The Real MVP of the Super Bowl

If you watched the post-game presentation on the field at the Superdome Sunday night, you saw Roger Goodell name Joe Flacco as the Super Bowl MVP for the Ravens. Joe had a great game and is about to make a ton of money off of the great postseason he just played, but he wasn't the MVP of the Super Bowl. He didn't deserve that award, but one of his receivers sure did. The real MVP of the Super Bowl was Jacoby Jones, and anyone who watched the game would tell you the same exact thing.

Other than getting absolutely destroyed by Delaney Walker in the second half, when Walker decided to use the hit stick on him, Jones made the biggest plays in the game. He was clutch.

First, Jones made a 56 yard catch as he fell to the ground, then proceeded to have the presence of mind to get up before he was touched and continue the play. Not only did he get up, he shook the safety out of his shoes, pulled off a spin move straight out of madden, and beat the defender to the end zone in a sprint to the goal line. This play will be forgotten because it happened in the first half, but that is a crime. It was one of the craziest and best plays I've ever seen in a Super Bowl. It ranks only behind the David Tyree catch in terms of craziness.

The play that won't be forgotten is the second half kickoff return by Jones. Jones started off the second half for the Ravens in the most explosive way possible. He fielded the kick and didn't hesitate for a second to take the ball out of the end zone and soon he was in fifth gear. Once he hit the opening in the coverage and saw daylight, he was gone and there was nothing anyone could do about it. When he found daylight, it was a sprint to the end zone and no one on that field or in that stadium was going to catch Jacoby Jones from behind. He took the kick 108 yards to the house, and then danced all over Jim Harbaugh's dreams.

Two of the biggest, most exciting, and momentum-swinging plays n the game were pulled off by Jones, and you give his MVP award to Flacco? What? This man was robbed blind and I wont let his dynamic performance be lost in the nonsense of giving the quarterback the MVP award just because he is the quarterback.

I hope Jacoby Jones steals the MVP trophy from Joe Flacco and dances on his face.
