    For the first time in Superbowl history, it's heading to overtime. Is it first team scores still?

      Only for a td.

      Field goal means the defending side are guaranteed a possession

          FUUUUCK!!!

          Fucking Patriots

          I don't like Tom Brady, but that bastard is the best player in the history of the game, what a performance.

                  All the talk in the next few hours will be about the Patriots but this Superbowl was all about the Falcons and their great choke in one quarter. That was the type of thing a franchise can never come back from, but the problem for me is that Kyle Shanahan might decide to stay one more year in Atlanta to try and right the wrong.
                  Kyle, just grab your stuff and head to San Francisco because this will haunt the Falcons for seasons. Matty Ice is not an elite QB and was about as useful as Rex Grossman down the home straight.

                    Two big moments in the game were the non-block leading to the fumble and TD; and then the set of downs straight after Julio's catch. That play should have won the Superbowl, but two massive fuck ups and they went way outside field goal range, and at that point Brady was picking apart the secondary for fun.

                    Then you get that incredible catch on what should have been an interception. It was like for the 4th quarter the Falcons could do nothing right.

                      @mariner4life They eased up once they took a 28-3 lead and thought their defence would bring it home. Now to be fair, that is what you usually do but this is the Patriots and they needed to keep on attacking until the final second. They didn't and they lost.

                          Bloody hell. That was a Team NZ America's Cup level choke from the Falcons.

                          As many rugby teams could tell you when playing the best, three quarters of a game isn't enough. It ain't over til the final whistle, and if you ease up, the best will mow you down.

                                  @Sneakdefreak on highlights that forced fumble is continuing to come up, and it's even worse than i remember. 3rd and one, and they had Jones open and the pass was going to him for about 7 or 8. That pathetic attempt at a block is the turning point.

                                    Off-season is beginning and the 49ers are off the mark by signing QB Brian Hoyer to a 2-year deal and WR Pierre Garcon.
                                    Released a bunch of players including WR Torrey Smith and safety Antoine Bethea, and CKap has left the building. Washington may still trade QB Kirk Cousins to the 49ers since he has made it known that he doesn't want to stick around there.

                                          those first two words are pretty fucking important though. And our O-line as it stands isn't going to give him the best protection.
