    Tom Brady best priced 7/4 with Hills to be the MVP looks good to me. The winning team QB usually gets it so it's better value than backing the Pats to win at around 10/11.

    Here's hoping Katy Perry has a Janet Jackson moment during the halftime show.

    I think we should do something like this at half-time at Oakwell.

    Only just. If they hadn't been an interception right at the end on the goal line Seahawks would have retained the title and their QB would have been MVP instead. Little disapointed I wasn't braver as Hills offered a 3/1 special of Pats to win and Rob Gronkowski to score a touchdown. Despite an interception Brady can be very happy with four touchdown passes.

    I admit I gave up when they were 10 points down and throwing it away deep in the 3rd quarter and went to bed. Having beaten the spread by 1 point I'm now gutted I didn't stay up and watch it or at least watch it from recording this morning before seeing the result. Still, at least I won a few quid.

    That call to throw the pass by the Seahawks was bloody mental !! If you have a running back like theirs surely you have to give him a crack at getting the ball in to the end zone? Or let the QB carry it in, he has showed he can bloody run and break tackles all match !! Stupid call, but it was a fantastic end to the game.

    I agree with every word. Even someone with very little NFL knowledge would know when you're that close to the line to run the ball to take out the possibility of an interception. Seahawks running game was going so well and now the QB will have to live with his decision. The celebration of Tom Brady jumping up and down on the sideline said it all.

    I am certain it was down to the coach.
    I think they were expecting the Pats to expect a run and thought they would surprise them, but in my eyes you have to give the runnning back at least one go at it first. They had time outs left too!

    Pete Carrol the head coach made the call and now has to live with his mistake.
    He admitted it was his fault,the offensive coach was going to do a run play on that 2nd down and 3rd down if they hadnt made it, Pete Carrolover ruled the decision.
    But what a great night for the guy who intercepted,Rookie season and his first ever interception.
