For those who promised to not watch the game

[ProcessTheTrust]

We all can make bold statements from time to time. Watching Foles pull off that performance is a reminder that no one can predict the NFL future. So fess up....did you keep your word or not?

I didn't watch, and you all can thank me. I'm the Patriots Super Bowl comeback good luck charm. Every time I swear I am not watching those stinkers in a Super Bowl, I cave at halftime - because the other team is winning at the half and I want to enjoy the Cheatriots defeat.

This time, I did not cave and things worked out as they should.

Thank you, haha! Also, as you must know by now, you missed an incredible game!

I can watch it somewhere on youtube or nfl.com, and I may - since I liked the outcome.

I tuned in once I thought the game was over, but 2 minutes were left, so I watched the last 1:56 of the game.

You had to wait a little longer for This is Us? JK!

I said I wasn't going to watch because I have other interests and priorities in life.

 

Also, I live in a forest without cable TV and I thought I would have to pay extra to stream the SB.  When I found out I didn't, I watched hours of pregame as well as the game itself.

And I'm glad I did.  That was a fun game - lots of offense and a satisfying finish.

I did not watch the game. I watched other re-run games from 2017.

 

Now that it is over and Knowing there is something something worth watching, I WILL watch it when it becomes available on League Pass.

I wasn't planning on watching but ended up watching.  Glad I did, it was a helluva game

[ProcessTheTrust]

I love the honesty! That's what this game is all about. Most of us were sure without a doubt Foles couldn't step up to this stage...and most of us are sitting with a mouth full of crow. I get the passion to say you wouldn't watch for the most part, but to purposely avoid the biggest game of the year takes next level stubbornness. And those who followed through, hats off to you. I could care less what I promised a forum. I'm watching the game!

Did anyone notice that they had the actual super bowl footage from YESTERDAY on in the background of that show?  Really wild how they did that.

Really? No, I don't watch it. My wife does, I'll have to ask if she noticed.

I taped it and followed it on Gamecenter and the TBD game thread.  Watched it after the game last night.  No regrets - my wife (watching in other room) even commented afterwards how I would have been going crazy with F bombs at certain points and it was probably a good decision

[SoCal Deek]

Really cool! They had the NE tip interception on the TV in the background. Pretty cool.

Ah...so you were just gung-ho on not contributing to the ratings but still followed? Guess that counts!

[Doc]

I watched but without my Nielsen monitor on.

[KD in CA]

I didn't watch a play or follow the game in any way.  Instead I went to a little Mediterranean place (no TVs) for dinner with a friend.  Around 10 ET I instinctively went to check my phone but stopped after realizing it would only disrupt the nice evening I was having.  As we were leaving about 45 minutes later I got a notification from my news app that the Eagles had won.  I happily drove home and watched the highlights.   

 

My only regret was not having done the same last year.

I didn't watch.  I might later on a replay.  But, if the league is going to allow the refs to continually give that one team every break possible, just so they can be the greatest dynasty of ever... Then I have zero interest in watching them play.   ...other than when they play the Bills.

[Dr. Who]

I didn't watch and I have no desire to see any of it.  Glad for Frank Reich, otherwise, couldn't care less.

One of the best super bowls of all time.  I get that some are more fans of the Bills than of the game itself - but if you’re a fan of the game, that wasn’t one to miss.
