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

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?”
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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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...

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

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

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.
