Vernon Davis recently described what the Super Bowl hangover feels like. He was on the 49ers team that lost to the Ravens in the Super Bowl in 2013. Here's what Davis said.
Teams that lose the Super Bowl almost never win it the following year. In fact, they often regress because of something called the Super Bowl hangover.Vernon Davis
DAVIS: "You know that making it there is few and far between. If you know that, and you go that far, you put in all this work to lose the biggest game of your life, it's horrifying. It just doesn't make sense. When you leave that game, you wish you could rewind the hands of time and do something different. That's the feeling. Knowing that you can't change the hands of time is the biggest Debbie Downer.
DAVIS: "Yeah, there are a lot of politics. The game is all about what have you done for me lately? If a guy isn't performing, then he's going to be out. He's done. They're constantly moving pieces around and seeing what pieces fit from a cap standpoint."
