With just over eight minutes to go in the third quarter, Falcons running back Tevin Coleman scampered into the end zone to extend Atlanta’s lead over New England to 28-3, which led to Skip Bayless firing off a tweet championing the Dirty Birds. This may or may not have caused Murphy’s Law to come into effect. Everything that could go wrong for ATL did go wrong, and the Patriots completed the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, overcoming a 25-point deficit to give Tom Brady his fifth championship ring.
Well, that’s it. The Atlanta Falcons are Super Bowl champions.

I haven’t seen a lead blown this badly since Hilary’s 2016 campaign.
Sorry I had to get in on this meme 😏😂😂
