    It's really great from about a dozen angles, including Brady leaving his rings with Mayfield and Emmitt's "more yards" comment when Barry runs by. The catalyst being Lynch trying to sneak some cake was perfect.

    The Immaculate Reception is totally telegraphed once you see the tip.

    Kinda surprised they didn't get Namath to make a guarantee of somesort

    I think this is right:

    Marshawn Lynch knocks the ball off the cake…

    Leading to a worried Peyton Manning….

    And Mike Singletary yelling Fumble!...

    Christian McCaffrey is the first to dive for it…

    Ndamukong Suh is the second to dive…

    Joe Montana picks it and looks for Jerry Rice…

    As Michael Irvin begs him not to…

    Before Deion Sanders picks him off…

    And Brian Urlacher pummels Prime Time…

    To the delight of the 72 Dolphins – Larry Little, Paul Warfield and Larry Csonka – drinking champagne like they do every year when the last undefeated team loses…

    Todd Gurley takes off with ball…

    And pitches it to Barry Sanders…

    As Emmitt Smith makes sure to remind you what side of the “Who’s better, Emmitt or Barry?” debate he is on…

    Peyton is back to throw, but he tells Michael Strahan it hurts when he does…

    Ladanian Tomlinson catches the pass anyway….

    Until Ed Reed knocks the crap out of him…

    And Jim Brown says it’s a great party….

    Tom Brady leaves his rings with Baker Mayfield….

    While Terry Bradshaw is terrorized by Aaron Donald…

    And his throw to Larry Fitzgerald is tipped by Jalen Ramsey...

    But luckily Franco Harris is there for an Immaculate Reception…

    To the delight of Mean Joe Greene…

    Before JuJu Smith-Schuster runs across the table….

    And Patrick Mahomes says what’s up to Russell Wilson as he throws a no-look pass to Odell Beckham Jr…

    Ref Sarah Thomas rules a first down after Ron Torbert confirms the catch…..

    Before Tony Gonzalez gets flipped by Von Miller….

    Causing Dick Butkus to worry about the cake…

    Richard Sherman then tries to get the ball from 15-year-old Sam Thomas…

    Who pitches to Saquon Barkley to end it.

    It was Samantha Gordon - I was wondering why Emma Watson was in the commercial.

    I didn't realize there were a couple of versions of it. The one ending with Harris's catch and Joe Greene's comment is obviously my favorite. I've watched a few times and I'm sure I haven't come close to catching all the players in it.

    I don’t remember who the sponsor was, but I liked the car as where the guy meets his grandfather out in the country and gets in this fancy car and just as he starts it, he gets rescued by a woman at the office doing the Heimlich.

    Who had the National Corn Growers Association to be the first group offended by a Super Bowl ad?

    Someone on my FB feed last night was remarking how amazing it was to get all those guys together, I didn't want to burst their bubble by saying there's no way that could have happened.

    Just for fun, I got into some mentions on Twitter last night, and damn if Bud hadn't pissed the hell out of big corn for this. Iowa corn farmers were on there, threatening to boycott because of the commercial. Everyone is goddamn offended these days...

    The only ad I really liked. It would’ve worked better if it had been the last Bud Light ad of the game, though. Run some of the others first, then the corn syrup ad, then the tournament ad (almost like a reward for delivering the giant cask of syrup), and then … the Mountain and Dracarys.
