Patriots in Over Time 34-28.
Superbowl pick?

Brady was largely awful for 70% of the game then suddenly started throwing properly. Wilkinson was a golden god for 100% of that game.

I was about to pull the plug and go to sleep at halftime...glad I stayed on. I'm not a fan of either team but you gotta appreciate a comeback like that.
Overtime rule stupidly harsh though, surely Atlanta deserve a crack at getting even, its like having a 'first goal wins' penalty shootout.

You people are complete idiots!
It was the best game of American football I've ever seen... although my knowledge is of course limited.
But Brady just overtook Montana as the best quarterback ever. If you think Montana's drive against the Bengals in Superbowl XXIII was impressive, how about a 91-metre drive (the longest drive Brady had all year) with three minutes on the clock.
Or how about that pass Brady made when he was 3rd and 10 and still 91 metres to go. And of course they needed two points for their last two touch-downs, and they did it!!!
I've never been a huge Tom Brady fan, but he is now the greatest quarterback of all time. Brady could have had over 500 passing yards had his team-mates held their catches.
Brady wasn't great in the first half, especially throwing that 'pick six', but his team-mates just kept letting him down.

Haha why am I an idiot? It was an amazing game.
Edelman had some criminal drops in the first half, especially on a few slants where he'd broken coverage. Brady, however, was overthrowing his receivers and trying to force passes that weren't there. I'm pretty sure on the play where he threw the INT he missed an open guy running a wheel route.
Brady was already the GOAT IMO.

I don't know much about the sport, nor do I know if this Brady guy is the greatest. But he made Chris Jericho's list, so he must be pretty good.

Patriots absolutely went rampant against division rivals, Dolphins.
43-0 blank out.

I need a team to support. The only connection I have to America is a relative who died in the 1980s who emigrated to New York (interestingly, years later another relative died and our family received a condolence message in the local newspaper from people in the USA). Any ideas?

Don't choose "America's Team" the Cowboys.
What's your favorite US city?
I have always been a fan of the Green Bay Packers, because of the fact that they are not owned by a single individual. The entire town, Green Bay, Wisconsin owns them...and also because they are the dairy capital of the US.
Other teams I follow: Jacksonville Jaguars, Tennessee Titans, and the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs have an excellent quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. Young and talented. The next best thing.

Yeah, New York teams are in the big market so you're going to expect the hype and the expectations to be high. The Giants quarterback, Eli Manning, should have retired two seasons ago.
Odell Beckham Jr. was a concern for the team, so many issues.
Their running back, Saquan Barkley is one of the best running backs in the league. Sterling Shepherd is not bad at all. A goo dB team on paper...and after two games this season, they are 0-2.
The Jets have a marginally better team than the Giants.
Haha, yeah, Green Day lol.

I can't stand the whole thing of the owners lifting the Super Bowl rather than, say, the QB or the coach. So yeah, Green Bay are really pulling me in now.
The horror when after all this and your interesting knowledge, I decide to glory-hunt the Patriots haha.
