    Big game for the Falcons O line. If they can give Ryan enough time and protection against a tough D line, I think we'll clinch it. We have too many options. Double coverage of Julio will not be enough! Unless the we buckle under the pressure of the being on the big stage, I can see both teams scoring over 30. Come on you Dirty Birds!
  • Really hope it's the Falcons but I think Belichick will strike again.

    I think you'll find double coverage of Julio is not enough for most defences, but the Pats' secondary is severely overlooked

    Is there anyone on here who is a

    'Noooooo!!! anyone but Atlanta !!!! ?' person as they must be one of the least annoying teams in the league.

    That's me, hate the Failcons, hate Matt Ryan's stupid face. Hope the Pats stuff the dirty birds.

    I'd like to see the Falcons do it, but the Patriots usually find a way to win and I think they will again in what will hopefully be a good one. 31-28 Pats

    I'd like to see Atlanta win. Looking forward to it. I think it'll be a good one.
  • Just noticed Matt Ryan has exceptionally shiny teeth

    Looking forward to this.
    Not looking forward to the alarm at 6.

    Hoping for a Falcons win.
    Had a little bet on Julio Jones MVP @ 18s

    Big question is BBC or Sky?

    Sky for me as they have the Fox team commentating.

    Great sacks. Brady was looking ominously good before those hits.

    Both defences doing well so far, perhaps this won't be the slugfest most expected.

    Sports mania fox hd feed on a projector screen. The adverts are borderline hilarious / scary.

    Blood coming through Terry Bradshaw's white shirt. That was a bit weird.

    Turns out it's an advert!

    Didn't see this coming. Fair play to the Atlanta D, they are giving Brady a torrid time. Pats will do well to come back from this.

    loving this, Falcons in complete control so far
  • This is nuts.
  • With those three first downs on penalties for holding, I was dreading the Pats getting back in to this but it's going to take a miracle now.

    Just pressed the record button and I'm off to bed, I'll catch up with the second half tomorrow morning.
  • Just wow!!

    How did they get away with three third down holding calls?

    That was a massive pick six.
