TheFunPolice Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'll watch because I don't want to miss something potentially great Last year's SB was great with the perfect ending McVay is a very good coach who has the benefit of being young and not just doing things a certain way because that's what you do like so many other coaches He is unpredictable. Rams are loaded with talent. So I give them a decent shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 1 hour ago, BillyWhiteShows said: Keep in mind, people said the same thing last season. Philadelphia was an underdog and Belichick was going to school Foles into having a bad game. Jim Schwartz’s defense has never been very effective against Brady, and the secondary with Ron Darby and Cory Graham were going to burned by Brandon Cooks and Gronk. How’d that work out? Two out of three, I’d say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) I call bull#### on those who say you won’t watch. As a football fan, you follow the sport all year and then when it gets to the biggest spectacle in sports, you do something else? Then when everyone is talking about the game the next day, you chime in with how you watched Seinfeld reruns instead? Or how you spent the day at the antique store with your wife? lol Edited January 21, 2019 by LabattBlue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was still a bit bitter at the Titans for music city miracle. As far as Super Bowl zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz match-ups, I got Giants Ravens Steelers Cardinals Colts Bears Buccaneers Raiders it was a SB with two surprise teams in a lousy year that i didn't care about at all heading into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing Bong Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) 2 hours ago, Man with No Name said: don't want to but hard to avoid. kind of pisses me off there has been maybe 2 super bowls in the past 20 years that I could just enjoy and not give a ***** about the outcome. Interesting take. Mind telling me specific SBs? I've particularly enjoyed the Giants bowls, Eagles, Ravens, Seahawks.. bunch of birds mostly. Not so much Steelers and Pats wins but that's just about it. Eagles last year rivals my 2007 Giants SB as best SB outcome ever (in my limited years). Unless of course you're just talking Pats I totally get that. Anything else you got beef with? EDIT: I misread your post. You want to be totally nuetral in a game. I'd say a) that's difficult, and b) teams beating the Patriots in the SB is much much more satisfying I like caring about the outcome!

TheFunPolice Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Brady and Belichick both coming back next year makes it a lot less pressure for me If they win someone still gets the chance to knock them out next season. They won't necessarily go out on top. That makes it easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'll be rooting for Andrew Whitworth. One of my favourite players, a tremendous technician and an upstanding guy off the field. It could potentially be his last game at the age of 37. If so, I want him to go out on top. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all those years in Cincy he got almost zero attention from anyone in the media or any of the talking heads. He has been an outstanding football player his whole career.

TheFunPolice Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Brady threw 3 INT against a garbage defense on a day where NE moved the ball at will One didn't count, thanks to Ford. But still... Rams D has shut down 2 top running games this post season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of people feel that way. I think they are calling it "Patriots Fatigue" like it's a documented phenomenon. I will watch, but if it turns into a blowout, I'll stop watching. And if NE wins and I'm still watching at the end of the game, I will turn the TV off faster than you can say "Patriots suck" so I don't have to see any celebrating.

thunderingsquid Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Goodell is carefully watching his plan play out. He got his boy in there again and is getting a huge market in LA to care about football again. So Kraft-y of him.

I usually get back (Mountain Time) just after kickoff. But something weird happened last year - lift lines were longer than on previous Super Bowls, traffic was heavier. Patriots fatigue? Everyone caught onto my idea and ruined a good thing? We skied last year during the Super Bowl. I watched the game after I found out Pats* lost. Good time with the family instead of stressing over a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
