The most amusing part about this thread is I'd wager if you look at the history of the people complaining, they are the same ones that complain about the game being too long and constantly whining about how long it takes for the replays and the duration of the game. This was one of the most efficient games of the year as far as duration and yet people are still whining. You simply can't win.

What does efficient mean??

People want the championship decided by the same rules as every other game. Thats not an unreasonable expectation. Nobody is "whining".

How about you look up the history smartass, or are you too lazy to do that with your straw man argument??

Lets see:
Cooks .... helmet to helmet
Foles catches TD ..... illegal formation
Clement TD .... lost possession
Ertz 4th and one ....false start on guard
Ertz 4th and one ...... illegal pick
Ertz TD ...... also lost possession
Hail Mary ....... illegal contact
There must be more ..... I guess this was the crookedest SuperBowl ever played

I'm still happy and proud

The guard moved on the play. It’s clear as day. If called, which it should’ve been, it’s 4th and 6 and Eagles punt. That was the biggest missed call
What about Amendola getting stripped you can clearly hear the whistle after the ball was out. That's a drive that produced 7 for NE and the player that recovered the ball was running the other way when the whistle blew so that fumble not counting salvaged 7 for NE and may have saved more Eagles points. I'd have to say that's a pretty big play that was missed.
There was also a good case for PI on the Eagles first 2 point try also a big play.
Bottom line when you dissect a game play by play in stop and slow motion you will aways find stuff but we live with what's called and not called and when the smoke clears Eagles Win ....... Google It!

No offense to you, Eagles played great and deserved to win, but IF the ball was out OR the ref hadn't blown the whistle, thats the Patriots ball anyway cause the guy who recovered went out of bounds then came back in and was the first to touch it. Would have been dead ball going Patriots way.

Nice try but it wasn't a pass. On a fumble once your back in bounds you CAN be the first to touch it. Sorry those are the rules.

The flags aren’t thrown much in the SB. They let a lot of things go.

The Ertz TD was a catch, he took 2-3 Full steps before diving. I thought it was clearly a catch.

The Clement TD should have been incl based on the rule. The ball was moving before 2 feet down.

Having said that Philly deserved that game, and I bet the other side
your comments are true and accurate
