NFL: Eagles / Patriots Superbowl

[fbj]

So, we get to find out of the NFL is legit or not.

Here's my conspiracy theory:

If the Eagles win, it's likely the Patriots were asked if not to "throw" the game, to tone it down a bit, to ensure the Eagles win. Why?

What is more entertaining than watching David beat Goliath?

A team that has never won the Superbowl, beating the unbeatable?

With the NFL ratings in the toilet, they are in desperate need of a Cinderella story

I have duty all day Sunday so I don't even plan to watch the Superbowl.

Personally I would rather see the underdog Eagles win than the corrupt Patriots.

That's because you are a gay eagles fan who like getting fucked in the butt

This stat right here shocked me about the Pats

In all 7 superbowls that Brady and Belechick appeared in together, the Pats never scored in the 1st qtr

That is surprising, but at the same time, I think a big part of what has made the Patriots great with Belichick and Brady is their ability to adjust, so it isn't shocking.

I need them mutherfuckers to jump on the eagles early and often. The eagles is not s team u want to start slow against

The refs always throw flags to march NE down the field if NE is behind. It is so blatant now it is pathetic and I've never believed in conspiracy type thingies but you watch the Jacksonville game and you're like 'come now, you think no one is watching this bullshit?' No problem with a team losing on their game play but the games with NE too often have the refs decide it.

Also, pass interference should not be a spot foul. No foul should be more than 20 yards unless it is utterly blatant like the db tackles the receiver before the ball gets close. These 50-60 yard penalties are like playing poker with someone and they call "7-card stud, 2s, 9s, and one eyed jacks are wild". It makes it a kids game.

Heck, that's about a third of the Pukers offense right there.

I am psyched for the SB. I already have my snacks menu planned out. I'm going to have a few of my die hard Patriots fans friends over. We are going to have a blast watching the Pats bury the Eaglets. Go Pats!

Let's see if the Pats can finally score in the first quarter of the SB with Brady.

QB is only as good as the O-line. Except for the Joe Montana-Russel Wilson types who can keep a play alive. Brady does not move well. Over-Rated on a team with good players at all the spots with good coach.
Again, my Grandma can drop back and chuck 25 yd curl routes and screen passss with no heat.

If the Pats win can we go out and celebrate over dinner?

Doesn't matter if they do or don't. They are the come back kids. Besides that, the only thing that really matters in the end is the W!

Oh? Some kind of fantasy football game?

That's good. Keeps the imagination exercised.

The Patriots have the BEST fans. The Eagles have the worst fans. We win on that count too.

Even if the Pats didn't pull off another super bowl win this time, it is still pretty amazing that they made it there . . . again! They are a phenomenal team. I am very lucky to have them as MY team.

Brady has done a lot of great things, but the one thing he hasn't done is been involved in a dominating Super Bowl win.

More excuse-making days before the game. Rats off a sinking ship. Oh sorry -- Pats off a sinking ship.

I wish I knew how to make gifs. I'd take that gif of the eagle attacking Rump, replace Rump's face with Bobby Brady in uniform and the food would become the SB trophy.

The Cinderella story ended when the Vikings turned into a pumpkin. Now you have a choice to root for Filthydelphia, whose fans booed Santa Claus and are generally considered to be scum of the earth, or the Cheatriots in their millionth SB.

The Beagle vs the Gaytriots zzzzzzzzz

The Eagles and their fans are all filth.

Never thought I'd say this, but go Pats!

If Foles plays the way he did yesterday, the Pats are going home unhappy.

The Pats D won’t choke like the Vikings’ did

They didn't choke, they were just outplayed.

Outplayed? They were sacrificial lambs being led to slaughter. It wasn’t a game, because after the 7-0 lead, the Vikings went home. Disappointing game to say the least.

What the Pats have done is nothing less than amazing in the world of NFL parity.

8 Super Bowls in 16 seasons, it is crazy. All that said I want the Eagles to kick some Pats ass and take home the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
