What happened that seemed scripted to you?
Well, the Falcons head coach and assistants just kind of watched stoically while Tom Brady first caught the Patriots up (by hitting a bunch of too-open receivers), and then when overtime happened it seemed like they laid down, like they might as well have sent high schoolers out there. And nobody on the Falcons seemed miffed at blowing the lead at the end of the game when everybody dispersed. Last year for the Rams super bowl against the Patriots my theory is that someone paid them to not bring their A game to let Tommy get another trophy and they took it to heart and didn't do anything. It's also possibly why they had that blatant non-PI call for the Saints because they weren't sure the Saints would take a payoff or lose to Tommy in a legit game.
