Oh my goodness. The video is 28 minutes and 3 seconds long. What a stroke of genius, FivePoints. Brilliant.
Omg thats comedy 🤣
Whatever that quote is from general grievous where he says some stuff and then “you are doomed” is basically what the opponent says every time the falcons have a substantial lead
Krusty?
I'm not sure I'd say it's genius, but awesome? Hilarious? Hell yeah 😂
I laughed so hard when I noticed 😂
The term 28-3 is so iconic that one can easily mistake it as the final score of the game
When asked who was the GOAT , Aaron Rogers answered without hesitation, "Tom Brady." Asked why, Rogers answered simply, "28-3."
@@Zerox_Prime is that true?
@@codyvandal2860 It is. I was surprised by Rogers' candor.
"28-3" has become a meme. Brady should have it tattoed on his hand/wrist so everyone can see it in the huddle or use it as code whenever he catches a whiff of fear in the huddle.

This game will forever define the Atlanta Falcons.
They forever instilled a tradition for football fans to comeback and rewatch this clips from time to time😭🤣

33-0 A Colts Perspective. Featuring the same QB from the 28-3 Falcons.
Yeah that Roster and OLine was literally dog water
Doesn’t compare buddy this was the bowl not a 3 win team in the regular season
Social media and media people cannot fool me. I saw Matt Ryan, lose a lead it by the Colts when they ran the ball five times in one game on 3rd & 5 at least five times in one game They did not trust ryan to throw the wall so they lost the game They ran the ball in the red zone 50 seconds before half time with third in less than five to go That’s the Colts losing that’s the organization not Matt Ryan

You’re an absolute legend
Sorry not sorry
🎶 Without love 🎶
Dude I had no idea you were into football
Foolish Baseball For Life. Love your stuff man sorry about the pain.
the fact that julio caught 4 of 4 targets and wasn't targeted more is insane
Just because someone is catching what you throw them doesn’t mean they’ll be open and able every time you throw it their way. Julio wins man-man coverage, but the pats played zone for a fair bit of the game, where a player like Julio doesnt thrive as much. Also, no need to throw risky throws, not in that situation. Turnovers are the worst thing you can do with a lead
You dont think the pats were all over Julio? They know hes the biggest threat
If you told me before the game that Julio would have only 4 catches, I'd take that every time.
Story of his career
He had a bad foot, keep that in mind.
As a Falcons fan, I just remember feeling so empty inside the following week It still hurts today
Now you know how I felt in 2007-2008 after the helmet catch. I remember being deflated at work in Portsmouth, New Hampshire the next day.
@@americanboy79 That’s not the same thing bud. The patriots still won three more Super Bowls after that. This was the falcons ONLY chance to get a superbowl ring and they missed it. They missed it SO bad.

An even battle you go 'well, it could have gone either way' and you can live with that. Here you're up 25 points and nobody ever beat a 10-point-deficit before, let alone 25 points. It can't be done. Unless... unless the other guys bring the best quarterback in the history of the game. Then it doesn't matter. The Patriots won a game and they were ahead precisely 0 seconds the entire game save the very last second. This one is going to sting a little for a very long time.
This is why we have Atlanta Sports PTSD. Atlanta teams never fail to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. As soon as I saw Edelman make that catch I knew we were going to lose the Super Bowl.
I am in my 50's and have been a sports fan since the 70's before the mid 80's and Bird....we had had a long stretch of heartbreak ....it was the bruins in 1972 just before Bobby Orr's knees gave out wat hte last championship. What I watched from 199-today considering the Celts are looking great has been something I will always be grateful for. we have bees spoiled rotten as boston sports fans since 2000 all major titles won...some multiple, all except the B's that should have won that chicago Cup. But we had Bucky Dent and that homer, wells, the montreal Canadians in the 70's were unstoppable...too many men on the ice game...ugh The Habs....then there was that roughing the passer call the raiders got away with cost us a playoff game, the Fridge scoring a TD and the 85 bears destroying that pats team. We know this feeling that ATL must have gone thorugh...Tyree...I was on the field as a photo runner for the globe and I was on the field and walked off just behind Bill....I was disgusted at that game I was standing next to an exec and he laughed and said looks like the whistle got put away and I knew it was over. the young boston fans today have never really knew losing or bad seasons...spoiled kids many of them. we had title games every year for 20 yeasr it seemed. I sure felt for ATL, sure I was happy....but I know the feeling of this....never a good one.

@@reiserkeiserYeah, and while we’re at it, let’s talk about 1995. I live in the Cleveland area. Back when I was 12 years old, I went roller skating with friends of mine. It was the night of game six, I remember that night it being announced that the Atlanta Braves had beat the Indians (now Guardians) in the World Series. Yeah, I was a bit saddened, even though they had a great season. My point is, Atlanta been far less robbed than Cleveland in sports!

Matt Ryan walking around after this game, Patriots confetti raining all around him, despondent and in disbelief, must be one of the saddest sports moments of all time.
One could easily just say "Oh well look at the paychecks he gets" but however as we all know pride in winning a championship cannot be bought.
It's really freaking sad. He lost the game largely due to forces outside of his control.
@@Xhoven he made bad some decisions like taking a sack and not scrambling when he could have!

@@AmirKhan-yv8jm That's why I said "largely." I don't absolve him of all blame, but Shanahan's play calling really doomed the team. "Pass to score, run to win."
I cant imagine being in the Falcons locker room after this. They had this game in their grasp and slowly but surely let it slip away.
Tears, sadness and shame. That's all you have to think about
Very, very quiet.
i play hs football. it may not be the nfl but the environments are pretty much alike i would say. my very first game as a sophomore we lost 58-0 in an away game that was at a school in another city 2 hours away. in the locker room we were just mad and quiet. coach was just standing outside the locker room looking at the field and beyond that the city below. inside some of the seniors were screaming things like “this is why we dont fuck around at practice” nd things alike. when we got back on the bus to the back everyone was calm. still tense like we just lost 58-0. next day we went over film made adjustments and forgot abt it. it was only a regular season game so i imagine that the falcons may have felt this but worst.
@@nysom3356 Dude I was in a similar Situation we got blown out 57-0 and that was during a game we needed to win to go to playoffs. A blowout heartbreaking loss is one thing but to lose in a come from behind win by possibly the most hated team in the league and do it in your own city and it's the superbowl? That's the worst loss ever. I remember being in the locker room after losing in the playoffs in a last second field goal and it hurt.
@@Argos-xb8ek sucks to go through that experience man im glad u got through it okay fr cuz i be hearing stories of ppl who kill themselves abt things like that. i mean as ghe clock ran out wstching the other team run to the sidline throwing their bottles snd globes in the air and them jumping up nd down as they run into eachother with all their fans cheering. we just had to sit there and watch and i wanted to kill myself😭
As a falcons fan who watched the whole thing live you don’t know the despair I felt watching the game
don't despair... this game was rigged just like the NFL is completely fake and fixed.
As a patriots fan who also watched the whole thing, I was growing increasingly more miserable all throughout the game right up until the tide started to turn. Then I started getting excited, but remained extremely nervous. When James White broke the goal line in overtime, I don’t know if I’ve ever felt so much happiness over something I saw on tv. We were screaming, jumping around, not knowing what we just watched. After the initial wave of emotion I just looked at that confetti falling and imagined how I’d feel if I was a falcons fan, and I started to feel pretty bad for you guys even though I was having the time of my life. Anyways, I’m not laughing anymore because now the patriots suck too so after a lifetime of being a spoiled pats fan, I finally know what it’s like to lose consistently.
As a packer fan, think I felt it the aaron rodgers nfc championship against the Seahawks.
You're 28-3 ahead, you're thinking: this one's in the bag. Just take it easy and we'll finally have a Lombardi again. Then it starts and the score evens out. Then the Patriots get the ball in over time and you know, you just know, you're never winning this game. That feeling of imminent horror knowing there's nothing you can do about it.
There's a saying out there that goes, " and you shall know joy to the depths of Atlanta Falcons Fans sorrow! It was great guys. Patriot elation was just outstanding at the end of that game..!🤣🤣🤣
This game cemented my opinion about Brady. I went from being impressed in his early days to cheering against him when he had that undefeated season to just giving up in this game and accepting that he's the greatest athlete in history.
Him and his team didn't win this game. The Falcons blew it.
@@Burninateit86 i don’t think greatest ‘athlete’ is the right term for brady. i see him as one of the greatest competitors, which seems similar but the distinction is pretty big
@@Burninateit86 the word "athlete" is not well-defined here. It means different things to different contexts. In terms of his sport, Brady is the greatest athlete. But he is definitely not the most "athletic" by physical fitness standards, compared to e.g., most of the examples you quoted.

It is. Its Sports Legend now. Whenever an epic comeback (dont get too excited now AB) or collapse in a team sport happens this loss comes to mind. This happened 5 superbowls ago and people still talk about it like it just happened yesterday. This game will live forever.
Pretty sure it's going to be taught in history books too
some of us understand, to some degree - seahawks fan
The day after this i went to school and just about the whole school knew that i was a falcons fan and my history teacher was a pats fan. So that morning we watched the highlights of the game and i just wanted to cry. Even tho this happened in February of 2017, people still remind me that this happened all the time. 😭💔 hopefully one day, we will be able to go back to the Super bowl and win.

As a Pats fan, I do have some sympathy for the Falcons. For every hero story, there is another team with unfinished business.
What unfinished business?
Yeah...huh? Unfinished? They won many times before this lol it was all finished, they just added another patty on the burger
I thought it was obvious that Brady got to be the hero and The Falcons got close but didn’t complete the goal of winning the Super Bowl (hence, the Falcon’s unfinished business).
Yeah I know what you mean I am a Seattle fan and in really liked the 2013 Broncos, just not as much as the Seahawks. Really glad that the Broncos got to win 2 years later though, so a lot of the SB XLVIII Broncos guys still got rings
I'm a big fan of Arthur Blank, and what he does not only for the NFL but for the city of Atlanta. When I was watching live, at halftime I was telling everyone at the party (I was the only Pat's fan there) that Brady and the boys were coming back. I was so hyped through the come back, but then I saw Mr. Blank on the sideline, dejected. I legit teared up. As much as I wanted Brady to win, It actually hurt to see such a good man essentially get the rug pulled from underneath him. I keep hoping the Falcons can pull it together for him one the way the Chiefs got one for Norma Hunt.

Right, that's why Eli Manning and Nick Foles got it done, but the falcons couldn't.
As a New England sports fan for over 50 years, this will go down as the second greatest memory/comeback in my lifetime. Only the Sox coming back from 0-3 to the Yankees in the 2004 ALDS (and ultimately winning the World Series in a 4-game sweep) eclipses this.
Well im a Yankee and a Falcons fan and honestly I thought nothing would ever be worse then watching the Yankees blow that 3-0 lead.... boy was I wrong because watching the Falcons choke away this superbowl was by far the worst most painful shit i ever had to watch. I guess I felt the RedSox deserved it when they came back....

They had the audacity to come down on the field BEFORE the game was over….to gloat. Their plans were foiled. This was part of Atlanta’s bad karma. Dumb move by the owners!!

Ryan's pleas to LaFleur to ask Shanahan to send in running plays going ignored hurts too.
What timestamp was this?@@12secta81
@@12secta81 Ryan calls the plays in the huddle. He could have changed them to runs, so that's a lame excuse. Matt Bryant led the league in FG% that year, and was clutch all season long from 45 and in. No way I'm not giving him the opportunity to win this game, after the insane catch by Jones. No way I'm snapping the ball with double digits on the play clock either. Completely inexcusable mistakes from Matty Melt.
As a Pats fan I still have much respect for those Falcons players. I’ve always thought that the coaching staff lost that game and not the players. Ryan was phenomenal that season. Much respect.
Pete Carroll was another genius coach who proved himself stupid against the Pats. Why not call Beastmode at the two yard line? Carroll figured he had two shots at a TD. If Beastmode quakes his way into the end Zone, he becomes Super Bowl MVP in a contract year. Instead, let the young QB on a rookie contract have that honor. Sorry. Pete, but you outsmarted yourself and cost your franchise a SB.
It was mostly on the coaching for not making adjustments when needed but to be honest the players get blame too. Falcons players were getting super cocky and celebrating on the sidelines early. You NEVER celebrate early in the NFL especially when you have Tom Brady and Bill on the other sideline and even more so in the Super Bowl when you know the other team is going to pull out everything they got in the bag.
@@Zerox_Prime I've never thought Carroll was a genius coach. That Seahawks team was so talented, they should've won more. That defense was absolutely loaded then you got Russell Wilson, Beastmode, good receivers and tight end. A really good coach could have won many times. Carroll's teams are too undisciplined.
I am a longtime Pats fan since the late 1980s. The coaching staff was too arrogant in deciding to pass way too much.Should have pounded the rock. The defensive scheme was working for the Falcons.

Not running it three straight times at the 22 yard line is the worst decision since the Seahawks 2 yard throw.
No, it was far worse, because the Seahawks 2-yard pass on the goal line wasn't actually a bad decision. It was the only interception all season, in any game, on that kind of play. The Seahawks were expecting the worst thing that could happen was an incomplete pass, and they'd still have time to run the ball on 3rd down. But then Butler made a genius-level instinctive move to jump the route, Wilson made a not-so-great throw, and yeah, the Seahawks became the Patriots' next victim.
@@lew526 Seahawks 2-yard pass was a bad decision.
@@lew526hell naw. It was stupid. I’d rather lose a game running 4 straight times than throwing a pick on the 2 yard line.
@@Chuida17 A fumble was more likely than an interception on that play, by which I mean both were extremely unlikely. It was about as safe a pass as could be called. Such an interception literally hadn't happened all season, and it took a perfect read, all-or-nothing gamble, and supreme execution by the defensive back. Saying otherwise detracts from the greatness of the play he made. But if you don't believe me, look it up. How low-risk a play it was was covered at the time.

The Falcons still haven’t recovered from this massive L
Ya, sad how many teams went into meltdown (for many complex reasons) after losing the Super Bowl.
Completely disagree. Obviously yall are not Falcons fans. Yall talking like the Falcons were yearly contenders for a NFC championship. They were division contenders at best every third year or so before that and returned to form afterwards. That ENTIRE season was played exactly the way the SB went - except ATL's defense that year found a way to get stops and end games enough for an 11-5 record. NOBODY in ATL believed the Falcons would beat the Patriots, NOBODY. On sports radion programs people hoped they would win and might've dreamt they would surprise us all, but the shouts and cheers were muted. This wasn't the Dirty Birds of '98. ATL fans had been burned before (see 2012 NFC Championship vs 49ers) and held their collective breaths and tried to enjoy the moment. The Falcons were 4-6 point underdogs going in to that SB and lost by six..I'm like what's to "recover" from? How can you lose a game you were supposed to lose and yet be shocked you lost??

I want to see their record/stats since.. They looked so good now people are doubting Matt Ryan, Julio (who I believe has had injuries..) and everything about the team.

I'm from Atlanta. I'm not really a falcons fan, but I root for them when they play. I'm a 49ers fan. But that day I watched to halftime, then went to sleep, ready for a parade or some type of celebration in the morning. I can't mimic the feeling I had when I woke up and googled the final score
I can’t believe you didn’t wanna finish it
@Shaan Keole Yeah but it's the super bowl. Idc who's playing but i watch that no matter what
@Shaan Keole that's what everyone thought so completely understandable, a 25 point deficit in the SB, its game over😂 I would have loved to see the confusion firsthand though the next morning as people woke up and saw the final score
Simply... bruh.
Atlanta is pretty
The Falcons and Matt Ryan have never been the same since.
This was one of the best breakdowns and storytelling about a game that I’ve ever heard if not the best. Great video buddy awesome Job
Thanks James!

You guys deserve someone better than Matt Ryan, dude is talented but chokes in the worst possible times. Reminds me of Romo.
@@natesoto1362 That wasn't an offensive choke. The Patriots suddenly knew everything that was coming. Did you not see Bucs-Rams this year? Same thing, except the Rams figured out what was going on and changed up their play calls for the last drive. Those two games did not look to me as though they were on the square, and given the Cheatriots' history (snowplow/tuck rule/deflategate) I'd say someone brought some dirty tricks to Tampa with him.
James White just announced his retirement today in ESPN put it on the top five on the website I didn’t know who James White was so I looked him up and he only had 1200 yards in like 38 touchdowns his whole eight year career I was so confused all day of why ESPN took the time to announce James White retirement after watching this video I understand why he basically won that superbowl
38 touchdowns in nfl is pretty badass dude
i was wrong for sure glad i watched this vid
The Patriots never had great wide receivers other than Randy Moss for 3 years. Tom Brady would have four wide receivers that for good 3 running backs too tight ends in Brady would use them all. Tom Brady has thrown a touchdown to 98 different players. Peyton Manning in his career has thrown a touchdown to 50 different players. In two years playing with Tom Brady Randy Moss is third highest in touchdown catches from Tom Brady behind Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman. If you look at all the long-term receivers that Tom Brady had most are between 20 and 30 TD in their career with Tom Brady. Mike Varbel who played on defense has caught nine passes from Tom Brady all nine are touchdowns. Most teams have four or five players they can throw the ball to a lot of the time. Brady had 10 players he would throw to during a game. That's why many of his receivers have never made a pro bowl because he spreads the ball around to too many different players.
corey dillon is not in the hof 10 seasons 89 tds 38 is badass?
As a patriots die hard fan and a TB fan, this is so tough to watch. I was so pissed the first half I turned the channel. Only to come back 10 mins later and say screw it, it's either going to be an epic win or we lose. To my joy they started to come back and won. Falcon fans my heart goes out to you on this one. 👍
Never turn you're back on you're team

As a Falcons fan who watched this debacle in real time, it pained me so much to watch this autopsy and relive this horror. Alas, hope springs eternal...
For me, hope finally died after this game. I've slowly been drifting away from football since

As a Tom Brady and Pats/Bucs fan, but also a Christian, sometimes I feel like Brady was indwelt by Satan that day. Only a powerful demon could concoct such a powerful comeback, and convince so many people to worship a man instead of Jesus. And the WAY in which it all happened, almost seems supernatural

I remember Dan Quinn post game told a reporter, "this one's gonna hurt for a while." It's been 5 years and the wound is fresh as ever.
He knew his tenure and image took a massive hit that he would never recover from. A few seasons later, he would be out of the job
Yeah, even the simple football term "strip sack" can make an Atlanta fan cringe. Like seeing the Queen of England lose her crown of jewels to Bob Marley running through Buckingham Palace and ripping it off and laughing on his way out.

This game easily cemented Brady as the best Quarterback if not player in history. Coming as a Pats fan, this was the first superbowl I watched since I moved to the US the year prior. I remember watching it and being amazed by edelman's catch. Amazing game.

I was watching this game with my gma and aunt. I became a fan of the Falcons around 2011(mostly because of me and Julio sharing the same last name and was 11) and I remember this season and how exciting it was to have my favorite team make it this far. I remember my gma asking me why I didnt celebrate at any point of the game. all I said was "The game isnt over, were playing against Brady and the Pats" and sure enough what I feared happened and the worst part was that it happened in slo motion
As a Falcons fan this will never go away. It will never not hurt. I felt like someone I knew died. I was at a party with my friends and just left. My life was terrible at the time too so it was extra shitty. Now my life is pretty great and the Falcons suck so and there’s no need to even take them serious but forever a fan and the Braves got that ring!!!! So we got that!!! 😂
I want to go back and enjoy that Regular season without knowing what Type of bs is coming in the Super bowl
so interesting how sports will affect people lol. my life was total shit when houston won the world series, but fuck it, a town i grew up near just won a baseball game. that must mean i’m on top too right?

Maybe to most Seahawks fans it might be that way, but I am a Seahawks and falcons fan, and that loss made it 10x worse
Wouldn't even call it embarrassing, just unlucky that's all. Pete made a wrong call, and they lost on that call. Pat's had practiced that play lots. Almost like bill knew, he'd throw and not run it due to there % of successful throws in that area, through the season for Russell. Seahawks Vs broncos. That was embarrassing. Seahawks game was just epic final play awesomeness. Sherman face was priceless lol.
an absolute gem of a video, and the fact that it is 28.3 lenth video is a nice touch.
Panthers fan here. I feel your pain Falcons nation. The panthers are also 0-2 in the Super Bowl. Heavily favored in the 2nd one. The pain never goes away.
Except, you barely scored.
After the Malcolm Butler interception in the pats vs Seahawks sb, I’m sure the Seahawks were relieved when this happened because they were no longer going to be the team that suffered the most embarrassing sb loss in recent football history thanks to the falcons 😭
Both are bird teams that haven't even sniffed the NFCCG since their SB losses. Tom Brady must hate birds.
Lol we don't forget
And Quinn was on the losing end of both debacles!
Other then this game, the most embarrassing sb loss was the broncos to the Seahawks. Manning and his team didn’t even show up. It was the most lopsided sb in decades.

Seattle also blew a 10 pt lead against the great one...and failed to simply run the damn ball.
They did run the ball but there was still too much time. It was that 3rd and 15 that killed us. Mahomes got that 1st down just like Wilson does all the time to us lol.
@@squidusn71 Yes this is becoming a trend with Shanahan, but it was the 49ers defense that let them down the most. That 3rd and 15 was the game. Looked like the 49ers were trying to stop the 15 yard pass and let Hill get open downfield. Big mistake. Mahomes will throw the ball anywhere and always wants to get the ball to Hill. That completion was way too easy and not only got the first down, but got them close to the touchdown. After that the 49ers defense gave the Chiefs problems, but always gave up the 3rd down play or had a penalty. That's what lost the game more than anything.
@@stickman1742 from what I heard, moseley, who was covering hill, dropped his coverage too early or when he wasn't supposed to at all. It's still too painful to watch any of it. I haven't recovered from the Ravens game as well.

This is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen!
Amazing fact, at the time of this Super Bowl Brady has been to the big game 40% of his career. As of 2020 he’s been to the Super Bowl amazingly over half of his career. Truly unbelievable
That’s 100% not Brady. That’s 100% the AFC East. If he spent that time in the NFC west for example he would have had the 2005 Seahawks, the 2008 Cardinals, the early 2010-2014 Patrick Willis 49ers, and of course the 2013 Seahawks. Then factor in the Rams who were always a .500 team so could play spoiler at any time. Much different than the 3-13 Jets year after year. Brady and BB play with house money every year because no matter what they were going to the playoffs as a division winner. That lets you play loose and flexible to any change to see what works. It was a vicious cycle that greatly enabled their success. Look at Brady’s timing in jumping to the nfc south just in time where Carolina collapses, brees retires and Atlanta is in disarray. Reminder, iirc Brady’s last two rings came courtesy of opponents scoring a COMBINED 12 points. and prior to that i believe was the Seahawks goal line failure. That to me is 3 rings that he has something to do with but his defenses were far more valuable.
@@ariel9302 cope harder
@@ariel9302 You're argument makes you look stupid when Brady took on Brees, Rogers, and Maholms back to back all in one year, all Hall of Famer, all MVP QBs. Bet you got excuses for that too.
@@ariel9302 Your point would actually be a good one if it were true. Unfortunately for your argument is the fact that the Pats with Brady as their QB had a better winning percentage when playing teams outside their division. They actually had more losses against those lousy teams you mentioned in their division then teams outside it. They handled the rest of the NFL very well compared to those lousy Jets and Dolphins teams. But facts aside teams can’t help the which division they’re in. That’s not Brady or Belichicks fault they were in a weak division. Yet another fact that blows your weak ass argument out of the water is the fact that they spent most of the twenty or so years together at the top three teams in the conference. Often the top one. Which then makes their schedule the following year a tougher one and negates the fact, as you claimed, they play in a weak division. It’s ok, you can admit it. It’s remarkable what the Patriots did with Brady as their QB….no matter what division or conference they’re in.

I said it on that night and I'll say it again. We will never witness a Super Bowl as amazing and #49. Truly a movie.
Probably the best. I don’t think we’ll ever see another starting QB win this many Super Bowls ever again.

Go get your jergens bottle.
I've seen many tough losses. But none devastated a team as much as 28-3. The only game that even comes close was the last Bengal's playoff game.
During the Bengals game, the stat of all Bengals playoff games with a fourth quarter deficit had the requisite "0" in the win column. But AJ Green catching his first (and only) playoff touchdown, I though that would change. Still waiting...
What about the cowboys game?
And the fans. That game gives me depression
18-1 was far worse
@@meenamjah That will haunt me for my entire life (and Brady’s too). But the Patriots had an epic run. We have nothing to complain about.
Excellent video my friend. As a lifelong Falcons (and Bengals!) fan, my suffering as an NFL fan seems to know no end and this game was the pinnacle of that. Even if the Falcons somehow shock the world and win the Super Bowl one day, I don't think the pain of this particular loss will ever go away. You made some great points throughout the video and like so many fellow Falcons fans, I will NEVER understand why the Falcons didn't make better decisions during that fateful second half. I don't like conservative/safe football strategies. However, when you are up 28-3 against THAT Patriots team, sometimes playing it safe and simply running the ball can be enough to win you the game. At the very least, it would have eaten up clock and given the Falcons tired defense a chance to rest. What can I say? It's incredibly painful even all these years later. And it has made me question if I should continue to invest my time in sports. I actually watch sports a LOT less than I used to so I'm not as invested and this game is a huge reason for my decision. I still root for my teams but not as hard/faithfully as I once did. Life is too short to feel this kind of pain over a silly sports game, right? Or not so silly if you've pulled for your favorite team for 30+ years...and still hope for that one championship moment to finally come.
You Can Root for The Bengals now Since They'd start Hot now As A true Super bowl contender.
