Punching Bag Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Is AFC or NFC home team this year? It would be odd if "away" team was the home team. This is 2nd year in a row a NFC team is hosting Superbowl so either it happened last year or this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you stop that. The teams are given a certain amount they can sell to their fans, but they can’t control what happens after they have already sold them. If I knew I could make 30 grand for selling my tickets that would be hard to pass up My main point was, the vast majority of these tickets go to sponsors and not regular fans. I’d love to put more tickets in the hands of regular fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a fan wanted to sit comfortably in the lower levels of SoFi Stadium, he would have to shell out about $8,870. The high rollers will need more than $906,000 for a single ticket for a 24-person suite. https://www.foxbusiness.com/sports/super-bowl-2022-ticket-prices-nfl If I wanted to piss away that sort of money on a few hours of entertainment, it sure as hell would have nothing to do with a football game or the Super Bowl in particular.

Bengals are kind of a Cinderella story, going up against the star studded Rams in LA. Will the young gun Joey brr get a super bowl in only his 2nd year or will the vet Stafford finally get his? It’s an intriguing matchup. So much better than having to watch the Brady slobfest. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Bengals can win regardless, but, Stafford is far more likely to turn into Peterman than Mahomes was. He has in most games. He even tried giving away the game against the 49ers just last week. The 49ers DB just dropped the easiest INT he will ever see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost makes me regret Mahomes losing as this may be worse from a obnoxious fan perspective. Their team as a whole, sure it was successful and made the trek to the biggest game of the year. But giving Burrow all of the credit as an elite passer carrying the team with his cold blood? Absurd. The guy has 4 touchdowns in 12 quarters of play. To put that in perspective, he scored a touchdown in Q1 and Q2 of the raiders game, and Q2 and Q3 of the Chiefs game. The other 8 quarters were field goals and punts, or turnovers (he had two). In arguably every playoff scenario, the defense carried them to where they are now. Edited February 8, 2022 by What a Tuel 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats bar was going nuts w/ beer flying all over the place. In LA, there were 2 couples sitting at the bar drinking wine, and one of them looked up and said something like, "Hey, we won! That means we're going to the Super Bowl, right?" I'm sure it wasn't all like that. But probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad Josh didn't have that luxury. I know that we want controllable outcomes, but both the Bengals and the Rams got a lot of good fortune to win games. If Carr could find an open man in the EZ at the end of the WC game, the Bengals playoff drought continues. The game deciding interception in the Bengals game against the Titans was broken up by Eli Apple, but it popped straight into Logan Wilson’s arms. 9 times out of 10 that ball falls to the turf. And if Tartt catches the easy one at the end of the NFCCG, the 49ers and playing on Sunday. Also, what the heck happened to the Chiefs in the second half of the AFCCG? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe college with USC and UCLA but not the pros. When it comes to sports LA is Lakers and Dodgers. I will predict the Chargers won't survive there long term. The Rams probably will because they have some history in LA and somewhat of a fanbase but not the Chargers. They would have been better off moving the Raiders to LA with the Rams and have the Chargers go to Vegas. If the Bills had made the Super Bowl I would bet 75-80% of the crowd would have been Bills Mafia. Buffalo a hard core football mad city vs LA home of the fair weather fan at best.

A good comparison I've seen is Troy Aikman. Burrow doesn't look spectacular, but he always seems to throw to the correct receiver and puts the ball in the correct location.. He's not a burner, but athletic enough to buy some time or get a clutch 1st down with his legs. Bottom line, he's obviously a winner and the Bengals would not even be sniffing the SB without him. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
