Yeah, it was a little reminiscent of Seattle's win over the Broncos in Feb. 2014.  Manning was a much, much greater QB than Maye is right now, but the Seahawks completely dominated Denver's OL, and it was over before it started.

Manning by that time was a shell of his former self and lost that zip more lobbing really. That Denver "D" was just nasty and one of the best that I recall

I liked the Mich Ultra commercial with Kurt Russel, and the Budweiser commercial with the pony and eagle.

They really complemented the delicious Vienna-style lager I was drinking.

Did you watch Sam lift the Lombardi? That had to sting, nice move Vikings, that is something the Browns would do. Has any team ever  left a QB go one season that won the NFL Championship the following year? :-[

Yeah. Both were pretty good.

I think overall, between Bad Bunny and the FG/punt kickball fest, probably was pretty relatable for our international futbol fans too.

I didn't watch one minute of anything, except our National Anthem. After that, it was all about socializing.

I will say I was happy to see KW3 get the MVP. 

Too often it's given to the QB almost by default, and Darnold certainly didn't deserve it, and his poor performance kept any WRs from being worthwhile picks. 

KW3 is the first RB to be awarded MVP since 1998, but he was the one keeping the chains moving.

KW3 was the difference in the game
Darnold was Darnold

regarding the halftime show.............

this from a young lady that is a good friend of both of my daughters (about 30 years old)

it was so good! An amazing tribute to latin culture, brought me to tears especially in the midst of everything happening in our country right now

No sir, you're thinking of the 2015 season when Manning crapped his shoulder/arm out and the Denver D carried them to Superbowl victory against the Panthers.

I'm talking about 2013, at the end of which Denver was destroyed by Seattle in the Superbowl.  Manning's 2013 is one of the best QB seasons I've ever seen.  Unfortunately the Seahawks ate his OL alive in the SB and he, having the mobility of a statue encased in cement, couldn't do anything with his legs to help himself out.

Sam wasn't bad with raging subterranean misfits snapping at his heels damn near every play. He did well gettining sacked once and not throwing any picks. Hell Roethlisberger won the Super Bowl vs Seattle completing 9 of 21 passes for 123 yards and a passer rating of 22.6, winning 21-10. Despite throwing two interceptions, I'd take it
