Super Bowl 52 Thread

A hail mary is a virtual free for all. Everyone on the field knows it, including the refs. The refs might as well not even be on the field. They're not gonna throw a flag on a hail mary.

LOL, so this is while the ball is still in the air.  You got a dude scissoring Gronk's leg, another guy pushing him down from behind.  I get Hail Mary's get more contact than normal, but this one is trash.

You better hit up Chris Collinsworth to see if he has anymore tissues left. Y'all are crying all over the place.

There's this thing they call "incidental contact".

If you're going to call a penalty on this one, then you would have had to have called a penalty on Stephon Gilmore for knocking down Alshon Jeffery as well.

It pretty much never happens. There's generally a whole mess of guys jumping in the same place at the same time.

Browns/Lions it was, the game that everyone thought would be the toilet bowl and ended up being an amazing game.

Hands down Wentz.  Wentz was a friggin MVP candidate until the season ending injury.  Wentz is the future.  Foles will end up somewhere else as a starter.  He just earned a big pay check tonight.

Wentz did not deserve to be anywhere near the MVP conversation. Foles over the course of the season would have had better numbers than Wentz. Foles last two games are better than ANY game Wentz has ever had in his nearly two-year career.

He also had terrible games that Wentz didn't have this season Wentz was 2nd in the NFL in TDs and missed 4 games

@top dawg remember the WR I wanted badly a few years ago? Agholor! Damn he didn't turn out to be as good as Odell like I thought he was going to but man has he been a dependable beast slot receiver this year for them. Could've used him against the Aints...

I was squarely on the Agholor bandwagon also. When last season ended,  someone suggested that we put in a bid for him when his stock was low, and I got on that tip kinda hard. He isn't the outside receiver that I thought that he could be, but in the slot he looks every bit as good as his college vids.

After they saw the bad games Foles had to end the season, they rewrote the entire game plan around what he did well (primarily RPOs).

Must be nice to have coaches that can do that

Want to put money on who starts for Philly next season?

Foles might start for somebody else next season too.

That said, I feel like this was probably Foles high point. Wentz is probably just getting started.

remarkable game.

Agree 100%. I really thought he would be a Beckham and he hasn't been even close, but his rebound this year after this poor first two years has been considerably impressive. He was a legitimate THREAT for them from the slot. Not just a solid slot receiver, but a threat that teams had to gameplan for all year.

Sure. All my money is on Wentz. They're gonna trade Foles.
