Seahawks need to learn how to user the MLB
Actually Cleveland is the best thing to happen to him.
He probably accidentally drove around the city and saw all those drunk bums and hobos and realized he had to stop drinking all together or he had a chance to become like them.

Let's talk some more about Gronk.
I may be an Eagles fan but Gronk is awesome. Happy to see him get a ring. Also Brady controlled that game, I remember seeing a lot of people saying that the dink and dunk wouldn't work because manning tried it last year and it didn't. I said Brady isn't manning and the dink and dunk is what the whole patriot passing game is built around and it showed last night.

I had weirdest dreams last night. I was sitting on the hood of my car in the Wawa parking lot cradling a six pack and feeling salty about the game when Tom Brady walks out. I mutter out a real begrudging sounding "Congrats man, you earned it." He looks me up and down in my Ravens shirt and hat with open disdain and gives me a real curt "Yeah, thanks." He turns around to a car pulling and it's Troy Brown and Tom gets all excited and he's like " Troy, man, let's go get sno-cones!" and Troy's shaking his head like nah. Tom gets in the car going "Dude c'mon you never want to get sno-cones, Jesus..." as the car pulls off.
So I guess congrats Pats, fuck the Pats, and Pats-Gaf should go get sno-cones today because it's what drunk dream Brady would want.

I picked the Pats to win 28-24 in the pickem league. I should have bet money ;(

He did what he needed to do, I never said otherwise. Thankfully for him that happened to be nothing too difficult.
I honestly didn't think this would be such a controversial topic.
Ultimately the win is what matters but Brady only played one part in it and I didn't think his part was all that impressive. That's all I'm saying.
Just set the Will and Mike to QB Spy, duh.
Brady's performance was decent in terms of numbers but it was not good by any stretch. That first INT could have been a game killer if they scored off of it. It was also really ugly. I was not as concerned with the second INT but that first one was beyond horrible. Brady also had a handful of misthrows on open receivers that should have been made. Brady did have zero run support so Seattle knew what was coming and he was able to still execute somewhat. Stat wise he ends up putting up history making numbers but it is mostly because there are not many lights out qb performances in super bowls.

Brady looks bad too
You're welcome to your opinion, I just don't agree with it
.And dinking and dunking work against Seattle's defense. They did not tackle well and having longer routes clearing space for the underneath stuff worked almost all game.
Busy watching the Ray Rice tape alone in his hotel room.

What are your thoughts on Revis winning a Superbowl

cleveland breaks everyone
Also the bucs need some compensation for giving the patriots part of their superbowl winning team
Seattle line crushed that Broncos O-line all last year. It was absolute domination. Shame PeyPey's regular season game against them this year couldn't be his SB one. He always did play conservative as shit in big games and didn't try to make risky throws he usually makes any other day.
Here we must credit Tammy, the gameplan, the wide open WRs/RBs, and the O-line.
I thought he played really well outside of a few plays that could gave really fucked them over. But he got a lot of help and came through for his team. I was so ready to call him a choker after the second INT, but after the two scoring drives I could not (even if they lost).
If Seattle used their brains and milked the clock, forced a timeout of NE and daggered the game with Marshawn--then I still wouldn't have anything to say about Tammy. He did all his team needed him to do. Killed Seattle on 3rd and longs. McDaniels called a near perfect game as well.
Came up big in the 4th Q, showed some good pocket movement, vintage stuff. Came up big when they needed it, didn't feel he had a strong game before that though. Two brutal Ints, and when Bennett was going early in the 3rd it looked like Tom was going to crawl into a hole, but he came back strong.

Which one of the TD passes was difficult, for example? The three to wide open receivers matched up against a garbage backup slot corner? The lob to a massive catching machine TE who burned a LB in single coverage?
Callin' it like I see it.

Of course, you'd look shitty too if you
were old enough to have
Thought it was bizarre how the d-line kept just gliding past him instead of attacking him on his 5 steps.

If it's all so easy, why isn't every QB in the league doing it?
Hey man, I'm not saying he played perfectly. The pick to Lane was horrific, in that situation, you take the sack instead of throwing it in the middle of the field like that. I just think you're being pretty hard on him, even with all the caveats of the situation.
They might have won but they will always be cheaters and this is just another * as far as I am concerned.
Worst day ever.
You and Tabris will always have *.
Worst day ever.
Congrats
Yesterday was a great day for all of us, we are ALL Patriots.

Belichick is a hell of a coach. Amazing at using what he's got and exploiting weaknesses. McDbag is a great o-coordinator. Edelman has elite quickness, Vereen is a great pass receiving RB, Gronk is always a mismatch. Pats o-line is always great and the few times they haven't been Brady sucks balls. Also, key injuries to the Seahawks.

Katy Perry could really get it though
Oh now we can blame losses on injuries, but when the Pats lose in the Super Bowl with a gimp Gronk, the counter argument always is "everybody has injuries".
It's really cool how you are so desperately trying to take away every aspect of the win from Brady.

Because NFL coaches are fucking morons, Bill Belichick isn't.
He did prove that he is clutch and will go down as probably the best in pressure situations even though a fair number of those situations have been due to poor individual play.

Brady was so clutch on that last INT. I said "wow."

Was he also clutch on the two TD drives in the last 7 minutes?
Maybe he should play defense too, so he can get some credit when they win.

Way to ignore my other post.
He was pretty good on those last two drives. Very efficient at hitting those open short routes.
