I have zero problem with Patrick Mahomes being lea gue MVP. The Chiefs are relevant now. When they had Alex Smith, I never once had the feeling that they would actually get anywhere. It doesn’t feel that way anymore. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen any QB with the kind of improv skills that Mahomes has. Maybe Brett Favre, but 50% of the time his improvised plays resulted in a turnover.
I can’t believe it took this long for Pat Bowlen to be put in the HOF. He’s the man who negotiated the TV contracts for the NFL that allowed for them to grow in unimaginable ways, let alone all the success he’s responsible for as owner of the Denver Broncos . I wish he was stable enough to be at the ceremony. I’m glad that Champ got in too (and he does deserve it) , but it really should have been Steve Atwater instead. I hope it happens for him soon. I think they got it right with everyone else. Also, I forgot that Ty Law played for the Broncos for like 5 minutes.
Ugh, the game. For the love of God, please let the Rams win. Tom Brady is already the greatest QB, it’s not like he can become greatest-er. Besides, I want to see Wade Phillips get another ring. And Aqib Talib to get a pick-six (or at least a pick) . And CJ Anderson (new Economy size!) to score another Super Bowl TD.
I’m on my own for the game, so I’m debating on whether to watch it at home or go somewhere. There’s a decent cigar lounge nearby, or I could go to BWW or something. What’s Oppo’s plans for the Super Bowl?

I’ll be at home, and will probably sorta watch part of it. But if it looks like the Pats will win, I’ll bail. Hell , I’ll probably bail either way.
Just not that interested this year.

I didn’t watch a whole lot of complete games this year. The whole season was just kinda meh for me except for a few games.

Apparently there has never been a shut out, and the largest margin of victory is 45 points.
I’m rooting for a shut out, with the winner winning by at least 50 points. Don’t care which side is which .

Wi n or lose, this game should be entertaining as hell. I’ll have people by, and I’m sure I will be doing very l ittle sleeping tonight as usual after a SB.
You should definitely go out rather than watch alone. Considering your locale, most of the routing interests will match your own, which will probably make it better.

Yeah. I’m very familiar with the game that was the highest margin of victory. Oh, that was painful to watch.
A shut out will probably never happen. I mean, never say never, but it’s not like the worst team in the league somehow stumbles into the Super Bowl. If you make it there, you’re probably at least good enough to score. If it did happen, I bet p eople would lose their minds.

Understandable, since the Broncos weren’t any good. I feel the same, in spite of the Bears actually being good for a change.

I wanna see whatever team is winning by 50 points throwing downfield at the end of the game trying to score more. Also aggressively blitzing the losing team, just to rub it in further.
Basically, break all the unwritten rules about sportsmanship and whatnot. Kinda like what the Patriots were accused of a few years ago during the regular season. Or what college football teams do, like when Ohio State pays a community college to go there and lose bigly.

Sitting here at halftime, not exactly the game I expected. Both offenses are stinking it up.
I expect a damn to break in the second half, opening things up. I just have no idea which way.

Well, the first half was kind of a snoozer. Hopefully it'll get going after halftime.

I still want to see Talib make a play, though the way he holds the ball after he intercepts it drives me nuts. COVER IT UP, GOOBER!

The play I expect from Talib is ripping Patterson's chains off.

Nah, that's just reserved for Crabtree. But he might pull a face mask on him that dislocates his head.

One of the strangest games I’ve ever watched, but as a Pats fan the tension was unbelievable. Every play could have made a difference with such a low scoring game. I’m not opposed to a defensive battle from time to time.
