Official Super Bowl Game Thread..Pats vs Eagles

[TomPatriot]

Left 4 points on the field. That and a stop on 4th and goal is the difference.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

If you rely on comebacks so often, you're bound to come up short sooner or later. But let's hope they have another one left in the tank.

1st day?
Watch

We have no defense. The offense really needs to be perfect from here on out. You gotta believe but right now is looking bad.

 

[SVN]

I dont think philly will stop playing aggresively and this defense isnt like last yrs. They were better in the front 7.

My friends (non-patriots) are harassing me and really pissing me off right now. I want to make ONE statement on Facebook that really pisses them off. Help me with that statement please!

Just close the browser. Who cares ?

It doesn't matter how well Brady plays...this D is garbage

WORST coached game I have ever seen by bb

I'm stunned that Butler is not in the game. Unless he is sick I see no excuse why he is being held out. They said he was in on ST's.

1. Cooks isn't walking through that door.

2. Missed kicks were snap/ placement problems, NOT Gost.

3. Maybe Butler's not out there because he cannot yet play because he's still recovering from the flu.

4. Can McD sober up during the long halftime?

Philadelphia just has a more talented roster, it's as simple as that. It's tough to survive losing four of your seven or eight best players, and the Patriots have experienced that this year with Edelman, Cooks, Hightower, and Cannon. And they've taken another one of their next few best players out of the game.

 

[VJCPatriot]

10 pt game but we get the ball to start 2nd half. I still feel like we are in this we just need to execute better.

 

[SammyBlueCat]

I think BB has to consider an onside kick if they score. He's got to.

Hell no

Let them know you'll be happy to help give them ideas on how to celebrate winning a Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history, should that happen, since you've got experience celebrating five in the last decade and a half.

 

[PatsFanInVa]

So we have the “Super Bowl MVP” corner on our team and he is not playing. This is a monumental fiasco. I demand answers!!!

 

[aluminum seats]

Team decision.

Safe to assume he will not be with the team next year

Gotta wonder what the hell happened there

 

[Gronkowski123]

im stunned that foles is doing so well....peterson outcoaching belichick. it's surreal to watch, so many creative plays and belichick has no answer. get rid of jordan richards....

if this continues, we're getting blown out

 

[50-yard-line]

Team decision.

Safe to assume he will not be with the team next year

Disciplinary? GTFO!

 

[DOGWARZ]

Let’s see ST craps the bed. Dumb Brady trick play on 3and 5 when it was not needed etc. why does mcdaniels have to pull stupid play when they are not needed

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

Defense has really screwed us. Giving up big play after big play. That's what our defense is supposed to prioritize.

The offense can and should put points up but damn we need the other side of the ball to step up.

We need both sides of the ball to step up. Literally everyone is pooping themselves.

 

[MainePatsFan26]

Who is saying that??

I don't know who's saying that, but it is stupid either way. If a team doesn't believe they can comeback, that "humility" is suddenly a virtue? No team wins when they don't believe.

 

[DaBruinz]

Halftime adjustments + probably (I hope) putting Butler back in the game after a 1st half benching = a different game.

That's what I'm telling myself anyway.

I don't know wtf Butler did, but man it's hurt the team defensively his not being on the field. Having to rely on Chung covering a WR with Richards covering Ertz has been a disaster. It must have been seriously egregious ;for him to not even see a defensive snap in the 1st half.

Eric Rowe had 1 good play to save a TD, but he's sucked otherwise, getting burned a few times.

Jordan Richards has sucked horribly. When he's been on the field, Philly has gone right at him.

Going with the no huddle is what the Pats need to do. When they've stuck with it, the Eagles haven't been able to stay with them. When the Pats let up in the Red Zone, the Eagles were able to make the plays..
