I think it's possible to be both. But I lean towards choke job.
Last nights entertainment industry show.
In choosing one or the other, complete choke job by Atlanta or great comeback by Patriots?
I think it's possible to be both. But I lean towards choke job.
You should look into the viability of ending your life.
Oh it is.
But on offense when all you have to do is not turn it over and Ryan does it not once but twice.
It's a choke for the ages. On the Spurs section the thread asks how it ranks with the Warriors 3-1 choke and the Spurs Game 6 Giveaway of 2013.
Ya the suckworthiness of the collapse puts it in All Time category.
It's both but it depends on your rooting interest. If your the falcons it's a choke job. If your for the pats it was an amazing comeback. Buting falcons not running on 3rd - 1 and taking themselves out of field goal range. But damn The pats needed to convert on two - two point conversions just to tie.
It`s both. It was a choke, no doubt. But is there any other team, that would comeback from that, other than Patriots ?
A bit of both
Falchokes really lost control in the 2nd half, they froze and couldn't make plays
But credit to NE for taking advantage tbh, they still had to make plays
Exactly.It's both but it depends on your rooting interest. If your the falcons it's a choke job. If your for the pats it was an amazing comeback. But
If they simply run and the Pats bust thru the line and stuff the runner short, hey nice play Pats.
On the Ryan sack, if he simply throws it away they have a 39 yard field goal attempt. If the Pats break thru the line and block the field goal, you say Congratulations Pats, way to take the game away.
But, ATL had the game won and gave it away.
Pure and simple. It wasn't anything the Pats did to cause the giveaway.
Ya, once Atlanta gave it away the Pats made good plays.
Don't forget to vote.
It's always both. The comeback will be highlighted because it cements Brady's and Belichek's GOAT status. The choke will be highlighted because...who the blows a 25 lead in any game, let alone the SB (where the previous biggest choke was losing a 10 point lead).
It was a choke. This is the 2nd year in a row where the team decided to let the qb be the hero instead of just running and milking the clock. Kyle Shanahan turned his brain off after julio made that amazing catch and it cost them.
In a quarter and a half too!!!
Massive chokejob imo not Oilers vs Bills bad but given the stakes it damn close. My nigra EDP445 thinks that was rigged and it's hard to disagree.
When Brady got the ball back down 8, everybody watching the game knew the pats won.
I give them the credit. The biggest miscue for ATL came when they had 2nd down at the pats 23 and could have just killed clock and booted a field goal. Instead they go for a pass, take a sack. Then commit a hold to take them out of FG range (and stop the clock) then throw a sideline throw and don't kill clock. It was a stupid sequence that gave the pats a chance... But man, Brady is vicious when you give him a snowballs chance
It's always a combination of both. As much credit as the Patriots deserve for their comeback they would not have been able to pull it off had the Falcons executed properly on either the 3rd-and-1 that resulted in the strip sack or the sequence of plays when the Falcons got down to the 22 late in the fourth quarter.
All we had here was this....
Greatest coach ever with the greatest QB ever in a very familiar situation (SB) vs a team with a new head coach, a QB who had never been in anything like this before. So we got what we were suppose to get. No choke, no great comeback, just how it should have went and it did.
Legendary trainer, his fighter in his 7th le defense vs a new trainer with a fighter in his first championship fight.
That could be any sport.
clearly a comeback... Ryan played a great game throughout. He made two stupid plays, but the fumble was a massive mistake by freeman. You don't justify a qb wasting a 25 points lead, but he made throws even late in the game, so he was clearly not taken over by nerves.. We were just luckier tbh
Obvious answer is both. Patriots had to have nearly flawless execution on the last two drives (especially given they need two 2 point conversions) but Atlanta had 20 different ways to not lose that game.
The question is which do you choose?
Got to be at least 51-49 for any observer.
Matt Ryan sure did seem upset and disappointed after the loss, huh?
IMO the 51 goes to the team with the 25-point lead. Because at that point you really shouldn't need to do anything extraordinary to win; you just need to avoid making mistakes.
A great comeback always involves a choke, tbh..
Atlanta could have ran the ball and potentially ended the game with a FG..I understand staying true to your style and not relying on your kicker to win, but wow, poor coaching..
So your vote is?
Definitely more of a choke than a comeback (
Obviously a massive chokejob but Pats deserve credit for the adjustments and the epic 4th/OT performance..
Don't think the Pats would have ever had a chance had the Falcons just ran the ball in the 4th, no excuse to run it 4 times after being up 25 pts... Ryan played a great 3 1/2 quarters but you don't give the opposing team a chance in that situation..YOU'RE IN FG RANGE JUST RUN THE DAMN BALL AND KICK THE FG
49ers just signed this re to a 6 yr deal as well LMAOO
