Pats/Panthers is probably the hardest hitting SB football I've watched, they pounded the shit out of each other in the first half. Anyone who likes hard hitting D, loved the first half of that game. Second half was a shootout, game had it all.
Giants/Pats was also hard hitting, but it was basically one team unleashing the punishment.
No, it had none of those things, but neither do 38 other Superbowls. They can't all be the greatest game of all time. This was a good game between two solid teams. In 10 years time, no one will be talking about Pit/Ari either, except true fans (and hatersDeaconKnowledge said:

I never said anything about greatest of all time, I said memorable. This Super Bowl won't be memorable because it didn't have any of these things. The shit performance the WHO had will be more memorable than the game.
Even when Pitt/Ari is a memory, we'll still see the II and Holmes' catch.

That's a load of shit, I watched several hours of the pregame show and it was all about the Saints and their hardships.
Plus, people picked the Saints to win so that's also completely false.

Yeah, maybe some of us down here in the South. But elsewhere, the media definitely were expecting the Saints to lose. Maybe we should go back to the beginning of this thread and see the predictions. Cuz I can guarantee you will see alot of "Saints lose" scores.
It's the only Superbowl we have ever won. For a city that's battered by crime and past Hurricanes, you would think people would be happy for New Orleans
Maybe, but most of the coverage I saw was very slanted toward Manning and an almost inevitability that the Colts would certainly win. The Colts are methodical, they didn't lose any game they actually tried, Saints D sucks etc, etc etc. Most of the Saints coverage focused on their franchise history of futility, which honestly has been a bit overstated since they've been decent to average the past 20 years. Only a couple of truly terrible seasons in that run, like the Katrina 05 season. The others fell on Ditka's watch. They were a decent team under Mora and Haslett.eznark said:

Not saying most didn't pick the Colts, just laughing at the notion that no one predicted the Saints to win.
Even Bill Cowher had them winning or one of the main guys on the coverage today.

Most people don't hate him. Not like Brady or Favre anyway. But him being compared or even straight up called better then Montana is offensive.

I don't hate Manning, I just think it super lulz when he loses.
That and I can do things like this:
Ahem....
Roethlisberger > Manning.

People dislike Brady, because he's good and Ben because he's a phony carried by defense. The reason they dislike Manning is same as Brady... he's the best. It's been Brady/Manning since the start of the decade.
I'm just going to toss in the Pats went on a 17 game win streak after they were found to be "cheating" and broke just about every offensive record there is. just saying though.

NO was nowhere near as big underdogs as NY was a couple of years ago, or the pats were in 02, but they were still underdogs. Most expected Indy win somewhat modestly, 7-10 points. I'm not trying to play this "oh, the media hates us, never respects our team, coach, ect" act when its not true. I'm not a UNC fan. I know the Saints got plenty of love, but in terms of the significance of the game, the school of thought seemed to be, well the Saints finally got here, thanks for playing, Peyton Manning, god among men.

Montana had better teams, one guy can't do it all by himself.
Manning is as good, if not better than Montana, in passing accuracy.
And Montana is the best quarterback I ever saw play.

wat
Steelers/Cards owned this game. That moment when the Cards completed the comeback from being down 20-7 was amazing. And then the brilliant drive by Ben culminating in the amazing Holmes catch. If the Cards had won that game and held on to the comeback, it would have been even better.
