The NFL’s first Super Bowl in Las Vegas was a sloppy, mistake-filled affair that was mostly boring until the back-and-forth fourth quarter and OT. It was the second of 58 Super Bowls to go to overtime.
lol this coming from an AP article makes me chuckle.
Second OT in Super Bowl history… both lost by Kyle Shanahan teams after a comeback by the opposition.
This is a perfectly apt description… My background allows me to appreciate highly defensive games, but my GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD are the boooooooring
I’m of the very vast minority that LOVED the massive defense going. I love defensive games where it’s a battle of attrition and taking advantage of errors. It’s so good to me and I can’t stand high scoring games.
I’m a hockey guy though, so maybe that’s part of it? I like to see all parts of the system doing their part and not a single part of it (e.g., offense only) dominating.
