The #1 takeaway from the Super Bowl
Patriots got way way behind because they threw the ball too much when their passing game was off. Led to the pick 6 and multiple drive-wrecking sacks in the first half and a little ways into the 3rd. And during the comeback, the goalline pass to Bennett was nearly intercepted ... the Pats nearly Seattle'd themselves!
Falcons got pass-happy despite the fact they were leading big and that Freeman was roasting the Pats defense almost every time he touched the ball on the edge. Being pass-happy will come back to bite you in the ass and it bit both the Pats and the Falcons in the same game! There are going to be a few teams in the NFL that will get the memo and reap the benefits if they commit to running the ball and run it fairly well. Let's hope we are one of those teams. |

Re: The #1 takeaway from the Super Bowl
I thought the touchdown in OT should have been challenged. How come no one said anything?

Learned? TE depth, solid if not great receiving back is key. OG play is huge. Tall CB have value. running stuffing and setting the edge is key. LB play has to be solid not flashy. solid safety that excels at tacking and stuffing the hole. Their is the off season shopping list for the saints to beat the falcons based on how the pats won.

Re: The #1 takeaway from the Super Bowl
#1 takeaway is that speed kills. We need more speed.

Re: The #1 takeaway from the Super Bowl
My #1 takeaway is Tom Brady is probably the best QB to play the game...
