Holy ****, that game was like a Tyson fight in the late '80's.

I cant believe Peyton Manning had a super bowl record tonight with 34 completions
hardly even seemed like he threw it that much.....and obviously it didnt matter much!

I would love to know what the second half ratings were for that game. I mean, that was basically a first round TKO.

I think after the kickoff return a lot of people turned the game off

Except for the conspiracy loons that were waiting for deja vu to strike and the lights to go out

that was funny last year
I gotta say there werent too many "problems" with the NJ superbowl
(I thought the weather and the whole thing would be a mess)

This game reminded me of the game the Devils had against the Blackhawks this year :


Completely OVER-MATCHED.

 

[rtr1105]

I would've given Kam Chancellor MVP. He was a force over the middle who limited big plays with good open field tackles and his physicality. It was truly a team effort by the defense but he really stood out to me. You can't really go wrong with Smith though.

 

[Devils Dominion]

43 to 8

Who wound have thunk

That makes the game easier to watch.

"OMG Peyton is broken in half!!!"

 

[StvBroDan]

Good Call on the blow out RG

 

[Uli Hiemer]

the empire state building light show in honor of the seahawks was more entertaining than the game

 

[Desert Devil]

Congrats to the Seahawks on an awesome season. Really sucks for everyone else considering how that game went.

 

[Jersey Man]

Won $400!

Salary cap league with 170 people. Got sixth place.

mass transit game brah tell us all about it rogah goodell

taken at 1am of the handful of train lines that run into the meadowlands

What a debacle

 

[ThePSEGPowerPoster]

Only lost 50. Bet the over on the anthem and the Broncos to dress for the game and play.

Lost both.

I hope this story plays large and loud. That decision was dumb from the start - he needs to pay for it.

And I hope they get rid of the 2 week break and just go with a normal week between games. 2 weeks is too long - and nothing was hardly done during the extra week off - it's like they flipped a switch and went into hibernation mode then woke up 2 days before the game.

 

[NJDevs26]

I thought they were supposed to have increased train service the last two weeks lol...yikes. That's really bad considering 1 AM is THREE HOURS after the game ended. I mean Seattle fans probably don't care unless they missed flights back to the West Coast but imagine being a Denver fan stuck in that assuming you stayed long enough to see the presentation?

 

[NC107*]

A perfect defense, offense and special teams can crush any team especially the Orange. The only announcement forgotten before the start of the game was Manning's retirement before the game. Worst Super Bowl in many years in every category, location, travel, tailgates, half time shows and game.

 

[tr83]

They had 3 YEARS to get ready for this. There is NO excuse for this. A bunch of NJT execs need to publicly fired for this.

And it's great to see defense still win in this league. And the Hawks show how bad the rest of the defensive backs are in this league.

 

[ThePSEGPowerPoster]

It's odd because they did interview a handful of the thousands and that handful said "everything was great! no travel problems!" Wonder if it's just Goddell trying to get the agenda machine rolling.

 

[sbresistor]

they didn't learn from that U2 concert a couple years ago - similar ********

What seems to have made this one worse is the limitations on driving. I mean I can't remember the last event where they essentially eliminated over half of the parking. Metlife has approx. 26k parking spots and they eliminated half. They wanted to encourage public transportation.

Also you couldn't take a cab to the game, a private car, or anything that wanted to leave. The policy was "one way traffic only." So whoever dropped you off had to stay for the remainder of the game.

NJ Transit's double car can take 1800 people. Figure an additional 200 to cram. 2000 per train on 2 tracks when you're forcing 75 to 80% of the stadium to take public transit is just bad news bears.

 

[Wingman77]

It gets even worse....

Way to go Roger Goodell! Because 3-4 train lines will be able to swiftly move the estimated 33K fans that used mass transit

 

[NJDevs26]

lol maybe it was more hanky-pank from Christie causing another traffic jam
