Cincy has about 55 million in cap space so they will only get stronger and their GM has already done a good job with that defence in free agency.  Beane needs to follow some but not all of the Rams footprint to a title. Make a couple of splash win now moves to get a big time defensive play maker or two

 

I think on offence we saw tonight what speed at the RB position looks like in Mixon, even with a terrible line he made some nice runs. I think a speed RB along with another speed WR who has good YAC ability and our offence will get to another level.  Maybe add another guard and then focus on getting play makers on defense

 

After watching Bengals LB'S  tonight I would trade Edmunds over paying him big money which he does not deserve.

The Bengals don't have a GM. Look at their org chart.

I like what Mcvay said in his post game presser about Aaron Donald.  Just elevates everyone.  Mcvay said he was mic’d up and on the 4th down at the end knew Donald would make the game ending play because “he’s the effing man”

 

No chance a Bills player sacks Burrow on 4th and half a yard. Zero chance.  We don’t have a game closer like that.

Pretty lousy football game.  

 

We found out what happens when two teams that are afraid to win the Super Bowl meet in a Super Bowl.   Kinda' reminded me of the Steelers vs. Seahawks matchup.

 

Glad the Bengals lost.......SB losing teams that have never won a SB prior really tend to not get back..........and the refs pulling their prior unused flags out just as the Rams were trying to ***** defeat from the jaws of victory was both distasteful and fitting, I guess.

 

I'm not blaming officiating by any means.........the lesson is don't play yourself into close games where a bad bounce or flag can sink you.

 

Bengals had the Rams on the ropes immediately after halftime and didn't step on their throat while the Rams were reeling.

 

 

 

I agree. I was bored most of the game and continually shook my head at the number of times the Rams thought it was a good idea to run the ball. McVay's rep as an 'offensive genius' is vastly overblown. The refs decided to hide their flags most of the game but miraculously found them on the Rams game-winning drive like a twenty dollar bill hidden in a winter coat. Goodell and Hollywood got their Hollywood ending but nothing about that Super Bowl screamed great.

I really tried to enjoy the game.  Picked the Bengals to root for because AFC.  And I hate OBJ.

 

All I could do was watch and think WWJA do?  No way he’s sacked that many times.   No way he doesn’t get first downs.

 

Kinda gut wrenched now.  Keep thinking what if?
 

Dang.

Burrow has an elite ego!  Not a likeable guy like the Mannings or Josh!  Did you see his outfit coming into the stadium? 

 

Yes, he was dressed to the nines.  It's the Super Bowl!

 

Bills fans have a weird inferiority complex with any other young QB that is seen as Allen's competition.  First it was Lamar, then Mahomes, now it's Burrow.  

 

It'll be Herbert next season if the Chargers are successful.

It was not a particularly enjoyable game, but you have to admit it did have a close/fairly interesting finish, which is way more than I thought it would have.


I had the Rams winning easily in a mini-blowout, so compared to that, the game was actually good in a way.

 

I'll forget who was playing before next season begins!

 

LOL

This was just a very uninteresting game to me.  Neither team was a villain like the Pats* or Brady used to be.  The Rams are the embodiment of "Corporate NFL" with their combination of stadium, owner, and fairly pedestrian fanbase.  Neither QB lit it up in what is such a quarterback-driven league.

 

The Bengals have fans with heart, and they played a pivotal role in breaking the drought, so I was rooting for them.  But even still... it felt like these teams were playing by default after the choke jobs that the Buffalo Defense, Mahomes, and Rodgers delivered.

  After the 75 yard TD pass to open the 2nd half the Bengals had 6 drives, 31 plays for 61 yards. That's a whole lotta really bad offense.


I like Burrow, but he doesn’t deserve to be spoken of higher than Josh.  Don’t care he got to the Super Bowl.  His playoff stats are nothing compared to JA.

 

Yeah, his o-line is terrible.  Josh would have rushed out a few of those sacks, or scrambled.

Vegas begs to differ and the four point line was pretty spot on...the Rams missed a PAT. It was not an awful game, I just found it mostly boring with a little drama thrown in at the end.

Donald is a monster. Rams are very lucky to have him.

Some egregious coaching decisions that cost you championships don't always happen with 13 seconds left.  Many often go unnoticed 

 

 

 

Joe Mixon needed to be THE man tonight.  You weren't throwing it on the Rams like this was the 5th string Ravens secondary Burrow throw for 1000 yards against - I'm sure 900 of it was YAC.  

 

Only 15 carries for Mixon.  And somehow 5 catches for 1 yard.

Joe Burrow managed to do what he did in 2021, 4600 yards passing, 34 TDs while getting sacked 51 times. Heck, the kid was sacked 9x against the Titans in that playoff game and still went 28 for 37 for 348 yards. 

 

He had the crap beaten out of him in that SB with a record 7 sacks

 

I think of Burrow right up there with Allen, Herbert, Mahomes as one of the top young QBs in the AFC. 

 

I think it might be tougher for Mahomes now with McDaniel's as Raiders HC...hoping anyway.
