As it turns out, the 2nd and goal slant was a controlled demolition.

What a heel turn for God last night though. I mean, God and Russell Wilson were so close and then he turned his back on him. Should be interesting to see the fallout of that relationship.
As for the game, fantastic game, had a bit of everything. The refs did not hand the game to the Pats as someone who shall remain nameless suggested in the last thread suggested, plenty of non calls on both sides, refs let them play for the most part and made for a better viewing experience. Carroll to his credit took full blame for the play call, easy to 2nd guess him when it fails. I like speedracer was confounded as to why the Pats hadn't used a timeout, they weren't leaving any shot for themselves had Seattle scored. But perhaps if the Pats stop the clock, Seattle runs Lynch on 2nd and even 3rd down so somehow it worked out.
And most importantly I think its safe to say this finally completely closes the retractable roof on the Brady vs. Manning debate. cant't be any sane sports fan left who sides with peyton on that one now.
PS: I hate snow.
Seattle gets away with more physicality in the secondary than any team I've ever seen at any level of football, so to complain that the issue was New England's secondary getting away with something and not Seattle having a trash ass wide receiver corps is hilarious.As for the game, fantastic game, had a bit of everything.

What a weird poetic way the NFC side of the playoffs turned out this year:
Detroit feels like they got screwed against Dallas
Dallas feels like they got screwed against Green Bay
Green Bay completely crapped away a double digit lead in the 4th qtr against Seattle
Seattle completely crapped away a double digit lead in the 4th qtr in the Super Bowl
I could watch that GIF so many times.
Steve Czaban said it so well this morning, basically saying that no, everybody outside of Seattle doesn't hate Seattle because they're jealous, but because they just don't find their act to be cool anymore.
The fact that Sherman made it personal with the whole "24" thing only to give up 2 straight TD's felt like poetic justice. I hope that team crumbles when they give their above average QB 20mil/yr and can't afford to resign half their defense over the next few years.

Yea I liked Sherman last season, but I'm over his whole "I'm the best" thing. He's not. Revis is still better than he is, and Revis isn't even close to his pre injury self.
Seattle will have real problems keeping this team together. They've done a tremendous job building the roster to this point, but the real test of how good a GM you really are is about to begin. They have some damn hard decisions to make this off season.
