Pretty good defensive game showcasing 2 great defensive units. Philly needs to learn a lot more about clock management under 2 mins. McNabb would be a lot better QB if he threw more accurately under pressure and didn't overthrow open receivers. I got no complaints on T.O.'s game behavior--he did the job without running his mouth that much. I think Westbrook is as good of an all-purpose back as Marshall Faulk. Glad Freddie Mitchell was held to 1 catch late in the game---justice was served. Deion Branch caught everything that was thrown his way and had a great game for the Pats. Light ate Kearse's "lunch" all day in their matchup on the line. The 2 young Pat safeties did a good overall job in a big pressure game. I still don't understand why they left them alone in coverage on some plays. Teddy Bruschi is as good of a linebacker as there is in the NFL right now---fast, smart, and very motivated. I'm happy for Corey Dillion--he's got a place in the sun, finally, and he's played his heart out during the playoffs--and it showed.
No question in my mind that the Pats and Belichick deserve the title "dynasty" right now---they are the best in the NFL.
The commercials this year were "o.k.", but not as good as in some years past.
The halftime show by Paul McCartney was something that everyone could enjoy.
FOX was very wise in using the "patriotic" theme all during the pre-game. I thought the patriotic pieces were well done, and certainly deserving. Just goes to show that there are still more good, family-oriented, and patriotic Americans out there than most of the entertainment world wants to acknowledge. I hope this example will be picked up by other networks.
