Good evening gents (and ladies),
I promise not to bring up the interception. It's been beaten and beaten again....then again......yup, one more time. But not this time.
I'd like to focus on the REAL last play of the Super Bowl and I'd like to see if anyone wants to play 'what if'?
After the play, the Pats get the ball back on the 1 or so. From what I can see, Brady has no room to kneel down.
So "What If"?
What if Bennett doesn't jump offsides? What do you see happening?
Obviously can't kneel. They take the safety and punt the ball away and give the Hawks the ball back probably around mid field, down by two with a time out. Or do they try it?
Say Brady attempts a sneak? Does he risk a fumble and Hawks recovery for game over? Does he risk not getting out of the end zone and taking the safety eating up a few precious seconds? Does he roll out, throw it away multiple times to eat up more time?
Try a running play? Risk not getting out and safety or fumble?
So again, I'd like to hear from all you fine folks about how you think the Pats would have played it?
It's crazy to think about, but while I was so mind blown about the pick, I still had a touch of hope that the Hawks might either get the safety and get the ball back or turn it over. I wasn't completely resigned to the loss until the offsides penalty.
