Super Bowl 2nd half Game Thread


Recommended Posts

Maybe I'm the only one who appreciated this low scoring super bowl. But I'm also really angry at McVay. He was supposed to be the new wave of innovative coaches. Instead, he's just another bum in a long line of coaches who can't figure out how to not act like a ***** fool against the Patriots.

There really wasn't a true highlight in this game ... a great catch, a long breakaway run, an impressive QB scramble, a huge hit (I guess we're not supposed to like that one anymore). Just a dull game, start to finish.

Yeah, just a bad game all around. It wasnt low scoring because of the defences playing great, the score was low cause the offences just could get going and get out of their own way. When there was an INT it was usually from a bad throw.

Here's a clip of holding call-

It's just one bad call. They happen. And this one happened at exactly the time in the game when the Rams were figuring out how to attack the Pats pressure off tackle, and would have given them the lead with less than 10 mins left in game. Also- zero holds called against Donald or Suh all game. To recap, this call against Sullivan was another extremely questionable call, in the Super Bowl, against a guy who wasn't even in position to make the play, in a game where they were deliberately keeping yellow off the field. And it changed the course of the game entirely, in favor of the Patriots.

Good point. I was waiting for a long delayed "make-up" call since the Rams were only here based on a blown call in the NFC Championship. No matter what the Pats could've done to the Saints, no way Brees was going down scoring a measly field goal. What a shame we didn't get the game we deserved.

I enjoyed the D work this year, last year was a disgrace for the D

Thought it sucked. Cooks looked like he could have come down with at least one of those catches in the endzone. No Gurley.

 

And Belicheck played a damned good game. Great secondary play but the offensive execution obviously wasn't there either between poor quarterbacking, receiving, or no Gurley. Bleh Rams. Alshon Jeffrey probably comes down with 2 TDs from the throws targeted for Cooks from Goff's long balls if we're thinking of the comparing a single advantage the Eagles had with offensive execution last year.

I did not see that live...

 

It's a very weak call to say the least...?

This post game is a train wreck 

 

Nfl botched it bad

 

Man who cares about the post game?? The game itself was a train wreck.  The comercials were trainwrecks and the half time show I don't even know what to call it...train wreck is too nice a word...Adam Levine was beyond terrible

I felt going up to it that there just didnt feel like any hype going into this game. Years past all I remember  going up to the game was the coverage of it and it being such a big deal. I barely recall hearing much about it leading up to today. Then the game itself was boring with no scoring, not because the defence was playing fantastic, it was because they both were just playing really badly.

 

The best thing about the game was the halftime show, and that's not a compliment to the half time show as it was pretty  bland and  boring too.

Maybe Goodell will finally get sick of the *Pat's.

It makes me both angry and sad that the game I love has come down to wwe levels.

It just seemed like any time the Rams got something going...a flag was thrown. 

 

That's true, but look at the caveat there  - there simply weren't enough times the Rams got anything going.  That's on McVay, mostly, and Goff, some.

The Rams didn't do as good a job preparing Goff for the kind of D NE likes to play as Pederman/Reich/DeFilippo did with Foles.  And even Romo was politely calling the Rams out for having statistical tendencies and following them - "time to move away from your tendencies" "you've got to move away from your tendencies". 

 

Then there was that drive-killing pick Goff threw just when it looked like the Rams might tie it.

 

I hope Allen was watching and taking notes.

It was pretty bad. I’m fine with it, every game isn’t a 34-31 game with a last second score to win it. But this was a pretty gross game. Punt bowl

There have been a ton of worse games. SF-Denver in 1989, Raiders-Eagles in 1980, Raiders-Skins in 1983, SF-Miami in 1984, Denver-Dallas in 1976, Bears-NE in 1986, Bills-Redskins in 1992, Bills-Cowboys in 1993 ... that’s just a start. I didn’t even list any Vikings games or even all of Denver’s blowout losses.

I actually totally agree Hap.  Even though the flags killed the Rams, it was Goff's ineptitude and McVay being outcoached that were the main reason the Rams lost.  The only side of the ball that was prepared on the Rams was the defense...and even then they couldn't contain Edelman.  I also think the Rams were not as explosive as a team this year when they lost Kupp.

 

That's why I really didn't care that NE won...as much as I hate them.  They were beatable yesterday, had the right team played them.

 

The Superbowl would have been better game wise, IMO, had either the Saints played the Pats or the Chiefs played the Rams.  In the former...two experienced QBs and HCs and in the latter, two inexperienced QBs.
