Many sportsbooks thought they have the Super Bowl LI results in the bag with the Atlanta Falcons winning the title.
The results were looking bad for the New England Patriots at the start of the Super Bowl as the team struggled 21-3 against the underdogs. Even the face of Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is painted with dejection as he look up at the end of the first half.
But something happened to the Patriots in between the halftime that awakens the fire inside Brady and his teammates, including Julian Edelman. Was it because of Lady Gaga’s less politically charge and more shiny, shimmering diverse Super Bowl halftime party? Or was it the pessimism of their fans, who poked fun of the team on the internet.
Whatever that it is, it sure helped the patriots turn the tide in their favor and stunned the Falcons like danger in the second half, before sending the underdogs a devastating tsunami to end the game 34-28 in overtime.
