To bad the Lions could never build a team for him.

If you were from the D you wouldn't.

He deserves that RING. Glad for him, but Cincinnati was SOOOOO close.

 

[rumblecloud]

Agreed. did not like to see the penalties at the end, but...really happy for Stafford.
When he was traded I to LA, so was I .

 

[bobbywalter]

I expected penalties

 

[don4331]

They made up for the serious gaff earlier...how could they miss that facemask.

And the defenders did "earn" a couple of those - when the everyone is expecting to the ball to go to one guy and watching that guy like a hawk, you better not have a fist full of his jersey in your hand.

I was hoping for Bengals to get into field goal range and to see another OT game...

It seemed like the game went from being decided by the players to being decided by the refs on the last LA drive. If you're gonna let 'em play, then be consistent. That includes the last five minutes of the game. I'm not a fan of the professional game, I prefer the collage game. But, this year's post season was fantastic from an entertainment perspective. The Super Bowl seemed like a let-down in comparison.

 

[Ranger850]

Check LA's track record. They seem to always have the ref's favor. I'm a Saints fan and still a little bitter from when LA basically robbed the Saints of a Playoff appearance a few years ago, by the REFs NOT calling a Pass Interference call that was clear as day a Pass Interference. Still Happy for Stafford, but LA Rams seem to be the "new" NE Patriots, as in can do no wrong. Yeah they didn't call that facemask, but they did call a "Holding" on Cinci that clearly was NOT holding. Causing the game to sway in LA's favor. LA always seems to benefit from the refs miscalls or no-calls.

it would have been better if the 49ers were in the superbowl.

FIFY

i don't even watch football, or tv, but here at work we have a bunch of bandwagon cowgirl fans and if the cowgirls are having a good year, its all blue and silver. if they are having a bad year, you don't hear anyone talk about them at all.

growing up in socal, i had a paper route as a kid and the newspaper would pick us up sometimes after school to go and walk around and ask people if they would want to start a subscription. after we did that, they would take us to a little pizza place called capones pizza (somewhere in riverside ca) for pizza. it was the perfect set up for getting people to walk around and sign up new customers, give kids pizza and soda each day. i went every time. anyways, t he pizza place always had sports on the tvs and it was always a california team (duh) so i grew up watch the lakers and 49ers play. i never watched the other cali team play much because those were the years the lakers and 49ers seemed to do well, late 80s to early 90s.

after that, it was back to not watching tv and only being outside since my mom would tell us we had to go outside if it wasn't raining (and we were on a seven year drought back then so....)
