A perfect bookend to holding the Greatest Show on Turf to 17.So that was the best defensive showing ever in a Pat's Superbowl. If anyone had suggested that half way through the season they would have been put in a psych ward!
Miami fans can feel pretty bittersweet right now. Pats win another one but they get Flores.BB and Flores.
That was the best defensive showing ever in the super bowl. Tied only with the Cowboys in V.So that was the best defensive showing ever in a Pat's Superbowl. If anyone had suggested that half way through the season they would have been put in a psych ward!
Yup, will be sad to see Flo go. But what a way to go out.Miami fans can feel pretty bittersweet right now. Pats win another one but they get Flores.
Yes, when he smashed Goff right on the sideline, on a play that wasn't flagged. I think that was Jackson.Defensive game plan and execution were perfection. Literally everyone came up with a big moment. Even with Chung out, Harmon comes in and makes a big play. Jackson was great, did they even mention his name all game?
Lions fans, on the other hand: just bitter: 38 fewer points given up than last SB.Miami fans can feel pretty bittersweet right now. Pats win another one but they get Flores.
Well said. BB didn't need anything to cement his legacy as the GOAT but this was a legacy game. It is right up there with the first Rams Super Bowl and the Giants-Bills Super Bowl in terms of BB defensive masterpieces, maybe even better given the utter level of domination.To have lost how they lost last year and come back and pitch a near shut out is just staggering. This was also not a case of massive offensive drives keeping the defense off the field with 8 minute drives.
Patriots we 3-12 on third down conversions. They kept giving the ball back and the defense never fucking broke.
It is one of the greatest achievements in modern football that I have ever seen.
Belichick is simply the GOAT. These players go in the books as the most resilient defensive Patriots ever.
Jim Nantz didnt have that record?I wonder if the Rams set a record for most punts
This.Edelman, of course.
The entire defense.
Ryan Allen.
Absolutely. 100%. Biggest play of the game. If the Rams pick that ball up, it's a different game.As we watch replays we will start remembering huge plays but one that sticks out is Andrews recovering the fumble.
Yeah, if the Hall of Fame could only have one Belichick game plan, they might have to swap out Giants-Bills for this. And Wade Phillips had a really good plan on the other side, which only helped to highlight how great the BB one was.Well said. BB didn't need anything to cement his legacy as the GOAT but this was a legacy game. It is right up there with the first Rams Super Bowl and the Giants-Bills Super Bowl in terms of BB defensive masterpieces, maybe even better given the utter level of domination.
