Great game. Happy for my cousins in Pennsylvania, particularly my 90 year old uncle. Typical Patriots nailbiter Super Bowl. Plenty of questions to be asked now, but it was still a great achievement for this squad to have even made this game with all our injuries. All you can ask is for a chance at the end. Tough loss, but the Eagles earned the win.

 Who were the 3 people who voted for Philly in the poll ?

#ReleaseTheMemo

3 more than who voted for them to start the year, but then again, they weren't even listed!

Back home now. The Malcolm Butler thing will be parsed, as will the D line play which was lacking. Add to that the FG unit, which, had they not **** up, would have had the game within a FG, not a TD.

Not one for the purists, but good entertainment nonetheless. Gotta let other teams win this thing from time to time :P

Good thing we kept hold of Jimmy G., eh?

My word, do they need to sort this catch rule out. Nobody knows WTF is going on. IMO, they should eliminate the automatic review. Give the refs more leeway and trust their call in the moment. The TD was a TD in real time, that should suffice. If a coach wants to challenge their judgement, throw a challenge flag. Video replay is a Pandora's Box in many ways. It can bog you down in minutia while ignoring basic flow of play. Ertz caught the ball, took 2 steps, crossed the plain, fumbled and recovered the ball. The Jesse James play against the Steelers would have been called a TD as well w/o the infuriating automatic review.

Hernandez used to murder people and still play .

I wonder what Butler did.

Silly. The team had no idea Hernandez was a killer until the suspicion of the Lloyd killing when he was told to GTFO of Foxboro.

Pats could be losing Butler, Gronk , the DC and OC .

The end is nigh .

Yep. Gronk seemed resigned to it after the game. Butler is definitely gone. Will we have the supporting cast to make another run with a 41 year old QB? Who **** knows, lol.

Apart from messing up the introduction of the WW2 veteran at the coin-toss, Gene Steratore called a bloody good game. We give the refs a bollocking at times but they were near flawless yesterday, and letting the players play is always a good thing.

Fantastic game. Despite being a neutral I found myself rooting for the Pats, well, Brady to be fair. I thought it was set for him to go down the field at the end and win it. He was immense. It was the Pats defence that lost it. 

Despite that I'm also pleased for the Eagles. They were the best team this season for a long time and although they initially stuttered when they lost Wentz, they came back hard in the play-offs despite being written off. A great story for Foles.

505 yards, 3 TDs and 0 interceptions and still lost. Pretty incredible. That strip-sack was huuuuge
