Yeah, just sort of the, it's not necessarily the good, the bad, and the other. And we will open it up for calls in about 20 minutes. Your thoughts on Super Bowl 60 in the performance by the Seattle Seahawks. But it's more of an overarching kind of thought on how the game went from both perspectives.

0:23.2

I'll start with this.

0:24.6

And it's to me the thing that was most interesting because I actually didn't anticipate this.

0:32.4

Going into this game, I actually thought there was a chance for New England dead wrong. I thought there was a chance

0:39.4

for New England to move the football. And the reason for that is the Rams did it so successfully

1:42.7

They had to stop the run, legitimately put the game on

1:47.7

Darnold, and hoped that he made the key mistake that Jared Stidham made, you know, in the

1:54.5

AFC title game. That's the game that New England decided was their best chance to hang in there and win, was to not allow

2:03.9

Drake May and the offense, and I'm saying the offense as a whole, because the offensive line
