Did America win?
By all means dislike it. It's weird and bitty and honestly the Super Bowl is probably the worst way to try and get anything out of it because it's all the stuff you probably don't like about it but amplified. But if you're getting annoyed by it every year then save yourself the bother and spend the time doing something you might actually like rather than something you can probably be fairly certain you won't.
To be fair if he'd been doing both simultaneously that would have been quite a feat.Originally Posted by Jimmy Floyd
And it would have sent that bloke who wanted to sue the NFL because Shakira's bum gave him a stiffy over the edge.
You knew the Chiefs were winning as soon as it went to OT.
Shanahan fucked it hard by not running it nearly enough in the second half.
America always wins. World* Champs.
Shanahan definitely blew the game by trying to make it about Purdy. The kid is good, but CMC was gashing them up for 5+ yards a touch. Put it on his back and run him into the ground. Chiefs defence was gassed leading up to OT and during. Obviously the injuries didn't help, but the Chiefs were begging to give them the ball over in the first half. Game should have been gone by then.
A big lesson he needs to learn is if you have a GOAT level QB on the other team, going for 3 points and giving him the ball back just isn't going to cut it. He's just dragged a team of nobodies and Taylor Swifts angry boyfriend to another title without any of them doing much for him.
Managed to somehow avoid the result all day, got in, saw the Sky NFL channel had a scheduled full match replay on from 8-12, was in about 9 so thought it would be better to watch it that way and suck up a missed quarter or whatever than in highlights, which are shit. 9pm, 1 hour into a 4 hour programme, what do I see when I turn it on? 19-19 and over time just kicking off. Death to the schedulers.
To be fair, the first 3 quarters were the Chiefs pretending to be bad and having to watch Usher on roller skates.
Don't you dare disrespect my man. He actually had the balls to sing live rather than lip sync and did a lot of dancing too. Like him or not, you've got to give him props for committing himself to it and not taking the coward's way out like most of them do.
I will give him all of his respect back and then some for cuddling up to Alicia Keys. The man saw his chance and took it.
Some great ones in here.
That is stunning.
Cam Newton being attacked 3 v 1 and not even losing his hat is such king shit.
The Texans are looking pretty damn good right now.
He seems like a massive prick.
Almost certainly, although I imagine most NFL players are (hello Rashee Rice).
Bills are taking a $31.1m dead cap hit for the trade which is quite telling, they really don't want him there.
Jesus wept.
The man is a loon.
Concussions are one hell of a drug.

Some.good stuff in here.
You’ll never guess who went first overall in the draft.
Falcons with the bracket buster.
Pretty much every team in the top 10 selected a QB, except NYG who are sticking with Jones.
Record set for consecutive picks on one side of the ball. Record set for longest time into the draft before a defensive player was picked. Record set for QBs taken in the top 10 and top 12.
Basically if you had a need for defence but didnt pick until the late teens or 20's then you lucked out.
There were a couple of head scratchers in there though. Penix to Atlanta doesn't make a lot of sense for the capital involved. They could have moved back at least once or twice and still picked him up. He'll also be 28 if Cousins does play all of that deal he signed literally last month too. They have a talented young offence that was being held back by poor QB play and bad coaching. Both of those were fixed in the off season. You had the chance to do whatever you wanted with this pick and still got it wrong.
Bowers the other strange one. No idea if the Raiders tried to get into the QB party room but got stopped at the door, but this team had a lot of needs. They also just took a big pass catching TE in R2 last year. Either they think he's shit or they don't know what they're doing.
49ers have been touting Deebo and moreso the unhappy Aiyuk according to reporters, so to see them take WR here suggests to me one of them may well move on.
Eagles went into the draft needing some serious CB help. I was expecting Howie to have to trade into the mid-early teens to get the guy he wanted. Turns out we didnt move at all and at #22 still had every CB still on the board to take a pick of.
I'm seeing mixed things about Nix but i was worried we were gonna spunk a load more picks on trading up and it sounds like Payron genuinely likes him so I guess I'll just cross my fingers and hope for the best.
Talk on Twitter was that Payton was going to take Mahomes back in the day(even had the name down on the card ready to turn in) but the Chiefs sniped him. He supposedly likes Bo as much as Mahomes.
As for the Chiefs, This is their 3rd shot at trying to take the next Tyreek. One of them has to land eventually right?
Nuts that the Bills would trade with them.
Supposedly the Raiders, Seahawks & Saints were all trying to trade up for Penix, so seems like Atlanta wouldn’t have been able to have moved back & still got him.
It’s definitely weird considering the contract they have Kirk about a month ago, but they do have half of the Saints old back office so of course they’re pissing money & picks everywhere.
As for Nix, I doubt he’ll be a star, but he should be a better option in day one than Jarrett Stidham & Zach Wilson. Not sure it’ll be the most explosive offense, but Payton will be able to craft a system for him so he could settle in around the borderline of acceptable & solid.
Mayer & Bowers is going to be a better version of the Bills having Knox & Kincaid. Mayer will do the boring stuff underneath & Bowers will do the fun stuff from the slot or the backfield.
In general I’d say it’s a pretty solid job all round, with Penix being by far the strangest pick. Most of the OL picks seem like they should work out alright, and even if we end up with 10 good players from the 32 picks I think you can at least get what most teams were going for.
Just seen Panthers wasted a pick to trade up one spot to get a guy they would have got anyway with pick 33 tonight.
How is this Penix person having his name said as, from the outside, it looks like that name has plenty of lol potential.
Pen-icks
Was hoping for pee-nix, unless his first name is Denix.
Well sure, he's gonna say it's Pen-icks.
Big Hyacinth energy.
Penis ahoy.
