Official Game Day Thread- Super Bowl LI - Pats vs Falcons

[TB12TheGoat]

Hour and a half to go can time run any ****ing slower?

I don't like this stat.

Since becoming a stat, this will be the fourth Super Bowl to feature the NFL sack leader; Previous sack leaders are 3-0, all of them leading their team to their franchise's first Super Bowl victory • /r/nfl

You know, Yeats is so on-point... but he should have called it "The Fifth Coming..." and you have to accept the 31 teams' perspective to make the "best" and "worst" work here...

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Second stanza doesn't work quite as well, so leaving it out

Is the forum spectacularly slow for anyone else or is it just me?

Works pretty slow which is surprising because overall it handled the AFCCG well.

NFL Football Stats - NFL Team Opponent Red Zone Scoring Percentage (TD only) on TeamRankings.com

Pats are 7th in red zone defense (TDs only).

Atlanta is dead last in red zone defense. (and 24th when you count just the last 3 games for all 32 NFL teams)

Everytime I try to reply or make a new post....it takes over a minute to post. Very slow goings.

That's definitely an advantage to Atlanta. Darn it!!!

Record for brady in domes?

 

[SomePatsFan13]

Expected. Roger has to pull out all of the stops

No disrespect, but no need to go conspiracy theory: it was raining earlier. I'd assumed they wanted it to be open for the fighters to fly over but I guess not.

 

[Foxypats]

Damn, I was hoping the roof would stay open, now Atlanta will feel like they are at home.

 

[AtomicDawg]

What athletes. And if things go wrong you know they have this in the arsenal.

Relax.

The roof is closed
Brady dome: 67.4%, 8.64 YPA, 6.9 TD%, 2.62% INT, 106.42 rate
Brady OS : 63.15%, 7.35 YPA, 5.39% TD 1.93% INT, 95.28 rate

Just showed a shot of Brady in the locker room, Michael Floyd's locker was in the background, look like he is going to be active.

 

[pctronics0072]

Inactives are already out. Floyd is inactive.

I'm the only one who thinks Yeats is right on-target? I mean it took 100 years but this damn poem has to be good for something

I mean he's even got the Alex Mack injury in there. Sort of. Kind of. If you squint.
