LAST CALL! Pats – Iggles #SB52 Open Thread

Well well… WELL. This being a Sunday afternoon, Hate Week is no more.

Via reactiongifs.us

And yet, the Patriots are in the Super Bowl, again. No. 1 seed in the AFC against the Iggles, No. 1 seed in the NFC. Philadelphia is riding a weekend high, after the Hall of Fame selection of Brian Dawkins. And Terrell Owens; say what you will about T.O. (there’s plenty). The guy balled.

John Clayton, 2/6/05 via espn.com

That was back in Super Bowl XXwhatever. This time around, Philadelphia has a damn fine roster, notably better than New England’s—in most positions. The one really at stake, well…

Tron Brady: what has NOT being said about him? I heard talk about his career thoroughly eclipsing those of all-time NFL greats, to the point that Brady’s true peers are in other sports—like Gordie Howe, Michael Jordan, or Barry Bonds.

The coaching: what has not being said about Bill Belichick. His assistants have been living the life, getting the Pats to the Super Bowl while being the presumptive new head coaches of the Clots (Josh McDaniels) and Loins (Matt Patricia). Losing to this Eagles team will not hurt their bona fides.

On the Philly sideline, QB coach John DeFilippo has gotten interest from several teams. Super Bowl host Minnesota needs a new offensive coordinator, so DeFlip can’t ask for a better Pro Day. The way Foles stepped aside around the pocket against the Vikings D in the last game bodes well for the coach and QB.

The focus on the Eagles has been on making a game plan that Nick Foles would execute without difficulty, putting success in the hands of Agholor, Ajayi, Blount, Ertz, and Jeffrey. They good. Shit, even Torrey Smith can still force a defense to account for him. So Foles has options, but the question remains: what will he do when confronted with the chance to audible?

Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, this guy,

has also been updating his résumé. He’s got a dynamite roster too, including Chris Long—who won the Super Bowl last year with New England. With LeGarrette Blount providing the debriefing for the Pats offense, I’d say the Iggles got prettay, prettay good mojo going into the game. A shame it’s played in the Birdmurderdome.

So the NFC aviary has been owned in Super Bowls of late, with the Pats doing most of the damage. Big deal. I think the Eagles break the hex, 27-24, and the promise of a New Era will carry us through the goddamn offseason.

Then again, this is New England. Any HATAHs might wanna try something stronger than alcohol.

Can’t wait for the Iggles to lose by 1

Senor Weaselo

It has already been decreed.

WhyEaglesWhy

Senor Weaselo

Well, those two missed points won’t come bite them in the ass, right?

Dick E. Phuck

I breathe a sigh of relief when the Patriots are down by 50.

makeitsnowondem

I’m waiting until Tom Brady is dead.

Senor Weaselo

And there’s no time left on the clock.

...

What’s great is that I can’t enjoy this lead knowing how every team that plays the Patriots finds a way to shit the fucking bed when it counts most.

Horatio Cornblower

Cue Rex Burkhead

Doktor Zymm

not the Giants!

WhyEaglesWhy

Never chase points in the first half.

Doktor Zymm

So that missed going for 2 certainly won’t come back to bite them in the ass, right?

Mr. Ayo

That’s 3 points they’ve missed on. Nope. Not a problem.

ThePirateSloth

Imma smoke this bowl in honor of Blount.

Doktor Zymm

You know, I don’t really mind this being a ‘NFL greatest hits that ended up on the Eagles scoring TDs’ sort of game

Dumb fucking move to go for two.

Horatio Cornblower

Yep.

Fronkenshteen

WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT???

Spur

chasing points. good idea

herodotus450

Everybody knows you have to wrap up Blount nice and tight.

Fronkenshteen

Fuck yeah!

Dick E. Phuck

Who knew a Team as conservative as the New England Patriots would be paranoid about a Blunt in the backfield.

Spanky Datass

Blount lit!

Mr. Ayo

Don’t chase points now idiots

Beerguyrob

I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again I won’t be fooled again

...

6-for-9.

Nice.

Doktor Zymm

Good think Jeffery is tall

WhyEaglesWhy

That is a Blount instrument.

Horatio Cornblower

I’m not sure what Butler did but unless it involved murdering, “allegedly” three people and shooting another guy in the face, NE might want to think about running him out there.

litre_cola

Fuck yes. FUCK YES.

WOOOOOOOOOOO BLOUNTDOWN

Now that was a pretty catch.

litre_cola

Now that is a fucking catch.

WhyEaglesWhy

This is already Alshon’s best game of the year.

Senor Weaselo

That is a Philip Rivers approved float.

clint greasewood

NE trades Malcolm Butler to Browns for 1st round pick.

“Ertz took a page out of Gronk’s book”

Oh please. Gronk doesn’t own any books.

Dick E. Phuck

“Out of Gronk’s magazine.”

theeWeeBabySeamus

He tried to take one page, and ended up getting five.

The Maestro

We’re saying Hustler magazines don’t count?

Dick E. Phuck

He was wide open you fucking suck!!

WhyEaglesWhy

Ahhh, there’s Bad Nick. Hopefully it’s a cameo.

Gronk doesn’t have a book

Horatio Cornblower

His little black book has pop-ups holding numbers.

Beerguyrob

C’mon – Playboy’s a book.

C’mon now, he has a black book with poorly crayon-drawn women with exaggerated boobs.

Horatio Cornblower

19 more points and NE will have them right where they want them.

...

You son of a….

Trevor Semen

I spent like 5 minutes trying to find a good way to phrase that idea

Senor Weaselo

Tide’s gonna get sued for that, aren’t they.

Mr. Ayo

We’re in a courtroom!

litre_cola

I want Collinsworth ded.

LemonJello

It has to hurt though. None of this quick and painless stuff for this festering anal fissure.

Gratliff

My SB stream died. My SB stream is cable. What the fuck.

LemonJello

You know why.

The Maestro

Man, WeatherTech is gonna get their shit pumped for that ad.

Mr. Ayo

I’m enjoying these Tie Dads.

Horatio Cornblower

I’m enjoying these Tide Pods.
