Dream scenario for Lynch’s return

[n6249c]

Now that Lynch has signed to return with the Seahawks I’ve been thinking about a long-shot dream SB scenario...

Fourth quarter, seconds left, Pats up by four with the ‘Hawks driving, time for one, maybe two plays, with goal to go inside the five. Sounds familiar?

Except this time Pete learns from past experience, calls a run to Lynch. And he gets stuffed by Guy and the rest of the Boogeymen. Clock expires, Pats win.

What are the chances? How sweet would that be?

Or we could be up by 21 with 5 minutes left so I don’t shave 5 years off my life every February.

Or we could be up by 21 with 5 minutes left so I don’t shave 5 years off my life even February.

Be realistic, that February actuarial impact is part f the price we pay for being in so many big games every year.

What are the chances? Very low.
How sweet would that be? Mildly amusing maybe, but basically not sweet at all. You do realize the Patriots won SB49 right? We have nothing to get revenge for.

You underestimate the haters. They would call Pete stupid for going to an over-the-hill running back, like they call him stupid in SB 49 for not going to him in his prime, and claim that the Patriots have all the luck.

I would prefer seeing Jimmy against Brady. The story lines would be endless and if Pats won, that would be the ultimate prize for Brady, it would prove all the people that wanted JG over Brady wrong !!

We are on to Miami

“NOW he decides to run the ball”
No desire to relive the moments leading up to the Butler interception in real time. That was a very dark moment

IDK - my dream scenario is for the Pats to win the SB, no matter who the opponents on the way there, and for the return of Marshawn Lynch to the Seahawks not to matter one iota in my dream scenario...

Stop living in the past, man.

I'd think two out of three SB's and a regular season MVP already did that though.

Or, Pete stubbornly calls the same pass play only this time JC Jackson intercepts it.

I was thinking the same thing except Jonathan Jones

Lease Mode!

Lease Mode!

Least mode? Did you forget the T?

 

[VrabelJr]

This story would be better if Eli Manning was the running back

 

[brdmaverick]

There are better dream scenarios this post season............

The top has to be a Brady vs Jimmy Super Bowl......I mean, could you imagine?

The next would be beating another Hall of Fame QB like Rodgers or Brees.

no, lease as in short term rental

Man, shave it down to 2 minutes and I can breathe. I always keep things in perspective by considering the Patriots accomplishments. We scored 3 TD's in 60 seconds against the Jets in 2012. We then scored 3 TD's in 57 seconds against the Bears in 2014.

It's hard when your team has basically pushed football to its limit, so you're all too aware of how any scenario can go bad, given the fact that we've mainly taken advantage of those scenarios.

I don't care who intercepts it. I just want to see the non-Patriots fanbases go apoplectic over a replay of that scenario.
