I think the SB passing record is not in jeopardy

So about those Drake Maye/Trent Dilfer comparisons...... Let's just say that halfway through the game, he's on track to be like one of those QBs and it isn't Kerry Collins. Sam Darnold is a lot of lucky drops from being Kerry Collins though.

All evidence was erased with a certain shutdown but when I heard people were crowing about Sean McVay, I suggested firing Gruden and hiring Sean immediately.

I also recommended Mike Macdonald as head coach when he was available from my experience watching his defense at Michigan and at Baltimore.

It sucks watching professionals get it wrong again and again.

Scrub QB Super Bowl. We have to get one of these once a decade or so. Seems like we haven't had one since Dilfer vs Collins tho.

Oops, I forgot the Flacco/Crapernick SB.

The professionals didn't get it wrong iirc. The team asked MacDonald second after Ben Johnson, and MacDonald said no. Quinn was the team's third choice.

This halftime show is for the wrong country, and the wrong sport. Give me a fucking break.

Yeah, the McDonald thing was a bit unfortunate. These things happen when you shoot your shot and get rejected. You might end up missing out on your next best shot. Seattle wasn’t going to let him get away though.

I’m just going to suggest we stay away from this topic before it goes off the rails….

I’m not sure that Macdonald wasnt actually #1, but they wanted to talk to Ben Johnson. But we’re getting off topic.

I haven't been excited for a halftime show in years. I was in the minority of people who were looking forward to Coldplay (didn't turn out like I had hoped though), but nothing since then. They're all just a 20 minute light show on mute for me.

 

[GhostofWoodson]

They asked Ben Johnson first, that constitutes a mistake.

Sorry I think a SB coach who we had a shot at and Mcvay(earlier in the thread) was close made it relevant. I'll back out.

Eh. Use your judgement. But if we start to go too far down the rehashing of how Quinn got hired we should take that to the Quinn thread.

Tom Brady, with Josh McDaniels offense didn't ever look this inept. Drake Maye is a problem.

Brady at his current age would probably win this SB.

 

[SkinsFTW]

Wow, even the SB commerials that are supposed to be good, suck. What happened?

 

[Voice_of_Reason]

16 yards net passing for the patriots

 

[SkinsFTW]

Glad that i didn't bet on this game. I did pick the under but I also expected several turnovers as well.

The score is down from the 45 but there are no turnovers, which I would expect with these 2 QB's.

 

[Burgundy Sweatshirt]

What a snooze!

 

[SkinsFTW]

What a snooze!

Yeah, it's the most boring SB in a long long time.

 

[Kel Varnsen]

I think it’s time for punters to be the MVPs. They’ve been on the field the most and have had a bigger impact than either QB.

 

[NickyJ]

Drake is gonna have to light it up this quarter to upstage Trent Dilfer.

Edit: Fumbles don't get counted on the same chart, so at least he has that going for him.
