I was locked in so maybe you're right. I thought both teams did exactly what they were supposed to do and the game was decided by one yard. If I were a neutral fan, I would have really enjoyed that game.Brady and Wilson were pretty meh most of the game.I don't get anyone saying the game was sloppy or poorly played either, I thought both teams played a great game.
Just was not a great played game by either offense for most of it.

Wilson was hot and cold. Brady was pretty damn good, though. He threw a terrible pick and another was ill advised, but over all he was outstanding. He rightfully won MVP. Overall, it was a very well played game by both teams. I'm not sure what there is to complain about other than you being a Sea fan and they lost.Brady and Wilson were pretty meh most of the game.I don't get anyone saying the game was sloppy or poorly played either, I thought both teams played a great game.

Except for the two picks and the two pressures Brady played great.Brady and Wilson were pretty meh most of the game.I don't get anyone saying the game was sloppy or poorly played either, I thought both teams played a great game.

Edit...there were some nice throws by both...but I don't think it was a very cleanly played offensive game by either QB.
37 of 50 (74%) for 328 yards, 4 TDs and 2 INTs.

It is fitting. People railing on Mccarthy for not putting the ball in the hands of the league mvp and it cost them a trip to the super bowl. Now Carroll will get railed on for not putting the ball in the hands of who might be the league's best rb.

But all of us commented that it was sloppy and boring to us until late in the 4th quarter where it got exciting.
(and they thought similar of the NFC Championship game and don't like the Packers at all...couple Cowboys fans, a Titans fan and a Giants fan)

I thought Brady and Wilson played pretty good. Definitely much better than the QB play in the NFC championship game.

Brady could be in the conversation. It's a matter of opinion. I still say no.Bellicheat is a different story. No way he should be considered.
And your the homer here.

This was a huge surprise to me as well. I really thought he'd have a large role in the Seahawk game plan, especially if they spied Wilson. Really odd they didn't features, but also seemed like he wasn't on the field much at all.

Good point. Salty vajs got out of hand. I thought Gronk literally punched a dude in the face mask. Ha. 15 yard penalty on SEA. Cry babies

Maybe I'm biased, but aside from the last 30 seconds of the 2nd quarter and the entire 3rd quarter I thought the Pats were clearly the better team.

That game was a like a heavyweight prize fight. It looked like New England (challenger) was dominating in the first half, but somehow Seattle (champ) managed to tie it up before the half. Then Seattle took over in the third quarter (normally where the Patriots shine) and go up two scores, looking like they were rolling to victory. Then Brady leads two really, really good TD drives in the 4th quarter (where Seattle usually shines), and take a 4 point lead with 2:00 to go.
Jab. Jab. Right hook. Uppercut. Champ is dazed but comes back swinging.
A couple of nice pitch and catches, and then the miracle catch that seems to haunt the Patriots in every super bowl loss.
Jab. Jab. Left hook out of nowhere to stagger the challenger.
But then the Butler pick; the champ walks into a wild, lucky haymaker that crosses his eyes and it looks like it's over, but he's not down yet.
Because of a dumb celebration penalty, the Patriots are now on the 1 yard line and can't kneel down. Still a fighting chance. Then Seattle goes offsides, letting them off the hook. It is the equivalent of missing an uppercut and hitting your chin, knocking yourself out.
It was a great game to watch, two talented, evenly-matched teams that I think would be 5-5 if they played 10 times. Congrats to Seahawks fans, it was a great season and by all rights you could have been celebrating tonight. I have a feeling you'll be back soon.

So you didn't feel lucky to be tied at the half? I'm genuinely curious (and drunk / euphoric), because I was extremely disappointed at that point.

Sure but Seattle was dominate in the 3rd quarter and anytime this team is up ten that's usually a win. I thought the game was evenly played, and in the end the result said as much. One yard separated these teams, that's pretty cool if you are a neutral fan.

Can't get over that Butler play. How many guys would have just wrapped up and hoped he didn't break the plane?
((Morpheus))
Footballguy
Agreed. I'll let the neutral fans decide where that game belongs in a historical context, but I imagine it's up there with the Rams/Titans game?ETA: I thought the Pats were equally dominant in the 4th...

Pete takes bullet for Bevell, Bevell throws player under bus. MT @bcondotta: Darrell Bevell says Lockette could have been stronger to ball.
**** move. Lockette never saw Butler. He probably thought the pick worked.

I missed this because I was jumping up and down hugging a random guy - were the Patriots going to kneel and take a safety there at the end before Michael Bennett made his case for Super Bowl MVP?

No. Looked like Brady was gonna sneak or try to draw them offsides which is what happened. Whether he drew them over or they just went offsides I dont know.

Just was not a great played game by either offense for most of it.
Also, he only played 14 plays in the AFC championship game and not at all in the divisional round.

no -- they actually drew him offsides
that was the play
if it hadn't worked I assume they'd have tried to punch it through for a yard

Had a house full of people that erupted into debate on this very topic. Was glad to see NE overcome that unreal catch.

I ask because the year they released Moss they were talking about if the Pats win Moss still gets a ring.

I thought New England controlled the game. A couple miracle plays made the game as close as it was, and it was a great game to watch. Very entertaining for a Cowboys fan and glad to see Brady become the GOAT I always knew he was.

Really glad for Amendola. He's taken a lot of crap.

After the pick, the Patriots were flagged for excessive celebration. Instead of 1st and 10 at the 2, they were pushed back to 1st and 10 at the 1, so they didn't have space to kneel it even one time.
