Who got MVP? I lost the TV.

Eli.

Shoulda been helmet catch guy

Is Troy Aikman the greatest ever? He did very similar things in his career (take away the magical moss season that even made Culpepper look like the best ever).

Aikman had a Hall of Fame RB, a hall of Fame WR, and some future Hall of Fame OL on that squad foe each title.

When did Aikman have near the statistical career of this year

Truth be told if you look at Aikman's annual numbers you won't see any outstanding statistical years, even with a loaded offensive unit every year

You can say the same about Starr.

Very true

A couple more things:

Does anyone think that the Kraft's are not going to be very happy that BB left the field before the loss was official? What a classless jerk!

Why wasn't Shockey on the sidelines with his team?

Did anyone else think Troy looked like a scrub and Joe Buck was dressed to impress?

You really cared what the announcers looked like?

Did you see how crooked his Tie was? I am very surprised Fox didn't have someone fix it. This is a huge event. Iron your damn tie!!!

Brady did not play a bad game.

Brady did not win the game. However, he did not lose it. He didn't rise up to the occasion, but neither did their OL. The Patriots lost as a team.

He didn't rise to the occasion? I think he did. With the game on the line and his team behind, he drove them to the go ahead score with under 3 minutes to go. Couldn't ask for more than that, other than another 50 yards to a FG to tie it at the end, which he did not deliver.

Can players on IR be on the field? I know injured players can, but IR seems to change the rules because of roster head counts or something.

One of the best SB's that I can remember. The villian lost tonight and the good guys won. This game actually reminds me of the Pats first championship against the Rams and the greatest show on Turf.

I'm not blaming Brady for the loss. I think saying he played a bad game is unfair. He played the type of game that can lead a team to victory. Tonight, however, the Patriots needed more than what Brady put forth.

Gotta love this one.

[RashanGary]

Good night all.

Who predicted the winner of this one again?



Nah really, Brady's a great QB. I don't like him so this is fun for me. He reminds me the most of Aikman but that's not an insult. This is just a great night and too fun. It's esspecially fun to see the big mouth, nutzo dead wrong like usual. I'll give it to you though, you still yap your mouth like you have it all figured out. Hey that's you, nobody can ever take that away

bulldog, I'm just bein a dick. YOu know I hate Brady. This is just my chance to rub it in. I came from a family of 6 kids. It's what we do.

How about more than 14 pionts with one of the greatest offenses ever assembled? That would be the first think I'd ask for from my QB.


Anyway, I don't even think he sucked, I'm just having fun with it.

And yet you give no credit to the defense that took apart the three of the 4 best qbs in a season 3 weeks in a row. The week before they took apart pro bowler Jeff Garcia as well.

To completely change the subject... my nephew at Valpo threw a Super Bowl Party. They watched a DVD of Super Bowl XXXI. Wish I'd thought of it!

Do you mean the "Most Valuable Winning Quarterback Award"????

Huh??? Starr lead the league in passing in 1962, 1964 and 1966. Only Baugh and Young with 6, and Dawson, Staubach and Anderson with 4 have lead the league in passing more times than Starr did.
