And for those that consider Witherspoon overrated you could probably make an argument that he was the MVP.

You are correct, he was so awesome. I for one was glad he was on the team, but thought he was overrated. But, he sure rose up in the biggest game. Love seeing it, and glad I was wrong.

To a man last night they talked about their teammates being their brothers, they talked about creating chemistry. These are Professional athletes....I told my wife that it makes me hope that my players are watching this. I'm sure they weren't, but I feel like what I tell them about good teammates and chemistry and comradery goes in one ear and out the other. The Super Bowl Champs and their coaching staff talk about it. Hell, I was at a Coaching Convention not that long ago and many sessions focused on it. Northwestern, Oregon and Cal State Fullerton coaches all had very interesting training sessions on it. Culture is intentional. This Hawks team got it.
That's interesting, someone here months ago posted about players, like young players playing for the paycheck these days. I meant to respond because I don't believe it, yeah money has entered into it. But still what drives things is the camaraderie, the culture, the chance to be part of something. That's really what motivates, I mean beyond football, tribalism. And successful coaches build on that.

Just gonna say it... Dickson is the man. His punting is a thing of beauty.

Cool, I remembered it coming up. He's really a special player

Highest paid punter in the game sure earned his paycheck! LOL Every single facet of the game was pretty much owned by Seattle last night.
It says a lot how difficult the question of "who should be MVP" was. They all showed up. They all played well, with maybe, IMO,
the exception of Darnold. Darnold did not "fuck it up" though, so in a sense he showed up too. If Darnold leads his receivers like they
taught him in junior high, there would have been way more points and less stress.

Spoon was a monster out there, and you know who else had an outstanding game? Jobe. He was on guys like glue.

Dickson and Myers were money. Seven punts and not one of them resulted in good field position for the Patriots, and five field goals add up.

Of if he leads JSN a little less? That would have been an 80+ yard TD. I also am not sure what Shaheed was doing late. He is running by the defender, raises his arms like he is catching the ball, puts his arms down, runs a bit more and then he can't reach the ball. Why in the world did he throw his arms up early? At full speed I thought he was trying to draw a holding call, but when they replayed it? It actually looks like he thinks the ball is there.

Jobe did play well. He also got lucky to not get a huge penalty (or thrown out) for his extra curricular spaz out.

Nate Scheelhaase.

Rams passing game coordinator. I love the way they fling it around. Also hurts the Rams.
