OMG!!! Just finished watching the replays, the interviews, the whole blessed thing! I am SO GLAD I went back and finished it out. I still rank the victory over Seattle in SB 49 as better, simply because it was a play that should never have happened the way it did and any team on that offensive play would be successful 999 times out of a thousand. But this one is #2 all time! Wonder what the TV ratings were... When NE won the toss for OT and took offense I knew it was all over. I KNEW they had won the game. How many walked away at the 1/2? Both Robert Kraft and Tom got their nudges in on the podium but I think Tom handled it with class. First ever super bowl tie/overtime. First ever come back from 25 down! <--- unimaginable! Brady, first ever QB to win 5 super bowls. So many firsts, so many records. How can there be any debate left about who the GOAT is, coach or QB?
Wonder how many saw Dion Sanders call out the Colts for cheating openly and being allowed to even though everyone in the NFL inner circles knew it was happening...
I'll be watching the talking heads discuss this for the next 6 months until pre-season of next year. Amazing. I was literally shaking trying to text to/with family members. just wow.
We walked away at the half thinking Atlanta had it in the bag. We switched over to Game of Thrones on DVD and was amazed when we turned the game channel back on.
Even Mark Wahlburg left the super bowl. (sorry non Markie Mark fans but he's a raging fan of all Boston if there ever was one). But if there's one team you can't count out until the end, its the Pats.

I am very glad so many NE fans on here got this bizarre win with so much breaking history. Obviously I am not a fan due to the Pats - Colts rivalry, but what a comeback! Made the game so much more interesting to say the least.
I am not sure abt your Dion Sanders observation. I must have been sleeping when this happened. Will you share what I missed? You can pm if you want. I am just curious.
Thanks LS,
