I still have my "Squeeze the Cheese" shirt from the '96 Super Bowl. Really hoping I get a chance to break it out.

Damn, to be honest I'm watching SEA vs GB, if GB loses this, they totally deserve it, none of these teams seem so scary, imo. As long as Brady can keep his cool, he should be able to score a bunch of points on either of these teams and Pats D, just need to force Wilson to throw it, the guy is nothing special.
Good assessment:

This GB/Seattle game is a total ****. Neither team deserves to win it.

That was a Toronto Maple Leafs-esque collapse by Green Bay. Humiliating loss.

Both teams are trash, if Pats win here, this is by far, Brady's best chance to win the 4th ring. I don't think he'll get a better chance than this. Even their corner with the big mouth is injured, playing with 1 hand. All Pats need to do is stop Lynch, and they got it easy, that's IF THEY get to the Super Bowl.

That NFC game was a trip. From 16-0, to an OT win.

Yea that was just a bad choice overall. Gronk had a guy all over him and if Brady threw it any further ahead of him it was gonna get picked off.

How was Blount not an option to punch that in? He kills them.

I'm so glad we made it to another Superbowl. Really proud of our squad, especially Blount and Edelman, and Brady is just an immense, undeniable legend of the game having reached another.

Last two Superbowls were traumatic for me, so I'm just looking forward to a great game where we play hard. Seahawks are a great team and will bring their A game after today.

So proud to be from New England tonight.
YOU LOSE

Well that thing should have been stopped by the ring doctor that was just ridiculous. Chuck Pagano seems like a really nice guy but how does that happen? Maybe the team just felt getting to the AFC title game was their step in the progression and didn't really feel like they had a shot.

I watched that GB vs SEA debacle as well. My hope is that SEA is that bad on offense that a good defensive effort can really screw them up on offense. But their D stood in there on the goal line that whole first half and stuffed GB. I don't think Aaron Rodgers just started sucking in the red zone so that D is legit.

I hope Bill has a scheme for them but my sense is that SEA plays it more like SF where it is here my 11 guys do whatever you want.

Return to New England Patriots
