Game Thread: Super Bowl LVI: Los Angeles Rams vs. Cincinnati Bengals Thread

[Schmoopy1000]

well all those trades & giving up so many draft picks worked out. You do all that for Superbowl championships!
Congrats to the Rams!

 

[DJ Fieri]

Kupp gets the MVP.

 

[Breed]

Yes, but possession still would've been with the Rams.

Cool. That would've been a bitch had it led to Cincy retaining the ball and winning.

 

[Red_Chaos]

Really happy for Donald, Stafford and Kupp.

Withworth 2

Well the Bengals had this game until the refs called that bogus holding call on the two yard line. Really ruins the whole game. Oh well

I say it every football game, it's just not fun to be super into a sport decided almost exclusively by officiating in any close game. And so I'm not.

Kupp gets the MVP.

Not surprised, just for that drive at the end.

 

[LogicMan]

Not a very exciting super bowl but congrats to the Rams. Cupp deserving.

Bengals bungled that 4th qtr

How big was that Boyd drop late in ghd 4th quarter that could have kept their drive going?

Yup. We don't know if he would've gotten the first down, but maybe he would've and this game ends differently. Many little different things like that could change the outcome. That's why it's so ridiculous when the media comes up with so many narratives about why a team won and why another team lost. All these guys are awesome professional athletes. The outcomes in sports mostly come down to the luck.

Cooper Kupp MVP but the guy is so humble. You just can't not like this guy. Awesome player.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Kupp got the MVP!!!



Really thought they would screw him

 

[Battlelyon]

My pleasure and also @Battlelyon congrats and enjoy your Championship. My guy Brady took it away in 2 SB's but your team returned the favor this year, retiring him. Enjoy man!!!

Had to beat the goat, division rival that had our number and the new goat

Donald is the best defenseman I have since since LT and so happy Kupp got the SB MVP because he should have gotten the regular season MVP, he led the league in every major WR stat and Rodgers didn't in QB stats

That's gotta be one of the great WR seasons of all time, right? Between the regular season and the playoffs I am not sure you can find many that are better.

I'd rather just that it's decided mostly by luck, which includes officiating errors. No sense in getting angry with refs.

It sucks that mvp iss basically a qb award

 

[Robotech]

That has to hurt Goodell to give the trophy to Kroenke in that stadium. Lol

Actually, the conspiracy theory is that Goodell wants to create a generation of Rams fans, and so this result is what Goodell wants.

Rams unique way of team building for years to trade high licks for veterans has paid off in a title.

That’s how I feel about basketball.

 

[jontaejones]

Nice playoffs.

Superbowl is always a little anticlimactic, but it was a good game.

I got your back man.

It did. But It's a 2 end street and the way-out isn't pretty.

I've been their a few times as a fan
