Puck wrote:Luck had nothing to do with Brady's performance. It had a lot to do with Edelmann's catch off a Falcon leg, but that was impressive focus nonetheless. In the end, it's a "game of inches": Matt Ryan's arm was just about to move forward on the fumble play, and the last 2-pt conversion made it across the plane by about 10cm. Close, but no cigar, Atlanta.
I wonder if they fall like this year's Carolina next season?
The Patriot's "luck" was in a few of the bounces, and decisions made by Atlanta.
Edelmann's catch was brilliant. There was luck in the bounce that kept it out of the dirt.
The Falcons had the Pats on the ropes. Brady was getting hammered. Then they backed off and went into a prevent setup. All it did was prevent them from winning. Brady suddenly had time and literally picked them apart, which he will do every time given that opportunity. The pass interference to end it all was just a terrible break for the Falcons, a legit call, but just bad timing for that decision by the safety.

Tell me about it!
I once actually fell asleep watching the Iowa State cyclones. At the stadium! Live!
Seriously. They play for like ten seconds. Then the refs bring out the tape measure, half the players leave the field. New players jog on slowly. Some one is carried out on a stretcher. Five minutes later they start playing again - for another ten seconds.
Some people compare it to chess. And I guess from a spectator's viewpoint there could be some truth in it.
I mean, I know chess. Fun to play, really boring to watch.

Heh... I thought it was fairly compelling! It's one thing when the score is low and both offenses are terrible, it's another when it's due to great defense.
If football is boring, how do you make it through a baseball game? (that question may not apply to you, Per)

They've been testing for quite a while now. Have they released a beta version yet?

TE Rob Gronkowski announces his retirement!
The slow demise of the New England Patriots begins after years and years of dominance.
