QuoteWhat are your thoughts on the "Touch Down" on the 1st down?
Phew!
Thought the Pats played well generally apart from the red zone offense. They were exceptionally fortunate to win. After the missed FG, a couple of plays beforehand I'm not sure they shouldn't have coughed up a TD. A game worthy of the occasion.

I thought it was a TD , thats if 1 foot down means Touchdown. I'm not sure.
From NFL.com:
Michael Signora, NFL vice president of football communications, offered an explanation to NFL.com and NFL Network.
"The ruling on the field of an incomplete pass was confirmed by the Instant Replay assistant, correctly, and as a result, there was no need to stop the game," Signora wrote. "... The receiver did not get his second foot down in the end zone with possession, and as a result, it was an incomplete pass."

I wasn't in a position to check the rules last night but there was a genuine disbelief in the Sky studio.

Now now. They're not that bad.
The CBS lads were also unsure.

Definitely not a TD in the Ravens game. Didn't have possession with both feet down. Hard to believe Flacco out performed Brady and still lost!
Great defensive display from the 49ers(Giants too), unfortunately their special teams let them down. Fair play to coach Coughlin. They were calling for his head in the regular season, but just kept telling his players he had full confidence in them. Hope they beat the snot out of the Patsies(sorry Real ale Madrid) in what should be a great Superbowl match-up.
Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
No one likes us...we don't care
I don’t think the rest of the US is completely enamoured with a Boston v New York match up in the Superbowl either!
I watched NY v Pats in Foxboro earlier this season and the scoreline flattered the Patriots imo. The Pats had a lot to prove going into the game last night, having not beaten a winning team all year. They just about stepped up last night so I expect they will need to improve again. However I expect Brady to play better than he did last night.
In reality its Foxboro vs East Rutherford and that's why I can say I am glad the Giants won (not that New Jersey is much better than New York). Quality finish to the game.

Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
Great win for the Giants. Sensational catch by Manningham there.

Finally I got a result right! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I dislike both teams intensely but hate the Pats more.

Gutted. Tough loss - few missed catches - 1 single turnover. Played hard but few of season long frailties exposed on the final drive. Feel sorry for Brady to be honest - bar a few moments of madness agaisnt the Ravens - he was exceptional all season. I hope he gets another shot at it.
