Troy Aikman cries as Tom Brady advances to his

TEN Super Bowls!

Tenth Super Bowl

Is that called an online burp?

Vomit by Ben.

Tom wasn't Terrific, but he was good enough to lead the purveyors of the cutlass to Super Bowl LV.
January 24th, 2021 at 6:24 PM ^
Tom was terrific. Until he wasn’t. Which correlated with the needless deep shots up 18! points. Bucs coaching staff deserves a lot of credit for their 4th down call to end the half and the sweep to Godwin to clinch it but you can see why Winston threw one millions pics last year.
January 24th, 2021 at 7:23 PM ^
That's what photoshop is for
January 25th, 2021 at 8:10 AM ^
Bucs coaching staff also showed the moment was almost too big for them. Having your kick returner slide on the return because you were frightened of a turnover ... but ended up killing the clock with 2:02 left in game and gave Green Bay an extra time out which was the far bigger matter? Not declining Green Bay's intentional offsides with 2nd and 1 with 1:51 left in game, effectively giving Green Bay another time out (though on this one I would concede reasonable people can disagree)?
Tommy-boy wasn't great in 2nd half but he showed the moment was not too big for him and was savvy enough to absolutely make sure they got that last FG to go up by 8.
January 25th, 2021 at 10:34 AM ^
Didn’t Troy say that Brady made that 4th down call? That they let him coach? GOAT
January 24th, 2021 at 10:14 PM ^
Not important, but it's LIV
January 25th, 2021 at 8:19 AM ^
That's just the lombardi trophy in between the L and the V.
(Also 2022 will be LVI)
January 24th, 2021 at 6:23 PM ^
Aikman is an idiot. Every comment he makes is based on prompts from Joe Buck. Without Buck to wind him up, he’d just spend three hours in the booth drooling on himself.
January 24th, 2021 at 6:37 PM ^
Yep. He’s the worst, most uninteresting NFL color guy.
January 24th, 2021 at 7:53 PM ^
Its a great tandem. Joe Buck is the most overrated sports play by play guy in history. I wish he'd just shut the fuck up and go away.
January 25th, 2021 at 6:44 AM ^
I get your point, but no way he is more overrated than Gus Johnson.
January 25th, 2021 at 8:25 AM ^
underrated comment.
dick vitale without the subtlety.
January 25th, 2021 at 2:53 PM ^
I will know I am in Hell if I turn on a TV and Joe Buck and Dackich are calling a game together.
January 25th, 2021 at 12:23 PM ^
It always sounds like Buck and Aikman are describing a funeral until a football game breaks out.
January 24th, 2021 at 7:16 PM ^
The most odd thing about Aikman is that he will randomly circle a WR before a play and not comment on why he is circling that individual. While it’s clear he anticipates that guy to be targeted, he forgets the whole color commentary part of his job.
He is like the anti-Romo. Dull as hell.
January 26th, 2021 at 7:58 AM ^
He's better than Romo. I can't listen to him.
January 24th, 2021 at 6:24 PM ^
I hate the Packers so this is kind of extra awesome.
January 24th, 2021 at 7:12 PM ^
Absolutely!
January 24th, 2021 at 8:02 PM ^
Ditto. And by extension, Erin Rogers. He's the most overrated superstar QB there is.
January 24th, 2021 at 8:29 PM ^
Chris Everett would not appreciate this comment.
January 24th, 2021 at 8:50 PM ^
Bet you won't call me Chris again..
January 24th, 2021 at 9:11 PM ^
No, Aaron Rodgers isn't overrated. Stop with this bullshit.
He's an awesome QB. You can say that he and the Packers haven't won enough Championships and Super Bowls but his stats are awesome.
January 24th, 2021 at 10:03 PM ^
But I thought QB wins are all that matters!
The idea of Aaron Rodgers is so much better than actual Aaron Rodgers.
January 25th, 2021 at 10:18 AM ^
...Shaaron Rodgers
January 25th, 2021 at 10:48 AM ^
he's not overrated.
he is, however, a drama queen and total douchebag. he's a great, great player, but it's really hard for me not to draw a line between him being a complete dickhead and the fact that his teams have tended to fall *just* short of where they might have.
January 24th, 2021 at 10:50 PM ^
This is a stupid comment.
Also, a bonus: hidden within is the notion that calling a player a girl's name is an insult. Moron.
January 25th, 2021 at 2:40 AM ^
Erin Aaron?
Jim Rome, is that you?
January 25th, 2021 at 3:09 AM ^
Pardon me sir, his name is A- A- Ron!
January 24th, 2021 at 6:26 PM ^
It's a team sport & all of that but it's pretty incredible what Brady has done with lesser talent than many that have reached Super Bowls
January 24th, 2021 at 6:35 PM ^
I agree with the last few NE teams. This TB squad seems pretty loaded offensively though
January 24th, 2021 at 7:23 PM ^
i think it's TB's defense that is most impressive
January 24th, 2021 at 7:46 PM ^
Not much more loaded than any other playoff team
Chiefs have Mahomes, Kelce, and Hill. Arguably the best players at their respective positions
Saints have Brees, Kamara, and Michael Thomas.
Packers have Rodgers, Aaron Jones, and Adams.
The talent is all there, but the intangibles set Tampa apart from the others
January 24th, 2021 at 10:23 PM ^
I'd take the Bucs skill players over the Packers skill players any day. And, as Fugitive says, their defense is good. Their D was legit before when Jameis Winston was throwing 8000 interceptions, too, but the team struggled.
Godwin, Evans, Brown when he's healthy, Leonard Fournette, old Gronk, an outstanding OL?
Brady is great. He was astonishingly good for the first 33 minutes of the game today, even his incompletions were mostly perfect passes. But his team is unquestionably loaded. Chiefs loaded too, obviously, but not every team is as loaded as the Bucs.
January 25th, 2021 at 6:18 AM ^
Hold up, you would take Godwin, Evans and Ron Jones over Adams and Jones?? Evans and Godwin had a combine 8 drops in the playoffs alone. Yeah ill take a top 2 wr and top 5 rb any day
January 25th, 2021 at 6:53 AM ^
TB has more offensive weapons than GB. Godwin had a brief moment of "I forgot how to catch a football" against Washington and Evans had a brief moment yesterday. Both were absolutely WTF moments, but at least they both weren't doing it in the same game.
If you haven't watched the Bucs much this year, Ronald Jones is a helluva RB. He has been dinged up the last few weeks with a broken finger and a quad pull. That is why Fournette has been getting a lot of snaps (and performing quite well by the way).
January 25th, 2021 at 4:23 PM ^
Godwin has had drop issues in all 3 playoff games and Evans is usually amongst league leaders in drop percentage( usually doesn’t include contested drops in case you were going there). Who ever says Miller is Amendola lite is clearly a racist /s. But seriously nothing alike. Miller is not a possession receiver and at most times is the fastest guy on the field . Something Amendola probably hasn’t experienced since high school. They are a good unit but have always been terribly inconsistent. Evans struggles against good corners and can’t get separation. There numbers with Winston are extremely over inflated due to him just throwing bombs at will and they don’t get knocked for the picks. AB was coming along but we can all agree he’s a shell of his former self and that shell was starting to look like there best wr down the stretch. The oline was also well below average last year and yes they added Wirfs but there improved play is because of Brady.
There D is extremely talented however I’d definitely take it over GB or KC’s but comparing TB’s offensive weapons to KC’s is laughable unless your getting AB and Gronk from a few years ago.
January 25th, 2021 at 10:57 AM ^
It's more than just Godwin, Evans, and Jones. Leonard Fournette, a former number 4 overall pick, is the BACKUP running back. Antonio Brown didn't even play yesterday and doesn't crack the top 2 receivers on the depth chart. Scottie Miller is Danny Amendola Light. Don't forget they had 3 great TE's to start the year and Gronk isn't even the top receiving threat in that group. Might be number 3 of 3!
GB has Jones and Adams and both of those guys are top 5 or the best at their positions but when one or both of them isn't performing it puts a lot on Rodger's shoulders. Their receiving corp outside of Adams is piss poor. Adams was having a hard time getting open yesterday and it showed. Jones fumbled the game away, so to speak. Even without those two playing at their top levels, Rodgers was able to make it close, which speaks volumes about him. But you cannot deny that TB is absolutely loaded across the board at offense. That is not up for debate.
January 25th, 2021 at 7:18 AM ^
The Bucs have great depth of talent, but their top skill players are probably not as strong as those of the Chiefs and Packers. But no other teams have four or five legit wideouts, two excellent backs and tight ends like the Bucs. Their biggest problem on offense is that there is only one football.
January 25th, 2021 at 4:34 PM ^
There biggest problem on offense is that Arians and Brady just aren’t a good match philosophically. I like Arians a lot he just seems like a dude and has had his share of success but if they did a better job designing this offense around Brady strengths with a foward thinking coach that will kill teams with different group packages isolating the various weapons skill sets they’d be near impossible to stop. It looked like Brady started seeding slightly more and more to Arians philosophy once they got comfortable with a lead. I also got the feeling they were playing with the mind set that another TD would just out the game away and got sloppy
January 24th, 2021 at 6:27 PM ^
I really really dislike Aaron Rodgers. I really really like Tom Brady.
Icing on the cake would be Chad Henne lighting the scoreboard up tonight.
January 24th, 2021 at 8:22 PM ^
Isn't Mahomes cleared?
January 24th, 2021 at 6:31 PM ^
Both announcers were very clearly cheering for gb
Super obnoxious to listen to
January 24th, 2021 at 6:39 PM ^
They didn’t even mention the time the LT replacement false started by about a full second and a half even after they showed it on reply. Dude literally took a full kick slide and set in his pass pro before the ball was snapped. Clear as day no mention. Also the clear delay of game clock was at zero for over a full second
