As someone who lives close enough to claim LA territory, LA loves the Rams.  We hate the Chargers, kind've like Lakers and Clippers thing... 

They just overlook that whole move to Saint Louis where they actually won and went to SB?

Thought so too, but I had money on Donald, so.... 

 

Donald deservedly could've gotten it as well, but I have no problem with Kupp winning it.

 

He had a great game.

Rams better enjoy this while they can. Once Kevin O'Connell is on the plane to Minnesota, the Rams offense is toast.

[88Comrade2000]

Rams fans better enjoy this. The bill will eventually come due and they will go back to sucking.

 

Bengals need to fix that online ; if they want to get back to the SuperBowl  and win it.

Ah, Goodell.  

 

Rog, I'll never say another bad thing about you if you kick Snyder out of the league later this week.  C'mon, we all want this and I know you do, too.

 

Roger... everyone hates you... but you can earn hero status in DC if you oust Snyder, we'll put up a Goodell statue in our new stadium... plaque reads:

 

Real American Hero

Roger Goodell

Fired Dumbass Snyder

But they still have McVey who was calling all the plays anyway. I think they should be okay without him.

I dunno. He had a great series. Was pretty invisible otherwise. Certainly didn't feel like he was dominating the game throughout. That said, it's not a bit deal. Would have been cool to see a defensive guy win it.

[CRobi21]

Ok. Season over.

 

Back to the Snyder being **** canned news feed!!!

This should have been the first question McVay was asked.

 

Hey Mcvay! You just won the Super Bowl. What do you think should happen to Dan Snyder?

No, O'Connell is an offensive mastermind and no team can survive without him. At least, that's what I've heard when our offense sputters and our open WRs don't get thrown to.

I'd pitch in a few bucks to get that statue built.  I mean, I don't like Goodell either but if he kicks Snyder out, I'd buy him a beer if I ever saw him somewhere.

The Bengals shouldn't have handed it to Perrine om 3rd and 1. He failed earlier to get a first down. Oh well, poor Cincinnati. After the facemask TD that wasn't called I started to root a little for LA because they got robbed. Glad for Stafford. All those years in Detroit and now a ring. Burrows will get Cincinnati back in the show some other time. 

[abdcskins]

In general I hate when teams throw on 4th and 1 and I still hate it.

Does the city of LA know they just won a championship? They don't give a **** about the Rams.

 

Nobody tell them. 

I think most of them live in tents from the pictures so they dont have tvs probably.

[Rufus T Firefly]

Thus concludes the first NFL season of my life where I had no team. 

 

Different. But probably more enjoyable than most of the last two decades. 

[Warhead36]

Happy for the vets like Stafford, Donald, and Whitworth.

Ah, ****.  That ****ty feeling when football season is over and there's that barren wasteland between the end of the NFL season and the start of the MLB season.  Except that there's not gonna be an MLB season this year.  

 

Oh well.  

Yeah….I’m gonna be like a junkie without his coke next weekend without football…..

 

good thing I have game pass. 

[NoVaSkins21]

If the Bengals are able to protect Burrow, they probably win this game because that's the difference in this game.  They won the turnover battle, but couldn't give their QB the time that he needed to make to make the throws to win the game.

[Ball Security]

At least Det gets the 32 pick in the draft for trading Stafford.😂

[NickyJ]

A little more fuel for the refs suck crowd. I've been trying to avoid getting into that rut, but some of it has been really noticeable.

 

 

[Destino]

Big calls were missed throughout this game, and bengals held Rams wideouts all night until the refs suddenly remembered it wasn’t allowed on the final drive.  Thought Stafford was hit below the knees on one sack too.  Wasn’t a great night for the refs.  
 

I don’t think either team has any cause to complain.  The calls weren’t one sided.  

[Tsailand]

This game just impressed on me that we are a long ****ing way from competing for a Super Bowl.

And that's different from Week 1 of the last 20+ years?

Funny reading some of the commenta... NoVA transplant to Los Angeles.  We have had Rams fever since they went to the last Super Bowl.  I am friends with a superfan of the Rams... he rooted for them while in St. Louis (I would if WFT moved).  

 

I never knew this until tonight, but essentially the owners of the Colts (Irsay) and Rams traded teams in 1972.  No one would blame the owner for moving to St. Louis, but Georgia F didn't attempt to invest in the team and Kroenke wasn't expected to move them being a Missouri native, but he saw the value of being in LA.

 

Many transplants here who root for their childhood teams like me, but have no problem rooting for the Rams (except when playing the primary teaml).  There are still a lot of Raider fans here too, some Cowboy fans (they trained in the area), and we politely will back the Chargers.
