37 years old and carrying his team to the Superbowl with 400 yards and a 74% completion rate against his greatest foe. That was simply a masterful performance.
Kudos for getting it done and throwing int to swing it in favor of Belichick.
As far as Brady vs Peyton. I believe they are now 2-2 in head to head AFC title games.
Regardless of what the pats did this year. The team they fielded yesterday was a mere shadow of a good pats team.
Manning just TCB. That's all.
Seattle will be an issue. Let's see.
The Patriots had 3 points after 50 minutes had been played. He played great, but this was total team domination, not an example of a great player "carrying his team" to victory. (Which takes nothing away from Manning. Teams win games, players don't).37 years old and carrying his team to the Superbowl with 400 yards and a 74% completion rate against his greatest foe.

Bah. There's no such thing as a big game turning on a fluke play. Either a great player made a great play, thereby proving his greatness, or a choking choker committed a horrible choke, thereby proving his chokiness. Or both. That's the only way big games are won and lost.If not for that fluke play last year vs Baltimore (that was such a duck by Flacco that the DB should have been able to fair catch it) Denver may very well have one it all last year.
I'd be happy to see him get another ring. First, let's end this "Eli has more rings" crap. Second, Denver's a cool part of the country. I lived there for 17 years and was there when they won their last 2 Super Bowls. I'd definitely rather see them get it than Seattle, a team that has shown problems keeping things sportsmanlike.

That's a pretty bold statement, .. can't agree with it being that cut and dried, .. that black and white.
I think there are fluke plays that games turn on.
Weird things happen in games all of the time, .. sometimes changing the outcome.
Do we (fumbled field goal snap) know it.
I guess I really needed to append a smiley or a "[/sarcasm]" to my post.That's a pretty bold statement, .. can't agree with it being that cut and dried, .. that black and white.

He would say that is a choker choking, proving his chokiness.
