I saw that same thing, but it was in Dallas instead of Minneapolis. LOL There were a ton of fans writing in to the NFL losing their minds I guess, not realizing it wasn't the NFL, or Goodell, and getting the wool pulled over their eyes.

This is how the Rams are a contender, smart trades, good drafting, and don't waste money on fools gold that is free agency.

They shouldn't be able to use their home locker rooms and use the home sideline.

Why not? Is the locker room going to decide what team wins, and its a stadium with a roof on it, it's not like the visiting team has to bear weather elements the home team doesn’t.

Keep on Truckin... Wait for it...

I think California ppl are waiting for the reemergence of USC football before caring about football again.

They care unless the team is losing, then it's off to Huntington or Big Bear.

Gives a comfort level to the home team before a huge game. If they were the home team for the game it wouldn't be the issue but Bengals are the home team for the game.

The comfort for the Rams is a lot more about being in LA not about being in SoFi. The Bengals aren't going to be any more or less comfortable by a locker room or what side ofvtge field they're standing on.

It is the same locker room, the same lockers they have spent a massive amount of time in this year. That's huge for those pre-game nerves of the biggest game of their careers.

Do you want to force the players to stay in a hotel too, or can they sleep at home lol?

Do you think the other locker room is any different or lesser? This is a brand new stadium with 2 home teams.

Absolutely it's different.

 

[shopson67]

Absolutely it's different.

The only differences are that they would have different logos on the walls and some team flunkie would have to move the locker contents from one room to the other.

Really hoping it is Awuzie covering this guy. As good as Odell is, I would take my chances covering him with Apple. Is Waynes still hurt???

Bengals have done well all year with varying their defense - it's one of their strengths - so I expect to see some mixed coverages, maybe some man/zone mix on Cupp. The key will be to disguise things well, get some pressure, and hope Stafford has one of his "streaks" of bad decisions that lead to some turnovers.

This is my only worry really. Kupp is not human.

Media sure is putting Joe Burrow on a pedestal
