    I actually haven't watched the pregame either, it just doesn't interest me for some reason, I'll watch the game and that's it.

    Burrow and Stafford are both playing totally conservative in the first half......neither is showing anything!..... I'm looking for a second half shootout!....GO RAMS!...GO BENGALS!

    That half time show was off the hook. My wife is still dancing. It brought the house down

    That sure seemed like a fast 3rd quarter. Amazing how smooth things go when the refs keep their flags in their pockets......

    Bengals got another lucky no call face mask for a 75 yard td. I’m sure after the game Burrows will say that they got a few breaks again

    I would have preferred country western myself at the half but it was a good football game. I muted the tv for the half.

    Cooper Kupp is the best offensive football player I have ever seen....he caught THREE? passes in the end zone in the last 35
    seconds of the game......all the Bengals defense could do is HOLD him and hope for the best. Didn't work. He's the BEST!

    Well it was fun....................... Getting Stafford was a big part but a bigger part was Cooper Kupp. Without his amazing ability this would never have happened.

    Because only 2 penalties most of the game - then 3 in the last minute and a half.

    That Copper Kupp can just flat out ball ! Talk about learning your craft as a wide receiver and he just out works everyone. Not the biggest or fastest, but he gets open and catches the darn ball. Nice Super Bowl win for the Rams.

    Did you not see the Bengals TD when the reciever face masked the Rams defender and then
    shoved him down the field?
    If the refs helped out any team it was the Bengals because that was a blatant non call.

    Yes, it was a blatant non-call! I had my doubts at that point.
