WTF: I'm outraged that Tom Brady was the MVP. He better give that truck to Malcolm Butler #21.

Calm the fvck down.

Shut up and make me some waffles. ...but in all seriousness, you're right.

Wrong on all accounts. It isn't easy to complete 37 passes on the Seahawks. Regardless of the type of pass. Brady's throws had to be quick, perfectly timed and well placed. If it were as simple as throwing a high volume of quick passes everyone would do it and the Seattle defense would be among the league's worst. New England made no secret about their plan of attack and it still worked. You are essentially an idiot. Teams don't complete 74%of their passes against the LOB. Unless Brady is their QB. Stop posting please...

...that the cheater won?

It's like when the Brits toss off "I'm shattered," and then you inquire to make sure, like, no one in their family died. And then they say "oh no, I'm just tired, long weekend."

Edelman should have won the MVP.

Had the Seattle receiver just run faster, the ball wouldn't have been intercepted and Russell Wilson would have been MVP.

All blame on the receiver. Not Pete Carroll for a poor call. Not the LOB defense that gave up TWO 4th quarter TDs in the biggest game of the year to give the Patriots the lead.

328 passing yards against a defense that had allowed only 185.6 per game during the regular season.

Seattle only allowed a league low 17 passing touchdowns during the regular season, but gave up 4 last night.

Not surprised they picked Brady and he certainly played well enough, but if I were king, it would have been Edelman.

You don't get to be the MVP of the entire game for making one good play.

No single player on that team did more to win that game than Tom Brady.

Easy decision.

I really don't understand how the word "outraged" gets thrown around.

What killed me was seeing Seattle make questionable decisions all night and when they work out, the announcers are like "Brilliant play call! That's why Pete Carroll is such a genius," but when it doesn't work out he's a moron.

Announcers are usually all over the place.

Example: Sometime (late) in the 3rd quarter, they mentioned how Seattle was just dominating Josh McDaniels' (Patriots OC) offense and he needed to do something to fix it. Halfway thru the 4th quarter, they were praising McDaniels' play-calling.

Not once did they call out Seattle's vaunted "Legion of Boom" defense. If you (they) think of themselves as a great all-time unit, you don't give up two 4th quarter TDs in the biggest game of the year.

I think Brady deserved it.

The Patriots couldn't run the ball. So if they were going to beat the best defense in the NFL, it would have to be Tom Brady all by himself, without even a running game to keep the defense honest. And he pulled it off. He wasn't perfect - he had those pics. But he put the team on his back and did the heavy lifting for the team.

It was clear , even though no points were scored early, that the Pats could move the ball., If not for the absurd INT in the end zone, and another one the PATS win easy.

I thought Edelman was the MVP, for all the hype of the Seahawk DBs he had 9 catches for 109 yards.

Pete Caroll lost that game, plain and simple. How do you not run Lynch from the 1 yard line on only 2nd down.

Then call TO, then run read option if you have to and if it is not there, throw ball into stands, and still get a fourth down play.

and absurd call with a team of avg. receivers, get the ball to your WORST playmakers?

Lynch makes a yard on anger alone.

Lynch's record from 1 yd out is not good. But I agree they should have tried it.

Yeah, Brady doesn't really need the truck as much as Butler. (though Brady does have a brother in law..who doesn't have a contract anymore...he may like it..lol!!!

Bulter did make a few defensive mistakes that even allowed the Seahawks to even get to the one yard line. Bulter made one super play.

Brady made at least great plays. The passes to Gronk, Edelman (a bunch), and Amendola and Leffal.

LOL. The irony...

What are the chances that a spelling and grammar scold misspells BOTH words in their post? I think pretty low. Smaller even than Tom Brady not being the MVP of a Super Bowl in which he plays.

As a Pats fan Brady is the heart and soul of that team. He kept them focused and ready to go. That aside, you are aware how many yards Malcom had given up? He had been toasted by Wilson and Co. That is why they targeted him on that play. He was considered an easy target.

#21 Malcolm Butler won the game for them. How in God's name could he not be the MVP?

Not really. Seattle didn't like the match up since New England had loaded the box. They also have been using Lynch as a decoy all year on the goal line. They had two more downs to use Lynch. I think this was a decent play call that went horribly wrong.
