Game Thread 2018 Super Bowl!

[Chris Craig]

NBC was a bit biased. Fuck them!

More than a bit. They were sucking the patriots dick the whole game. "That wasn't a touchdown" "He wasn't a runner" whaaa whaaa whaaa...."Why are the Eagles going for it on 4th down"

Awesome game, one of the best Super Bowls. There have been some great ones lately after a history of lots of blowouts.

Weird reading through the thread and seeing people complaining about the announcers having a New England bias. Brady was legitimately amazing (for any age, but when you consider he's 40...). It would have been bizarre for them not to praise him. They spent plenty of time praising Foles and Pederson. For me, Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth is the best football announcing team. I'm glad NBC had the Super Bowl.

It was strange, though, listening to Collinsworth argue that that last touchdown wasn't a catch. He seems to think any dive that happens soon after a catch is "part of the process" which is weird. It was obvious that the receiver caught the ball, took two steps and then intentionally lunged forward to try to get into the end zone. He wasn't diving or falling in order to make the catch.

Anyway, amazing game. Loved every minute of it. Philadelphia's defense almost cost the Eagles a title on Nick Foles' greatest night of football (considering both performance and stakes) and then redeemed themselves at the end.

A bit?

Great game....one of the best SBs I have never seen.

Spoiler... it was just a Tide ad.

National media only knows about the patriots. lmfao so glad they lost. It'll be bearable.

Except Colin cowherd. He'll be silent for 4 hours as he can never talk bad about Tom Brady. Which is good, cause Colin is insufferable.

He said it would be a blowout. LOL

Only quality sport left. I know I like the right sport.

Amen, brother.

Cowboys fans NEVER root for the Eagles!! Ever! FUCK philadelphia!!!!!!

When they're playing the Patriots we do!

 

[ripcityboy]

Would love to see Bill Simmons about now.

If they call a fumble a fumble, if Seattle hands off and if Atlanta doesn't have the biggest 2nd half meltdown of all time, the Patriots aren't looking so good. Finally a team didn't give away the SuperBowl.

Love it that a backup QB beat the Pats.....out-freakin-standing!!!

You can say what if for every game ever played... what’s your point. Brady still has 5 rings and has played in 8 Super Bowls out of 17 years ~ 47% of his career. He will get over this loss and his life will always be better than yours. Haters gonna hate and ain’ters gonna ain’t.

Philly is about to burn down with these riots and celebrations.

Went to school there for a few yrs. That town is mad. Miss that place like crazy.

Well, well, here comes little Johnny Lash-Out!

Does this make it awkward for Wentz and Foles? Does Foles remain the backup next year? He is a superbowl winning quarterback now, and SB MVP.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Love it. Like a baller of Brady’s stature needs defense.

 

[illmatic99]

If the Blazers ever win a 'chip, this will be me. Damn near brokedown after dames 0.9 shot. Can't imagine what a title will be like.

No. Foles knows he ain’t not Wentz. He might seek a job elsewhere, if he can get the paper to match, but he’ll otherwise go back to backup.

Don't worry about it. He's probably been a Pats' fan since Tuesday and thinks John Hannah is a state senator.

So amusing. I said nothing about Brady but you have to make it personal about me? I'm flattered. Hopefully you feel better tomorrow.

But you were rooting for the patriots too

 

[SlyPokerDog]

That best part is you know Patriot fans are going to have these fucking crazy ref/league conspiracy theories.

"The refs totally fucked us!"

"Rigged! Payback for deflategate!"

"Even the announcers said they weren't touchdowns!"

"Park the car in Harvard yard."

I've been a Jets fan since I was 16!

That and the fact Brady got bested by a backup quarterback in the SB

Let’s be honest here. Beyond th backup QB, I’d rather have the rest of the Eagles’ roster over the Pats’ roster. Brady was better than Foles.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Impressed by some of the great catches by the WRs and the great runs after being hit by the RBs on both teams.

The pro-Pats bias was annoying. There were several calls went again Philly that definitely looked like ref botches that they refused to show replays of.

Not much different than the butthurt Seahawks fans rooting about the Pats two weeks ago.

Let’s keep it real, FAMS.

Losing fans are always butthurt.

And, oftentimes, winning fans are butthurt.

Go check out a little forum I like to call, “Rip City Poo”.

The funny thing to me is that the Super Bowl was won by a team that was 90% put together by Chip Kelly.
