An NFL season that began in the heat of September and has continued through, well, the heat of January has come down to this.It’s the Falcons against the Patriots for the Super Bowl title.The ride to get here has been bumpy as 2016 has knocked a few apples from the pro football cart. The Chargers said goodbye to San Diego and the Bills said goodbye to their head coach, Rex Ryan.The Texans spent $18 million a year for QB Brock Osweiler and ended up paying $1.2 million for each of his 15 TD passes. No wonder popcorn costs so much at the game.Both Super Bowl teams from last year, the Broncos and Panthers, failed to make the playoffs.
