The Seahawks chose to throw the ball from the two yard line
The Falcons refused to run it on 3rd and 1 (resulted in a fumble), and with 4 minutes left they chose to drop back instead of run and fukked themselves out of a field goal



Meanwhile the Patriots handed the ball off and let James White win it for them....

with 5 min left, bum ass falcons sitll lining up in shotgun, still snapping the ball with the clock running with 20 on the clock. Then they get in field goal range you know a field goal will basically end it, instead they decide to pass sack, throw hold

instead of runing the DAMN BALL

as someone that is not really a big football fan and I will admit I'm a casual(don't know much of shyt besides obvious and a few things and teams I support)


I always wondered why Football act like QB be carrying the team like elite bball players do when they play a single role like every other player on the team does.

Falcons are so stupid. Even if they don't gain a yard on the run they still seal the game.

Million dollar salaries but can't manage a clock.

That Julio catch should've been the dagger.

Media needing stars / story lines combined with qb being the most important position has lead to this bs where people only care about qbs.

There's two sides to the coin. Let's be honest, there's VERY few QBs who could have pulled the Patriots back from that deficit. I'm talking like only Brady, Montana...I'm not even sure if Peyton would habe the balls to drop 25 straight in a Superbowl

The irony is Brady was almost picked off by Vic Beasley....they knew better the next play..

Don't forget the 49ers beat the Ravens if they just run the ball as well.

Give the pats defense credit
They started stuffing the run a lil

They were getting burned by the pass

Yeah Atlanta got pass happy but when you getting chunks like they were getting and Ryan was hitting his target u think everything u gonna call was gonna work

Give NE credit for at least in second half getting pressure on Matt
