There's a lot to talk about in this episode of Norse Code, and we cover everything from our prop bets at the Super Bowl to Wade Phillips' career as a head coach. Does Terrell Owens deserve to be in the Hall of Fame as a first-ballot receiver or should he have to wait like most other inductees? Why won't my chicken wings sauce correctly? Should Fusco switch sides again?
And so on.

Episode Notes:
- Here's Football Outsiders' rapid reaction to the Super Bowl, which contains a bunch of good nuggets
- HawkBlogger does an earnest, objective job comparing the greatest defenses of all time, including the 1969 Vikings. He compared the 2015 Denver defense to the 2013 Seattle defense
- Football Outsiders has historical DVOA estimates for all teams, offenses and defenses going back to 1950. Minnesota's 1969 ranks second all-time to Philadelphia's 1991 defense and Denver's defense would rank 16th of all time, tied with Seattle's 2013.
- Tom Brady gave his MVP truck to Malcolm Butler, with weird tax implications
- This is great analysis on the Hall of Fame predictions debate overall
- Here's a good piece on Tony Dungy's Hall of Fame candidacy
- Pro Football Focus' piece on switching sides of the OL is a good one
