Anyone else almost get physically ill from that 4th qtr and OT?

This is the second time I converted to Christianity, Catholicism, Islam, and that one religion with the elephant dude just to pray for a win in as many different forms as possible. First time was in SB 51.

Life expectancy for a Pats fan has dramatically decreased since 2014. The good about being a Pats fan: So many championships! The bad: You'll die earlier.

I was a bit surprised because I have lost some of that intensity of fandom over the years, but I actually did have a pretty rough night after that game... I stayed up for a lot of shows, and then felt ****ty in bed... my jaw was like rattling and shaking and I had to force it to not move for a little bit. Seriously.

It was fun for me.

My whole body was shaking/hands like I just survived a near death experience, first the muff punt/review process then the pick then Chiefs TD then our whole TD drive then Chiefs with the ball back then their field goal kick then the OT anxiety..... f*cking overkill but not complaining lol

The non-muffed punt review was excruciating. I give the officials tons of credit for getting it right.

I turned it off after what I thought was that KC pick. I checked ESPN and we were still in the game so I turned it back on right after gronks catch. I went from complete anguish to joy in about 5 minutes. I had seen us lose in heartbreaking fashion in Pittsburgh earlier in the year and I thought the same thing had happened.

I need to watch a game with you guys! The 4th quarter was so up and down and suspenseful. I did not mute the TV tho. It was all good after the Patriots won the coin flip. But seriously, these close games need to end. Ok, one more for the win and then a break.

Chest pains are normal. Right?

Blood pressure was through the roof for the second half. Late in the game, I kept telling my wife that I was going to puke.

Oh yeah man. It gave me great perspective on how clutch this team is. I'm not even playing and I'm shaking and about to vomit from how many different times I thought we lost it.

That INT and then the NZ penalty on KC nearly killed me

I woke up this AM feeling like I went to the gym for 5 hours and drank 20 beers..still can't focus on work

Wife threatened to beat me up for shouting.


"What a game" in my sleep.

No, after 28-3 my stress levels aren't the same. Maybe 60% of what they once were for games.

28-3 wasn't bad because I had already accepted the loss and figured even keeping it close would be good enough for me, let alone winning the damn thing. By the time it was 28-28 I knew we were gonna win

I had a Sprite. That help calm me down. But when Brady started jumping around like a kid after the win, I open the door of my home in CowBoys nation and yelled Let's goo!
Patriots! Didn't get to sleep till 2 this morning..

Same. I was at Reliant for that one and I accepted the L..this game was way worse IMO

my son was so overcome during the 4th and OT he actually started tearing up... he's 10. He changed jerseys 3 times trying to change the mojo.

Yes to all of the OP, even had a couple of friends over who started rooting for the Chiefs. Increased my stress level.

they are not your friends

I hate to admit, on many of the Pats 3rd and 4th downs. I paused my TV, and looked at the result of the play on my computer. My wife thinks I need help!

got 2 stents put in this September b/c Patriots football was coming.

WTF do you expect? LOL
