[PseuFighter]

Was Bradys dad just wearing a MAGA hat? Gross.

[Marty’s Beret]

“
When Tom Brady became a free agent last March, a mere two teams aggressively pursued him: the Chargers and Buccaneers. Others made calls, but seemingly no real push.



How did Brady not draw the same level of interest across the league that Deshaun Watson has now?”

Congratulations to Tampa Bay’s coaches and especially to Tom Brady. That was a dominating performance. A well-deserved title.

kind of a shitty game but I love it

Is Schefter serious? Maybe because you are realistically looking at 2-3 v 10 plus years of play? Put TB12 on this year’s Texans and see how that goes.

Hard to tell. Red cap, caught my eye late tho looking up from my phone

 

[brandonchristensen]

And his 2019 season

 

[E5 Yaz]

The Gronk-Kelcie moment was cool

 

[wilked]

kind of a shitty game but I love it

I thought good game for 2.5 quarters

 

[mostman]

Actually thinking back to the “How many SB will Mahomes win” discussion - if the bet was “After 2021, who wins more SBs, Brady or Mahomes” I might take Brady depending on the odds.

Red Bucs hat.

 

[BornToRun]

Bucs hat?

 

[Harry Hooper]

Have to say it again, that pre-game Madden sim was on the money.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Tampa orange, dude

 

[RoDaddy]

I could pull for Brady and Tampa Bay while the Pats are rebuilding, if that what they're doing now. He's the GOAT and mostly as our QB, and that "importance" is right up there with the franchise I've loved all my life

 

[wilked]

Hard to tell. Red cap, caught my eye late tho looking up from my phone

Quite an assumption

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Is this margin of victory higher than if you add up the margins in the previous 9 Brady Super Bowls?

Edit: Just the first 6 combined.

 

[mostman]

You misspelled Manning

Ha!

 

[Marty’s Beret]

Hard to tell. Red cap, caught my eye late tho looking up from my phone

Please tell me it was a Tampa Bay hat

 

[pvg44]

Brady never completely shit the bed in a super bowl.

This is an uninformed comment at best. You can put this loss on a lot of players on KC, but not Mahomes.

 

[Ale Xander]

no, it;s a Bucs hat

 

[mikeot]

Good thing I'm not a gambler. Not only would I have thought KC was going to win easy, I'd have bet my house on them scoring at least ONE TD. Incredible.

I had a hunch TB was at least a good bet when I learned how beat up the KC OL was. I could kick myself now for not placing one.

Adam Schefter seems to be flummoxed by the concept of ageism.

 

[The Mort Report]

they're wrong, Tampa hat

I would say instead: a lot of players and Maholmes. Not a great game from him

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Mahomes just played worse in a SB than Brady ever did

putting any of this loss on Mahomes is silly.

 

[BaseballJones]

age

And his 2019 wasn’t exactly inspiring.

 

[staz]

21/29 for 201, 3 TD vs. Gronk's 6-67, 2 TD

 

[Dotrat]

I'm a lot happier than I thought I'd be. I knew I'd be happy but am feeling closer to giddy for TB--and Gronk. But this is unbelievable--7 SB wins is just extraordinary, unheard of, almost ridiculous...

 

[DeadlySplitter]

all I can say watching Tampa tonight is... how did New Orleans win the division?

 

[OurF'ingCity]

Boomer looks miserable.

 

[voidfunkt]

Super happy for Tom and Gronk. Watching history.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Mahomes took a pounding tonight and made amazing throws out of nothing. Huge respect for him

Schefter, most folks think BB knows what he is doing 100 pct of the time

 

[mostman]

Boomer looks miserable.

Nice jacket though.

 

[wilked]

Why do they need 5 people to analyze the game? Such an odd setup with the studio hosts

 

[E5 Yaz]

Took half a season or more for Tampa to gel

 

[E5 Yaz]

Why do they need 5 people to analyze the game? Such an odd setup with the studio hosts

Why did ESPN survey "108 experts" to predict a KC win

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Can we see the players celebrating instead of commercials?

 

[dhappy42]

Brady has won 33% of the Super Bowls played during his career. And 12.7% of all Super Bowls ever.

 

[Ale Xander]

I hope Mahomes soon moves to a team I dislike much less, but I doubt that's in the cards.

 

[heavyde050]

I didn’t say the loss was on him; I said he played worse in a SB than Brady ever did.

 

[wilked]

NHL does this way better

 

[Ale Xander]

Boomer looks miserable.

Tough years for the Bungles and JETS, true

 

[richgedman'sghost]

Thought he was great. Made ridiculous throws running for his life hitting his receivers in the chest and the wideouts dropping them

"Great:"? I wouldn't call Mahomes great. That is an exaggeration. Maybe not as bad as the stats show but your Jets bias is showing.

21/29 for 201, 3 TD vs. Gronk's 6-67, 2 TD

Is this a comparison of QB to TE? If so, what about blocks that sprung a run or screen?
