i just saw the end-on vision of the throw Stafford made to Kupp for the longest play of the game winning drive. It was pretty fucking sexy. Very small window and he hits him in-stride

Nearly 1am here. I'm falling asleep.
You can keep your Super Bowl. It's no match for Test Rugby.
solid input as always
@mariner4life Each to their own, I guess.
Congratulations to the Rams.

I'm only a part time watcher, but one of things that stood out today was the Rams not punting on a 4th down and keeping the drive alive that they eventually scored off. I get that field position is paramount, and you don't want to give the opposition a crack in good territory, but it feels like teams should back themselves a little more when they're 4th and fuck-all
Shit take?

Well, after a fair bit of hype, I instead had a sunday roast with a couple of glasses of wine around 5pm so by the time 11:30pm kick off came I was pretty knackered. Watched the first half and then the Half Time show (I must have watched something very different to all those saying best one ever) and then woke up at 5am on the couch.
Found myself cheering for the Bengals honestly, no idea why. I guess the Rams feel a bit hollow to me as a team.
Anyway, watched the highlights this morning, looks like if I stayed awake 30 more seconds I would have seen the Bengals best part of the game. Decent enough game but nowhere near the levels of 3 weeks ago.

Great final, great season.
Best in donkey's years.

Nah you're on the money. The analytics guys have been saying NFL teams are generally too conservative when it comes to going for it, although that's starting to change now.

How bout dem Rams! Was an enthralling game to watch.
After OBJ went down they looked a bit flat and the Bengals lifted.
Desperation by the Bengals in the last Rams drive and the pressure finally cracked them for the go ahead TD. Massive defence to end the game.
Great season.

so, saw an interesting question
Does Joe Burrow ever get back to the Superbowl?
At first i laughed, and then
Superbowls are ridiculously hard to make, let alone win. You take Brady away (who has warped everyone's expectations around talented players and success) and the list of great QBs who have played in 2 SB's starts to drop away alarmingly
Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers are two of the greatest of all time, they have played in a combined 2 SBs.
The odds are, that was Burrow's shot. At least at the Bengals.

Probably.
You need a fair bit of luck to get there. Even Brady last year needed that - the Green Bay game was really touch and go.
But yeah, take Brady out and it's on. that said, with the talent comign through, some will get a couple of cracks.

And yet Eli Manning has two rings.
