    What a game, I was going to turn it off and put on a movie. Wife said no she wanted to watch Brady get beat....

    I know what Bill told the team at the half. "These chumps lost to the Chargers"

    And the dirty birds pulled a Charger stunt and lost at the end.

    Too early to call this a blowout
    Hmmmm. I wonder how the Xman feels about now...
    I must apologize for these posts. As soon as I posted them, Joe Buck pointed out that Matt Ryan had a perfect passer rating, and from that moment the Pats roared back.

    Sorry guys...

    I'm only go to say this once, I have never in my life seen a team blow a game as bad as this. They kept the patriots out of the end zone for almost 3 quarters, a feat in and of itself. Racked up 28 points themselves, only to blow that huge lead in a tad over one quarter. It was like the gas tank was empty all of a sudden. WTF ??

    That forced fumble on Ryan was the turning point, it juiced up the Patriots and they turned it on while Atlanta sat back and practically conceded the game. I thought I was watching an old boxing match where one guy pounds the other for 9 rounds and in the tenth round just puts his gloves down.

    While you definitely have to give the Patriots the credit due for never giving up and winning the game in OT, one could argue if the game was the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history or the biggest choke.

    It was bad enough when the Falcons were up by 16 points and turned the ball over allowing New England to get within 8... but it is almost unfathomable to be passing the ball in the red zone with just under 5 minutes to go when you are on the 20 yard line ready to seal the game with a field goal.

    Whoever made the decision to pass in the red zone and give the Patriots the only real chance they had to win really blew it. All the Falcons had to do was to kick the chip-shot field goal and the game was basically over. They gave the Patriots the opportunity they needed and lost the game strategically. The Falcons were outcoached and Tom Brady showed us that even at 39 years old, he's still the best quarterback in the league.

    I think Ron said it but this was like Oilers-Bills back in the 90's.

    Biggest CHOKE since the NY Yankees had a 3 games to none lead in the AL playoffs and lost to the Red Sox IMO.

    Yeah, almost forgot about that Oilers/Bills game, certainly many other big chokes but this one just seemed more somehow.

    Packers are not that good of a team, even 2 years ago. It was not such a stretch to see them go down in flames.

    Agreed also, a chip shot away from sealing the game for the Falcons and they blew it. Coaching matters....

    Bears are being counted out of anything. 6-10 record is what is being guessed by most. They have the best running back in the league. Check stats for only playing ten games last year. Rookie phenome quarterback . Young defense. Weak division. Excluding fn packers. Might be a great Cinderella story? Peace. The Dabutcher loves Dabears!
