You got the Seahawks and the Patriots in the Super Bowl.

Everybody wants that new offensive mind, right?

That young offensive mind.

Well, you got two defensive coaches in the Super Bowl with Mike McDonald, the Seahawks,

and Mike Brable with the New England Patriots.

And this is the first Super Bowl matchup since 1981,

and that was the 49ers and the Bengals the first time around when Kenny Anderson was the quarterback.

Yeah.

Between two teams who had preseason Super Bowl odds of 50 to 1 or longer.

Ah.

So not a lot of people thought that these two teams would be in the Super Bowl when the season started.

Yeah. I mean, I thought that the Patriots would make the playoffs just simply because of the strength of their schedule. And that turned out to be the weakest in the NFL. And then, of course,

you know, they caught some breaks here playing Stidham in the AFC championship game. And that turned

back, that turned out to hurt Denver. I wouldn't be, if you would be sitting here this morning with a Denver

helmet in front of us, if Bo Nix was playing, I wouldn't be shocked.

Yeah.

That's how close that game was yesterday.

No, of course.

And I mean, it was just a huge mistake there, obviously with the backwards pass. It changed everything because the Broncos had all the momentum in that game and obviously could have had that 10-point lead, which would have changed the outcome too, but instead they end up going for it on fourth down and not getting it, and that's really when the Patriots became alive. Well, I mean, as live as they could, they only scored three points on offense, but you think

about a blocked field goal that would have went through that would have tied the game at 10.

You're talking about another miss field goal at the end of the first half by both teams.

It was kicking was impossible in this game.
