“The Greatest Super Bowl of All Time” is what many have dubbed Super Bowl LI.

The game featured a powerhouse New England Patriots against the rising underdog Atlanta Falcons. The fact that the Patriots had previously won four NFL championships and that the Falcons have never won a Super Bowl garnered a large bias among casual watchers to favor Atlanta.

The first half was completely one sided. The Falcons ran up the score to 21-3 by halftime. It looked like Patriots quarterback Tom Brady wasn’t going to get his 5th ring after all.

Immediately, after halftime the Falcons scored again, giving them a 25-point lead at 28-3. At this point, most people thought the game was over without a chance for the Patriots to win.

However, the world learned to never count Brady out before the end of the last quarter.

In the 4th quarter Brady threw a pass that should have been intercepted, but Julian Edelman made an amazing catch with three defenders all over him,  keeping the drive going.

That play began an unbelievable come from behind never witnessed in a Super Bowl before. After Brady and company tied up the score at 28, the game went into the first overtime period in Super Bowl history.

The Pats got lucky with the coin flip, giving them the first possession in which they drove the ball down the field like it was nothing. It was 2nd down and goal and Brady threw a little screen pass to James White for the touchdown securing the W and getting Brady his 5th ring.

Even though I heavily dislike the outcome over the game, I have to give it to Brady. He lead his team from a 25-point deficit to produce one of the greatest comeback wins in NFL history. This could cement the case that he is the best quarterback to ever play the game.
