    Bullsh*t! It's all Belicheck. Put Brady on any other team and I bet he doesn't win anything. There's a reason he was afraid that Bill was pushing him out the door.

    Andy Reid the serial choker when it matters and clock management is not his strong point when Kansas finally win another super bowl I suspect someone else than Reid will be their head coach. Scored their final TD too early seen that script before usually it doesn't end well, butm I didn't bother with OT. I find NFL overtime rules to be the worst in all of pro-sports. Its effectly decided by flip of coin.

    The OT rules are fine. With a Super Bowl on the line, if you can't stop a team from marching 75 yards to a TD, on your home turf, then you don't deserve to win.

    I suggest "Black Sunday" but please not The Patriot, Patriot Games, The Brady Bunch or Tommy Boy. :facepalm:

    But after the Steelers beat the Pats, everyone said they were done...:cautious:

    Another Patriot Super Bowl and most likely another win for the “Evil Empire”. :getsick:

    After the jobbing of the Saints and now this, how much less appealing can the NFL get?

    So Belichick will take the Rams run game away and force Goff to throw.
    A no name Patriot DB will have 2 picks and be MVP.

    I am not.


    Aaron Donald and Ndamokung Suh can collapse the pocket for certain. Dante Fowler Jr. has played better as of late the same. The secondary is still a concern of mine though. It is not very good but has played better the last couple of weeks sans this Championship one.



    Offensively speaking, I think that, if Gurley can get better, the Rams have a good chance of winning. That being said, scoring some points is going to be key.

    I picked the Rams to win the SB early in the season. Sticking with it.

    Really? Another SB I'll have to endure hoping it doesn't happen?

    Thank you very much AFL...

    A mathematical improbability if you ask me. They are 1 out of 16 teams each time. Something has never added up.

    How can you line up off sides in that situation of the biggest game in your life?

    Failure. Complete and utter failure of the Steelers. Epic failure.

    The Giants are better than them - just don't play them enough.

    The Pats are given 6 wins every year by an inept division, get a home game and a playoff bye most years. They take advantage of other team's mistakes. I can find a team better than them most years, but sometimes the better team doesn't win.

    I think KC is better than them. I think at the end of the year Indy was better. The Steelers were better this year. The Steelers and Chiefs both beat themselves with stupid coaching, poor execution and a lack of discipline.

    Does it mean the Pats are the greatest or their opponents are just undisciplined and self centered?

    Yep.


    Wade Phillips has had success against Belichick and Brady in the past the same. Add the fact that this verison of the Patriots is not as powerful as the one he faced in 2015 and I do like their chances. That being said, both Talib and Peters need to have good games; Peters especially. Suh and Donald will also be key. Interior pressure is the best way to get to Brady.



    Offensively, Sean McVay is going to have to pull out all the stops this time. Stay aggressive. Attack for 60 mins.

    I’ll just agree with @HeinzMustard patriots will win.


    I think this is Steelers fandom worst case and likely will happen following the seasons pattern

    Apparently it's because the Patriots are the greatest.

    The Pats will find some weakness - see what Kamara did today. They'll use their back like that. Also not sure how the Rams will defend Gronk.

    Draws, screens and traps to neutralize Rams D line and use their aggressiveness against them.

    Not saying I want to see it, but....
