Yep. Only a certain segment of people don't think that half time show was up there with some of the best.

Different take than the Texans fans, a healthy Bo Nix and the Broncos are in the Super Bowl.

Alex Smith was more excited that Darnold won the SB than Darnold was

I agree, Kid Rocks show was pretty bad. Did you get a chance to see Bad Bunny though? That was a good one.

Yah that’s certainly true.

Probably a better game tonight too. Payton would have had an offensive game plan.

I do wo der where they got a Sint Eustatius flag, and why they decided to put it in the front.
Probably a call out to liberal bull####.

So tired of this woke agenda being shoved down our throats even during THE GREATEST GAME ON EARTH.

I thought it was good but far from one of the best. But very enjoyable.

Most memorable shows for me include Prince, tribute to hip hop (that had Dre, Eminem and Snoop), and U2.

Visually the half time show was outstanding. The amount of choreography involved must have been insane.

I don’t know Bad Bunny’s music at all but it was fun. The energy was nonstop.

It was also super cool to see Gaga and Ricky Martin make surprise appearances. MAGA would love that an icon within the queer community and a gay Latino joined Mr Bunny.

Well things went my way today, and I won my playoff pool. So thanks to KW3 and A.J. Barner for coming through today and to the Seahawks defence for holding the Pats in check until the last 10 minutes.

I watched both half time shows, BB was great, loved Lady Gaga.
As for Kid Rock... what a great nickname for Epstein Island.

Fantastic win.
Utter domination on defense.

4 FGs was frustrating lead because it wasn’t reflecting the play and meant one play could turn the game around, but after 8 punts by the Pats and it was clear that MacDonald was outwitting McDaniels, and that the Pats were again just playing not to lose and hope for a turnover.

However as soon as Maye fumbled, and made that big mistake, basically game over. The TD to Barner sealed it and everything else was formality.

Walker gets the MVP basically for the first half performance. Those long runs took the pressure off Darnold and got Seattle basically 9 points.

Darnold played ok. No turnovers again, first team not to turn the ball over all playoffs and didn’t turn the ball over for 5 or 6 last games. There were a few undervotes early and a couple JSN didn’t grab which could’ve popped up and be the INT the Pats were relying on. But also made some good deep throws that require good defensive plays to prevent the Seattle TD that Vrabel knew his team couldn’t give up.

Out of the blue for the Seahawks through. The other Super Bowl appearances were built up over the previous seasons, but not this one. 3 losses by a total of 9 points all season, but even then, it came down to that game against the Rams that they won in OT. Lose and they play an extra game on the road and probably don’t beat the Rams in the NFCC.

Defense should stay solid with MacDonald throwing out great schemes and having players execute. How good does Lawrence coming over look. Williams resigning too. Secondary came into its own.

Ultra reliable kicker and punter and the Rasheed trade basically won the aforementioned regular season game vs the Rams along with the Charbonnet pick up of the two point convert.

Offense will be the project. Walker III about to get paid. JSN probably needs a bit more help. Darnold will have a new OC. Kubiak basically lead Sam the last 7 games and coached all the turnovers out of him by giving him manageable situations and calls. The next OC had to do that as well. Oline was much improved and made it easier for Darnold to stand in.

But the Seahawks play in the division with two excellent and excellently coached teams in the Rams and 49ers, who aren’t going away anytime soon. Razor thin margins got Seattle through this year but no guarantee it all falls into place next year with 4 games against those two teams.

But, savour it for the next months because they were an extremely solid and consistent well coached team all season to get the 17 wins they did.

I don't care about the half-time show in general, and Bad Bunny's music does nothing for me.

But seeing how it fried the tiny brains of the MAGA cultists makes me irrationally happy. But hey, you'll always have Kid Rock.

Wasn't a great night for Pats fans, but Drake "The Schedule" Maye did at least have a record last night, most passing yards in a single quarter in Super Bowl history with 235 yards in the fourth quarter. Might have been the GOAT garbage time performance cause box score wise he went from most humiliating line in SB history to what looks like a respectable line. Maybe we can add "Garbage Man" to the list of nicknames for Maye.

The Super Bowl was a fitting ending to one of the more forgettable NFL seasons in recent history. Hopefully QB play is better next season.

Them somehow turning the guy who was the 3rd most streamed artist in 2024, and most streamed artist in 2025, being the Super Bowl halftime show into some type of "Woke" agenda is ridiculous. Just shows how broken politics are and how political parties are just cults now.

it was the opposite of woke. The show featured an actual hetero marriage ceremony, a bunch of talk about Jesus, a traditional nuclear family watching TV, and a bunch of "God bless America" stuff. The only thing they object to is all of those brown people and their brown people language.

It's going to take me a while to forgive Bo Nix's ankle for forcing us to endure that Thursday Night Superbowl. Thanks for nothing jerk
