The Official All Day Superbowl XLVI Thread

Recommended Posts

this is the least enthused about a super bowl I have ever been. I don't care for either team and it feels like a rerun.

I think the giants win because the pats haven't played a team in weeks that can actually throw the ball well, and their secondary is god awful. they've lucked out by playing run first teams throughout the last month or so, so they look better than they are.

I think it'll be Patriots 31 - Giants 20.

I'm actually pretty excited about watching it. Tom Brady has the chance to do something only two other QBs in the history of football have done, by winning four Super Bowls. I don't know if that'll ever happen again (except for Cam, of course.), and it's pretty exciting to watch.

Oh, and there's the commercials, which should be pretty cool.

But, the halftime show is going to suck something awful.

I don't understand how they wanted to go "more conservative" after the Janet Jackson, and then was like, who's the most conservative singer in the music industry? It's GOT to be Madonna, right?

None of her songs are about sex, she didn't make out with Britney Spears on tv, right? Oh, and I'm sure the demographic of the Super Bowl, 18-50 year old males, will definitely love Madonna's music! It's been an the top of the charts for weeks! Yeah!

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
