Am I the only one who thought this was a somewhat pedestrian Super Bowl, outside of maybe 3-4 plays? Obviously the onside kick and the pick-6 were awesome.. but aside from that, it was kinda lackluster.
Big ups to the Saints though, most importantly their defense which could've collectively received the game MVP. Prototypical bend-but-don't-break performance.
I suppose that depends on your perspective.
Majorirty had this as a Indy blow out. Some had this as a 34-37 type game where both teams went up and down the field. In either of those cases I could see some disappointed.
to Miller's point though I loved this game. This was a classic game of two excellent Qbs, using what was given, managing the clock, getting points when they needed to. Also you had defense step up and make huge plays when needed. Indy stopping TWO potential Td drives (Sack by Freeney and goal line stand..) and even the Saints with a goal line stand AND a pick 6 to seal the game.
I loved this game. It had it all, good offense, key defense, drama with both Qbs playing their games. Key players making the most of what they could (P.Thomas comes to mind here...).
