I feel bad for welker, a majority of people are solely blaming him for losing the game,(though both hernandez and branch also dropped passes) I'm surprised Brady didn't step up and say it was partially his fault as he threw it to early and at the wrong sholder of welker

Yeah, I agree, they are putting it all on Welker when it should be at least 50/50. And you are right, Brady should have stepped up to say the he didn't make it any easier for his reciever.

Well the Superbowl is growing wildly popular in Canada. Up by almost a million viewers from last year.
8.15 million compared to 7.3 million. 11 million watched the halftime show and over 18 million watched a part of the game.
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/football/super-bowl-draws-record-audience-in-canada-and-us/article2328476/comments/

Around 35% of Americans watch the game, around 25% of Canadians watched the game.

The growth is quite large that sooner or latter it will likley be near the same.

"it was they..." ;)

But yeah, the packers deserve no hate

They? If I wrote the same sentence about a single person, I would use "him", for example. So that must be wrong too then.


Yes, that would be "it was he"

Just invert the sentence.  "Him was it" or "Them was it" probably sounds wrong to everyone.

Well Giants are Superbowl champs again and beat the Patriots AGAIN! Seriously you can keep hating all you want but Eli belongs up there and he has grown ALOT since he first started with the Giants. He has also proven to be on point in the clutch and made so many right play calls. I am praying for another ring so the Giants can get the respect they deserve as underdogs that shouldn't be counted out until the final whistle. They can almost taste the Cowboys', 49ers and New England's 5th ring.



Make games, not war (that goes for ridiculous fanboys)

I may be the next Maelstorm or not, you be the judge http://videogamesgrow.blogspot.com/  hopefully I can be more of an asset than a fanboy to VGC hehe.

Yeah man, I'm right there with you. Another ring for the Giants with Eli running the show would be the shit. They've got a lot of good years left with Eli to get it done too, barring any unforeseen injuries or anything else that could end things early for him.

I find it amusing that so many people are blaming Wes Welker for the Patriots losing. You run a post pattern at full speed, have Tom Brady throw the ball behind you, twist counterclockwise and catch it. I'm not saying that he couldn't have caught the ball, but it would have been a tough catch. Brady made a bad throw. He should be blamed more than Welker on that play.

Yeah, it is pretty rediculous.  As I have said before, no game has been won or lossed by a single play.  If The O line didn't mess up on their first play or Brady throw intentional grounding, they could have gone down the field and at least scored a field goal.

If the offense in total scored more points.

If the defense got to Manning more or batted down some passes or make a big turn over and prevented them from scoring.

If the giants did play as well.

The Patriots lost as a team, and the Giants won as a team.  You can't blame one person or one play.

Yeah Brady should talk most of the blame, Welker was wide open and he threw a bad pass that made it difficult for Welker to catch.....I guess all those guys who use to defend Brady until they turned blue in the face in this thread can't show their faces anymore around here.....lol

did anybody watch the clip if Tom Brady's wife after the game! "My husband can't throw and catch the ball at the same time!!!" LOL!!!

after watch it Brandon Jacobs said "She need to stay cute and SHUT UP!!!" LMAO!!!!



Aww poor little super model didn't get her way, got heckled and had to drop some f- bombs while throwing her husband's teammates under the bus. I guess her friends and family didn't pray enough.
