What a great story for Bengals and Rams. 

[DiogoSales]

Not getting Stafford will not look good for many years..

And who wanted Garoppolo? 

 

Over Wentz?  Still do.

[Lancer1]

Both games decided by field goals, after double digit comebacks!

[SR711]

Jimmy G has a little Carson Wentz streak in him

That was actually a good pass under those circumstances.  Dude should have caught it.  

Yeah, after the replay, I saw it actually hit the receiver. So, not Wentz lol

[richard pallo]

I guess we can all relax now.  Wentz is our QB.  Let’s see if Ballard can get him some more weapons.

[NFLfan]

Go Bengals!

Two 4 seeds

True. Just goes to show you like Bucs vs Saints last year, hard to beat a team 3 times in a year

That had a SB team already.

Me too, I  have a coworker who has met him and says he's the nicest guy.

Yeah I believe it. Just seeing a few interviews with him off the field. You wouldn't even know he's the nasty probably best player  in the NFL.

 

But just how they were talking about him being bottled up by the 49ers every time they play. And when they said he rallied the defense on the sidelines and would never do that really because he's the silent killer.. then he makes the play of the game. Good for him!!

Rams roster is stacked and way better than the Colts. Highly doubt we would have made a run with Stafford

It is looking more and more like one of the bigger mis-evaluatuon/fails by Ballard.

We should have made the playoffs with Wentz. Would have done better with Stafford I’m sure. 

[Chrisaaron1023]

Bucs hosted the superbowl last year. Now Rams.. who's next year? Raiders?

For the money we pay Wentz, I’d trust him to take the layups. He’s not a Josh Allen or Mahomes to drive us down the field all the time within the last 2 minutes but his floor is pretty decent compared to Wentz.

Eh, I’m not gonna get bent out of shape on that. Lions wanted way too much. We’re way off from the talent LA has and in the next year or two, they’re gonna crumble.

Maybe.  AFC is absolutely loaded right now. I would like to think we would tho

Yes, Stafford is in SB, soooo happy for him!!!

 

Started shaky but came through when they needed him!!!

Yup. Shaky start, but put up 300+ on SF's D, and did what was needed when it counted.

Jimmy the opposite. He wilted at the end. Two bad possessions, the last ending with an INT.

Rams indeed went all in. 

3 big moves. Stafford, OBJ, Von Miller.

Paid off.

 We are very unlikely to have his equal over the next 4 years.

[SR711]

Jimmy G is definitely gone. 

 

Shanahan knows he needs a more dynamic QB to keep up. 

 

It once again shows that the D, running game and game manager formula only takes you so far.

Go Bengals!

It's gonna be a great Superbowl, and I don't really care who wins it, good stories on both sides. The Bengals forged their path with wins in 2 outdoor, cold weather stadiums and now they're coming to SoFi (with a roof) in Los Angeles, and that will be a nice change for them!

[Chrisaaron1023]

Freaking Sean Mcvay.. 4 years older than me and leading a group of men to the Superbowl.. I couldn't imagine. I can't even lead my 4 year old to bed...

[Patrick Miller]

Love it! Now I can enjoy watching the Superbowl! I really didn't want to see the damn chiefs and 49ers back in it. Whoo hoo!

Second time he has done it too.

[AwesomeAustin]

What’s sad is there is only one game left this year.  I need to start watching basketball again but it’s terrible

Ramsey is overrated 

Still a top 3 corner

[Chrisaaron1023]

I wonder what Jared Goff is doing right now 

 

The dude picked before the guy we have been hammering all night

Only one more first then we gave up for Wentz. Not that much. But we don’t have all the weapons.

I actually do not want the Rams to win. I don't like their owner. I would love to see the Bengals win. I like teams that win with guys they drafted rather than building a dream team. 

 

Zac Taylor is facing his former boss. Hope he knows something that he can exploit.

 

I have faith in Burrow.

They should not have. They're exactly where they should be.

He’s thinking “glad I made the SB thanks to a PI not called for the Saints, now if Stafford loses the SB, the Rams haven’t really done better”.

They also has Jared Goff in that trade. That’s worth something I’m sure.

I don't view it as a misevaluation, Ballard clearly wanted Stafford but wasn't willing to outbid the Rams (and who knows who else) and give up the 3 #1s + that it would've taken to get him - the Rams having a top draft pick like Goff to throw into the deal was a benefit that few other GMs could've matched because if you're trading a Matthew Stafford, you'd better get a starting caliber QB in return.

[richard pallo]

Pulling for Stafford.  He might not get another opportunity.  Burrow most likely will.
