OVER!!!!

Another definition of "gutsy" - "stupid is as stupid does".
I had a funny post from a friend about deflated balls. It has Tom Brady saying "of course I use under inflated balls, do you know hard it is throwing a full football with all these super bowl rings on?"....................hey, its hilarious up here in New England!!!

That's because it failed.
ESPN just ran some stats on the the play. Seems that Wilson has tried a pass from the 1 yard line over one hundred times with over a 60% completion rate and no interceptions. Maybe it wasn't such a bonehead call.
Just glad that NE did not lose again because of a ridiculous catch with less than a minute in the game.
Everyone is emphasizing the heartbreak of the Seahawks but I am sure that NE felt the same way after that catch.

Now looks like my team (The Falcons) may have been involved in some tricky business involving crowd noise. I always thought it was only cheating if you did something to help yourself. If it is to your detriment it should be given a pass. The Falcons cannot afford to lose any draft choices.

Dallas, Green Bay, Seattle.

Three of the toughest losses, ending on weird/controversial/amazing plays, that I can remember in a playoffs.

The Seahawks, with their Obamacare PSA players(Wilson and Sherman), $15 min. wage, 9/11 truther Head Coach, and loser fans can suck on it.

Hindsight is 20/20. Here are the two options given the clock and only one timeout. There was not two timeouts as everyone seems to think, and this can be confirmed by watching the final play on Youtube.

1. 3 plays..............one pass, then Marshawn Lynch, then Marshawn Lynch again

2. 2 plays..........Marshawn Lynn, then Marshawn Lynch

Who the hell, without the knowledge of hindsight, chooses two plays instead of three?


Reality is 100%. I believe Bill Parcells said that there are 3 things that can happen when you try a pass play, and two of them are bad. 1). Incompletion, 2). complete the pass and 3).throw an interception. We all know what happened. Game over. Pete Carroll steals defeat from the jaws of victory.

Well, you're completely wrong about this. They could have easily run it three times with one time out AND 28 SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

One Run. 7 Seconds. Time Out. Two Run 7 Seconds. Now You've got 15 Seconds to line up and run a third time. Lynch probably would have scored on the first one though.
