    Random thoughts on the game:

    1) Philly's defense won the game. The MVP should have gone to a defensive player.
    2) Hurts looked ordinary until the KC defense was too worn down to stop him.
    3) Fox's graphics looked like something from the 80's.
    4) The free 4K stream on Tubi was excellent. All football games should have a free 4K option.

      MVP should have been awarded to Eagles Defensive Line. Hard to single out 1 guy. That's why defensive linemen have only won MVP twice.

        They did split the award to two DLs in SB 12. But yes, it would be hard to just find one defender to give it to. That was an incredible team effort.

          MVP = PHI DL

          Think about what our D would look like had Gute taken DeJean in the first and Edge in the second and add Williams in the mix. Fuuuuuuuuuuuck.........

            We hung with PHI even with fumbling the opening kickoff and Love throwing 3 picks.

            If we could improve our DL pressure and the C, RG on the OL, we could be in contention next year.
            Glad to see I'm not the only homer fan.

            Agreed this really does make it feel like they are still contenders. Not pass that offseason koolaid..

              Alot of credit goes to the Philly D-line and rightly so. They dominated all night. I think Sweat or Williams should have gotten the MVP.

              DeJean - Damn, it still pisses me off the Packers could have had him.

              One other thing - watching KC's defense last night, to keep Barkley under 60 yards rushing was pretty impressive too. Few times the KC Defense got to him in the backfield for a loss or no gain. I kept thinking, why can't the Packers D do shit like that.

                They sold out to stop the run. They paid for it though. Eagles threw for 345 yards on only 23 attempts.

                    Wait, let me get this str8t, Bobble: a white corner not only picked off arguably the GOAT QB, but also took said pick to da house?

                    An NFL oddity, indeed. Totally worth the $125 I pissed off on the Chefs, moneyline @-115. (For the record, skipped yet another Super Bowl - ain’t watched a “live” SB since SB 45; woke up at 6 PM CT, checked phone and saw the Racisto Italalanos ahead 24-0 and immediately went back to bed.)

                            No, a certain quantity of both Superb Owl teams Chamoionship t-shirts are made before the game to have ready to sell. The losing team’s jersey get donated to charities in 3rd world countries.
                            But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
