Homefield in the playoffs is over rated. See 2021 Tampa Bucs.

Todd Bowles led defense (good all post season) is the real reason they are hoisting a title tonight.

I'm not even mad. Congrats to the Bucs for taking care of business.

Well, Bruce Arians dumped Jameis Winston for Tom Brady - SuperBowl!

Bruce Arians knows QBs as well...

I’m not going to lie bro... It hurts. And seeing play after play an LSU LB making an impact. Knowing we’ll never draft those guys from our own backyard for some reason hurts.

Blaine F’ing Gabbert has as many SB rings as Drew Brees now. Let that sink in Payton you absolute knob.

I'm not sure which pi$$es me off more; the yucs winning another SB before the Saints or them being the first team in NFL history to play in a SB in their home stadium, it goes without saying I wanted the Saints to do that!

Re: Don’t think I’m gonna watch!
 
I’m so happy for Lavonte David though! I’ve been praying to find a LB like him for so long. We finally found one in Demario Davis but it’s too late. David is probably right up there with Derrick Brooks.

How many of Brees' years wasted not making linebacker a priority?

Look, you've got to have a solid defensive line, then two corners (one elite, one very good), a safety with range, but it's the linebacking that gets you deep in the Tournament...

The guy on the Bucs no one is talking about is Vita Vea. He finally came off IR and created serious havok up the middle, looked better than he ever has. That allowed the Tampa pass rush to take it to another level.

And coaching.

Todd Bowles doesn't get enough credit.

They beat Brees, Aaron Rodgers and Mahommes in the post season to win the chip. That is hard as hell to do.

Was pulling for the guy closer to my age; the same guy that ripped the A-T-L's heart out in the greatest comeback in Superbowl history...

The schadenfreude Brady gave me that day was epic...

Full disclosure though, I had a three-movie matinee with me and my pups today and didn't catch the game till half way through the fourth quarter...

A very ugly, very large can of worms is opening.

Totally crazy. Madness.
The Washighton Redskins need to change back from , from, whatever it is called . Capitals?
In the comments, someone , jokingly, mentioned Saints would have to name because of being offensive to atheists and agnostics. Too funny.

Re: Don’t think I’m gonna watch!
 
I know it sounds cliché', but watching the bowl last night …

Defense wins championships. Especially considering that in today's NFL, it favors the offense. JPP, Vea and Suh had Patrick running for his life most of the the game. KC back ups were no match for an already stout Bucs d line.

They were dominant in the trenches when they had to be.

Re: Don’t think I’m gonna watch!
 
At least now we all can agree that Tampa's defense is why we lost and not because our weak arm QB couldn't throw the deep ball. The bucs d shutdown the strongest arm QB and fastest WR in the league. Didn't even score 1 TD.

I was waiting for this to be said... Mahomes threw 2 INTs as well. Id say that Mahomes and Brees fared equally as well against the same defense which may speak more to 'any given Sunday' than anything but it is notable none the less.

Agaiant the Buccaneers
Saints had 55% 3rd down efficiency
Chiefs had 23% 3rd down efficiency

Good post...

Todd Bowles is one of the top Defensive Coaches in the league. He made Spags across the field look like a Piker..

The difference in this game was KCs Fisher getting hurt at the end of the Bills game. They were in Mahomes grill all night. Also didn’t help that they dropped passes that Kelce and other WRs usually catch.

Also, TB got every call in that game as well as some shady ones against us that also changed the flow of the game.

Brees and the offense, especially Cook simply played poorly in the game.

The Chiefs want to attack teams vertically so with poor online play you would expect their numbers to be down. I will say that I expected them to make some adjustments and get the ball out quickly but they didnt and it cost them.

Only a few misguided people have given Spags credit for being anything more than a mediocre DC.

The puzzling part for many fans was how the Saints fared earlier in the season, only to take a dump in The Tournament...

Could the poor ratings have something to do with people being tired of the league bending over for Brady and gift wrapping him another SB?

The Chiefs were essentially without three offensive linemen and Mahomes did have prompt surgery days after the game to help him recover his lethal mobility...

And if you believe in it, there's the Karma thing...

The NFL keeps trying to make the best game of all time every year , but still lands up dud after dud. They missed the all mighty one in 2018 when they no flagged the Rams IMO . The Brees Brady matchup would have been the one.

I was in Steamboat Springs snowboarding with a friend from Memphis that now lives in Seattle. He's from Carolina and a Panthers fan. Both of us agreed it was the worst SB we've ever seen. Just terrible handing TB and the Suckaneers that trophy. Didn't even watch the second half after the officiating in the first.
