Post Game Thread...We are the Champions!!!!!!

[Ross12]

Ross - At DT, they have Brown, Valentine and Hamilton. At DE, they have Flowers..

The rest are free agents. They need more than "help" at DE. They need the bookend to Flowers.

I actually wouldn't be surprised to see them take a DE and and OT early..

True, I guess I was assuming guys like Branch and Nink would be back. DE is a need either way.

 

[DaBruinz]

He's been making it a point that hes wants to be paid PAID like a SB champion last night, I doubt we are going to give him what he's looking for based on what he said looks like he wants a big contract and was excited about going into free agency as a champion so I take it he's going to the highest bidder, dont see him taking a discount to stay here but we'll see

I didn't see him say that as I didn't watch most of the post game stuff.. Assuming he did, then yes, he's probably gone though I think he's going to find his options limited because of his reputation..

Still feel sort of sorry he couldn't keep on 53 and Pats couldn't keep him on PS.
Good boy..

Mr. Combined Roster Moves shouldn't forget about Kilgo! We could be talking about him this time next year ..

Who was the last one to have three in a row (salary cap counting only)?

I'm paraphrasing but he said SBs increase value in FA. He sounded like hes looking forward to hitting the market but I certainly don't take that as being unhappy here.

He wants to get paid which is his right. I don't blame him one bit.

Who else lost it when Brady was on the ground in tears of joy when the confetti was falling down? I've never seen him break down like that made a grown ass man like myself tear up

I imagine there is rejoicing in New Orleans.

Just once I'd like to see a 43-10 blowout win that leads people to say "Well, that sucked".

That's this coming season...

Tom Brady, Patriots earn stunning win in greatest Super Bowl yet

I've known Galynn Brady for a long time, and she's an unfailingly sweet, understated and understandably revered woman. And while I'm fairly sure that she and the other members of the Brady family haven't been very happy with me over the past two years, given some of the strong opinions I've voiced about the deflated-ball scandal that led to the four-game suspension served by the quarterback to start the 2016 season, some things are bigger than football, and like many others, I've been sincerely sending heartfelt thoughts Mrs. Brady's way.






And so, on the most Super Sunday of all, it felt necessary to make that clear. As one of the most amazing athletes I've ever had the pleasure of watching emerged fully dressed from his postgame shower about 90 minutes after completing the ultimate mic drop, I looked him in the eye and congratulated him, and he looked me in the eye and said thanks, and we had a brief conversation that reminded me why I've loved covering him for the past 16 years.

I told Brady that what he'd just done was one of the most unbelievable things I'd ever witnessed, and that I was happy for him -- and that I understand that some things are more important than football and am pulling for him and his loved ones as they confront the challenges that truly matter.

He could have rightfully blown me off, or given me a cursory nod, but instead, he thanked me and gave me a heartfelt handshake that let me know he really meant it. He then left me with three words that evoked memories of less-strained times and made me grateful that he'd gotten this shot at redemption -- and converted in a way that was truly magical.

"Take care, babe," Brady said, smiling like an exhausted warrior celebrating a bittersweet and taxing triumph.

I've covered so many of his great moments, including five Super Bowl victories. Both of us understood that this one had been the greatest of all -- end of story.

I hate to admit this, but I was bawling my eyes out that last overtime drive. I don't think there was a doubt in anyone's mind that that drive was ending in a TD. That drive and the entire narrative of the game was just the perfect poetic capstone on the last 16 years.

I could see him in Seattle. Jimmy Graham hasn't done much, and the Bennett brothers would obviously love to be on the same team.

 

[MS Reb]

one underrated part of the game. Pats wasted so much time and ran so many plays in the 3rd Q even for a FG, in the end that wore out the falcons.

The Pats ran 93 plays for the game to the Falcons 46. It was clear the Falcons were sucking wind badly in the 4th quarter. You could just see the doubt began to creep into the "Dirty Birds". The end result with a little help from the Falcons was inevitable.

You missed the last sentence which for some reason isn't in the article.

"And with that, he reached back and took out the knife from his back and said 'I think this is yours, babe. GFY.'"

Is Vollmer a FA? He should be back next year. Can't completely rely on that though I guesss.
