He didn't have control of the ball until after the left foot came up off the ground.

I'm torn between calling them bad play calls because of how dangerous they are, and being admiring of the guts it took to make them and being happy with a coach willing to take that sort of risk.

Not! They lost by 8 so one bad call had no effect on who won. Plus the call was good.
