I don’t think the Patriots have won enough Super Bowls to be a dynasty yet. Therefore I will be rooting for them this year as underdogs. It would only be their fourth SB victory in 15 years because the last two Super Bowls they were in - they lost. They deserve to win this one due to all the bad luck they’ve been having.
Romo appears to be choking.
AZ was chugging along beautifully, qb means everything in the NFL.
Too bad they didn’t have a 3rd stringer like Cardale Jones to step in.
Still... it’s a 4-point game
No reason to start choking or giving up
That did set me wondering. Perhaps any shot on the head is a personal foul.
Yep.
Ray Nitscke would have been livid and likely would have retired from such a sissy game on the spot.
In my life time I may yet hear the following penalty called: “Personal foul., Unnecessary roughness, touching the ball carrier.”
When Carin Palmer went down, that was it for ARZ. I wonder if he’ll come back from this second knee blowout (same leg)?
Could the Lions have gotten the touch back and the ball on the 20? That was an error then to take it out. But that’s hindsight.
Oh well, 1st down Detroit, academic now.

Thanks!
Seriesly hugh penalty.
Ray was intense. He needed the NFL and the NFL needed him.
Do you think they would have ever made a call against Reggie White? Not on his life.
Or not. Huh???
8 minutes, getting down to the wire... been a good game...
Reversing the call.
Detroit to punt...
Looks like the Cowboys need a little extra help from the refs, and got it with that picked up DPI call. The league is going to ENSURE the Cowboys win this one...
I see Jerry's check has cleared
I like AZ. They’re division rivals, but not annoying like SF. I really wanted them to beat PGH a few years back in the SB... Love what Ariens has done with that team...
10 yard punt puts this game into Romo’s hands now
