Did his very best to hand the game to them red coats but they just were not smart enough to accept it. Must be Trump haters!
Unbelievable game, regardless of who won or lost!

Patriots played one heck of a game. Time to own up to it! It was not about Brady, it was about the entire Patriots team that kept playing against another great team. The Falcons should hold their heads high. They will be in a SB in the future! Mtg

Atlanta Falcons.

Patriots were "off" in the first half. Falcons got pressure to Brady, that put him into "rush mode" getting rid of the ball, so his passes where off the mark, then receivers kept dropping the ball. Falcons did a great job on them.
Second half, the Patriot's O-line decided to give Brady some time and receivers remembered how to catch.
Falcons D was FAST that was the smallest amount of yards after catches the Pats did all year.

That pretty much sums it up.

Somebody finally figured out how to stop Jarrett's rush. 3 sacks against the Pats is something else.

I don't agree with that. I believe that A) the Patriots were better coached but more importantly B) the Patriots were better conditioned.

Atlanta was an 11-5 team that gave up more than 400 points this year.
The better team won.

It looked to me like the smaller faster Falcons linemen, both offense and defense, just put a whoopen' on the Pats for the first half. But by the middle of the third quarter, they were tired and slowing down and the steam was running out of the pass rush. That finally gave Brady the time to complete some passes.
Biggest comeback in Super Bowl history. First overtime in Super Bowl history.
What a game!!
Was that the greatest Super Bowl of all time? Whenever that subject is debated, the 2017 Super Bowl will be one of the games in the running.

Two plays could have turned the game to Atlanta - When the Falcons had the ball deep in Patriot territory, they wound up out of field goal range. A simple run, then kick a field goal would have put the game out of reach. Of course, Edelmann's incredible catch saved the Pats, too. Two inches off the ground, between the defender's legs

The Falcons were an incredible team. Such giant talents really made this a sweet SB!
