I dunno..when the Lions deferred in OT all those years ago. I don't think that will ever be topped. (they did it to have the wind on their side, but it didn't work out)

Not as dumb as you think.

http://www.quirkyresearch.com/footb...etroit Lions coach,done so for another decade.

  • Number of times: 16
  • Number of wins: 8
  • Number of times the team kicking off never possessed the ball: 3
  • Number of Super Bowl-winning coaches to choose to kick off: 7 (Stram, Landry, Parcells, Ditka, Shanahan, Belichick, Tomlin)
So out of 16 times this has happened, only 3 times has the team lost on opening drive of overtime.

Ha, awesome stats. But that's 3 times that a toss was won and the ball was never touched. Still too many for dis guy.

The worst call in that game, was Marty accepting a holding call on a 3rd and 8, which made it 3rd and 18 instead of 4th and 8. That was on the drive that won the game in OT.
 
I'm a Packers fan first and a Pats fan second. Even though TB is dead to me for beating the Packers, I'm still rooting for him. I'm not bitter that he left New England and I hate Mahomes.

Curious why the Mahomes hate? Seriously, must curious. I don’t really follow him and really know nothing.
 
So I really don’t care about this Super Bowl but my wife and daughter sat down to watch some of the ads. Looking for a way to generate some interest. So, . . .

Is it fair to say that this Super Bowl features something of a show down between and old style drop back pocket QB, and newer style running QB? I know Brady runs sometimes, and has some mobility. But not really as a feature of the offense?
 
Well, at least that's over. I guess it is kinda cool that Tampa Bay finally won one. They and the Seahawks were expansion teams about the same year.

But sure was a boring game.
