Patriots v Eagles. Brady, Belichick and Gronk go for No. 6. Eagles are good but don't think they overcome that combo. Best quarterback and coach ever and all that experience.
Note to Patriots haters: Feel free to give it your best shot, but remember: You hate us cuz you ain't us.

As a Giants ex-pat living in Philly, this one is a no-brainer. The mouth breathing horde with their insipid EAGLES chant deserve nothing but misery and defeat. Go Pats.

It's much about Foles, right? The Eagles are, IMO, better than the Jags pretty much across the board, and the Jags were in control until they turtled in the second half. Gronk's back, but how effective will he be?

I'm a Giants fan. I can't root for the Eagles. But I can't stand the Patriots either. I have to root for the meteor.

That said, it is so nice to remind the green-clad cretins that they have never won. Agreed. The difference between 5 and 6 Super Bowls is irrelevant. Keeping Philly at 0 is what this season has been about since late September. Also being the only team to beat this vintage NE has a certain cachet. (then again, NE fans apparently say things like "You hate us cuz you ain't us") hm

Great SNL skit, and a stark reminder of how lousy the show has been the past few years.

Had no rooting interest (see above), but that was one heckuva game.

Great game, but Patriots D exposed. Baling wire and mirrors all year. Meanwhile...

I was rooting for NE, but happy that Jim Schwartz got his ring.

No my personal purgatory was 15 of my daughter’s classmates singing that hideous fight song at the top of their lungs.
It is nice to see idiots in the wild though...

Note to Patriots haters: Feel free to give it your best shot, but remember: You hate us cuz you ain't us. OOPS! I hear that Robert DeNiro's character from Silver Linings Playbook was arrested in the postgame melee. Really disgraceful conduct. I was rooting for the Iggles, just because. I don't hate the Patriots (although some of their underhanded conduct was questionable at best), but like most people, I prefer to see different teams win. There's certainly a dash of envy involved - I know, I've been on the Patriots' end with the Lakers and UCLA back in the day. I will say this about Brady - he lost nothing in defeat. The Eagles have one of the best defenses in the league, and all he did was pass for 500 yards. All in all, a fantastic game, way better than the halftime show.
