Program Alert: Wed 9/6 is "Patriots Night" on NFL Network

I know the Tuck Rule Game is historically significant but it really shouldn't be on this list.

Though Tom did throw for 238yd in the second half and carried the team as they almost totally abandoned the run. And finished 32-52-312.

Agree. This last one was pretty lackluster. Something just felt like it was missing. It didn't feel like it really encompassed the entire season. They were skipping around a lot and going out of order like they really didn't have much to talk about. A lot of talk about records but not really too much about the team.

I think I blame Gronk for 2014, he's just so chill and goofy that it kinda makes it an "up" tone throughout the episode where it's just non stop joy and good stuff. This episode kinda felt the same way between Blount and Edelman. I think if it had been High, maybe Nink and Solder or something it'd be a little more serious but I liked it anyway

Drew Bledsoe yelling "You're the Man!" was great, no ego at the moment just shared joy.

It's not a bad list but it wasn't great. 2 games from 2009 and none from 2007. How does that make any sense?

Tuck rule game seems way too high for me.

IDK, coming back from 10 down in the 4th in that snowstorm, throwing for over 300 yards, was pretty damn impressive. He solidified himself as the team leader that night. Given the conditions and the importance of the game - certainly one of the most important games of his career.

 

[n6249c]

Did anyone else notice the play in America's Game that Blount pointed out, where Brady was out in front of him trying to play the role of lead blocker? Blount said he put his hand on Brady's back to guide him through traffic, and mentioned that he thought Brady emerged unscathed because of the respect opponents showed him. The replay certainly looks like some of the defenders seemed to go out of their way to avoid Brady but that may just have been that they were more concerned with trying to get to Blount to tackle him. Anybody else see it and have an opinion?

 

[rochrist]

Wonder what the top ten games will be?
Off the top of my head:

SB 51
SB 49
SB 36
Denver AFCCG '13
Week 16 '07
Titans snow game
Any Steelers AFCCG
Fog game against Chicago
Browns week 5 2016

That's 9. 10 is just to hard. Those are just ones that stuck out even greater than he usually does. And that's pretty hard to do.

I thought the Top 10 show pretty much sucked. I mean, it was nice to watch TB12, but it was full of so much tacky NFL porn and idiot commentary.

Plus 8 for 8 in OT

I'd probably say half going for the ball carrier. A quarter respect and a quarter fear of personal foul.

I'd probably say half going for the ball carrier. A quarter respect and a quarter fear of personal foul.

I'd say it's more pure respect. I'd assume the same for guys like Rodgers etc. No need to pick up a possible penalty or "be that guy".

They were skipping around a lot and going out of order like they really didn't have much to talk about. A lot of talk about records but not really too much about the team.

Too much jokes and jokey in general. Instead of the epic music, the slow motion shots of plays from new angles, and generally sombre, serious tone of past America's Game episodes which made it feel like an important occasion. These guys just seem to be goofing around through the whole show. Julian trying to improvise jokes that are not working and he's admitting he didn't know where he's going with them. Blount, who sat on the sidelines in the Superbowl, commenting about remember the exact comments he made sitting on the sidelines ............. like who cares.

I wish they had made a more serious version. And included Brady, and Patricia or McDaniels, or BB, or Bennett although Bennett would be goofing as well but atleast he was more relevant to the offense than Blount.

I mean we heard all season long, including at the podium from BB, about the toughness, resiliency, hard work, guts, of this team. This America's Game episode mentions none of this. They don't even bother mentioning Harmon rallying the troops etc, or how they physically outlasted the Falcons.

America's Game Link


Hey folks, sorry about doing this again but we a a bit behind you and are at the whim of SKY TV when they show it.

Has anyone got a link for America's Game from last night?

 

[slam]

Sequels are rarely as good as the original. This is the Transformers: The Last Knight of the America's Game franchise.

 

[Pats Fanatic]

My god people are spoiled here. They made a film celebrating a Super Bowl win but we get nit picking complaint after complaint. It's kind of funny.

 

[Nehalem]

Funny thing is that Aaron Rodgers has managed to accomplish that exactly once in his career.

Yet Brady did that in his first year as a starter, in his first playoff game, in a snowstorm, and we are debating if that counts as one of his top 10 games

Tom Brady also threw 52 passes in the game. See this tweet

The only QB(min 8 games) with a win% of more 33% in games throw 50+ passes is Warren Moon at 5-5. Brady is 18-9.

For any non-Brady QB the tuck rule game would clearly be top 10 material.

 

[Kontradiction]

These last couple of Americas Game Pats episodes just don't bring out the water works quite like the 03 and 04 versions did

You really cried over those? Jesus. They (and '01) were superior episodes. But these haven't been bad, either.

 

[Dagg]

I agree with most of the top ten but a few i didnt. I was always a big fan of the show ponies unicorn, wheres the beef comeback on the saints.

 

[PrairiePat]

I actually enjoyed the Top 10 way more than I thought I would. It was kind of fun to watch comediens and celebrities who hate Brady & the Pats have to grudgingly admit that yeah, he's the GOAT. And then pick and choose from the hundreds of eligible games in his career that might make the list And frankly it was nice to go back to some of those games and see how awesome he was.
