So obviously Super Bowl 51 the Pats beat the Falcons. In Super Bowl 47 the Ravens beat the 49ers.
The Pats trailed 28-3 and yet cameback to win the game in OT.
The 49ers had a similar situation, trailing 28-6 in the third quarter, and fell a 'goal to go' situation short (hold or no hold?) from completing their own comeback.
The difference: The Pats have Tom Brady and the 49ers have Colin Kaepernick. nuff said.
Anyways, it would have been so disappointing to have the valiant comeback effort fall short and all for naught....to only be considered a footnote like that 49ers team. Especially when Edelman made that crazy catch, I'm sure we were all thinking........oh, man, that would be so sweet if this REALLY meant something (to be part of a victorious comeback).
What a game. The Ravens almost suffered the same choke job that the Falcons did. Randy Moss was part of that Niners team. As he was watching the Pats comeback unfold I'm sure a part of him was thinking "oh man, if only we completed that comeback in SB 47....THIS is what it would have felt like".
