Pat and Andy embrace after the final Interception is what got me.
Pat was so happy, and happy for Andy. Andy was happy but tried to remain calm and gave Pat just a little more coaching (because Andy couldn't help it) about taking the clock all the way down;...until the end when Andy kissed his QB and let out a "ha ha". That was awesome to me.
especially considering Andy is usually so, so reserved on the field and doesn't really express himself until after games. [Reply]

Bree’s obviously blows both away with his X and Os knowledge. His body language, arms and legs went from closed to open, An expression of “I love and accept this and want to talk about how awesome this is”.
You can see why Brees has achieved well beyond his physical abilities. Dude is a mental juggernaut.
It could also be that Brees is still playing and up to speed on the latest exotic defenses.
Joe probably never saw a Seattle cover 3 match. Joe also might be getting a little fuzzy. He sounds like my uncles. :-)
It was weird it didn't seem like Favre was rooting for KC but then at the end he did seem happy for Andy. [Reply]

I think it is likely that Favre wasn't annoyed, but nervous. I was crossing my arms and rubbing my neck too. [Reply]

I watched about the last 50 minutes while at work (lol). We all read people slightly different, and I agree with most things that have already been said.
But, when Jimmy was sacked on 4th & 10, Joe very subtly said "damn". I don't blame him for wanting the Niners to win-- that's his first team, his first (and last) Super Bowls, so obviously he's emotionally more vested in them.
I think no small part Favre-- when he watches Mahomes--might be a *teeny* bit jealous. Say what you want, but all young QBs with a cannon for an arm are compared to Favre, ultimately. I think he knows, just by watching that PMII is likely better than he is.
Brees' body language to me says that he is completely dialed in on the game; that guy wants to be on the field. He sees what's happening with clarity, and he's synthesizing what's happening as an elite level QB. He respects both teams, shows no bias, and is far more mentally engaged than punchy Joe Montana, or a cooly disinterested Favre. [Reply]

Yeah, I really can't think of a reason Favre would be pro-Niners. IIRC Andy brought him in before to meet Pat. I assume he's friends with both of them. [Reply]
I think you just have three QBs that are seeing the game through the eyes of the QB position. They probably can't help themselves; they're reading the D, internally making adjustments, mentally running through the play as they would have. They probably can't watch the game as just a fan. The emotional part probably didn't really hit Joe or Favre until the end of the game.
But Joe is watching as if he were a Niner, while Favre is watching as if he were a Packer. Probably reliving past games or whatever. [Reply]

That's what I think. He was reminded of the past, and was reacting accordingly. [Reply]

That was interesting and boring at the same time. Knowing where to fast forward to and what actually happened made it watchable.
You could tell they were all rooting for SF there. Joe shows again why he didn't make it on TV. He's like watching w/grampa who doesn't say much. On the other side, it looked like an interview for Brees. I think he'll be in the booth next year. [Reply]
Every day the tears of the salty whiners fans become more delicious. On their forum they have a 28 page thread whining about the refs. The 3rd and 15 play is their go to. The still pictures everyone cried about do look bad, but when you actually watch the play live from different angles. Bosa runs a stunt inside and Fisher rides his momentum and blocks him clean.

It would suck to have a camera in your face for 3 hours, exposed in those shitty seats.
It looked really uncomfortable and awkward.
Put these guys in recliners and couches with some cocktails. [Reply]
