Gilmore makes the INT

[fnordcircle]

He doesn't drop it like Asante. Or Welker. He catches it.

How can you not love this defense's heart? They had no right playing as well as they did and this, this play right here is what capped it all off. He caught it. It didn't go through his hands. He caught it.

Defense could have 3, HT flat out dropped his, and Dmac was in great position to get his if Simon hadn’t batted the ball down at the los.

 

[Joey007]

Best CB in the NFL.

I love when 24 picks off the Rams to help a Superbowl win!

The history came full circle.First Ty Law then Gilmore have burried Rams.

MVP

Eh. It was a good play. But the key to it was the blitz. Goff threw that thing up like a punt because he was about to get crushed.

Duron "The Closer" Harmon on the blitz.

 

[StockingAnarchyNumber12]

I love this guy.

 

[Redman443]

Gilly went full ty law.

 

[FrodoBagginz]

Let's not forget Jason McCourty's game changing batting the ball out of Cook's hands preventing the TD. He came out of nowhere stopping that almost guaranteed TD.

The entire defense was MVP.

 

[edkk323]

He also caused that fumble which went out of the bound.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

Hightower had 2 sacks and 3 QB hits. The more I think about it if Hightower caught that int he might have gotten the MVP trophy.

D had several MVPs

.

I am glad he got rewarded with a Super Bowl win. Last year's Super Bowl he was the only standout player from that defense, a wasted performance really. I hope he will be our next Ty Law, the next great Patriots HoF CB.

Worth. Every. Bil....I mean penny

 

[Wheelman]

Did anyone else think Gilmore was going to pick it off exactly how it happened when you saw the all out blitz?

When I saw Harmon rushing and then Goff threw it under pressure, I expected to see Gilmore to pick it off right there.

 

[voluntarysaftey]

^ before the pass I was thinking 'this is a pick' just because of the way the D was pressuring and Goff was basically not looking and had already thrown a few balls for grabs.

That was a terrible decision by Goff. Maybe the Rams don't score even with 4 downs, but when you're playing against an elite CB and very good safety, and you can't see, you don't just chuck it up. Live to play another down.

 

[farn]

To think this guy was getting grief last year... every penny.

 

[BTTA]

Edelman was a fine choice for MVP, but only because there were too many too pick from on the defense, with Gilmore being one of the top options.

 

[sambam94]

Gilmore just grabbed Cooks arm enough so he couldn't catch that pass in the end zone. Harmon getting the credit, but it was Gilmore with the slight arm grab. Cooks couldn't get his arm free to catch with 2 hands.
