OT
NE 34 ATL 28
Rudy Tomjanovich said it best "don't ever underestimate the heart of a champion." I gotta give credit where credit is due, Tom Brady, time and time again, has proven to be a living legend in comeback victories. The Falcons gave the Patriots one heck of a scare, but no game is ever over as long as Tom Brady is on the field for the Patriots. What a game. It was like the equivalent of seeing Michael Jordan willing the Bulls to a one-point victory over the Jazz in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals. Unbelievable, just unbelievable. Stay tuned for the full recap after the Lombardi presentation.
Q4
NE 28 ATL 28
Everybody catch their breaths. This has turned out into an unbelievable game. But, this is why as long as Tom Brady is on the field for the Patriots they have a chance to come back. And they have turned this from 3-28 game to a tie game all nodded up at 28. Wow, first time that the Super Bowl is going into overtime. This Super Bowl, for sure, is going to be replayed years from now.
Q3
NE 9 ATL 28
How many ways can things not go the Patriots' way? Julian Edelman and Chris Hogan made a few drops. That has been the Patriots' story all game long. And just when the Patriots built momentum on James White's TD to cut the deficit after the Falcons scored off a Tevin Coleman TD, Stephen Gostkowski's shanks the PAT to the right. Will Tom Brady have another magical 4th quarter comeback? This game is far from over and I'm sure the Falcons know it.
