    If New England start poorly next season I'll be very interested to see how Brady reacts. Playing to 45 in an elite team that's winning consistently is one thing, but fumbling the superbowl and then struggling to compete when he's old and grey might not be so easy.

    He's had an armchair ride and the current rules protect him from a lot of the big hits. If his O line can't protect him and he takes too many sacks it might accelerate the process. The decline can come fast but he was still pretty awesome in a losing SB effort, if he can maintain similar output he's going nowhere

        Now the big talking point is what happens to this NE Patriots. Was this their Lakers V Pistons 2004 where it all finally falls apart? Malcolm Butler is definitely leaving for free agency, he seems pissed at being benched and all the talkback is now suggesting that McDaniels is going reject the head coaching role at the Colts because the Pats might need one soon.

        I don't buy it. The more recent reports are stating McDaniels to Colts is happening.

        I apologise @Sneakdefreak

        After being announced as head coach McDaniels has now rejected the Colts.

        Bill B must be on the way out shortly?

        It's obvious he's the heir to the throne. Colts will be pissed....

        Sounds like it was a last minute reversal, as he'd been talking to assistants and making hires at the Colts. If he doesn't succeed at the Pats he'll be out of the league after pulling a stunt like that. Supposedly Kraft personally intervened to keep him because he wanted revenge for deflategate.

            Watching the NFL parade right now, I'm actually glad Philly won. It really seems to mean something to them. As a neutral, this stuff is pretty cool.

              I remember how I felt when we won Bill after 24 futile years. Imagine how it would feel after 60 odd years? That is the best feeling in the world for Eagles fans

                Jimmy Garoppolo has signed a 5 year deal with the 49ers.

                Its big money but good move for both parties - Jimmy G gets his money and the 49ers with a ton of cap space lock up their quarterback in a qb market that is only going to get more crazy.

                    Great signing and yeah, the 49ers have the cap space so they might as well use it. The other teams looking for free agent QBs won't be so happy - the market price just went up.

                      Epic speech by Jason Kelce. Love the shot he takes at Michael Lombardi.

                      There could be a wrestling career for him post football.

                        The best Superbowl ad was this one. I wonder how many takes they had to do due to Eli and Odell pissing themselves laughing.

                          49ers keeping on winning. Win the coin toss against Oakland and will now pick 9th in the draft (Oakland pick 10th).

                              It's tempting but they'll take Sam Darnold with the 1st pick and that Notre Dame OL with the 4th pick. I think the Giants will take Barkley with the 2nd pick however and sign QB Case Keenum in free agency.

                                @sneakdefreak Signing Keenum would suggest Giants will move on from Eli Manning. I'm not so sure they will.

                                  I think they'll move him to Denver if the Broncos lose the Kirk Cousins bidding war.

                                    There are talks that Sam Darnold might not be the QB they are after. They could pick up a QB, Allen or Darnold with the 4th pick.

                                      And that's the end of the Legion of Boom. Michael Bennett traded to Philly, Richard Sherman to be released.

                                        With LA Rams the new powerhouse in the NFC West, and the 49ers about to join them, it makes sense for Seattle to raise the white flag now and join Arizona in rebuilding their teams for 3-4 years down the road. You have to think Pete Carroll will retire this offseason or next.

                                          @sneakdefreak they got a SB out of it, which was more than we got out of the Harbaugh years in SF
