The Football By Football Super Bowl LI Pregame Show: Falcons vs Patriots

The REAL THING Patriots Podcast

The guys are back with an 11th hour pregame breakdown show for Super Bowl L1 in Houston. All the media fluff and off-field storylines are in the rearview, the guys dive into the details of what will ultimately decide the contest between the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots. After a week of discussion about prolific passing games, what role will the running games of these two teams have in deciding the champion -- and is it ultimately just as (or more) important as all the passing game talk with Matt Ryan and Tom Brady. What factor will experience play in the contest, and how from a players point of view does this materialize in a game? What are players doing in these final 24 hours before the game and how can these final details show up in the performance? And finally, Chatham shares a story from his Super Bowl experience, how Bill Belichick suprised the players the night before their contest against the Eagles in Jacksonville with a move that put a cloud of silence over the room. Each of the guys makes their Super Bowl picks with their rationale for why. Enjoy!
