The Pats got lucky this game. But they were due for luck

[BobDigital]

That catch by Bennett and Edelman. 2 lucky tips. They had 3 go against them.. 1 in each of the last 3 super bowls 2 of which we lost.

Sometimes you need some luck on your side. And this team never said die! Clutch!

 

[pherein]

nah they just never gave up and thats special

The biggest give-away play in the game was by us--the pick 6 when we were about to score. That made it 21-0. And things looked very very dire.

Brah. 31 points to win a game isn't lucky.... Lucky is a fluke helmet catch

BB prepares for more situations than anyone else and puts opponents under the microscope more than anyone else.

That creates breaks.

 

[Betterthanmost]

If we are not able to make it next year, I will root for the Falcons. That was brutal. I don't think I will ever recover from that. We will be in their head forever.
This is what BB always talks about when people complain about running up the score. It is never over.

We where unlucky twice against the giants. It's about time we caught some breaks. It's amazing that we getting it done with poor offensive line play and these wrs lol. TB's the goat. I am still shell shocked

 

[BobDigital]

BTW fun fact. At one point the Falcons had a 99.6% chance to win going by past scores and time left. What a game.

Especially with Edelman's catch. That was determination. Sheer, absolute determination. He wasn't going to be denied.

I agree. the Edelman catch had a large skill aspect too it but some luck was involve that Bennett catch when it was tipped in the air and Bennett got 15 yards for a first was total luck.

Stop.

You just watched something LEGENDARY.

Enjoy it.

Agreed. Edelman didn't care about anything else, he wanted that ball. Incredible.

I do enjoy it and people are taking my post the entirely wrong way. The Pats in the last 4 superbowls they played had some crazy plays happen. This is the first time any fell their way.

Not sure why there's so many "disagrees", I said the same thing after the Edelman grab. Considering they've had freak grabs work against them, it was great to FINALLY see them get one that went their way and sparked their own come-from-behind incredible win. Just an amazing win.

You don't think the Butler play qualifies?

Nope. That was a great play and well earned. That was not a helmet catch or some crazy crap where it is just pure luck. That was great recognition and a clutch play. The play to put them down there is the first place though. That is a 100% luck play!

Actually, we have been lucky since the Pats hired BB and drafted the GOAT.

JE's catch was pretty much our Tyree catch.

The luckier catch was that Bennett catch though IMO. Edelman got some luck but a lot of skill was involved.
