and no matter how many times you say this, it's still silly, it will never be true

I've thought about it 100 times and I don't know for the life of me how anyone could think giving the ball to anyone but Lynch was the right play. Tell the Pats they're giving it to him. Hell, announce it over the intercom. They hadn't stopped him all game and he just rushed for 3-4 to the one.

In all seriousness, what is your rational?

I will tell you the thought process of blind patriots fans.

They have zero objectivity. They wanna believe it's the greatness of the Patriots and can't possibly believe that another teams horrific mistake handed them a super bowl.

Of course rational, normal people,who know football, understand that the Pats caught a huge break that gave them the win. Blind patriot fans will give you all kinds of reasons why it was the Jedi mind trick of BB or some other nonsense because they don't live in reality.

The patriots are a great team with probably the greatest qb of all time....however, they do cheat and they got one silver platter super bowl trophy served up by the Seattle coaching staff.

Handed them the superbowl is excessive hyperbole. Even if Seattle made a mistake, you still have to capitalize on it. An INT in that spot is still a huge dog to happen no matter how boneheaded it is.

Not to mention Seattle even being at the 1 yard line was a total miracle gift based on the fluke Kearse catch. If Seattle won the game, now THAT would've been a gift. Seattle's decision to throw has gotten so much scrutiny that people totally forgot how they even got down to the 1 yard line.

This is how....

how can you axe me that question? I've explained it in detail throughout this thread my friend

from situational strategy, to matchups, to clock management

and the Pats stuffed Lynch in short yardage situations at least once in that game already.

if Lynch was running free, the Seahawks would never be trailing

Well, now that's really a stretch. It's not like NE had stopped them on that drive before the Kearse catch. What was that on 1st or 2nd down? They had time and weren't that far away anyway. To say they were only going to score because of that fluke play is also a stretch.

A great play by Butler that never should have been an option. Not a more dangerous play in a goal line situation. The back side George reverse from Coach Herman Boone was a better choice.

if we're going to start talking like that, then maybe we should be talking about how GB handed them the NFC championship












oh no I didn't

They were at the 38 with 1:15 left. So time not really an issue but still a dog to score a TD in that spot. It was on 1st down, it's incomplete then you go to 2nd.

I didn't say they were only going to score because of that play, just that is what set them up to be on the 5 yard line and it was an improbable play. Up there with Tyree.

And if Packer fans say that, then Cowboys fans say Dez had the TD, and if they say that then Lions fans say the PI call was bad.

And thus the world goes round and round.

They weren't trailing the entire 2H.

You said had Seattle won the game, it would've been a gift and that's just incorrect. Down four, on the 38 with 1:15 left. Teams score TDs in that position every weekend.

A bad call by a ref and an failed onside kick recovery denied Dallas and Green Bay a chance to advance......just as that horrific offensive call denied Seattle a super bowl win.

Yes had they won the game after the completion. As in once it happens, you can say "Seattle had a fluke catch to put them at the 5 yard line from the 38"

Do you realize how much your equity to win the game improves based on going from the 38 to the 5 on 1st down? You go from being an underdog to a massive favorite.

I never said they couldn't score a TD from the 38 but they would've been a dog to do so. Not like that offense is the '99 Rams or anything. NE held them down pretty well for most of the game and their big weapon (the run as you know) isn't really much of an option with 1:15 left at the 38.

He shouldn't have made it a day past the SB.

If you're in a profession and you make a decision that is quite possibly the worst decision ever made in your field and you lose the company money or whatever, you'd be fired that day.
i disagree

worst decision ever only because of the outcome

the only people that matter are the people who are willing to challenge conservative ideas to bring innovation to the table. you can never be great if you are afraid of failure.

And I love your heart but the math in that situation didn't add up. The percentages were not in their favor. It's like gambling, you have to take advantage of the edge.

If that play was successful.....it's still a stupid decision. But it failed and that makes more stupid.
