It's like that time Kevin Garnett suffered on the Timberwolves for 9 years and then won his first ring in his first season on a new team.

They could have an offensive coaching staff consisting of revived, peak versions of Bill Walsh, Don Coryell, and Sid Gillman, it wouldn't change things much if Qirk Cousins is their QB.

That's such a "lol i dont know anything about football' take. In real time that was a nothing penalty.

Like whatever, I wanted Matty Ice to get a ring but other than that didnt really care about the game but when the Rams are down a score and all of a sudden the refs start calling poo poo it makes the game look awful.

Correct, im sorry that you think frame by frame is how you should call poo poo.

EDIT: I mean youre a bears fan, I should let you have this I guess given that your franchise is hilarious.

Like I feel like even defending any of this is stupid given that your argument is A PENALTY HELPED THEM and my argument is "nothing was called until the Rams were in range of scoring' but I guess we can all be idiots this weekend.

nah thats fair. I guess I was just dishonest wiht myself when I was like hey whoever wins what a good game itll be! Perhpas the refs throwing three flags on the rams last chance to win had something to do with it who could say? I can say that everyone at the super bowl party i was at was like hey wtf refs??? very odd, who could say?

Game would have been a lot better if flags didnt start flying out constantly but also im an idiot packers fan whos very drunk so who loving cares, none of our teams won even if you think they did because an idiot broke back qb got traded out of this poo poo division.

It's a pretty clear facemask but there's two things working against a clean refereeing call here

1. On these long passes the refs are typically on the boundaries
1a. If you aren't looking directly at it looking for a penalty, it looks a lot like the Ram is just looking ahead of where he's going
2. Super Bowl (until the last 2 minutes)

They also could've chosen to not immediately commit very clearly DPI in the endzone like two plays later. :lol:

I worry what you just heard was...
"Give me a lot of b4con_n_3ggs."

What I said was...
"Give me all the 3ggs_n_b4con you have"

...Do you understand?
Look all the Stafford hate can gently caress right off out of this thread. Any Lions fan recognizes that he's a tough bastard that isn't the kind of QB that can put a team on his shoulders.

He can make plays 75% more often than he can gently caress up plays. It all depends on his supporting cast.

Thats the difference, and I'll congratulate the Superbowl winning QB that will enter the Hall of Fame as a Ram. :(

He has the same amount of rings as Rodgers.

Doesn't McVay's offense always look awful if the running game doesn't work? It's not like they're the Chiefs where they're accustomed to being one-dimensional.

There were some misses from Stafford, but there were at least as many plays that didn't work because the design demanded Stafford roll to a side where everyone was covered due to the Bengals' complete lack of fear of Henderson/Akers/Michel. Probably more

They wanted Stafford because the super bowl against the Pats taught them they needed a guy who could continue to function as a QB if all of McVay's complicated cross-formation motion play-action stuff broke down. He proved he could provide that.

"Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?"
It still makes me physically ill when i’m reminded that the Lions could’ve had Aaron Donald, Ndamukong Suh, Ziggy Ansah and Nick Fairley on the same line, but Martin Mayhew decided to egregiously overthink the first round and picked Eric Ebron, instead.

A man whose hands were/are made out of cement.

And, 8 years later, is TE2 on the Steelers depth chart behind a rookie.
