BrownsDawgPound Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Hi, Browns fans! The 2017 NFL season concludes tonight when the New England Patriots And Philadelphia Eagles play each other in their second Super Bowl. Patriots defeated the Eagles 24-21 in Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville, FL back on January 2005. Super Bowl LII is being played inside the US Bank Stadium in Downtown Minneapolis, MN, since partly cloudy skies at 4 degrees, a wind chill of -10 degrees, and western winds at 10 miles per hour, is the game forecast outside for the 6:30PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff. Justin Timberlake is also the featured performer for the Super Bowl LII halftime show. NO injuries, and GO NFL!!!!! https://www.nfl.com/super-bowl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_LII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconHound Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Always a bit down this time of year knowing the Browns are so bad but here's hoping for a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 I'm still debating how this game is going to go... ... but in the end I keep going back to Bill and Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 The key is going to be in the Eagles Dline and whether they are able to constantly put pressure on Brady throughout all 4 Qtrs, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Philadelphia 39 New England 38, no OT! TA-DA! And our oven roasted chicken with all the fixens is just in the oven now, getting ready for the game and a relaxing evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 ONE MAN'S OPINION, SUPER BOWL LII SEASON FINALE....... New England’s run defense has been strong in its past four games with defensive linemen Malcom Brown, Lawrence Guy and Ricky Jean Francois all playing well. Kyle Van Noy’s return to health was an added plus along with the late signing of veteran linebacker James Harrison, who still can effectively rush the passer. The Eagles ranked fourth in scoring defense and fewest yards allowed. Fletcher Cox is a two-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle. He posted 5.5 sacks and helped make the Eagles the toughest team to run against in the NFL. New England, though, is not a running team. Brady moves the chains by throwing short-to-intermediate passes to Gronkowski, Brandin Cooks, Danny Amendola, Chris Hogan while also frequently targeting running backs James White, Rex Burkhead and Dion Lewis out of the backfield. The Patriots use the pass to to set up the run not the other way around. Lewis’ versatility is a major weapon. He had 1,110 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns during the regular season despite playing very little in the first five weeks. Lewis had 141 yards from scrimmage in the Patriots’ 35-14 throttling of theTitans in the division round. New England is 8-0 when Lewis exceeds 100 rushing/receiving yards. The Eagles gave up 2,485 passing yards to receivers, which was the ninth most passing yards in the league, and 199 catches, which was the sixth-highest in the league. Philadelphia did have the fourth-most takeaways and recorded six defensive touchdowns, trailing only the Jaguars’ seven on the season. Patrick Robinson’s pick-six jumped-started the Eagles to their thrashing of the Vikings. Brady, however, ranks with Joe Montana as the best big-game quarterback of all-time. Given a choice of Brady against the Eagles defense and Foles, the choice is going to be Brady. The Patriots are 159-15 for 91 percent when they have a positive turnover differential. Doug Pederson has proven he’s an up-and-coming coach with a sharp offensive mind. But nobody outsmarts Belichick especially when he has two weeks of preparation time. SO WHAT TO DO? LOOKS LIKE THE PATRIOTS ARE A LOCK COVERED 9 OF THE LAST 10, A SHOE IN, ANOTHER GUARANTEED SUPER BOWL WIN -BUT-....... WE'RE BROWNS FANS AND WE BET THE UNDERDOGS! PHILADELPHIA +4 AND OVER 48 BABY! ENJOY THE GAME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And our oven roasted chicken with all the fixens is just in the oven now, getting ready for the game and a relaxing evening. How could that be an OT score? If the game is tied, say 35-35 at the end of regulation....and NE kicks a FG on their first trip down the field, how do the Eagles then score on a 4 pt. play? The ONLY way I could see that score happening is if: Score tied 31-31 at the end of regulation. NE gets the KO....scores a TD and an extra pt. Then Philly gets the ball...scores a TD...and then scores on a 2 pt. conversion. But that can't happen either...can it? Because...under current rules, if the team that gets the ball first scores a TD...the game is over, no? So...come on now...give us your scenario.

tiamat63 Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 In the end I think the Pats and Brady go at Philly's secondary... if they can at least draw even with the Eagles pass rush, they win and probably by 10 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghoolie Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 STEELERS REMAIN THE GREATEST TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF THE NFL. 6 Super Bowl Wins. What you saw tonight was that defense is neutralized by great offense. Collingsworth called it right. He said his was like fast break football. When an offense is run properly, that is to say, attack style, you see that defense is relatively meaningless. Yes, you need the D to hopefull make a stop or get a lucky turnover, but it is offense that wins championships. THe Browns deed to quit fukcking around drafting offensive linemen and Zumba instructors. QB, RB, WR, TE............... THAT is 90% of football.

mjp28 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 Why Foles might remain an Eagle (from another thread): 1. Philadelphia Eagles Why it could happen: This is all about Wentz's recovery. He tore his ACL in December, roughly nine months before the start of the 2018 season. So, Wentz -- a quarterback who relies on his mobility behind the line of scrimmage -- might not be fully healthy in time for the regular season. Just because Adrian Peterson did it doesn't mean Wentz will be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 When NFL named it the Super Bowl, that's the game Fans are looking for . Like many..How many thought Brady is going to pull this game out again? or How many thought, when was Jim Schwartz defense going to make a play? Great game to watch. Hoping G.Williams watched Schwartz formula of success is getting there with 4 up front. Beats getting caught with several blitzes not getting there at all..Lets put some names to the play of the game. I felt great for the Rookie from Tennessee DE Nick Barnett. Nick recovered the fumble that sealed the deal since 1960 last SB win for Philly..Nick was drafted at #14 this season & was greeted by booling Philly fans wanting weapons for Wentz..Funny how that worked out Philly Fan? Patriots #69 RG Shaq Mason, 3 years out of Georgia Tech got schooled by a 8 year grad from Michigan Brandon Graham on a bull rush with swimmove smacking straight into Brady arm with eyes on the prize..the football.. Down goes the Evil Empire II..Congrats Eagles..There are some good Eagles Fan..Shared Beers with many wearing Browns Gear..Just don't put skirts on Rocky. They think he's a living Character. The Philly Creeps will show up to those strutting Cowboys & Giants Gear.. Awesome Game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time honored words of truth that still apply to this day. The right side of the NE OL line crumbled. The NE D never got to Foles. O lineman are worth their weight in gold.
