Pre Super Bowl Thread- On to the Rams

He's been doing it all season. Not sure where to rank him but he's definitely one of the better young QB's. He didn't fold under pressure at all and drove his team down the field for the go ahead score a couple of times.

I've got nothing at all against the kid. I just see him getting the Peyton Manning treatment from the media. That deep pass he made to the endzone, for example, was a brain dead throw that should have been picked by the Patriots for a game winning INT.

Vegas now has Pats as 1.5 pt favorites to win SB. Rams had opened as 1pt favs. Didn't take long.

Rams have announced they are wearing their blue/yellow throwbacks in the SB, which means we’ll get to wear white

What you have is the desperation to annoit him as a foil to TB. I like Mahomes. Give him TBs current offensive core...would be what he is? I’m not sure.

We will soon hear from Marshal Faulk in all his salty glory.

He's getting the Aaron Rodgers treatment. I think it was Jim Nantz who said something along the lines of "I can't remember any player being so explosive and capable of doing anything at any time" as if that's not exactly what people said about Rodgers as late as the week before he was eliminated from the playoffs this year.

Guess will end up between -2.5 and -3.5

Book is out on mahomes. Like any great QB, need pressure, but can’t let him escape... easier said than done! Not unstoppable!

Rams were favorite in SB36. Only because they had a high flying offense and Brady hadnt hit his stride yet.

Does anyone feel that BB just hates Brady haha not to be that guy but man

 

[fightingirish595]

Superbowl Here We Come

This has been a tough season.

We've had to overcome a lot, and I have to credit the coaches for putting things together the last two months. Of course, I've got a lot of faith in Scar & Bill anyway.

I really liked a lot of things I saw since training camp, but we also had tons of things to fix.

It's one thing to show a lot of potential in September and October, but it takes a lot of hard work to follow it through at the end. Besides '76, we never did that until '01.

This year's Pats are among those we can be most proud of.

I was in Atlanta scouting it seems like forever ago, and they were doing construction around Mercedes-Benz Stadium. They should be ready to go now for us.

We just need to focus on our game plan now for the Rams, and when we get down there make sure everybody carries their ID wherever they go, or be liable to be arrested, thrown to ICE, jailed and deported. Not kidding.

We've got a great chance to pick up #6, so let's all ramp it up and take this one home.

Nah but I feel like this is the last hurrah for both of them together. I’ve felt this way for a while. Win or lose, I think this is the last time we see BB and Brady as a HC/QB combo. I expect this comment to take a lot of heat. It’s more of a hunch

Pats should be favored. Not sure it will get that high, though.

 

[nabwong]

Crap. The game was so intense that I forgot to eat all the snacks I bought.

 

[long distance]

Did something happen to White and/or Michel? They were playing Burkhead exclusively late in the 4th and OT

Michel had a limp after 24-21 TD late in Q4 . sat down quietly on the bench with some staffer kneeling to him. Can't recall seeing him in the game after..

I've poured myself a double finger of whiskey and am making my rounds onto other NFL message boards... starting with the Colts, then our division rivals, then the Chiefs for a night cap
