Great moment watching Brandon Graham make that play.  Great win for Philly.

After all he went through during RR era.  I immediately thought of Magnus' avatar picture.  It's amazing to see him so happy and successful.  A Super Bowl Champion! 

Congratulations, Brandon!

So Rich Rod had Brandom Graham on his D-line, and the defense was...pick your favorite colorful expression.

Brake Hoke had Taylor Lewan and Michael Schofield as the offensive tackles, and the O-line couldn't run block, gave Devin Gardner PTSD in pass protection, and gave up the Clowney hit on a blown assignment.

Lloyd Carr had Tom Brady, and never once went to the Rose Bowl with Brady as the starter.

Given our history, it seems to me we might want to give Jim Harbaugh and his assistant coaches a little breathing space to get the QB and O-line situations addressed.  The defense has spoiled us when it comes to our expectation of instant fixes.

That felt a lot like the Woodson Brady play. Happy for Brandon. Disappointed for Tom. If Brady was going to lose this game fitting that it happened this way. Hope he gets another title before he’s done.

Pass interference clear as day ... Pats ball at the 2 yard line with a chance to score. Horrific call and the crew went silent except to say ... Gronk was not checked at the line and went free down the field and the ball is up ... garbage.

Agreed. I think they were both catches but also think those same plays were overturned this year. I’m shocked they didn’t overturn the Clement catch and less so the Ertz one. I can almost guarantee that call stood due to the potential outrage if they overturned it.

I didn't care who won. I "lost" like $50 total on the game. That's not even close to enough to upset me. I've watched a ton of NFL games this year and both the ertz call and the one where clemwnt "caught it" in the back of the endzone have been called differently throughout the year. Nobody has any clue what a catch is anymore.

If anyone derails the GOAT, at least it’s another Michigan man. I’m good with this ending. Brady has five titles. Tonight’s outcome does not change his legacy one ounce.

How can you lose a game without punting. Brady was awesome. Neither defense showed up all night. The 2 questionable td catches were horse shit calls. Both of them would have been overturned in the regular season. Should have been called back.

The Eagles seemed the best prepared among the eight teams Patriots faced in the Superbowl. They had a lot of pre-snap motions to try anf confuse the defense. They called a good game. They called some plays that a few other coaches would never call. Fourth down call to Foles near goal line. Then going for fourth and one near mid-field. 

Kudos to them.

Gronk was mugged. NFL can't call the obvious pass interference. I mean he was mugged by 4-5 guys. Clear as day - watch the replay. Integrity needs to go to the whistle.
