our reactions to the NFC title game

I wonder who Jared Goff was rooting for…. his childhood heroes or his old teammates????

Stafford delivered again.

Great trade!!!!!

I LOVE IT!!!

Rams set new NFC title game record for the largest deficit overcome 10 pts.

The Rams made a ton of mistakes but had the grit to overcome them.  Hard fought win against a tough team.

I’m happy. 🙂

Going in, I thought the Rams had this. But I was in a hopeless land later on, thinking the Niners curse was still in effect. Rams made mistakes and let the game get away from them. But they wouldn’t quit, and reversed the narrative. They reversed the sense that the Niners were the team of destiny this year, albeit via their late-in-the-season wins.

Very proud of this team. Whether it was “win one for AD,” or however they managed to dig deep and deeper, they earned this win. Not through “finesse,” but grit.

Have no idea who should get the game ball, but I do think OBJ came up huge, and, surprisingly, Blanton. Of course, the D did what it needed to do, when it needed to do it, and I think it gets some reinforcements for the Super Bowl, like SJD.

Great win, in a very tough game.

only thing i’m sad about.  that robert woods couldn’t play this postseason.  love that guy.

All year long I thought the Chiefs had the best team, the most

dangerous team.

I also thought the Titans would be matchup nightmare, just like the 49ers.

I also thought the Bills would be very dangerous.

So, the Rams avoid all those, and get…the Bengals?

I have no idea who they are or why they got to the

Super Bowl.

At least Kranke did’t take a shot at St. Louis in his doddering speech. Can we never hear from an owner ever again, please?

Is Eric Weddle, like, three feet tall?    I’m just askin.   He looks teeny tiny.

I had major anxiety all week. I wanted another shot at those Hineys. For a while there, I was thinking, “What the fuck was I thinking?” Then after the second Kupp TD I knew we had it in the bag. The Niners couldn’t run the ball and left it in Jimmy G’s hands. A nightmare scenario for them and he came through. For us.

I’m proud of this team. Go Rams.

It is amazing how quickly Weddle has gotten into football shape in order to make a positive difference.

I really thought he would function largely as a cheerleader. He’s not only playing, he’s been out there almost every snap, and he’s made plays. It’s incredible.

joe burrow worries me though.  he got sacked 50+ times this season and still put up the second best passer rating in the league.  the best ypa in the league.  joe mixon was third in the league in rushing.

rams can’t turn the ball over.  they have to win the turnover battle.  they can’t leave points on the field.  they can’t put the defense in bad positions.

but yeah.  donald, stafford, miller, whit…  these guys won’t take this game for granted.  they know they won’t have many more chances at this.  so i fully expect them to hold the team accountable.

when i saw donald rallying his teammates…  i think this team will be ready come 2 weeks.

How did the Bengals beat TN when Burrow was sacked 9 times? I didn’t see that game.

i didn’t watch the game, but i do know that tennessee had a bunch of turnovers.

tannehill had 3 interceptions.
