Is it me or was this a strange game?
Didn't "feel" like a super bowl, in two years (heck two months) I probably wont remember who they hell played in this super bowl.

Seems like neither team played very well. Seemed like Philly was going thru the motions down 10 with 3 mins left....haven't seen such an inept attempt at coming back in forever.

Seems like McNabb had no interest in running the ball, NE seemingly came out flat....yet philly didn't bother to take advantage. Seemed like there was little emotion out there.

Am I wrong?
Was I watching a different game?

lots of criticism on philly for their terrible 2 minute offense.

i don't know why philly abandoned the running game so early in the game. they never really made pats defense have to be honest. mcnabb was bailed out by some great catches too, otherwise they probably wouldn't have kept the game so close.

I'm pissed at the Pats for not throwing on 3rd and goal from the 6 yard line when they were up 7 points - I knew that if they went up 10, they would not cover the 7 points (I had them at 6.5!!) - I was hoping Vinatieri would miss the FG because then they would play tough defense and hold on and win by 7 - that Fg to go up 10 was the kiss of death !!!!!!!!

I'd have to agree, I was pretty disappointed...and not just because I lost on the Pats. Even when I was winning the adrenaline was not flowing. I just found it dull, a real letdown after such great games earlier in the playoffs. I don't think this Superbowl will be remembered too fondly by anyone. Even Pats fans would have to agree (I think) that the first two SB wins were a lot more exciting than this.
