I gotta be honest, as I come down from this high. I'm pretty okay with the Patriots tapering off now. Let 'em go to the playoffs, block the teams that've won championships lately and the Dolphins and escort the unlucky teams to the Superbowl as Brady eases towards retirement. They've got every accolade. There are no more mountains to climb.

The Barstool building caught fire last night, apparently a small unimportant one. But this told me two things. 1) They're based out of New York. 2) Some company bought a majority stake in them for OVER TEN MILLION DOLLARS. What the christ.

Trying to collect some thoughts on the game: The 5 sacks per team. That was insane. Both offensive lines had played great all year, neither team had been able to bring pressure well, but this game was insane. (Yeah, the Falcons had brought pressure the last two games, but that was against the worst line in creation and a dead Packers offense, and both those lines lost a guy early in the game). Whereas the Patriots had spent all year rushing 3 guys and never touching the trashman of the week they were facing. Alex Mack's injury was probably bad enough that the Falcons felt they had to run outside all the time and it was super effective early but probably caused them massive problems in the second half once the Patriots' adjusted. I don't think they were willing to run inside at all due to his leg and it cost them. The Patriots' LB's were terrible in the first half, with Hightower getting beat constantly and the crap-hole of Shea McClellin and friends on the other side just getting worked by those toss sweeps. But in the second half they benched Shea for Van Noy and just killed the plays the Falcons tried. That drive near the end where the Falcons returner is a dumbass and runs the ball out to like the 10 then Matt Ryan moves them into FG range in like 2 plays was insane. I immediately switched into "well, at least they put up a good fight" mode and then the Falcons made such incredible blunders. I wasn't surprised Blount was stuffed repeatedly. He's not as good as his reputation and gets the vast majority of his success working over beaten teams. I had predicted Dion Lewis would be the source of the Pats' rushing success but instead they ... just really didn't have much success running. Falcons' defense played great in the first half and shut that poo poo down. A big Blount game would've needed the Patriots to be up two scores in the 2nd half and just running over a tired Falcons' defense. The Falcons were just godawful on 3rd down, I posted this earlier, but it bears repeating: That offense was absolutely incredible on first down and great on second down and turned into Brock Osweiler on 3rd down. I can't talk much about the Patriots passing offense. Everything that went wrong possible went wrong in the first half and Brady just went off in the second half. Hell, they punted on their first drive, but Brady hit two receivers in the hands in stride on both plays for big games but they were dropped. Makes up for the batted passes that could've been intercepted in the end.

Matt Ryan by down: 1st down: 10/10, 171 yards 2nd down: 6/8, 94 yards, 1 sack 3rd down: 1/4, 19 yards, 4 sacks, lost fumble. The DVOA for that game is pretty nuts: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/dvoa-ratings/2017/super-bowl-li-dvoaquick-reads The Falcons being so horrific on 3rd down breaks the formula.

Football nerdist poo poo nobody pays attention to because we just posting ____ is shook: One of the punt returns the Patriots tried a trick play that no one mentioned, which is why they ended up with pretty bad field position, but it would've probably been a touchdown if the gunner didn't play it great: https://twitter.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/828429392347070464

dphi posted:I wonder how often teams try that play but it just goes unnoticed when it doesn't work. Every time a team pulls it off I wonder why I don't see it more (I know it's very situational, but still), but maybe it's just that you don't always see the guy faking the catch since the camera dudes are usually faked out and it's not discussed if it doesn't result in a big return. yeah I mean, I thought the return looked weird, but they didn't even show a replay, so I just figured the punter had made a great kick and Edelman fair caught it at the sideline for no discernible reason. Then this pops up and I'm like, oh I didn't even see Edelman go the other way... ohhhh

Scott Kaczmar:quote:I looked at offenses with a 6- to 8-point lead in the final five minutes of the fourth quarter and a first down inside the opponent 30. That is the margin and field position where a team should be expected to make it a two-score game with at least a field goal. Any game where the first-down play was a kneeldown was excluded. Since 2000, these teams were 221-3 (.987), so Atlanta is in the rarest company with this loss. I did not have time to check 224 games to see how often the team extended to a two-score lead versus how often the defense just held up, but the previous three losses show Atlanta's offensive failure to be the worst of them all.

Many bad players end up with superbowl rings due to being in the right place // right time. For example, Peyton Manning got a Superbowl ring last year.

They all get rings, of course, but do they get counted when people do "super bowl champions" if they're inactive/practice squad? You don't get the flagging on like pro-football-reference for example (http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/N/NixoTa00.htm) but I mean, you've got the jersey and the ring, I know I'd call myself Superbowl Champion even if my contribution was limited to pretending to be half of Julio Jones in practice.
