Tom Brady's GREATEST Comeback Patriots vs. Falcons . Super Bowl 51 Highl...




Atlanta did everything to let New England back in the game when The Falcons had a 28-3 lead with 2:02 minutes left in the 3rd Quarter. The Falcons had 3 Consecutive holding penalties when the Patriots were going to be 3 and out and Atlanta allowed New England to get first downs. The Falcons took sacks when they had a chance to put the game away getting first downs. The Falcons have no one but themselves for blowing this huge lead that they had over the Patriots. Atlanta #25 ranked defensed showed in the 4th Quarter and in overtime as their defense self-destructed allowing 31 unanswered points by the Patriots. The Falcons even allowed a tip sure fire interception that they would have had to be caught by Julian Edelman from a Tom Brady pass to help set up New England to tie the game in regulation when Atlanta was up 28-20. Like players always say when they are playing for a championship, "Make the most of the opportunities when they are there because you never know if that opportunity to play for a championship will happen again for your team." New England made a big statement in their come from behind win and Tom Brady wanted to prove to Roger Goodell, the NFL Commissioner, that the 4 game regular season suspension that Brady served sparked a fire that motivated Brady and the Patriots. Patriots 34 Falcons 28 in overtime says it all.
