Open Thread – Super Bowl LII
February 4, 2018
by Steve Thomas
This is an open thread for chatting and commenting for today’s Super Bowl. Have fun and stay classy, if possible.
The game starts at 6:30 p.m. ET on NBC.
If you want more info on the Patriots or the Eagles, this is the link to our 2018 written playoff preview:
Wow… Kelly turned out to be a bitch. Got butthurt on being shown his own words on Twitter and bitched up like a cupcake.
That’s not even the only reason for being butthurt I’m sure.
I don’t understand why NBC wasted so much opportunity costs in advertising the Olympics and their own shows. They had all game to do interstitials instead of $5 mil lost every 30 second Olympic commercial, and some of those other show commercials seemed like 60 seconds. 15 seconds and out. The ads weren’t worth watching this year. They only ones memorable were the Tide ads. And why does the NFL waste money on nothing commercials that serve no purpose? I’m sure some business consultant, after taking NBCs money, told them it was a solid choice.
Hey Scamp, here’s one thing to talk about – Alex Smith. Move along; new post: http://www.thehogsty.com/2018/02/05/lets-talk-about-alex-smith/
saw some rugby on Saturday, no idea the rules, but those guys are insane. all that hitting, no pads..no sllding to avoid contact etc…
Watch the Premiership League, best pro rugby, IMO.
Even the greatest QB in the history of the world needs a little defensive help. It’s either that or he can’t carry the team on his back .
Sincerely,
Dan Marino
So what do we talk about for the next month?
Politics!
No thanks… how about Eli’s dancing
Sorry, sarcasim font wasn’t added.
Suspicions confirmed…
We’ll have plentt to talk about in the next week or so when the Skins tag Cousins.
cousins will not be “it”. why would we tag him?
and, no tag-backs.
I think its all a rouse, but Sheft said it could happen!
Mock Drafts, Zach Brown, and who Alex Smiths Dreamy Eyes.
RGIII. Should we kick the tires and bring him back on the cheap?
So… did Philthy get what it deserved and burn down over night?
Stone and steel buildings are resilient.
I see some carrying steel light poles down the street…
Yeah, I saw that.
One of their fans ate horse feces on camera
So there’s that
AHAHAHAHAAAA!!!
SPAULDING !!!
no way, greg. no way…. i mean… even philly fan…
Yes way, Garth, way
Mmmm…. this one is a bit peatey… but this one over here… this one got that hint of oak and alfalfa… top notch…
back to you in the studio
-Good Morning Philadelphia
rocky balboa must just be so pleased right now.

We are talking about sports riots, that’s wimpy stuff.
Rioting over something political is very different, we do that better than anyone.
I’ll be back when you guys have finished getting your feelings about Philadelphia out of your system. Later.
Lighten up Francis.
My bad. We’re just jealous.
What’s that about
Philadelphia, in all it’s glory.
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42943824
Let them burn it to the ground
Hopefully in the process some of them are caught up in the flames
I’d be flipping out if my kids were out there.

I’d be forever known as the asshole dad that didn’t let his son go to the Superbowl riot.

BULLSHIT!
Horseshit!
Though they say it’s a gateway drug, he’ll most likely move on to bullshit.
James Harrison has nothing left. He had a couple bull-rush-pressures but aside from that, he should not be on an NFL field anymore because he is now a weak link, a liability and inevitability, a target.
And he played almost every snap. Says more about the Pats than Harrison
Agreed. They had no one better to put at that position apparently. JH ended up on the ground half the time it seemed.
Sooo are the Lions having buyers remorse? Yikes
Pats needed Hightower and D Rivers
Dudes were uncovered on the outside at the LOS. Was more than a Hightower or Butler absence
I’m thinking they struggled to read the play, all night. Pederson got some nasty shit going on.
I respect BB’s track record, letting expensive player’s go before their second contracts, but I think he messed up when he didn’t re-sign Chandler Jones.
Or replace him with the younger/cheaper version, which is the only way his strategy works.
And they play AR twice a year. And Keenum. Definitely not the AFC East
That’s true
I don’t think he’ll be a good head coach, but that’s based on some snap judgement and not obviously a deep dive
I can count to potato- BCooks
That kid got his world rocked
http://static3.businessinsider.com/image/5a77a5d1107290d71a8b4c56-1264/brandin%20cooks.png
shockingly, that play was not a penalty.
Runner
helmet to helmet.
Not when you’re a runner. Look it up
hhhmmmm…. i see what you’re saying. seems like a helmet to helmet hit like that is just as dangerous as any other helmet to helmet hit. that’s a weird loophole, imo.
This is why WRs fall down purposefully in the open field at times. Unsure what’s coming so it’s self protection. We think it’s them being biatches but Cooks proved otherwise
He ran around in a circle first…
Why should it be a penalty WIF? Because he got crushed? It was his own fault. On an NFL field, if you lose your bearings or don’t know exactly where the fuck you are, that’s what happens.
It was a clean shot and the Cooks got himself hurt.
If the Pats went down the field and tied the game and went to OT, there would have been a great chance Brady would have thrown for 600 yards.
Unless the Eagles scored a TD (were they to win the toss)
Yeah, big “if” but I would have never thought I’d see the day when a dude lights up the best D in the lig, in the SB, for 600.
would you rather be the patriots* or the eagles heading into next season?
Rather be SB champs…so…yeah.
Lol
the Patriots are losing their OC and DC and don’t have the lines the Eagles do. The Eagles also have the ability to put a SB MVP on the trade block and get potentially even better through the draft.
I’d like to be the king of England.
Dilly Dilly
Dilly Dilly!
Philly Philly!
i’ll just go ahead and put it out there that when the redskins win their next super bowl (what…? stop laughing!) dc won’t riot.
(well… maybe just the fans who are maryland fans and skins fans…)
DC isn’t a rioting type city.
We are all about pretending to have class and dignity.
What we will do is go and intercourse our mistresses like crazy.
We’ll march on that bridge again – Southeast
You must be too young to remember Mt. Pleasant/Adams Morgan. That shit was crazy.
At times Tom Brady looked awful. Poor ball placement, and inaccurate. Not giving his WRs much run after catch.
And dude still threw for 500+ yards.
Did not take as much of a beating as I thought he would.
But I did foresee the end. That game felt like the Eagles-Rams game where you thought the Rams were going to finish them on the final drive, instead the Eagles D finished them.
But the Pats totally goobered that final drive. Wasted too much time and effort on that first first down. Should have taken several 10 yard completions rather than 3 wasted long shot tries. And that reverse. I mean, I love Burkhead, but he doesn’t have the NFL speed to take that very far even if he had broke it. Risk not worth reward.
I think that hit he took to the chest rocked his ass.
I loved it
Every
Second
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Klr3oa4Bco
Not for nuthin’, but Brady finished with 505 yds. passing (a SB, if not post-season record), 3 TDs, and 0 INTs, for a QB rating of 115.4.
And 1 loss
I’d have to put that on the defense’s total inability to stop anything more than TB … much as I’d like to blame Brady.
I’m just saying we often nit pick our QBs when we watch them play, and Brady through some really average passes during long stretches of the game. And some of his WRs were inexplicably wide open, and Gronk is always open. Not saying he had a terrible game, but we should remember these things when we critique our QBs.
And maybe I’ve done as such with Sam Darnold?
Guy walking around in an eagles jersey at a place with at least 1600 pats fans. This is kind of great…
Philly is even more trashed this morning than it normally is. Knocked down traffic lights, a looted MACY’s and other local small businesses (way to go geniuses) and generally trashing their own town.
What a bunch of morons.
I was expecting more. Like Watts riots more.
They had to get home and beat the ever loving hell out of their wives/girlfriends.
Philly is celebrating the same way everyone else does when they win their first. The trend toward rioting/looting was happening before Philly, it will happen after Philly. This isn’t a Philly thing.
Oh sure it is. This shit didn’t happen in Boston or Seattle or even Baltimore of all places and Baltimore is just barely less dumpy than Philly and they didn’t trash their town.
It’s college bullshit is what it is. It’s a sign of someone that has no clue what it’s like to “be there”.
Yeah, history says its all Philly…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_riot
Who said it’s all Philly? You did.
I said it’s “so Philly” and I am 1000% correct and you are not.
Lord almighty, I can’t even with you today.
it is deranged Criminal Activity. And I think those people need to be Arrested plenty of cameras to track them down.
Hey Greg, you see any barbarians running around up there yet?
apparently some wildlings made it past the wall:
“In New England territory, six people were arrested and a number of injuries were reported as approximately 2,000 people congregated at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst after the game. According to the University, medical calls included head injuries, lacerations and alcohol intoxication.
UMass Police reported that fights broke out shortly after the game ended, and the crowd threw objects and set off smoke bombs and firecrackers. Police issued multiple dispersal orders before using pepper spray to clear the disturbance.
UMass Police are proceeding with criminal charges and the university will also initiate a conduct review.”

And so it begins.
My daughter texted me that one of her friends got arrested for rioting
I used it as a teachable moment

This has probably been discussed, but thoughts on tagging Cousins?
Don’t.
Very, very risky. I’d prefer to move on down the road and not look back.
TP has his opinion…woops he dropped another one
https://twitter.com/terrellepryor/status/960217559743303682
tagging Cousins allows him to freely (with permission) go seek offers from teams right now, win for him
it allows prob some small compensation for the Redskins
Cousins is going to get more than 34 million cash, so that isn’t as much of a factor. Stafford got 51 million last year, maybe Kirk doesn’t get that much, but a 15 or so mil salary with a 25 mil signing bonus isn’t out of the question once they flip that FT into a LTD. This is not that dis-similar to what the Chiefs did for Smith.
The Kirk is not impatient.
Yes, but LIKE the Skins, getting this “done” before FA helps his future team in their off-season. How much is that worth? 2nd round pick swap and a conditional 2019 pick? not much, but compared to the potential of nothing? my point was, it could be something both teams would want to do. a little for me, certainty and timing for you. and businesses value that. and Kirk still gets his free agency, in a way.
No I didn’t hear about the thing with Malcolm Butler?
What happened?
Relishing in their misery
He only played on special teams. BB won’t say why, other than “football reasons.”
“football reasons” or he was sick all week, or who knows?
Probably some dumb ass punitive reason. BB can be beyond stubborn at times but he has power to do whatever he wants
US and European banks banning the purchase of Bitcoin with credit cards. Good. Buying any investment on credit cards isn’t really a bright move.

I was sitting adjacent to a friend m at a bar a few days ago while she was on her phone trying to buy crypto currency. And in 5 min after transaction her bank rejected attempted transfer of money. She was miffed.
As a friend you shoulda slapped her off her stool.
Lol
There goes another lawsuit.
Leave handprints all across you.
I’ve never heard it so quiet in pats nation after a Sunday like that. These guys are just bummed. I’m thinking to myself you’ve had 17 dynamic years and multiple championships. Shut it…
They are starting to turn on each other
Love it
Throw a stick on the fire whenever no one’s looking.
They had a historic run, but the writing’s on the wall. Might be able to cobble together a couple more campaigns, but I think that will be it.
I’m never counting out a BB lead team. But they’ve had a helluva run
One of the keys to BB’s success is that he has been an OC, DC and ST coordinator at different points in his career, so he intimately understands the importance of each role.
and what a good coach looks like in each role
did foles just play out of his mind, or is that who he is? he did have that magical season under chip kelly, but nothing much else until the last few games.
Seems like he’s a guy who can run just one system (RPO heavy), but he can run the shit out of it.
Bullshit. Dude ran several WC pays. They mixed it up well. was a helluva TX H.S. athlete in his day…
I call it the “Pederson WC RPO shithammer deluxe”
Your DLine won’t know which way to go, your linebackers will get gassed, your DBs will lose a step…… it’ll shithammer you.
He’s got a pretty good track record by now. When he’s in an offense that runs a fair amount of spread concepts he’s been deadly. When he isn’t he’s been average.
2018: Foles is under contract for $7.6M/$5.4 dead after playing this year for $1.6. Very attractive contract for a starter, exorbitant for a back-up. Especially for a team that has quite a few tough decisions coming up. The big question is: when will Wentz be ready? Roseman might just have to keep Foles, unless you buy that Suds could hold down the fort.
Probably can’t make that work, and if you can get a good pick….why not, to replace another big contract?
The thing is is….if they don’t trade, his contract turns void in its third year. Which is a year from now.
Yup, basically on a 1 year contract now.
The three Eagles fans at work, that’s right, three, are more cerebral right now, tearful, even. They must not be from Philly.
They can’t be. A true philly eagles fan would still be at home having the dry heaves this morning.
They’re gracious in victory, for now anyway.
Their team deserved to win. They were the better team last night and overall, the best team in the regular season.
Agreed
They were the more fortunate team. Not prepared to say they were better.
That’s your own issue.
I don’t need anyone telling me about my issues. My therapist gave me the list already.
Second on the list, take that pill 🙂
Oh oh right. Thanks for the reminder.
Be in the parking lot burning their own cars.
Or yours, a pink VW screams “Vandalize Me!!!” 🙂
Sorry, it screams, “FAAAABULOUS!”
Lol, that too
Fire them and bring them back down to earth.
Meh…I just hope Snyder was paying attention to the Chip/Roseman thing.
It turns out, contrary to The Hog Sty’s opinion, that Eagles fans are just people.
well… i mean genghis khan was “people” too.
He was, in fact!
The most important thing to do today, though, is equate Philly fans to the Mongol Horde.
no need, really, for me to do that:
http://www.newsweek.com/philly-police-scanner-reveals-horrific-scenes-philadelphia-fans-riot-after-799321
Trading the guy who just won you the Super Bowl, in a town that sets fires….would be a disaster.
Or would it?
They have a better QB.
Don’t see it happening. Wentz wont play til October
When things go south for the Pat’s such as what is happening now it’s simply joyous
Gronk might retire
Butler is furious
Locker room is divided
Ankle pants for me
I’d trade that for the smack all those ignorant Eagles fans will be talking for the next year.
There will be no tolerating them now
I saw Gronk last night, he looked defeated.
That concussion scared him
Might be a play for more money
His interview was telling. You know this all ends with Bill and Brady. Remember the old Pats, lol
the old pats* were much more lovable.
And sucky
Why the hell did the Pats not play Malcolm Butler , especially after their D was getting torched?
Not sure we will ever know the real reason.
$9.2 million
That’s the number OvertheCap has the eagles over their salary cap going into next season.
And, no picks in the 2nd or 3rd rounds.
And a Ring, not thinking they give a fuck right now.
Yeah they sold out to win the SB but they will have so harsh years coming up.
Bullshit; they’ll figure it out. Not too many holes on their team right now.
Good teams always figure it out. Remember when Dallas was in “cap hell?” They seemed to do OK.
The holes will happen when they have to make cuts to get under the cap. And, can’t retain their best FAs.
Maybe we go the Philly route…get the young QB and build out from there. SB trumps cap
Nah.
-Alex Smith
Lol. Alex may not be here…
While the Skins are happy with a slow and steady 20 year re-build, Eagles go from the dumps to winning the SB in basically two years.
I don’t think anyone is happy.
I’m just tired of hearing we’re in a re-build. We’ve been in a “re-build” the whole time Shanny was here and we’ve been in a re-build the whole time Gruden has been coach, and quite frankly, the roster ain’t all that right now.
Yep. Been that for years…rebuild…what an excuse
I wish Snyder would get angry and have an honest look at the team and FO. But I think he’s too cozy with Bruce and Bruce is too cozy with Jay.
the value of the team has quadrupled since he bought it. he gets to hang out with matthew mcohnehay (sp?) and dexter manley and stuff. snyder is likely pleased with how it’s going.
And really, they’ve been a contender since Andy Reid was coaching there.
Eating dust is the norm anymore.
slow and steady wins the race! you know – if it’s not really a race and stuff.
Foles has played great, at least since Peterson and staff poured over his game film his 1st time at Philly when he was successful and customized the play calling to what he does best. What a novel idea. Great coaching matters.
Which is why if your going to trade for him you better have or design an offense that fits his game.
The main point being: that’s exactly what good coaches do.
Cant design clutch. Foles was clutch.
Huh?
-Gruden
And I also wonder if Patricia had partially checked out.
is there a qb controversy in philly?
No they will trade Foles and get a 1st or 2nd for him.
No, they’ll roll with Wentz. Get a first for Foles.
They won’t get a first, but a second is absolutely conceivable. I can see a team like the Jets doing that.
Foles was dialed in last night
My gosh
He was the same against Minny.
He’d be silly to accept a backup role now. If I’m the Eagles, I trade him.
Trading the SBMVP….is crazy
Fuck them for the luxury of having that choice
RPO, Pederson is badass
The hit on Cooks. How the hell was that not a helmet to helmet call?
They said he had become a runner.
So helmet to helmet is ok if you’re a runner?
I think there is an outright ban on helmet to helmet hits period.
Love how the Pats tried a pass to Brady and failed. Eagles do the same for a TD. Talk about in your face.
well, gizelle has mentioned how he can’t throw them AND catch them. she was certainly right about the catching part.
Epic troll
Doug Pederson: ‘ Being aggressive wins Super Bowls. Being conservative gets you 8-8.’
Thats is real coach speak right there. Closing those 3rd and 4th downs was huge. Same thing Philly did to Skins…no let up on the pedal to the metal. Gruden hopefully took notes.
the 3 times in my life i’ve rooted for the belichick*/brady* patriots*, they have lost.
You’re hired.
I see a trend here. Please stop rooting for the Redskins.
Meh. He’s not a real fan anyway.
on the other hand, it would really suck if the pats* had 8 superb owls.
I think it would be cool just to have one superb owl.
Flounder?
misspelling “super bowl” with “superb owl” is just a game i play.
Hand
Fuck the Eagles.
You tell ’em, potty mouth.
i cannot believe that just happened. i woke up and wondered if it were just a nightmare.
Soooo, ummmm… uh, can we… uh… trade Smith for Foles?
We don’t technically have Smith. How about Fuller and a 3rd for Foles?
Can we downgrade that to Dunbar? Or, how ’bout everything for Pederson?
This ^^^^
It will be tough going from Super Bowl MVP to Wentz’s backup.
They’ll have to trade him….
Dude balled for them. They gotta go let him go to start somewhere next year.

Dude, its Philthy, Not much different than a typical Saturday night in Philly. Only difference is it was a Sunday and they started a little earlier than usual.
Cops should go in there with a show of force
Use up every rubber bullet they have
No, they save those for fans of visiting teams.
Quiet so far today at work
Seems like a great day thus far
Congratulations, enjoy ever minute of it.
Trying with all my might not to spike the ball with this one
Bring it on slow, let them wither in the agony of defeat. They’ll do most of the heavy lifting.
Wearing Green? Or is McDonalds going to make you wear their standard uniform today?
Chris Russell was on the Junkies a few min ago, and they all tripped over themselves trying to figure out the potential Kirk FT thing.
Why would Cousins want to help the Redskins? The Redskins stabbed him in the back. Cousins can’t talk to teams.
It would work exactly how this worked for Smith. Kirk would have early Free Agency. I don’t understand why they don’t understand that. There’s risk for sure, but they’re making it out to be something really complex and conspiratorial.
The real problem Chris has with it is that that they want to hate on Bruce Allen, and if Bruce gets more than a ham sammich back for Kirk, that’s harder to do.
Snyder is a Trump guy and a businessman. He sees this stuff in terms of bottom line and winning deals. He has shown zero understanding of chemistry or treating people decently. Fans aren’t rooting for the most ruthlessly successful negotiators, fans are rooting for a team. A team is made up of people who trust each other to watch each others backs so they can focus on getting the job done on the field.
The tone at Redskins park, based on basically every account from people who have ever worked there in the last 20 years, is that there is no loyalty, there is no trust, there is no team concept. I wish Snyder would just go back to doing Johnny Rockets or whatever, but unfortunately he’s got control of the team I love and he’s going to run it the only way he knows how, which is the wrong way.
Be a damn shame for his limo to be run into a ditch. Followed by a fuel bomb on wheels. Just, tragic.
He also eats his corn the long way…….and, the long way is the wrong way.

Lol, I knew that’s what you were up to. Looks like a dorky kid with a lollipop.
If you really look around the pro sports, it is mostly, if you don’t perform, you have to go. Patriots and Steelers did it in the last two months.
my criticism of the current FO is that they seem to be trying to put together a good team all the way around, but don’t seem to have a lot of identity. that would seem to lead to a lot of 9-7 type seasons because you can’t develop the mismatch advantage in an area or two vs playoff teams. you’re just simply better than most of the league but not playoff caliber.
And last night should have been a dead give-away at the beginning of the game when Michaels/Collinsworth were talking about this matchup and said, the Eagles have the best OL and DL… and there you go. Everyone should have known that Eagles should have had a real chance with that statement.
Ate at a Johnny Rockets this weekend. Nod bad.
I would look at Jaylen Samuels in the middle rounds. Jay could exploit the shit outta him if he is receptive to coaching. NoVaMike has been drafting this guy.
Jay doesn’t use a FB/H-back/SlotWR
He should. Put that dude out there and A Smith has his check down, 50/50 with CT.
And if you had a dollar for every time peeps up here told you “Jay doesn’t”, well….
..
Well, we’re down a pick so two DTs in the draft is unlikely.
D DT/Ioannidis/J. Allen
McGee/Lanier/Francis(other) works fine for me
I’m more for picking up two.
POONA!
There’s one.
if they went 1st round true DT, they certainly could pick up a DE/DT later in the draft. That pesticide kid from South Florida might be a nice pick if the mid to late round firstpick grade isn’t totally fake.
What say you?
FA DT
FA WR
D DT
D OG
D RB
Critical path?
What say you?
FA DT – Not too excited about that. Hasn’t worked out well in the past few years
FA WR – Possible, but spendy for the right candidate
D DT – A must
D OG – A must
D RB – Possibly, if the right one
Well, at least that garbage season is finally over
On to the next garbage season.
Dilly, Dilly!
Dilly Dilly!!
Philly Philly. Thx to NPI
lol

The Patriots could have used Kendall Fuller last night.
My coffee’s not as tasty as it usually is.
Sprinkle some WC RPO in it and stir.
don’t understand the idiot fans lighting Streets On Fire flipping cars going into convenience stores and throwing their food all over the place I mean what in the world is wrong with people
The whole world has become a more toxic place, this shit happens all the time nowadays.
I feel like some dark forces are at work. Something unnatural has happened that allowed the eagles to win a super bowl. I suspect, an eagles fan from the future has come back in time and used advanced technology to manipulate events in order for that win to be possible.
Probably Daniel Snyder’s biological father…
Happy Monday!
Hpy Hpy!
Nick Fole’s play was the key. That game gets too big for him, they don’t win. He falters, and Bill beats Pederson. Pederson trusted his QB and let it all hang out, it paid off in Spades.
I called the Patriots to win it because I didn’t think Foles could handle playing on that stage. I was wrong.
As did I, but I don’t mind it, maybe Dan Snyder was watching and is re-evaluating some folks.
Hopefully he’s re-evaluating his exec staff.
Amen.
If his play was the key, giving him all damn day to throw was the key to the pat’s defeat.
Meh…the kid rose up, down the stretch. I’m not taking anything from him. We need to do better, deal with it.
He did have all day…..
Know why? Eagles have great lines! Offense and defensive. I have been saying that’s what we need to do too.
Yeah, but he preformed well through the end of the season, did his part. The eagles could very well have fallen.
yes he performed very well but part of that was because he had a long time to throw all quarterbacks at this level will make completions if given enough time.
We can argue any point, I’m not gonna. They won, he won. If DLinemen don’t know what’s coming, hard to pin their ears back.
The Doug Pederson WC RPO busted that ass.
I’m definitely not arguing I’m just pointing out what I would like our team to do build both lines please.
I definitely won’t argue against that.
Amen to that.
Congratulations to Roseman also, where’s ole’ Chip?
This shit really highlights how far from a ring the Skins actually are.
On which level, lol
The Eagles were farther from a ring 3 years ago.
Meh…
ikr
Pederson brings her home, backup Quarterback and all. Congratulations to him.
Looks like Butler will be available this off season he is a very good CB.
The Redskins may want to bring in a FA CB to shore things up while the younger players develop.
With the Eagles winning yesterday, the NFC East is now the only division that can proudly boast that all four of its teams have been Super Bowl Champions. No other division in football has this legacy.
Yeah they also have the most SB’s 13 of any conference by a wide margin.
The 20th century was a long frign time ago.
Philly will also be able to turn Foles into at worst a 2nd round pick they might even get a 1st round pick.
Yuck the Eagles are super bowl champions I hate all the other NFC East teams with a passion.
On the positive side, it’s certainly satisfying to see that Belijerk and Brady lost the big one. What an atrocious defensive plan. Was that Belicheat’s great idea? As time goes it’s clear that the “Patriot’s Way” is Belichik trying some jagazz moves while relying on Brady to bail them all out.
On the negative side, my Eagles-fan brother-in-law now has something to chirp about.
On the positive side of the negative side, though, my brother-in-law isn’t generally a big jerk, so I don’t think he’ll be too obnoxious. And there’s currently an ocean separating us.
Fell asleep immediately after the game. Happy Monday?
This is why Filthy shouldn’t have nice things

Sudfeld has a ring,
No one here should care. He warmed a bench… great for him.

ESPN U
Gronk considering retirement
So much for a defensive game, shot my throwback score all to hell.
Wow, maybe Snyder does some soul searching now………….nah, never happen.

HAHAHA
Jeff Lurie just killed his parents!
Whelp, in Austin, Westlake High School has two Super Bowl QBs. Drew Brees and Nick Foles.
Time to Netflix and chill
DG being up there is kinda awkward
I love it. Class act.
He’s a great dude, just not sure why he was the one carrying in the trophy
Hit that bitch with some Purell.
Green w the trophy better than the game.
Darrell clearly upset that he can’t rub the lack of trophy in the Eagles’ faces anymore.

Turkish hackers got to my prediction
Fake news!
Ironically, only one person was less right, more often, than D_C.
I called the winner’s score!
Yes, congratulations
I caught the loser’s score
Why, ah, thank ya, thank ya vera much.
Just had a hunch Philly was gonna bring it. Albeit not with zero defense. Ok…1 defensive play
Putting lips all over that dirty ass trophy!
Run, Darrell! Run!! Don’t give it to’em!
DG!
3’s rule. Took the 1st & 4th quarter for a $250 return vs. $40 invested.
I knew you were gonna kill that
Not gonna lie, I thought my chances were fucked when NE missed that extra point.
Hard to go wrong with threes
The Super Bowl MVP award should go to Pederson’s balls
Bummer
Brady threw for 505 yds.
Sudfield the super bowl champ.
Suds, the Bud Knight.
Philly Philly!
Well played, npi!
Annnnd, Foles has played himself into at least a 2nd round pick in a trade.
SB winner QB Sudfield
Hey Kirk, wanna see my ring?
The fans in Philly couldn’t even believe it
Sal Palantonio just gave Tom Jackson a facial.
Will this team even be the same next year?
No team is, but they’ll have to make a few tough decisions.
Trading Wentz?
LOL. Foles for sure, hate it they’ll get a good pick for him now.
Broad Street is burning already…
I’d like to thank flounder for picking the Patriots. I always go ‘oppo’ on his picks and just won a cool bill.
I like those bills.
We get to shitstomp the Eagles at least twice next year.
Mmmk
yeah that’s worked out good for us lately
Every other team in the division has won a super bowl since our last
NFC East represent. Great game. Onto next year.
Nick effing Foles
And thats all.
NFC East only division in NFL w all teams w a SB trophy. Top division in the NFL w Super Bowl wins. Screw em all tho. Lets hope we return somehow to glory w a seriousness someday soon. Hope we get Mayfield to start. No telling whats coming next. Hail.
God damn
THAT’S IT!
Break out the Crisco!
Howie Roseman looks like he was looking for Oliver Hardy
He looks vindicated
Let this happen…..Let Philly feel the ultimate agony.
Don’t let it get you down
It’s only castles burning
Helluva game
Tom’s not done yet
No Deion Branch.
4th and 10…. how much magic does this guy have?
He’s a magic maaaaan, Mama
Decent Super Bowl. Skins turn next year
Damnit. The desperate last drive was supposed to belong to philthy
Brady looks afraidy
https://hugelolcdn.com/i/418457.gif
Is that McNabb?
Safety upcoming
Another DJax play
That fooled NOBODY
Horrible
Defense wins championships *cough*
I change my mind. Mat Patricia sucks lol
Meh
THAT IS A CLUTCH ROOKIE
Elliot………………….
phone home
He did
KICK 6 RETURN TD
Fake FG
Brady aged 5 yrs. in the last 90 seconds.
I don’t like the conservative call
FG seals it, but do they risk it?
Still a one possession game
Foles is going to offer teams leverage when negotiating with Kurt.
A FG still leaves it a one posession game
We officially have nothing to hang over Eagles fans heads anymore. Even 3 to 1 rings hollow when they just won and we’ve sucked for 25 years.
I wish that’s how people thought.
– Lebron
It’s all good man.
Having things to hang over Eagles fans heads isn’t important. Having a good team is important.
We don’t have a good team though
We sure don’t.
Disagree. 🙂
It isn’t over quite yet
Might be the last we’ve seen Brady.
I may be nuts, but I really don’t think the Eagles can go conservative here.
We’ve seen the eagles do that at the end of a game before
Brady folding like an accordion…smh. Lawnchair bound.
Fitting end to a horrible season I guess.
First sack is the game clincher… almost
Fuckity fuck fuck
Muaaahahahahahahaa.
– Goodell
Game over
SOMEBODY MADE A PLAY
Damn
Women in Philly not being beaten tonight!
Baking more shitbirds
Rome has fallen
OMG
Game
Fuck
finally got to him…
Really though, if they’d have called it back…. Philly would start burning.
This is it. Pats will score
Worst jinx ever
Flounder like
NE with 1 TO
Time for the vaunted pass rush
Too gased
Zero fckn defense. Kinda sux in a sense.
got away with PI
That was the most blatant pass interference ever
They almost never call it on 2-point tries.
or corner fades in general
Comes down to Brady at the end once again
Team…..
Eagles are dead. Unless somebody makes a play
Which player has the hottest wife?
Me. Next question?
This is it. Some OT !!?
Not
Not now
shit
Good call.
Blast
Collinsworth is such a drip.
catch was complete and then he made a “football move”
It wasn’t a diving catch, he caught, took 3 steps and dove.
Right
He was a runner. He dove for the end zone, which is a football play
No catch
Incomplete
Always wrong son.
He was diving
He ran 3 yards w the ball
5 yards
My wife: “He clearly had it for, like, ages” (English accent, I love her!)
That can not be a catch. He lost it after being touched.
Wtf is Collinsworth talking about? It’s a TD. Ball crossed plane
Reciver going to ground or runner is the question
He was a runner.
Yes
did anyone make a call?
or are they going straight to review?
He was touched. Lost it. After being touched.
TD. Twice
This is where we would all be bitching about scoring too soon because our defense can’t stop shit.
Catch
No catch
TD
TD
Catch?
Lucky bounce
good to stop the cock now stoopid too wait cant let it run
– Flunder
Philly needs 8 here
Need an INT
Get the ball
Good clock management by Bill.
Phillys RBs and WRs are physical big dudes.
Please someone explain how these dudes are WIDE open. Zero defense
Was that Rappaport that almost got leveled?
Would Wentz have played better than Foles?
Great question. Foles side arming
Damn. Now I gotta buy a Hyundai
I bought one, nobody came out to thank me.
🙁
Privacy invasion
Black screen
racist
Kicker puking
Foles playing the game of his life
Again
He is. Lights not too bright.
Hey it’s not like it’s the last game of the regular season.
–Kirk
Clutch QB play in this game. Foles right up there w Brady. Wow.
Harrison needs to plant foles
damn what a throw
patroits need to stop the cock whenever they can letting run makes no cents
– Flunder
Get the ball
Alexa commercial was the best so far. I got money moves.
Mic drop
Damn
Peterson called a heck of a game. Love how he’s dialed up calls in critical situations
Jay would’ve resigned
Delay of game
Or Kirk woulda kneeled…lol
That was not a rub that was a pick, should have been OPI
Pederson’s balls get their own bus back to the hotel.
Gutsy calls. Clutch execution.
wowww
Shit
Go for it?
Pedersen will go for it
Go for it
Ertz thinks he’s playing the Redskins’ D
If Philly doesn’t answer here, they’re in big trouble because they can’t stop the Pats
Foles is such a pissant.
– Brady
OPI
Neighborhood ball
I will never root for a division rival. Eagles, cowboys or giants
Damn right
I would be less unhappy with the Eagles winning than with the Pats
Why, the division rivals? I only recently started rooting for the Cardinals occasionally
I hear you. Be rough if Philly does win.
I just thought they would .
Foles palms getting sweaty. Lets see if he can answer.
Bezos weird
Damn…damn…damn
See, look at that shit – Jay
That could be Smith to Reed next year.
Who is Smith?
– Reed
Who is Reed?
– Reed
Doesn’t quite have the same ring as Brady to Gronk
VD
Provided he stays healthy
Excellent play call
You got to use your hands.
– JPP
Working his fingers to the bone.
Somebody tell the Eagles that it isn’t against the rules to be in the same time zone as the Pats receivers
Dont see Long in bull rushing.
Pick’n them apart
Super Bowl offenses with Pro Bowl defending.
Good one
Wide open on 3rds..geez
And 1sts…
Brady has over 400 yards
– Cousins
He’s a flash in the pan.
No sacks, no fumbles, one INT = 1000+ combined yards.
Tom T. Hall in da House
Ouch
Cup check
Got him in the lower abdominal/upper thigh region
LOL Chris Pratt the extra in the beer commercial
I saw Joe Perry in that Monster ad. Were they all celebs?
They still let her rap?
Chased point….hmmm
PUNT
Just win for Basser
Spam = ground up pig peckers
Love me some spam – Sessions
I kicked his ass.
– K. Net
Regional/local break
Joe Bob’s Chevy GMC?
Jack in the Box
I got that in California as well.
I can’t smell!
#JackvsMartha
LOL Okay…
OK. That was pretty funny. Eli and OB with the best commercial so far
Please tell me you’re joking
Jesus tap dancing Christ.
Ha…that was funny
so we will have over 1000 yards of total offense in this game
Get a room
I’m so glad I’m not a Giants fan right now
Funny! Would be better with kicker net over Manning.
Look away!
I fuckin’ knew it.
Good lord
Gay
Vomiting
Burton is one the eagles will lose in FA
If the rumor earlier is true that TB and BB is retiring, there will be no one left to coach this team.
TB
Ha, probably.
Have the Eagles even punted once ?
Yeah
1 punt Eagles
Once
Has either team?
Only takes one good shot to take the starch out of Foles.
– Swaggy
My score prediction was 29 -27 Eagles. So much for defense wins championships… ?
Defense wins championships.
– Swearinger
Back to the good ol daysBruce • 6 minutes ago
Meh foles has barely played enough games
——————
Foles has 49 starts to Cousins’ 62
Foles is playing with house money . He isn’t supposed to be there . Nobody was expecting him to out duel TB.
Come on. Get a hand on Foles already
Fear the Turtle.
I’m now watching commercial breaks for one more Tide spot
Don’t eat any when the iggles take it
two missed extra points , looming large
True
Field goal also
“Those always come back to haunt you.”
– Every announcer who ever lived
I thought Bradley Cooper was Riley Cooper for a moment.
He would fight EJ Biggers.
Fallon stashing his bowl once he saw himself on camera.
Loved the babies commercial until it went T-Mobile.
Whatever this commercial is
Tell you what… I don’t care who you want to win, this is a helluva football game.
Yes.
Eagles are gonna need 40 to win this game. At least
Nice. Stayn in it
HOGAN BROTHER!!!!!
Patriots are characteristically not going away.
Cox failed to fill that hole.
Cox has been getting double teamed
Usually, the double-teaming is done by Cox.
Not in my world
Cox broke his protection and came early.
Came hard
Cousins and Smith are both better QBs than Foles, but Foles is more clutch in big games.
Meh foles has barely played enough games
Now following @Blacture on Twitter. Interesting in seeing where they take this.
Brady is gonna throw a pick
He’s teetering
Busted sternum
She’s ugly . I hate that for him.
Remind me to never let you set me up for a blind date
LOL
Foles 2nd best QB in the division
Behind Wentz
Right, sadly
Getting tired of Eli
– everyone
Okay, Aerosmith commercial way too creepy.
Weird right
Pats have had zero pass rush
For folks who were wishing the Redskins hadn’t pulled the trigger on the Alex Smith deal, take heart – they still haven’t, technically.
They talking KC tag and trade now…should have played that card 1st
Clown show . Embarrassing
Amazing people praising Smith and damning Cousins for on field play. Both guys are equally mediocre IMO
Smith puts up more Ws. Other side of mediocre fwiw
He’s had a ton of help
Smith doesn’t put up W’s. His team does
He beat us.
His team beat ours.
Putting up Ws is a team effort.
F Mara.
– Goodell
Be consistent fucking review office
BS
WOW – I give it to you, Dan & Bruce (the hamsters, not the Skins execs). Good calls.
pfft
Turbo fail
Bruce thumbing through the Alex Smith proposal, nervously.
Panic city.
Why
I was actually making a joke.
Looked like 2 feet down to me 1st. Held on thru catch….
I think it stands
Agree
no
He was bobbling it while going out of bounds.
Foles playing out of his mind. Crap. Eagles gonna get a 1st for him..
If the Eagles get a 1st for their backup while we get nothing for Kirk I am going to go to Bruce’s house and punch him right in the face
Get in line
They’ll get a 2nd for Foles, same as the Garoppolo deal.
Our front office is fine! They are average!
-Flounder
He didn’t have it. Still, great throw.
Foles is ballin and he has all day , whether it stands or not
Not a catch
Or something
No
foot on the line
No catch.
Goddamn, that’s two picture-perfect dimes in the back of the end zone
WOW. Just WOW.
Pats are down by 3 points in the 3rd Q. That makes it almost a certainty that the Pats will win.
Oh shut up. They haven’t pressured Foles for nothing
Nothing . Nada .
All day long
Collensworth creamin his jeans over Pederson.
Patriots gassed
Pederson wow
Love how aggressive Pederson is being
Ajayi is a beast. We should have traded for him
He would have been injured
Too young.
Laovau would’ve gotten him killed.
Joe Berry’s school of tackling
Forgot the call
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Will_Compton.jpg/1200px-Will_Compton.jpg
prized pupil and teacher’s pet
You’re up NPI, spin left, fake right
In fairness , I coulda picked all kinds of mofo’s
True
OLE’!
Nick Foles is feeling it to make throws into small windows like that with confidence.
Kirk would have pussied out on that one.
Def 3 and out.
Gotta stop comparing guys to Kirk. Let him go.
Shit there are some Skins fans who haven’t even let RG3 go
lol true
Sonny’s still hanging around too
I mean!
It’s like a bad breakup, got to have time to reflect.
He gone and I am glad we don’t have a pussy QB anymore.
Eh… Alex Smith also gets the Game Manager label.
Not our concern any more
That’s why I am glad.
Still on the team….
Shhh, come join us in denial about that.
Agholar redeems himself
Tackle
Fuck sake
This tackling…
I took Odell out and I’ll take you out.
– k net
Gotta catch that
Aghalor going after the OBJ net
‘It’s Tricky’
good catch
Here come the Pats
Was it Tide a couple years ago that intentionally had a stain on Terry Bradshaw’s shirt?
Tide stick
Tide has me second guessing every commercial.
Roll Damn Tide
Gawd, they spent a lot of money on them
Pretty lame commercials so far
Tide kill’n it
If I didn’t already use Tide I go out buy some
“use Tide”………..
Money laundering I say
https://media.giphy.com/media/rU4AADcERxnbO/giphy.gif
looks like he’s on meth
Power
Putin getting excited for another ring.
He straight up gangstered Kraft’s ring. That was so classic. Putin went Debo and was like, “THAT’S MAH RING NOW PUNK!”
A Smith will feed on Eagles corners if he starts. One plus. If Sprinkle ascends…
That’s nasty
Lol
No answer for Gronk
BB halftime adjustments are Gibbsesque
No sacks so far tonight, I think
Brady is doing tons of drugs right now and will lead the greatest comeback ever because he will retire right after the game and never be tested for sheeit.
Gronk time
Eli settling into retirement
Treating myself to a toke or three. Smithsonian Channel until the 3rd quarter KO.
Which state?
No Aerial America. I love that show. They covered DC and the Eastern Shore this weekend. On a 70″, you can get dizzy.
Prince’s people are not happy with Timberlake or the NFL
I saw Sheila E say that Prince had asked not to be hologrammed after his death (presumably for religious reasons), but I’d be amazed if they did all that without his estate’s permission.
The league owns that Prince SB halftime performance
Ahhh there it is. Prince getting fucked by bad contractual agreements even beyond the grave.
The guy from The Office is going to play Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan? Interesting choice.
It’s Jim!
Rainn Wilson?
It looks like the halftime show was filmed a week ago.
That kid was so blown away he couldn’t do anything but stare at his phone. Even though clearly the plan was for JT to come up to that spot and do a selfie with him.
Not bad.
That last song was very 90s boy band
Disney movie
Daughter is flipping out to this song right now, lmfao
and they just keep going, they won’t stop…
Okay, that made me cry when they turned the city purple
Very cool
JF Christ
Yes?
That’s better: just keyed up Zeppelin’s ‘Physical Graffiti’. The Wanton Song.
Good choice
I have recognized one song so far – Get yer sexy on
OK, sound off now…
Worst outfits on set
The best ‘not my genre’ halftime show was Bruno Mars. I had no idea he was so good.
He was a heck of a lot better than this
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
I’d rather see the iggles run the score up
Sound is screwed up.
Not my wheelhouse
At all
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMPSyOB2qNo
Your wheelhouse
I almost went with Bee Gee’s , I wasn’t sure
No sense of humor
Definitely NOT my genre…but he’s talented as hell.
It’s important right now to be the one with the remote control
This song sucks
Never heard it but I concurr

My daughter singing along to Alicia Keys, word.
Of course I’m at a pats SB party. Quiet as a mouse in the biatch
As long as it’s not one of those leave your shoes at the door parties
No defense necessary
Eli’s pilot
Peterson with the ballsiest SB call since S. Payton’s onside kick. A high school play at that.
Didn’t look ballsy to me
Just dumb luck is all
Dude.
Yea
I said it
LOL. Stupid, but yeah you did.
And I’d do it again!
Now I just spewed whiskey on my keyboard! Good one, k0n.
BS, ran their own play back at them, from closer in.
Ballsier than a bukkake shoot. He ran a trick play on 4th down with the lead, with 3 easy points on the table. If that didn’t work, he looks like an idiot.
Thanks for saying why it wasn’t ballsy
You’re alone on this one, but I applaud you for standing your ground.
Drinking ‘Texas Tea’ tonight?
I dunno what Eli was doing, but I enjoyed it
Practice
Whatever the final score, the iggles shit their wad to get here
They’re not going to be the same team next season
They have lotta talent. Wont lose them all.
They have a good organization.
20 of 22 starters are signed through next year.
They’re over the cap
Can’t bring back there top FAs without drastic cuts or dumping guys in trades for peanuts
Pederson is a good fckn coach. Damnit
Brady looks awful rickety running the ball. He should just fold up before taking off…
Padding the stats
Pats are still going to win.
It’s shaping up to be a great finish
Well, that’s one thing Brady does like a 40 year old…run
Pederson with the ultimate troll.
Right?
Brady lawn chaired
BB chooses to kick a FG on 4th and short inside the 5, Pederson pulls the gadget play out of his ass….
Welp. That’s what you do when you playin the pats. Take chances
yeah, Foles is a bit more athletic than Brady.
A bit
Lions might fire Patercia during half time
It sucks that Pederson is in our division
I’m more worried about Jay being in the division
That too
Pardon me while I hire a hire a forklift to move Pederson’s balls.
That’s a SB winning call right there
Not liking this
Lol
Foles MVP
Wow. Fuckn wow
That’s not balls….
That’s a God damn potato sack!
Philly playing clutch sideline to field. Wow.
LOLOLOLOLOL
OMG what play was that?
Woooooweeeeeee
showed ’em how it’s done…
Good no call
Yeah, after the replay, I agree
I like the aggression
No flag?
There was no pasz interference so why would there be a flag
Patricia’s defense is worthy of him getting a head coaching gig?
Yes. He’s a good coach.
This Clemenns/Clements kid gives zero fucks
Sproles may be expendable.
What the fuck kinda tackling was that?
Tackle anyone?
Foles the next $30 million per year man
Who is that guy? He just trucked a safety.
Nice execution
TY.
– Texas
The tackling has been less than stellar tonight
I think that’s a catch and a football move and a fumble.
Pats get the ball 1st 2nd half. Eagles need to score before half to keep pace.
WTF is Persil? I thought this was a Tide game.
call the Bud KNight Dilly Dilly
Persuck
Goddammit Gostowski. You potentially cost me another $125
Turbo fail
BOOOOOO Never using Australia.com, totally fell for that.
I love Danny BcBride. I’m in.
Turbo chop
Kicker just clocked the ball carrier
Damn – angry kciker
Chip Lohmiller would’ve made that
“Laces out DAN” !
They’re already typing up Gostkowski’s pink slip in Foxboro.
These Special Teams are ummm Special
Three missed kicks in a dome.
Turbo fan
lol… that air vent sucks!
what the fuck, haha
Doink
wtf
hell of a half so far…pretty fun to watch.
Great run
Breaking tackles… I remember that shit.
Shit
Alright
This is a good game
Ooooooo
Nice throw
Dropped a dime.
Game starting to drag for me now
Envious of this Eagles defense.
Another 7 Eleven in Philly go up in flames.

Shut up! – NoVaMike
ha ha ha
Slow
foles is out throwing TB at this point .
Alex Smith has never lost a Super Bowl!
Uh….neither has KC
Surprised Michelob Ultra went with the “What is your name, Bud?” line. Risky move there.
Alshon Jeffery, a former Gamecock, having the game of his life. I told you their defense is strong and so is a rushing attack that’s why I figured 37 to 19 or 39 to 17 or whatever I predicted earlier today
I didn’t see your prediction earlier 🙁
no you didn’t . never happened
Lmao, i did
LOL
Pederson got it going on. dialed in like mofo
Pederson chasing points early…might not end up mattering, but not the best thing to do at this point.
Pringles commercial = meh
The bigger the lead the worse it’s gonna hurt when NE comes back to stomp them in the 2nd half.
-Matty Ice
Blount going to ruffle BB’s hair?
Gonna knock him out during the post-game handshakes.
Philly is going to be destroyed after this game, win or lose.
It’s gonna be really tough to win our division in the next decade

Meh
That OLine opened all the holes
Beatdown
What A catch
Gilmore can’t be happy.
Think Jeffery will get a LTD after this game?
Already did
He already did
DJax catch
What. A. Catch.
NE needs to throw out the playbook and get out the shivs
That’s how you beat a team full of future felons
Someone resurrect Hernandez
I want to see Sudfeld in this game, goddamnit.
4th qtr
Good luck. Foles is playing great.
haha
lol
hmhm
Until then
Even Nate’s mom doesn’t want to see him in this game.
Hopper making some coin from Tide.
Next year, I want the halftime show to be 20 minutes of Eddie Van Halen shredding on his own.
Tide throwback = Win great job
Last commercial …. just Wow
Not sure what was happening there. Couldn’t watch.
Fail
Keerist that girl is skinny
They let the shit birds prison yard football get in their heads
Old guy’s throwing ducks.
Brady is throwing like shit.
Yup
ASmith can catch that

Brady will not be making the switch to WR.
Giselle was right, her husband can’t catch.
Good one.

Lol
Awww
That was there.
wow
I’m starting to think Tom retires after this year.
There’s only so much you can say about people that brand themselves
I liked the avocados commercial more at the end than the start
Rocket Mortgage = win
Philly secondary getting shredded
No more Cooks .
The pats seems to get better after shit like that
I wish Norman had……
Flag that punk
It’s still football. You better be aware of your surroundings.
Brady jacked
Little too much dancin’, Branden.
Shitty hit
Yeah, but don’t run in circles.
Cooks got cooked
I see what you did there.
damn
KO’d
Whether Tom Cruise is digitally or actually being made to look 30 years old, its too creepy for me.
He uses the TB12 method.
He’s 15 years older than brady, and looks 10 years younger
Everything about Tom Cruise is creepy.

DJ Nana commercial = win
Dilly Dilly!
Dilly Dilly!
If Foles is under contract next year, you might see him get traded rather than put back on the bench.
Is Foles a FA after this game?
Negative
Philly’s gonna trade him after the game.
They still have suds correct?
yep
Surprised BB didn’t go for it on 4th.
That ST coach sucks.
– Ben Kotwica
I bet it pisses him off.
Brady needs to yell on the sidelines now for effect.
3rd Q
Get the ball
Nice.
-Kotwica
wtf was that
Doink
Holy shit
Face full’a crotch.
I saw Joe Washington try to do that to Too Tall Jones, same result.
Hahaha lol
Teabag fail
Drive through the defender man
Hurdle = fail
There will be a Tide ad throwback later, good play
They need good ads to balance bad press regarding tide pods being eaten by idiots.
Eat a tide pod kids
Tide ad = clever
Wish they showed them yummy tide pods.
Ahahaha brilliant 7-up or Sprite commercial to pair with Tyrion, I don’t remember the product
Pepsi brands
James White and Dion Lewis , two guys you would never even know about if they were on another team.
Tyrion commercial = win
Not much defense so far. I expect both of these defenses to adjust though
He just fell down.
– Portis
God, I’d forgotten that play Tyrion!!!!!

Re Skins RB: Marshall will thrive in Gruden’s offense. He’s basically a Wr masking as a Rb
He looked awful running the ball in preseason and I’d be surprised if he ever sees the field in an NFL game. I have no issue with being wrong though
He’s probably still that 4.2 speedster after ripping his patellar tendon.
I had no idea Shawshank Redemption was a Stephen King story until now.
Go find a sewer
Not sure there is one near this hotel we’re wintering in.
I need the eagles limited to two safeties
Close out the scoring for the 1st quarter right now = $125
I’m wondering what square board you got on where you could buy all the threes.
I bought 8 squares and ran the Pats with 3
Yeah, I remember you posted it.
Now I had no control over the number I drew. I just like owning a column or row.
Yipeee!
Ram commercial = meh
Anticlimactic
They should’ve run over a Philly fan.
MOPAR
Why is NE def cord up for a head coaching job again?
Eagles came out showing zero jitters. Until that XP.
Getting straight w Vegas
He’ll of a catch
Eagles carry 4 RB’s , all of whom are better than Rob Kelly or Perine
Everybody’s better than our backs
every single one of them are better
Think have some sleeper in Bibs and Marshall
I appreciate your optimism .
Marshall has been terrible since he got injured his sophomore year of college. He will never amount to anything. Bibbs maybe
My Lord.
That was a hell of a play
Damnit
Dayum
wowwwww
WOW
Wow
Skins will run a lot more RPOs next season
let’s see if Patricia has made any adjustments
Nope
Horrible pass by Brady. Should have been a touchdown
Dude is not clutch at all.
Lawn chair
Lmao. if he could only take the team on his back
He’s old, and it’s cold…..wait?
Climate controlled dude lol
TB12 Method.
Dude is as fit as a Navy SEAL.
It’s a thing from the NE vs. Jax game.
Fullback?
Solo
Sprint commercial = win
No more scores!!!!! – Austin
Philly picked up where they left off vs Minny. Nice drive if only a FG.
Awkward….
first drives often don’t mean anything, however, I’m afraid my prediction may be true. The Eagles defense and rushing attack is strong.
Let’s see how it goes after they finish the 15 plays.
I think my prediction was something like 35 to 17 or
That Ertz
That Pat was mugged, lol
Yes he was
Yawning my ass off already
Trade Wentz
Zing
And he converts
someone has a prop bet on a pick 6 for the first play I bet.
Nick Polesmoker
Foles on deck
Fumble!

That commercial could have just “sailed on down the line” and it’d have been fine with me.
Hello.
Ik, you liked it.
Ameritrade…funny
Lionel Ritchie commercial = win
Okay, hopefully everyone remembers what country the game is being played in.
It’s being played in the global economy

OMG kid in the glasses in the back is adorable
Amazed that Redskins nominee Nick Sundberg wasn’t NFL’s man of the year.
Money talks
Also, being a player that people other than hardcore fans of your own franchise have ever heard of is important.
Girl power commercial – loved it. No idea what they were selling.
Yeah baby, go Johnny go
I will never root for the Eagles Giants or Cowboys. I only recently started pulling for the Cardinals
TO commercial… meh
Zero character
USBank commercial = fail
“not secured”
“Rob Gronkowski, Worcester youthful offender faculty”
Al Michael’s….wrong
Go Pats
Choice of music says it all
Thick eagles cheerleaders
Punks
Last chance to get your predictions in – for the next half hour until kickoff
Donnie Bag-o-Bones Jones
That building is crazy
Love those trusses.
I bet the field is about 20 feet below ground
Red Sparrow commercial is the funniest so far.
Hi all.
Good night all. It’s 11PM in the UK and I’m not interested in staying up to watch a game that will be largely annoying and unsatisfying no matter the result.
Peace
Cheerio.

Someone hacking the Super Bowl signal?
It wasn’t me.
That woman does not look comfortable in that outfit.
LEGS bro .
She did not choose that dress.
Does she know how to use them?
I only have my imagination
Riggins
I saw that 🙂
Ooops. Marcus
I was waiting, you know how those mutha’s do.
uh Rick, Las Vegas has never hosted a Super Bowl
They will
Lots
so Veterans’ group ads got rejected but we can have Scientology cult commercials
smh
Must have been local
Fuck the NFL and Goodell for that.
Respect to the old timer iggles fan, but….no
If I plan my nap right, I’ll sleep through halftime and wake up just in time to see the shitbirds lose on their last drive.
Somebody drank too much, early.
My nap may be ignoring my plans today.
Looks like the old Mattsoundworld avatar with color added.
Altered Carbon on Netflix…good show so far. Science Fiction btw.
Arizona, at U of Phoenix Stadium, is an excellent venue. Natural turf, indoors. (Not that I’m a fan on indoors football, but I get it for a SB.)
Bunch of thin skinned bastids at the NFL offices! Bring back the ‘Ice Bowl’.
The movie Extortion, the doctor continually makes stupid moves, I’m amazed at his lack of common sense.
A man should never where a fur coat.
Unless he’s living in the Arctic or really cold ass wilderness.

Well Walmart has shit gear but I’ll go along with “a creditable outfitter”.

If the Eagles win, we will no longer be able to hold the “no Super Bowl card” over their fans’ heads.
I also think a Super Bowl in Tennessee would be good…Nashville and Memphis are great.
New Orleans
Miami
Houston
Dallas
L.A.
LasVegas
….those are the only cities that should have Super Bowls.
Jacksonville?
Tampa?
Phoenix?
Oh yeah…Tampa….not Jacksonville…they don’t have the infrastructure and everything closes up early.
Houston?
No thank you. That place is a carcinogenic cesspool.
I think the Eagles could actually blow out the Patriots…They’ve got good pressure up front. Having said that….Patriots 27 Eagles 23.
Added to the list!
I don’t care if the game is indoors….no more cold weather cities for the SuperBowl.
What’s your prediction?

Yup
Spoken like a curmudgeon
People in Minny be like..

Should be in New Orleans every year. Great party city, pretty warm, and you can walk from the hotels to the Super Dome to the French Quarter, or take the street car from Uptown.
Quenton makes it to #17, so there is hope:
Round 1 Pick 17 (LAC): Quenton Nelson, OG, Notre Dame (A)
Round 2 Pick 12: Harrison Phillips, DT, Stanford (B)
Round 2 Pick 16 (LAC): Malik Jefferson, ILB, Texas (A-)
Round 4 Pick 13: Luke Falk, QB, Washington State (A+)
Round 5 Pick 12: Poona Ford, DT, Texas (A)
Round 6 Pick 14: Deatrick Nichols, CB, South Florida (A+)
Round 7 Pick 13: Richie James, WR, Middle Tennessee (A+)
Round 7 Pick 23: Bryce Bobo, WR, Colorado (A+)
It’s currently 4 degrees in Minny. Rough tailgatin’…

Sad. RIP.
ESPN reporting both Belichick and Brady could retire after tonight’s game. Do they have like have no fucking integrity and just report any made up BS they can think of. It’s pretty fucking pathetic.
They should also report that Justin Timberlake could retire after halftime, and that Trump could resign in the 3rd quarter.
Brady, Belichick, Goodell suicide pact.
If that happens the Niners are going to have to go down the Cousins path with Garropolo
Put me down for the meteor strike@ the 2:00 min. warning before halftime.
No, not particularly ready for that…
Quenton Nelson High School Video preparing for Notre Dame:

love this kid….fingers crossed he’s there at 13…he’s mean…we need more mean on this ol…
Yeah, but I’m not counting on it. But then again, I thought there was no way that J. Allen would be there at #17 last year, so there’s a glimmer of hope.
SB 2019: McVay’s Rams vs Cousins’ Broncos. Book it.
^anklepants for you
Kirk will never make it past round 1 of the playoffs, if he even makes it that far.
TBH, he does not seem to handle pressure well, see our record of win and in games and how he performed. I think the pressure of the Super Bowl would bee too much for him
He overthinks situations, often to his detriment.
I think he’ll be fine if he has plenty of talent around him. Not if he has to put it on his shoulders.
Denver doesn’t have plenty of talent.
Amazing how fast btg changes his tune, right? lol
I’m a fan of the Redskins.
Wear the laundry and I like you…circa back to 2008, when I PUBLICLY wanted NOTHING to do with malcolm kelly…then we drafted him…and I hoped like heck that he had a great career…
Once you’re done here, and you leave I continue to be a fan of the Redskins….theres simply no other team I root for
Denver won 5 games and once they pay Cousins will have no money to fix their awful o-line.
Kelli, could not disagree with you more about Mass being terrible from a sports perspective. Unless you’re not a fan of the local teams. If you are, then you’re looking at your 11th Championship parade since 2001, pats 6 times, sox 3 times, celtics once soon to be twice, and the Bruins once.
Titletown
I’ve been there. seen the women playing tennis at Harvard. Or MIT. I don’t remember. It was awful. Terrible sports town.
ha…
Yeah – you may not have realized, but I’m a Washington-area fan. I was up there when all four teams won, it was sickening.
Go Saux! (And Nats)
TB12 looking like the world’s biggest d-bag in his pop-collared overcoat, muffler, and shades.
the clothing has nothign to do with him being the biggest most self absorbed, two faced dbag on the planet
it adds to it, but the dbagism is bone deep
Had to pick up my daughters w2 from her work yesterday, there was a guy there, musta been 6’4, right around 3 bills, older cat, had on what had to have been an xxxxl reggie white iggles jersey, and an iggles hat…i walked past him and said good for you….
So far we have a 50-50 even split…
Picking New England
Austin: NE 33-24
Kelly: NE 31-17
Kon: NE 34-13
NPI: NE 56-0
BC: NE 23-20
Picking Philly
BttgodBruce: PHI 30-28
HTTRQGC: PHI 29-27
Lbsand: PHI 26-24
Mike5790: PHI 27-9
WHY3: PHI 28-20
put me down for a philly win, followed by the city burning down.
Phlly 24
NE – 21
Both cities?
Thus making way for the new Amazon Headquarters, which will also burn to the ground.
I’ll break it: NE 41-17.
You just tied it up again 😀
doh
Just for grins, love to see Suds get a Super Bowl ring before Shmirk.
what kinda guns you cleaning earlier? anything fun?
Mostly long guns, greg. .260 Rem, 6mm Rem, .30-30 Win (Mdl. 94, 1926), Rem. 700 ADL in .308, Marlin .444, 3 rimfires including a .17 Mach II, Rem 870 12 ga., Ithaca 16 ga., Parker 28 ga., couple handguns. I’ve cut down a little.
Is the .17 a bull barrel?
Yeah bc, it’s oversized. That thing is amazing, you can shoot flies with it at 50 yds. 4X scope, fun as shit.
I’m okay with you shooting flies, as long as you eat what you kill. 😉
^ They’re easy to field dress, at least!
Damn straight. I once owned a Marlin bolt action with the heavy barrel. Groundhog getter.
I like the 444 too, bunker buster.
^ Yeah, I gotta have one of those ‘show stoppers’ on hand! The rounds alone are attention getting.
It was a 1895 .45-70 for me.
^ Nice!! That’ll do it, what a classic.
got a place to shoot local to you? how ‘s that 3030, must buck like a mule
No place real close. I shoot at my borther in law’s out near Martinsburg, 2 hours away. I have a camp in north-central PA where I shoot a lot…but its 300 miles. I spend a lot of time there though, fishing and hunting and hiking.
smallie and trout aplenty i bet…
keep a couple trout for dinner….
Yes, you nailed it. Excellent trout a smallmouth waters everywhere.
awesome…enjoy….you retired?
Yes, I retired from a county gov in 2011. I spend ~70 days a year up there since. Nearest ‘neighbor’ is 1.5 miles away, down in the hollow.
The 30-30 is so cool, it was my Dad’s. Carbine type model with the short tube magazine. Shoots very well, does wake you up. It’s my go-to deer brush gun. Redfield peep sight.
A Ranger?
It’s definitely made for a saddle scabbard. Still has the lashing ring on the receiver, or should I saw I still have it. I took it off, was noisy.
Eagles, 1000 times Eagles
Pats fans are whiny, self absorbed, insecure brats, who think football was invented in 2001, that the NFL is constantly conspiring to take them down…i for one, cannot wait for TB to retire, that franchise to go back to mediocrity, and within 5 years of sustained suckitude, Jonathan Kraft to move the team elsewhere……..
It’ll happen, two guys…….
Eagles fans are worse. I wish nothing but misery on those awful people.
come live up here for the shortest amount of time
you’ll change your mind.
Massachusetts was a terrible, terrible place to live from a sports perspective.
I’ve got a good friend who is an out of control Pats fan, but with good reason. If him not mistaken, his dad, Daryl Johnson was the first black player to be drafted by the Pats in the 1960s.
Got that wrong about being the first:

I want to use my smoker but it’s fucking raining I hate this shit.
Put it in the bathroom tub. Take the exhaust hose from your dryer, tape it to your smoker’s lid, hang it out the window.
Get to smoking.
Worst thing that will happen is that for the next couple weeks, trips to the bathroom will get you wanting some smoked meats.
LOL
Don’t do that, you’ll miss the game.
I don’t think that’s worst thing that could happen. But then again I’ve been known to roast brats over coals in my woodstove so what the heck.

from last thread
you want to know who is as prejudiced as southern middle class white people, northern middle class white people
esp. people from Pittsburgh, Boston and Philly
anyone who doesn’t benefit from a new “group” competing for their and their children’s space, resources (like schools), and jobs is going to generally have a problem with that other
those who benefit more from the cheap labor than any real competition, less so
but tribalism is deep within us all, even on the order of 75 to 200 ish people, once threshold reached, we’ll find a way to create the Other and form tribes
Eagles 27
Patriots 9
Brady doesn’t finish the game.
Kill the head. The body dies.
Added to the sheet!
Hit’n the hard stuff early eh
LOL not likely.

Nate Sudfeld Super Bowl MVP. What would your reaction be?
a. Happy for the kid
b. NSFTG
A. If he throws a fade for a TD
I’d dispatch the contents of my stomach. But in a sink or toilet, Not someone’s front door.
Thanks, Steve & Crew for all the work!
I dread the annual task of converting the prior year salary cap projection to the current year offseason chart. It takes the better part of a full day. At least it’s done.
LOL, ‘Stay classy, if possible.’
