Its that all too common situation in the NFL where a team overpays for a player based on a small sample size and unusual situations. The Eagles TEAM was fantastic and Foles was put into a situation to be successful. If you put Foles on the Browns he isnt going to look much different that what they are used to.

Congrats to the Eagles and to the classy Eagle fans out there. To the idiot Eagle fans you didnt deserve this outcome.

Thomkal · 02-04-2018, 10:58 PM

Was a great game offensively, not so much defensively, so I probably would not rate it as one of the top Super Bowls of all time. On the other hand the Patriots lost...

Fun, frustrating game, but I'm happy for all the Eagles fans I've met over the years and my mother's side of the family from Philadelphia who tried to get me into the Eagles when I was kid.

Carman Bulldog · 02-04-2018, 11:26 PM

So WTF is the Malcolm Butler story? Apparently he said "They gave up on me. F—. It is what it is,” to Mike Reiss and Adam Schefter after the game. And apparently Belichek said it’s not a disciplinary action.

Odd time to send some sort of message.

Julio Riddols · 02-04-2018, 11:27 PM

The Tide ads were some of the most genius marketing of all time. Legit made every ad a Tide ad. We watched for dirty clothes in subsequent commercials and there were remarkably few. One of the best ads I've seen.

The ads that seemed to be flaunting charity pissed me off. Don't bullshit me with common courtesy and pass it off as a great sacrifice for your fellow man.

molson · 02-04-2018, 11:28 PM

Patriots apparently first team ever, in any game, to put up 600 yards of offense and lose.

Yeah, this was super odd to me. I am finding it hard to believe we know the whole story right now, but then again my brain can't figure out what/where it could conceivably go from here.

bhlloy · 02-04-2018, 11:55 PM

PFF isn't the be all and end all, but they had Butler as a pretty average CB and Rowe as one of the worst in the league. When you give up 375 yards and 3 TD's to Nick Foles, maybe the Patriots just out Patriot-ed themselves on this one. You can understand why he's not happy about it.

So will this be remembered as what happens when two great offenses go at it or the most defense-less game ever? Looking at stats, it seems like a pro bowl.

PilotMan · 02-05-2018, 03:47 AM

I really wish that Wentz had been able to play, but he still gets a ring, which is awesome. Very happy with the Eagles win.

stevew · 02-05-2018, 04:40 AM

Kevin Harlan and Boomer Esiason on the radio is like AIDS for your ears. Literally Harlan is the fucking worst. And Boomer doesn't even say anything what he talks. The only highlight of the radio broadcast was that they would occasionally ask Mike Holmgren for an opinion or a take and he was pretty good

This is the same coach who benched Wes Welker for the start of a playoff game. If the benching was for disciplinary reasons, he gets credit from me. If the rules are the rules, he has to bench him

CrimsonFox · 02-05-2018, 08:50 AM

I couldn't bear to watch something I cared about that little and a franchise with people that are ruining the casual football market. I did not watch because the Pats were in it. So glad they lost but I'm afraid they'll never go away

Buccaneer · 02-05-2018, 10:24 AM

From about week 5 onwards, I’ve believed that the Eagles were the best team in the NFL and the playoffs and Super Bowl proved it. When Carson went down, the experts inexplicably dropped them from 1 to 4, even behind Minnesota. They were the best in the NFC all season long, with the Pats the best in the AFC, and I think everyone agreed that the NFCwas clearly better than the AFC (and will likely be for years to come).

jeff061 · 02-05-2018, 11:08 AM

Congrats to Eagles fans. It was like watching the Pats play themselves, well deserved and a great game.

Vince, Pt. II · 02-05-2018, 11:20 AM

I was extremely impressed with Doug Pederson; I'm not sure how much of that was the fact that the Eagles were successful on all those 4th down "gambles," but my short-term memory is telling me I liked the calls before they were successful.

I don't catch a lot of Eagles games; has he been highly regarded for a while? In very early hindsight this seemed like an extremely well coached/gameplanned/executed game by the Eagles.

molson · 02-05-2018, 11:24 AM

I was dreading them going for it on 4th every time, because I knew it was the right call and I knew they'd probably get it. I've seen teams lose to the Patriots who weren't being nearly aggressive enough.

And I think it's the statistically correct call most times. You just need a coach willing to pull the trigger.

miami_fan · 02-05-2018, 11:58 AM

I did not get a chance to listen to most of the NFL podcasts that I usually listen to last week. I have spent most of the morning listening back to what people thought may happen. Nick Foles may have topped Tony Eason as the least respected Super Bowl OB in the run up to the game that I can remember.

AlexB · 02-05-2018, 12:36 PM

Great game, terrible logo (looked more like LIII than LII)

I remember some rumblings at the beginning of the year that he was over his head and might not be the right guy for the job. I am glad to see him silence all of his critics. He called a great game and has done so all year.

I kept wondering why she wants the 500.

larrymcg421 · 02-05-2018, 04:43 PM

The first 4th down call was riskier. The second one seems definitely the right call since worst case scenario is Pats go up by 8 and Eagles still have a shot.

Seriously one of the better called games I have seen in the Superbowl from an offensive standpoint. Patricia does not get outcoached much, and even when his defenses struggle early he is adept at making adjustments. He was given a clinic yesterday.

Not sure of your source but this article has an explanation for the missed flight.

Maybe they were actually lying earlier in the week.

That sounds like cover frankly. The scuttle hinges on a divided locker room and his emotion pregame just fuels that.

More interestingly, perhaps, is that the 7% decline is very much in line with the 8% dropoff for the conference championships and the 9% drop in the regular season overall.

Those of us who are gone are, well, gone. And neither commercials nor halftime shows change that.

Here's to a continued steady decline.

That's one of those "shows" that's really hard to get true numbers for. So many parties and groups watching together. I know a bunch of the "never watching NFL again" snowflakes who had their panties in a bunch over the anthem protests who were the first people to ask about going to a party or having their own parties for it (not just Eagles fans but other fans as well).

It's going to be down as the number of options continue to grow and may be harder to get true numbers as the options for viewing it continue to expand.

Makes you wonder why the NFL rigs all these games for the Patriots, as I've been reading here for years.

A few factors:

The NFL is still doing great. We had just gotten used to it doing greater than great. A reversion to "like other highly rated television" maybe does not need much explanation.

My sense is that the concussion stuff is starting to seep through to the more casual fans. Fans like us have come to peace with it, but I think that the ones most likely to peel off might have started to do that.

I'd really like to see the breakdown by age. Kids today have a lot more entertainment options and are not used to "plop down in front of a non-interactive screen for three hours" as something they want to do. How do the ratings look for that 18-25 yo demographic? Are millennials killing football, too

?

Despite my prediction that it would not matter, the police brutality protests do seem to have turned off some fans. Much like with the concussion fans, I don't see those coming back.

jbergey22 · 02-06-2018, 11:05 AM

Im certainly not the pulse of the entire country but an overwhelming response from people I got that werent going to watch the super bowl were similar to this "Im not going to watch them overpaid assholes shit on our country." I think the decline is directly related to the kneeling problem. A lot of very proud veterans that were previously NFL fans finally said enough is enough.

Edward64 · 02-06-2018, 11:54 AM

I'm in the anti-Kapernick, spoiled multi-millionaire ingrate camp and was turned off by the others that copied him. This country, warts and all, is still one of the best places for opportunity and bettering your place in life.

Although initially turned off, I did start watching NFL games again because the protesting has for the most part stopped.

I think the decline is directly related to the kneeling problem. A lot of very proud veterans that were previously NFL fans finally said enough is enough.

Edward64 Head Coach Join Date: Oct 2005	I'm in the anti-Kapernick, spoiled multi-millionaire ingrate camp and was turned off by the others that copied him. This country, warts and all, is still one of the best places for opportunity and bettering your place in life. Although initially turned off, I did start watching NFL games again because the protesting has for the most part stopped.
