The Pats’ offense was stalled for most of the second half. Yet they ended up with 37 points. Crazy.
*slow clap*Can someone tell me what number Super Bowl this is???
HMMMMM?
Still trying to figure out what bts is. Behind the scenes? A typo for bto or bsb?No sleep in 22 hours but I am as high as a teenage girl at a BTS concert.
I like the cut of your jib.You know who gets a game ball? The whole fucking team.
You are right - the O line was pretty great tonight and gave Brady enough time to do work. And the defense shut down Hill and Kelce too so credit to them. The gameplan was pretty brilliant save for the throw at the goal-line but that didn't end up mattering so we shall not discuss it. That Trent Brown deal turned out pretty well it seems.Um offensive line?
Also, about as good as it gets playing that offense in Arrowhead where they have to remain aggressive.
Hill and Kelce had FOUR catches. Like holy shit
I thought about this when the NO guy had no clue an easy ball was coming to the LA guy on the overtime INT. NO seemed to melt down a little bit in terms of focus and that is on the coach.And Belichick. He was as close to going on Tilt about officiating calls as I’ve ever seen him, but he had his little tantrum and then he just got the fuck back to work.
Compare to Sean Peyton who couldn’t let it go. (Though admittedly that was a huge play but still there was so much football left there.)
Hear! hear! And thank Christ.Abstract Game Ball to the Miami Miracle play for dying in terms of historical relevance
Go to 98.5 on TuneIn they are playing them coming back from postgame show breaks.Anyone with link to the Pats radio calls?
That'll work for now.Go to 98.5 on TuneIn they are playing them coming back from postgame show breaks.
Night and day from that travesty Googs trotted out against Denver on 2015.Also, Scar is a clear Hall of Famer. No way he can’t be in it.
He’s a stud.What do we do with Trent Brown? Franchise and trade him? Extend him? That will be particularly fascinating.
BTS is a k-pop (Korean pop) band.Still trying to figure out what bts is. Behind the scenes? A typo for bto or bsb?
I’m probably old now....
Anytime any non-Pats fan questions Brady as a player or his toughness, I tell them to watch that game. He got absolutely teed off on all day and led them to a 2 pt conversion attempt to tie the game on the road against a great team. At the end of it all, people will celebrate all these comebacks and game winning drives (as they should) but that game is the essence of him as a player, even in a loss. He was a tough motherfucker that game, and the Broncos players after said as much.Night and day from that travesty Googs trotted out against Denver on 2015.
Still Tom’s most courageous performance physically speaking, as far as I’m concerned. Not sure how he survived that beating.
Some day there will be a book detailing everything he played through. 104 temp on road against 15-1 Pitt team (lit them up), separated shoulder, broken foot in SB, knee this year, and God knows what else. He’s as tough as they come and nobody even knows it.Anytime any non-Pats questions Brady as a player or his toughness, I tell them to watch that game.

With post-game talk that Edelman should seriously be considered for the HOF, how about Dante as well? I don't believe any coordinator (only) has ever been elected but he should beDante...the O-line has been brilliant in the postseason.

McDaniels would have been my #1 goat had they not pulled this one out for this reason. First, the dumb fucking goal line interception play on the Pats second drive, where they mysteriously shift from manhandling the Chiefs to trying to get cute. Then the "playing not to lose" offense that McDaniels used for the whole 2nd half until the Chiefs took the lead.The Pats’ offense was stalled for most of the second half.

They did throw twice to CP and he dropped both passes. One was right in his hands, the other required him to stretch out a little but he should have had both.McDaniels would have been my #1 goat had they not pulled this one out for this reason.

The only thing I can think of to justify McDaniels' ultraconservative 2nd half offense is that maybe Brady really is playing through something and a key focus of the Pats offense is not letting him stand back there and take hits any more than is absolutely necessary.
The other thing I don't get about the Pats offense that is on McDaniels is only 2 touches for Cordarrelle Patterson during regulation. KC is loaded with offensive players who have gamebreaking speed, the Pats have just one, CP, and they basically made no effort at all to get him the ball. He made big plays both times he touched the ball (15 yard "rush" on the little toss pass and then caught a screen and turned a sure 5 yard loss into a 3 yard gain).
No question in this one, for me, that Brady saved McDaniels from having to wear the goat horns.
Brady is the clear game ball winner today. After him, Gronk, Edelman, and the line on offense and Brian Flores along with pretty much the whole defense. Can we trade McDaniels and a pick to Miami to keep Flores?
Both in overtime, both on sort of typical short passes to WR. Using him more as a big target than as a gamebreaker. Meanwhile, Chiefs stacked the line against the run for most of the second half and the Pats obliged them by repeatedly running into it for short gains, ignoring any effort at misdirection.They did throw twice to CP and he dropped both passes. One was right in his hands, the other required him to stretch out a little but he should have had both.
This reads exactly like a WEEI hotsportstake. 37 points on the road, over 500 yards of offense, and Brady actually threw the INT, not Josh. The play action was working well, it was a perfectly reasonable call and kudos to the Rams for dropping a linebacker in coverage on that play, ballsy call considering how well the Pats were running it.McDaniels would have been my #1 goat had they not pulled this one out for this reason.

The bolded is fair. Still disagree on the play call. That seems like a play where either the defense is fooled and easy touchdown, or the defense isn't fooled and you are leaving the GOAT QB with just one (covered) option.This reads exactly like a WEEI hotsportstake. 37 points on the road, over 500 yards of offense, and Brady actually threw the INT, not Josh.
