Yup you were right, the Seachickens choked and lost the game.

Look at it this way.  Seattle had a quiet night, most people will make it to work on time and not call in sick.   

Great game.  It was the highest rated game ever.

I even enjoyed the half-time show, which I usually skip.

Yeah... was a great game.  And Perry was a good choice for halftime.

The ending was symbolic of  'someone in-power outsmarting themselves, then muffing it'. 

When I heard Wilson and another player agreed to support ObamaCare, and with Lynch's antics, I couldn't pull for Seattle.  That didn't mean I pulled for NE, but the Hawks don't have my heart anymore.

Perry was pretty good.  They could have done with out Kravitz, and without the other lady whose hook lyric in the song she sang "It's your p***y if you can get it wet".  Other than that, it was OK for the family.

I wasn't a fan of the Hawks last year either, and I don't know why.  I think it had something to do with their championship game against San Francisco.  ?????

I live in Washington state and I have not been a fan ever.  I love High School games.  Pro football they can put it where the sun don't shine.

Same here, I have no use for professional sports. Taxed and I were talking about MMA and it's attraction, as well as the class, gracious and humble of these guys who fight in the MMA are leaps and bounds above the childish antics of prof. football.

BTW, the patriots defensive back didn't "step in front of the receiver", he went through the receiver to get to the ball. But everyone was so busy worshiping at the alter of Belichek and Brady, the refs swallowed their whistles. I guess they figured this might be Brady's last chance with the Patriots, so they wanted to give him a going away present. In any case, commenters were talking about how Belichek had practiced against this very play - and no one mentioned "Spygate".

What?  The ball was thrown right to him.  He didn't even have to break stride:

Not only that but contact is allowed if both are going for the ball. I don't think giles knows anything about football.

Uh oh. Is he a coach or something weird? Shoot, before I made the comment, I actually looked it up on the NFL site to make sure I was right and not mistaken.

Nah, he's just from the north east.

Has nothing to do with where I'm from, and I don't coach. Both men are allowed to go for the ball, but the guy BEHIND the other man is not allowed to go through him to get to the ball. But like I said it's probably Brady's last chance. EVERYBODY in the AFC East has finally realized what the Giants did to New England to win two Super Bowls; stack the front four and play a decent back end. Belicheck lucked out with Brady, who has made a bunch of mediocre receivers look good to great.
