I don't mind this halftime show. Gaga did pretty well I think.

GO FALCONS!

I can show you how to do a dirty bird but then if I posted it the mods would be on me like the Falcons on Brady

We are eagle eyed. :p

So far as I understand it the Falcons are flying rings around the Patriots, Brady is deflating like a football, and nothing exciting/scandalous happened at half time.

Maybe the Pats can get somebody to turn out the lights or something while the Falcons have the ball on their next drive? No?

If any team can come back from an 18 point deficit, it's gonna be the Patriots. That being said, the Falcons are playing very well, especially on defense. The Patriots need to play sound defense and protect Brady to have a chance at making a comeback.

Turnovers. They need that and points off them. I don't really see it happening, but that slender thread of hope does still indeed remain for Pats fans.

Correction, it was 21-6 at half in SB 47, Jacoby Jones ran second half kickoff back for a TD to make it 28-6.

Well they went three and out to open and Edelman had a nice return. So that helps the Patriots.
