Looks like it was a classic. Disappointing that Brees couldn't go to the Superbowl again but Rams making the Superbowl is big for the NFL since it's LA.

After the first half I thought they were gone. High fives to the defense who kept it close until the offense came to life

Unfortunately the storyline of the Rams-Saints game is going to be dominated by the refs.

Oh really? I'm going to watch the 2nd half when I get home. The zebras didn't call a head first hit on one of the Rams WRs in the first half, that's all I saw.

[KiwiMurph]

@canefan yeah a huge non-call on pass interference that would have ended the game and the Saints would have won. Horrendous non call.

[Hooroo]

This game is fascinating!!!

[Stockcar86]

Very back and forth

Must be awful for the fans to watch! Edge of the seat stuff!!

[Stockcar86]

Overtime, cool

[Hooroo]

So it is essentially golden touchdown?

What happens if all square after overtime?

[Stockcar86]

then overtime again

This might be the most excellent title game day ever

Fucking Brady and the fucking Patriots.

You just have to admire them.

Fuckers.

They'll win the SB too. Fuckers.

[Sneakdefreak]

Tom Brady & the New England Patriots are the Cam Smith & Melbourne Storm of the NFL. Fifth SB appearance in eight years.

[canefan]

A Rams Chiefs SB would have been boss

Really enjoyed Romo's commentary - great mix of knowledge and enthusiasm

Romo is so good like that. His reading of the play is such great broadcasting

Stoked the Pats made another SB. Now I'll keep my leave day in and do something for the game. There'll be some determination from Brady and BB to not lose to another flash-in-the-pan team this year, but the Patriots are beatable. Can't wait.

[mimic]

Pats win, and now there's a discussion about changing the rules for OT.
Just because you win the toss doesn't mean you win the game. Look at the Saints.
It would be interesting to see that stats for teams winning the toss to win on their opening drive of OT.

One of the craziest stats I've heard so far is that Tom Brady is going to have more Superbowl appearances than any other franchise in history. Steelers, Broncos and Cowboys have only been to 8.

But man, my heart goes out to the Saints. Their recent losses in the playoffs have got to hurt.
In saying that, I have been supporting the Rams ever since they made moves to become a win now team. They really stacked their team, and it will be interesting to see what pans out over the next few years to see if they can extend their window.

[canefan]

@mimic Not only that, Brady has been to the SB in over half his seasons in the NFL as a QB. Ridiculous, says as much about his ability as it does about Belichick's ability to mastermind his team to success

[mariner4life]

I reckon the Patriots win, it's just what they do. It's fucking unbelievable how they just keep doing it too. Some organisations just have success built in to them.

The only thing that gives me pause is the Rams have a couple of guys on defense who can actually get at Brady.
