Super Bowl 53 will go down to the annals of history as one of the greatest games ever played.

0:23.0

A total combined score of 16 points.

0:27.0

I'm not going to tell you how many times you look at the people at your house and go, what the hell are we watching?

0:34.0

I'm just going to be honest. I can't, I don't want to try it like I'm hoping that I'm coming in here today and that Chris is going to tell me that it was actually low key when the greatest Super Bowl is ever and he can't wait to watch the film.

0:46.0

Nope, I'm not negative ghost rider, but I did enjoy it. I mean, I enjoyed that, you know, it was a chess match that every decision.

0:53.0

I mean, I certainly wasn't one 13 to three, but because 1710 I could have been happy with.

1:00.0

I tweeted out I was like, you couldn't pay me $100 to watch this game again.

1:04.0

And the amount of tweets that I got were, hey, appreciate the defensive struggle. Look at all the great plays.

1:11.0

And I go just because not a lot of points are scored does not mean it was a defensive struggle.

1:17.0

When there's seven, three and outs, it's also poor execution. When I'm watching Jared golf taking sacks for no reason when he's held the ball for 12 seconds, okay, fine, maybe the coverage is good, but I'm also watching offense's inability to make plays.

1:31.0

Right. So I, I felt dirty. I felt cheated. And I'm also going to say this. I don't think that was a Super Bowl.

1:40.0

And I'm not saying that Ram Saints was the Super Bowl. I'm not saying that Patriot Chiefs. I'm saying that it shouldn't count.

1:45.0

And thus the Philadelphia Eagles are still your world champ. Yeah. Okay. Sorry. Sorry, buddy. That's not happening.

1:52.0

But was it more and we're going to we have something to get to, but I just really quick. Is it, is it more defensive struggle or bad execution?

1:59.0

Oh, I mean, I think it's a little bit of both. I do think it's more defensive struggle though. I do. I think the defense and what Bella check did defensively was phenomenal.

2:07.0

I think we saw two quarterbacks who were not that great, not again, before we started attacking Chris Sims. It's just these aren't the top five quarterbacks in football.

2:18.0

They're, you know, Brady, you could argue as edge of top 10, I would say, right? And I believe that Jared golf is the men.

2:25.0

Goes a line in the NFL. Basically, right? I believe that Jared golf is he wears 16 of the 32. He is 16. I feel like if you're better than Jared golf, you're good.

2:34.0

If you're worse, you're probably not. Yeah. I mean, I think that's fair. I mean, you know, again, to bring it back full circle. I mean, last year, remember we were 28 touchdown seven interceptions, all this. Oh, yeah, he's the best. He's the best. No, he was not. That's why I had him 20th last year.

2:48.0

If you remember after the season or going in this season, it wasn't a knock on him. But you can see once again when McVeigh doesn't dial up. Oh, Todd Gurley screens and the run game doesn't work. He's not the type of talent that's going to carry a squad.

3:02.0

That's not what he's capable of. But regardless, we do have to give a lot of credit to both defenses. Of course, both of those defenses are phenomenally coached and have a lot of super freaks. And that is what really led to one of the most boring games.

3:17.0

Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of people talking about how the Patriots played a six by one up front. They did take cover the edges is what we talked about. And then playing quarter quarters in the back was awesome. But you look at it.
