Amazing comeback!

After Julio Jones made that ridiculous catch on the sideline to put the Falcons in field goal range, I just kept thinking over and over again HALFBACK DIVE HALFBACK DIVE HALFBACK DIVE. All the Falcons had to do was kick a field goal to go up 11, and it's probably game over.

Insane game, incredible game. There's no doubt anymore, if there ever was: Belichick is the greatest coach of all time, Brady is greatest QB of all time, and their run together represents the greatest dynasty in NFL history. **** both of them. **** that organization. And they're the best, they've played the best football we've ever seen and there is no one throughout NFL history who even comes close.

I agree with all of this. Hope Shanny learned from this. He's going to be our next head coach and I can't be dealing with that kind of dumb sh*t.

At the point of the game where The Pats were down 28-3 the odds of a comeback were 0.3%. Brady throws for 466 yards in a Super Bowl? And for 247 of them in the 4th quarter and OT? Just ridiculous. Once the Falcon secondary started getting flagged a lot for holds you knew they were gassing out so Brady just lit them up.

As a long time Patriots fan I was so worn out, a bit drunk, I went to bed pretty early and then 2:00 AM the morning I woke right up wonder if it had all been a dream? I mean, who comes back from a 25 point deficit so late in a Super Bowl against one of the two best teams in the league?

I had to turn the TV on just to be sure.

How the fuck do you calculate that?

Superbowl was a good game, but it's incredibly disappointing that the Falcons didn't take it. Not to mention the fact that the Patriots got an undeserved touchdown. Falcons deserved the win.

Bookies lol. Lots of variables.

0.3% is about 333/1.
