I know I’m late to the party, but man what a game. It was an incredibly strange game, but man both defenses were stifling. It was a 3-3 game game for 52 minutes and 59 seconds. That’s insane. The Pat’s defense was the best I’ve ever seen their defense play. I said they needed to play defense like the did vs the Chargers and Chiefs in the 1st half of those games, but needed to do it for 60 minutes, and they did.
And Brady did what Brady does, on those last 2 clutch drives. I really was worried how Brady was playing, and how the whole offense was playing, because they were gaining yards, but coming away with nothing to show for it, and sometimes that comes back to haunt you. But the Pats just dominated the Rams, especially defensively.
What an amazing feeling, so many people doubted this team, they weren’t doubting the offense, they doubted the defense. But having Edelman & Hightower (defensive MVP in this game I felt) back, was a key reason they won. If they had those 2 guys last year, they would’ve won SB 52, I have no doubts, key clutch playmakers. But who cares, SB 53 champs baby ! And the future is still bright !
