I'm calling this year's super bowl "The Special Teams Bowl", because special teams screw ups from the losing teams are one of the biggest reasons the Patriots and Seahawks won their respective conference championships. It takes all the phases.

There will not be a Superbowl repeat this year. The Chiefs back to back remains the only one in the last 20 years.

I thought the same. "Oh! Hurts gets all the calls! Angry face." But it was a correct call. I still can't figure out which of these teams I want more to lose. Unfortunately they can't both lose today.

Two great games today. Both the Bears and the Panthers making big comebacks in the second half. The Panthers fell short, but the Bears pulled off an 18 point comeback with 25 points in the fourth quarter. The biggest comeback in Bears postseason history. 105 years.
