By John Sarianides Sorry Patriots fans, I hate playing the part of Patriots detractor but the fact of the matter is, the Falcons gave Super Bowl 51 away. Thanks to bad play calling and bad game management, the Patriots were able to overcome a 25 point deficit and rally for a 34-28 overtime win. I am not taking anything away from the great Tom Brady or the Patriots. Brady was…
I love it! Tom Brady not only shoved it up Roger Goodell’s last night, he also shoved up Goodell’s ass in this commercial. Revenge sure is a sweet. Good for Brady. He deserves it. He is a class act and a good man and he doesn’t deserve what he’s been through.
By John Sarianides Super Bowl LI might go down as one of the three greatest Super Bowl games of all time. It was an instant classic. The Patriots overcame a 25 point deficit to stun the Atlanta Falcons. Here are ten thoughts on the game. 1. Tom Brady is not only the greatest quarterback of all time, he is the greatest football player of all time. I love Jerry Rice…
Game Rewind: WOW! The Patriots overcame a 25 point deficit and beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28. With the win, the Patriots are bringing home their fifth Lombardi Trophy and second in the last three years. Here are five thoughts on this historic and improbable comeback by the Patriots. 1. Tom Brady Was Once Again a Football God: Forget about the numbers! Brady is the greatest football player of all time! Period!…
By John Sarianides It’s Super Bowl Sunday folks! After two weeks of dissecting this match up between the Patriots and the Falcons, its game time! Here are some final thoughts I have prior to kick off. 1. Both teams need to start fast offensively, especially the Patriots. They have been notoriously slow starters in their previous six Super Bowls. 2. The more I think about it, I would defer if…
By John Sarianides The 2017 Hall of Class was revealed tonight at the NFL Honors. Here my thoughts. 1. LaDainian Tomlinson getting in on the first ballot is not a surprise. Tomlinson is the fifth leading rusher all time and one of the five best offensive players of his generation. 2. I’ve come around to Kurt Warner getting in. The career numbers aren’t going to jump out at you but…
By John Sarianides Super Bowl LI is finally upon us. After two weeks of breaking down the game and talking about it incessantly, it is time to play football. On paper, both of these teams are pretty evenly matched. Even Vegas thinks so. That is why they have installed the Patriots as three point favorites. Both teams are led by their quarterbacks.

By John Sarianides The New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons are mirror images of each other in all three phases of the game. Both teams have elite quarterbacks, diverse rushing attacks and play makers at wide receiver and tight end. Defensively, both teams play team oriented defense. It is about proper pursuit angles and team tackling. There are some good players on both defenses but there is no J.J Watt…
By Michael Vallee OK, so it’s not the sexiest opponent the NFC could muster for the final game of the 2016 season. The Falcons franchise conjures up memories of the Patriots opposition in Super Bowl XXXVIII, the Carolina Panthers, another AFC South franchise with minimal history and zero titles. While the Falcons have been around significantly longer than the Panthers they haven’t exactly accomplished much in that time,…
