I've watched the NFL Highlight video of the Rams-Seahawks game.

Where I think the unforced error was for the Rams, was in the 4th Q, with 5:08 left, and 3rd down and 4 at the 6 yard line.

Instead of going for a TD throw that might or might not make it (the throw did not make it), the Rams should have played it safe and gone for the 1st down, with a run, even a QB run if necessary. It seemed it was all or nothing on "3rd Down" ???

And when that 3rd down throw didn't work, for the 4th down, the Rams did not go for the 1st down, but went for it all, and that throw did not make it. Change of Possession.
Some of us were chatting about it, I actually think it was a pretty smart adjustment and call by the Seahawks on 4th down. They basically played coverage with 8 or 9 guys (Brady said 9). They had a very condensed area to actually guard, and they knew Stafford was no threat to really take off and run from where he was. The only reason his scramble worked on the previous 4th down was because DLaw uncharacteristically allowed Stafford to break the tackle.

They did run on 2nd down and got stuffed though. Stafford has had an unbelievable season and was on fire again yesterday, they have talented receivers too so putting the ball in his hands to try and get a lead late in a championship game is the right thing to do.

Casillas went off on em.

Little known factoid, Tony Casillas owns the official Cowboy postseason record for sacks in one game with the 3 in that 92 championship game. He was never a big sack guy (3 for a season was actually his career high) and after we traded for him he usually came out on passing downs for Jimmie Jones/Leon Lett.

But in that game he got Steve Young 3 times.

Unless Darnold has multiple turnovers, the Seasquaks are going to win fairly easily.
New England has no business being in the SB. Just as Philly didn't last season. That said, Jerry's dream of having the most SB's is still possible being Kraft won't reach #7. Last time I checked, the Pats won't be playing against a backup qb with no experience, but instead, against a QB whose the first to reach the SB from the 2018 draft class. Sam's got this.

This is when you know it's a completely unserious sham of a game/weekend.

This clown was just named to the "ProBowl"
