Personally I think it was one of the best played Super Bowls. Maybe I was watching a different game, but that game sure as hell wasn't boring.

The officiating was what it was. I don't think it determined the outcome of the game, so no problem there. As far as S. Holmes, that will go down as one of the greatest/clutch catches in Super Bowl history. And how about Darnell Dockett?

A ton of great individual performances, great play calling, and awesome team effort on both sides places this one at the top for me.

Darnell Dockett has prison muscles. That's the only way to describe that beast.

I've been watching the NFL since '77 (damn I'm old) and that was the best SB I've seen. I thought it was over when Fitz caught his TD to be honest. If they didn't rule that last play a fumble, I'm not sure the Cards don't get a very good shot at the end zone. Anyone who criticizes either team's play from yesterday was watching a different game than me.

Not sure if I would say it was the best SB ever, I think the dust needs to settle on it a bit to gain some perspective. It was a ho-hum game for a while but the end was very exciting. I thought the Cards were going to steal it.

Is it just me but I am starting to think the NFL is a little bit fixed. So many "crazy" games of late. There was a time where the Super Bowl was just a blow out now every year it is an amazing finish.

The penalities really did make a differnce in this game and the booth reviews.

At one point I was just waiting for Big Ben to come out and hit Kurt on the head with a metal chair when the refs were not looking. NFL=WWE

Been watching the Super Bowl sinc XVII and this ranks as one of the best (taking away the 3 Skins wins of course). My favorite of all time is still the Rams vs Titans. But this was a great game, reminded me of the Pats vs Panthers where it's an enjoyable game but then totally took off in the 4th quarter.

The game was decent and the final 5 minutes were exciting but I never could shake the fact that the Arizona Cardinals were representing the NFC. One of the reasons I hate parity is the Super Bowl is no longer a game of the two best in their divisions. I think this would have been a great Monday Night Football game. Not a great Super Bowl, though.

I'm sorry but the Warner fumble not being questioned with less than 20 seconds was BS. On top of that Holmes TD was not a TD after watching closely you can see his other foot did not touch the ground after he caught the ball. This super bowl was boring as hell except for the last 7 minutes or so. Also James Harrison is MVP because that INT he returned for a TD was the biggest game changer EVER in SB history!

That's just incorrect.

If not for that pick 6, they just may have.

I was also wondering why the corner went for the ball instead of trying to push Santonio Holmes out of bounds...stupid.

That's just incorrect.

My wife kept saying that his right foot was only touching his left foot but never touched the ground. They never gave us a good enough angle to actually see if the toes of his right foot hit the turf. It was really close.

As for the game overall, I'll agree w/Mike Golic who said it was a great 4th quarter but there was some sloppy play prior to that.

Calls were big, I thought the personal foul on Dansby was bogus & yet Warner took several hits that were just as 'late.' But I think they at least called the holding well, and they got Pitt for it in the end zone. Fitzgerald got held a lot.
