    There you have it, Carson Wentz is a system QB.

    Play was easily and obviously a TD.

    And yes, glad Patriots lose.

    Right? Catches ball...takes two steps...dives into endzone. If that's not a TD, I have no idea what is.

    Exactly, it is a catch once you make a football move, four step would definitely count as a football move, I have no idea what the people who thought it wasn't a catch are talking about, he obviously had control when he took those steps and was diving for the end zone.

    It was actually 3 steps. Anyone that didn't immediately realize that was a TD is just being ridiculous.

    So many of my friends who are Cowboys fans said the same thing, it's pathetic. Those plays aren't similar at all.

    Who were your friends cheering for ?

    Dallas fans have reason for either team to lose.

    Justin Timberlake. They didn't commit but I think deep down they wanted the Eagles to lose more.

    NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday on Total Access that there were a myriad of issues that led to Butler's benching.

    "One thing that Bill Belichick said this morning was that a lot goes into it," Rapoport said. "And yes, from what I understand, there are several factors that led Malcolm Butler, one of the team's top defensive players, to not be out on the field for the Super Bowl. Among those, he showed up a day later than teammates because he was sick. Remember, he was not at Opening Night. That was a factor. I'm also told that during practice this week he really struggled. Had a rough week of practice, perhaps because of illness, but maybe because of other things. That was one thing they had to consider in putting Eric Rowe out there instead of him.

    "But I'm also told there were some other issues, disciplinary issues. There was a small or minor violation of team rules that happened earlier in the week that is one thing. And then there are some attitudes, frustrations as well. All of this combined to put Malcolm Butler not on the field with his teammates trying to win the Super Bowl, but on the sideline watching."

    I am pretty sure if the Texans won the SuperBowl that the city will be pretty trashed

    Nope. I've seen us win 3 titles and all were celebrated peacefully. Plus our cops don't play that ish. After the Astros won they made the bars near MM stop serving liquor and eventually cleared downtown.

    Does this mean the Jordan and Tom Brady talk ends even though they both play 2 different sports.
