Wow down to an 8 point game

[hn68wb4]

Falcons are straight up blowing it, that play call was right up there with Seattle's. Why the heck do you pass it on 3 and 1 with a two score lead, and needing to drain the clock.

[PurpleCity5]

Well, Atlanta better run some time off here. No SB has ever went to OT. 

[JO_75]

A direct snap? See Patriots can't win without trickery. 

[Nge2grads]

Buck and Aikman are always cheerleaders for one team.  Any station but Fox please!

[PuRock]

Damn.  Watch the Patriots come back and win this thing.  And be declared the best comeback in SB history.  Ugh.  Falcons had this and they had to go and get all stupid.  

[BmoreBird22]

To be fair, calling a pass isn't necessarily a bad idea. Devonta Freeman straight missed his block.

Like the Ravens.  Just run the ball.  One yard and you're averaging over 6 yards a carry.  And you put yourself in a bad spot.  Stupid.  

That's one of the criticisms of Kyle Shanahan, that he often gets too pass-happy. Fumbling was the worst thing that could have happened to the Falcons because it burns less clock.

They need a good rebound drive here. Either take three minutes or so off the clock or score, ideally both.

[JO_75]

Just run out the final 5 minutes here please!

[allblackraven]

Come on Falcons, get your **** together now

[JoeyFlex5]

Brady and that damn Statue of Liberty. Seems they make a big play using that every year at least once

[PuRock]

Falcons, the highest scoring team, needs to find a way to just kick a FG.  That's all that's needed.

He may have missed the block but he's also averaging over 8 yds/carry

He did, but I think the situation comes into play, 7 Mins left, make NE earn it. 

[BmoreBird22]

And to be clear, I expexted a power I run with DiMarco in as the lead blocker.

[PuRock]

Looks like Falcons have taken the stupid pill now.  

[52520Andrew]

The over still has a chance

[PurpleCity5]

FG is going to end this.

That pass was a beautiful play. I don't think it was going anywhere but to Freeman unless someone was wide open.

Almost there. Please Falcons, finish this one!

[redlobster]

Falcons RT hurt

[JO_75]

Oh great.. the Falcons OL potentially takes a hit if Schrader can't continue

[redlobster]

Did he get his second foot down?

[ta2d1]

amazing catch wow.

[PuRock]

They left like 15 seconds on the play clock.

But doesn't matter, what an epic catch by Jones.  

[Inqui]

The Patriots always seem to get trolled by an incredible catch every time they're in the Super Bowl.

[JO_75]

Another deadly catch that potentially kills the Patriots. Great catch by Julio.

[Nge2grads]

What a tremendous throw by Matty Ice and a great catch by Jones.  Let's go Falcons!!

Julio is insane... that is all...
