I have been hearing a lot of people taking Atlanta to win. The feeling seems to be that NE had a relatively easy road to the super bowl while Atlanta has had a harder schedule of teams. It's hard to go against Belichek though.

Gonna pick Joy's New England Patriots!  I wish they'd start the game just a little bit sooner.  I hate waiting so long.

I heard this was the first overtime game in a superbowl. I would have guessed there was one before but I would be wrong.

OMG!!!!!!!!!   Congratulations Joy! What a unbelievable finish. I have to admit, I thought your guys were toast.  No way did I think they'd come back.  What a finale that was!  So happy for you!

Nuts. No more football till Sept. 

Cynthia, I don't know how Falcon fans ever get over this one. KInd of feel bad for the owner. 

Joy, I probably have done the same if in your shoes.  I've never seen a SB team come back from such a deficit. And you even got your own miraculous Edelman catch, which was unfreakingbelievable.

Bettyjean I already agree about no football for awhile. Argh! And don't know how the team will get over that loss either but guess there's always next season?!?!
