This game heating up ... could go down to the wire if the Rams special teams doesnt screw it up

Jets Fan Pain Luck is virtually undefeated. Saquon Barkley winning with the Eagles was a huge blow to the Giants and their fans last year. Jets Fan Pain Luck liked that but had to top it. "That seems cool. We need something like that", said Jets Fan Pain Luck. Therefore, you get Sam Darnold in the Super Bowl. Darnold was the former Jets apparent franchise savior and then they dumped him for Zach Wilson. The Jets currently have no quarterback. Most Jets fans like Darnold as a person. Do most, however, want to see him win a Super Bowl with another team? Not sure most want that. The ones who definitely do not want that will say, "Well, I can root for Seattle's opponent at least." Well, maybe not when the opponent is the Patriots. I think the football gods are wondering how do Jets fans still exist. "Why haven't you people switched allegiances by now or given up following the sport?"

What a stupid sequence from Woolen ... just shut up and make the Rams punt. Instead he taunts them and gives them another down. He just gave up a TD that shouldnt have happened. After keeping their flags in their pocket, the referees are calling everything now ... Hard to believe in game like this, the officials would help the Rams like that, but lack of poise on Woolen's part.

The Seahawks have lost their composure. The Rams should have this game. Can Darnold find a way to pull it out?

Wow! The defense stopped them ... can the Seahawks keep it going? I thought the Rams were scoring a TD for sure!

I'm scratching my head why the Rams didn't go for 2 after their last TD.

Haha ... after helping the Rams stay in the game, now the referees are helping the Hawks keep this last minute drive going. I dont believe Kupp got the first down. Will the Seahawks cut Woolen tomorrow, or keep him on the team?

Had the Rams kicked the FG, maybe these last seconds could have been different?

Patriots/Seahawks might be an even lamer rematch than Eagles/Chiefs

they sure did

For a game like this, disappointed in the officiating. The officials also missed a face-mask penalty against the Seahawks that could have kept the Rams drive alive. It seemed like for three quarters, they were letting the player's play and then the Woolen foul. After that, the floodgates seemed to open with another ticky-tack foul called on the Rams for holding Kupp. The Seattle fans were fed up by then, but with the momentum, you cant blame the Rams trying to take the lead on 4th down. Had Kupp not gotten that first down, which during the year might have been ruled incomplete, would the Seahawks had gone for it themselves rather than punting?

IT’S. THE. SCHEDULE!

This is like when Barry Switzer made a SB with Dallas

Not exactly.

True, it is his first season in New England, and he is working with players that he himself didn’t not draft.

Their schedule definitely is easier as well (the adjustment down my formula gave them still puts them fourth this year though)

But unlike Switzer where the core of players in 1994 for Dallas had won Super Bowls the two seasons before he got there, the Patriots were not good the last couple of seasons before Vrabel got there (8-9 in 2022, and back to back 4-13 seasons).
