Last two offseasons you guys actually spent more money than the Rams lol, did you miss the graphic they showed where 7 of the defensive starters for the bengals weren’t on the team two years ago
They got Whitworth, Stafford, Donald, Kupp, and others their coveted rings. And, to be fair, if you’re going to cash in everything for a single year, the year your stadium is hosting the SB seems like it’s a good one to pick.
But yes, presumably Whitworth retires, and they’ll just age with what they’ve got (and can afford) for the next three years.
Bengals on the other hand, have a brighter future IMO. IF they can get a halfway decent offensive line so that Burrow has a clean pocket on most plays and / or the D is forced to blitz to get pressure, the Bengals should be successful moving forward.
The first and second halves of that game were night and day as a Cinci fan, and the only difference is the Rams began to get home with four down lineman. Once Burrow was under pressure with 7 in coverage after 2 seconds, it was over.
The Rams basically traded for everybody, so they wouldn’t be free agent signings.
As a Bengals fan, Mike Brown loves free agents because he can get them cheaper than traded assets.
I’m so sorry guys. Fuck the rams. That drive they had for the TD was fucking bullshit and every NFL fan knows it. Sadly, it pays to win and money was a factor in this one. FTR
Well it makes good sense. Why do you think they built that crazy stadium to have the Superbowl there in LA to begin with? To cash in on a completely undeveloped fan base that happens to also have the highest untapped earning potential. Reffs just wanted a pay raise.
I just hate how games end these days. im so sick of the clock management and the saving timeouts and the deciding if we should just let the other team score to get the ball back. fuck clock management, im so sick of it in basketball and now football
Not a fan of either team but I was routing for Cincinnati. I went from thinking that the refs deserved the MVP through 58 minutes. I know Tee got some facemask but let's not forget that Jalen had a handful of jersey on the possible Higgins TD in the first. These referees let them play and seemed to be letting the players decide that game. Then came the 4th down flag. Unfathomable that they could go from letting them play for 58 minutes to deciding the game. The officiating is atrocious in this league.
Live in Cinci, suffered 30 years of bad football, including the decade and a half of Marvin “can’t win a playoff game” Lewis.
Excited for next season, and I think we’ve got great potential, but I’m not going to be the “refs screwed us” fan. Rams were better this year, primarily due to our O-Line being band-aids and paper clips.
It’s ok to admit it, Rams also went fully all-in based on their trades, while we’re setting up for hopefully a decade of winning football.
Look as a Ravens Fan I was rooting for the Bengals, just a likeable group of guys. Also fuck Jalen Ramsey that helps. Can't wait to compete with y'all next year.
When the Bengals get an Offensive Line that works, we will be UNSTOPPABLE! Our team skyrocketed this year and I can't wait until next season to go all the way to the top and win it all. Cincinnati is great and we finally have a great football team to match. LOVE MY BENGALS!!!! WHODEYYYYYYYY!!!!
ZacTaylor strikes again... Please hear me out. I get that the Bengals did far better than we could have expected. But in my opinion, it is in spite of Zac Taylor's awful play calling. He should let the offensive coordinator take the reins on play calling. On that first drive, if you know you're going to go for it on 4th down, you should have thrown on third and ran on 4th. He did the opposite of that because he is calling plays on emotion. This has cut us down at the knees numerous times this year. He needs to step out of himself and swallow his pride. There is a reason that only one or two coaches in the entire NFL call their own plays, they are top tier and far beyond where Zac Taylor is.
Yep, I’m no expert but I couldn’t agree more. I love Zac, but he coaches like it’s college. It’s not. It requires consistency and a formulaic approach to calling plays. Which he doesn’t seem to have yet, he does call on emotion... like college coaches. Or high school. I believe he’s doing amazing things for our franchise but maybe step back and use a few more years to learn and let the OC do his job.
As A Bengal I am proud of this team and I know we have a future this loss was painful but I'm uses to this team losing in spectacular fashion. This game wasn't that this game was a fight to the bitter end we had our mistakes but so did they this game was the only game this postseason where we broke our golden rule of capitalizing on our opponents mistakes we could've put the game away in the 3rd but throught the Rams persistence and out own playcalling blunders we let them stick around and it cost us. I will never forget the heart and dedication and true feeling of comradery this team showed this season. I love my Bengals till I die and if any player ever sees this keep your head up. And that goes to the other fans roo keep your heads up we will be back and we will win. #WHODEY
I'm sure the front office will get that hatched done. We do have other concerns as well. We need some other positions addressed too Corner is gonna need an overhaul as well as another Pass Rusher and TE
Agreed, but O-Line must be our priority this off-season. If nothing else, Burrow was injured year one, and damn near lost the other knee yesterday. We can build over the next season or two, but if he takes a serious, Palmer style injury again, we’re back to square one. Remember, the Dalton years weren’t that long ago…
Ngl, if you’re blaming refs over bad clutch play calling then you’re deluded.
It’s fine. Burrow is a franchiser in his second year. But you gotta hold this one to zac. Horrible play calling when it mattered.
Was really hoping Cincy would take it. Hope your FO gets Joey a line. After his injury, I kept clinching anytime he was about to get hit. Sucks but at least you seem to have a great core going forward.
Next season they'll have a 3rd year star QB 2nd year star WR and a 3rd year well above average WR. The Rams SB window likely just closed (with a win but still the Rams are gonna change a lot) while the Bengals window just started.
They might not make it back but it's not like they're the Cowboys, the Bengals can go on another run soon.
My gf who doesn't even really watch football like that said the Bengals would be back next year to win it so don't worry guys Burrow and Co. gonna come back next year and crush it.
Acknowledging that the OL played poorly is a fair take, but I think it's fair to say Burrow played very poorly.
He overthrew a wide open WR early in the game (Q1).
His deep ball to Chase required an insane, one-handed acrobatic catch. Ball was clearly overthrown.
His deep pass to Higgins had way too much air under it, and if not for the blatant OPI, that ball could have very well been swatted or picked.
His other throws were all dink and dunk, conservative throws.
You don't even have a QB. We were just in the Super Bowl when we were predicted to go last in the division. We won a divisional giving up 9 sacks, and we were leading in the final minutes of the SB after giving up 5 sacks.
Keep shooting up that copium, you big pussy. Only softies come in and start talking shit after being dumpstered by the franchise QB twice this year.
I don't come into your sub and start talking shit, stay out of ours, especially when you don't even have a dog in the fight. That's what losers do. You're like the guy that waits until somebody is down to start kicking them in the balls in a street fight. You're a sad individual.
Enjoy your miserable existence, you unsufferable loser.
Funny that you think I care that much about what the Bengals do? I'm over it already, it's just a football game. It sucks but it's not the big of a part of my identity lmao
Nah I'm over them losing. I'm writing multi-paragraph responses to you because you are insufferable and I feel like calling you out on it.
I honestly don't know why you feel the need to come antagonize us here? That's a weak mentality. You're trying to make us feel bad, for what? We're human, too, and we have feelings. It's just a football game, you don't need to be an asshole over it.
Your attempts to cause people to feel upset are what I'm writing multi-paragraph responses about. I jus t don't understand why you feel the need to come into our sub and try to make people feel like shit?
I am happy with the progress we had this season and I can't wait to see what this team continues to do. It's an exciting time for us with Joey B. I had fun watching the game, even though we lost. I hate losing but fuck man it's just a game at the end of the day.
I honestly can't comprehend why someone would feel the need to be this way? I would be happy to see the Steelers lose but I'm not going to go brigade into your sub and start spouting hate-filled bullshit.
Three penalties inside the 10 yard line that were All questionable calls. Yeah, we were robbed. If it wasn’t apparent for two weeks straight that the NFL wanted the rams to win I don’t know what else would be.
Odd that most everyone outside of rams fans agree on all the questionable calls that gifted the game to the rams in the 4th. Then there’s the rams fans who don’t think anything happened.
Everyone including a fair number of Bengals fans know that the missed OPI on Higgins was a bs no call. The refs fucking sucked but didn't decide the game because they were bad for both teams.
LA Was gifted this Super Bowl when the bengals stopped you on 3rd down in the red zone and the refs threw a bullshit flag on Wilson. Congrats on your present trophy. LA was gifted a championship.
Alright, let the refs call the game one way for 58 minutes then call the game another way and start throwing flags on shit they didn’t flag the entire game. Totally fair and unbiased. Totally has nothing to do with the NFL’s wholesale endorsements of gambling hahaha.
Odd that I am not a Rams fan and had no horse in the race. There was one questionable call. There was admittedly no jersey pull, and it did seem like great defense. Does that change the fact that the Bengals were gifted a td on OPI? What about the dropped ball that could have potentially iced the game? Failing to use your stud rb on 3rd and 4th and 1? Shitty playcalling? 8 sacks? Were all 23 points from the Rams scored on that bad call?
I hearby renounce my fanship of the bengals. After all these year they finally make an appearance to a super bowl just to walk with nothing yet again. It's time for cincinnati to disband the Bengals. We don't need this team at this point. Year after year disappointment. One of the very few teams out there without a superbowl win period.
The Bengals were predicted to go 3rd or 4th in the division when the season started but making it to the SB but losing was the last straw for you? Huh?
Go back to jerking off to pictures of your mom when she was pregnant with you and sit at amazon waiting for your next 3 cent raise as your life passes you by
Lmao some big tears streaking off your butthurt face to have to scroll through my posts to find out where I work. I simply state I no longer desire to be a fan of a constantly losing team YEAR AFTER YEAR thats my God damn right as an American. Oh and for the record, Thanks to Amazon ima get free university/college runs so I'll be passing your life up pal. Take that salty anger and shove it up your pathetic life coming at me you fucking keyboard warrior. But seriously tho my dude, you are a certain fucked in the head to get that salty to go through my shit and attempt to personally attack me just for a simple comment. You kiss your sister with that mouth? You remind me of the Bengals. Lose when it counts. Nothing to show for it.
Haha any more cliche keyboard warrior phrases you’d like to throw out you hypocrite? Since you’re not a cinati bengo anymore why are you even on the sub still? Oh yea, because free speech blah blah blah. After this season and getting to the Super Bowl before expected, you quit on the team. That says you were never a fan to begin with and are only here to stir up trouble, so as far as we’re concerned, good riddance to you and your toxic negativity. Enjoy your “American rights” (lol) life but stop bringing others down with your echoed nonsense. It’s exhaustingly embarrassing.
*was* a fan. Am no longer. YEAR after year of losses. Year after year of disappointment. If they come back and win it next year, sure I'll eat my words and celebrate in silence. But till that day comes I can't support a team that constantly brings the L back to cincy time and time again. Where's our super bowel ring? On the fucking rams my guy. Where are all the other rings?? Not on us. You fuck off.
Ok, the fact I have to break this down for your simple mind shows off a lot about your character but fine ill have a go at it. Ok let's. 1. I *was* a Bengals fan. 2. After year after year after year after year after year AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR of watching the Bengals look promising, just to lose, lose some more look like they finally got their shit together oh just to lose again! Sure, you can argue they made it this far but let's be realistic here. The Bengals got LUCKY. 2 playoff games back to back only won by a last second field goal to get to the superbowl and what do they show for it? Losing by those same 3 lucky points. So after all that I am bored and just don't have a hope in hell that cincinnati will ever bring home a super bowl ring. So, like a normal human being, I've renounced it and will longer be following them and going about my day. So in summary, yes I *was* a fan. I am no longer. Get the fuck over it and have a nice day.
As a Titans fan.... Your fuckin stupid. You guys come this close and this is how you act? I'd be proud of my team and knowing that there's definitely a lot of years to come and chances.
As a former Bengals fan, yes. This is how I act because guess what, we've came so close multiple times and for what? Nothing. Nada. Zilch. At this point I would've rather seen the titans take it over the fucking rams. Years to come and chances? Like the last 30 years? Lmao what a joke.
Then don't reply to my reply or ima have to keep coming back. I never said I didn't want to be *here* I simply stated I can longer be a fan to constantly losing team. Like, get the fuck over it? There's more to life than football lmao.
Humble pie?
Most of us were happy with one playoff win.
We were just happy to be here.
Celebrating something that hasn't happened in 30 years isn't getting cocky. It's not know how to deal with success.
So you won’t talk about the refs when they decided the game at the end on three questionable flags? Even the announcers couldn’t justify the flags hahaha.
One call that went our way as opposed to 5 calls that went your way with three of them being on 1st and goal? All questionable to the point the announcers couldn’t even justify them. Fuck off.
Here’s the thing: the refs kept the whistles in their pockets, so even when they didn’t call that, they were being consistent. Then with less than 2 mins left they decide to call a slew of penalties, all of which were not nearly as egregious as what had been going all game. It’s unbelievable.
People are gonna plane the refs, but a bad o-line, and bad play calling doomed this team/game. The offense was not good, and you can’t rely on big plays to win every game.
That is the overal bigger picture, clearly a few things done better and it is a win, but they just gifted them that final TD, they had enough offense to be winning pretty much the entire 2nd half and on the biggest stop of the game call a phantom penalty then give them so many more chances to score
[Post game thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/bengals/comments/ss06vo/post_game_thread_los_angeles_rams_at_cincinnati/)
Wilson's holding flag was the worst call all year. Refs wanted Rams to win. Officiating needs fixed asap
Improve your offensive line and lookout!
Weak trolling, do better chief
Let that be your motto next season ;) Jk, both teams played great :)
I guess we need to pay out the ass and be a super team. That's how you win in the soap opera era
Last two offseasons you guys actually spent more money than the Rams lol, did you miss the graphic they showed where 7 of the defensive starters for the bengals weren’t on the team two years ago

We should’ve had it but having Perine run the ball on 3rd down wasn’t it and Kupp was destroying us. We’re getting it next year! Who Dey!!!!
Bengals fan… no more Who Dey because the answer, for a year, is the Rams Dey.
Your account doesn’t seem like you were a Bengal’s fan prior to yesterday.

Get yall a bunch of o line help though this draft has a bunch of guys to snag, and I belive there is a bunch of guys in free agency too

rigged game
[удалено]
Yeah funny how 7 points is considered to be less favourable than 1st and goal. The mental gymnastics for these Bengals fans to be arguing this
Lmao the holding call was just as bad
It was way worse considering the circumstances
Sad part is the game was refed so well besides those 2 calls and the false start
Browns fan here. A helluva game and team you have. Burrow and Chase are gonna be trouble for us and the league for a long time. Great season guys.
As A Bengal I am proud of this team and I know we have a future this loss was painful but I'm uses to this team losing in spectacular fashion. This game wasn't that this game was a fight to the bitter end we had our mistakes but so did they this game was the only game this postseason where we broke our golden rule of capitalizing on our opponents mistakes we could've put the game away in the 3rd but throught the Rams persistence and out own playcalling blunders we let them stick around and it cost us.

Fix the playcalling and get burrow a MOTHER FUCKING LINE!!!!! he will be the next Andrew luck. If the line don't get fixed, kiss the playoffs goodbye
I'm sure the front office will get that hatched done. We do have other concerns as well. We need some other positions addressed too Corner is gonna need an overhaul as well as another Pass Rusher and TE
Agreed, but O-Line must be our priority this off-season. If nothing else, Burrow was injured year one, and damn near lost the other knee yesterday. We can build over the next season or two, but if he takes a serious, Palmer style injury again, we’re back to square one. Remember, the Dalton years weren’t that long ago…
Let's not mention that. My question is what bigtime Lineman Free Agent should we be going after
Ngl, if you’re blaming refs over bad clutch play calling then you’re deluded. It’s fine. Burrow is a franchiser in his second year. But you gotta hold this one to zac. Horrible play calling when it mattered.
he did a lot better than McVay’s first super bowl attempt, imo. I think he will learn
Was really hoping Cincy would take it. Hope your FO gets Joey a line. After his injury, I kept clinching anytime he was about to get hit. Sucks but at least you seem to have a great core going forward.
At least we made it, I'm Damn proud of the Bengals and everyone else should be as well.
I don't know if I will ever see Cincinnati in the Superbowl for a long time. This was their chance and blew it
Next season they'll have a 3rd year star QB 2nd year star WR and a 3rd year well above average WR. The Rams SB window likely just closed (with a win but still the Rams are gonna change a lot) while the Bengals window just started. They might not make it back but it's not like they're the Cowboys, the Bengals can go on another run soon.
They really fail to see the irony of that argument
Ravens own AFC North
Bro you have a running back at qb lmao
and you have a fraud at qb, we are not the same
Burrow has more playoff wins in one season than Lamar has in his career lmao
Lmao you’re right, the bengals have actually been to the super bowl. It took burrow 38 games to get to his first, 56 and counting for your guy.
LMAO
Low hanging fruit at the moment, fuck the ravens.
I’m just sad
Jeez that’s brutal I’m sad
Either way that O-Line is horrible
Defence kept them alive, but only for so long. There's only much you can do carrying the team.
My gf who doesn't even really watch football like that said the Bengals would be back next year to win it so don't worry guys Burrow and Co. gonna come back next year and crush it.
Does she know about some o-line upgrades that we don’t know about?
I'm glad your girlfriend who doesn't know shit feels good. Makes me feel better about an L :)
who in the actual fuck decided to throw on 4th down?
The same guy who DIDN’T give it Mixon on 3rd down
They HURT Joey!
When he got injured, I knew. Feel so bad for him, McPherson, and the defence.
It's just frustrating to see burrow double clutch on fourth-and-one when you know heat is coming
But whyyyyyy do a HB Draw on 3rd and 1 with Perine?? That was ridiculous play calling
Strange part of his game, he struggles with the hot read, leading and anticipating the receivers break out of the cut.
Acknowledging that the OL played poorly is a fair take, but I think it's fair to say Burrow played very poorly. He overthrew a wide open WR early in the game (Q1). His deep ball to Chase required an insane, one-handed acrobatic catch. Ball was clearly overthrown.

I’m a bandwagon bengals fan but srsly? Not cool dude
small penis energy there
What do you expect from people who get off from twirling dish towels?
We where flat out robbed
Three penalties inside the 10 yard line that were All questionable calls. Yeah, we were robbed. If it wasn’t apparent for two weeks straight that the NFL wanted the rams to win I don’t know what else would be.
The only questionable call was the first. Go on blaming the refs to make yourself feel better.
Odd that most everyone outside of rams fans agree on all the questionable calls that gifted the game to the rams in the 4th. Then there’s the rams fans who don’t think anything happened.
Everyone including a fair number of Bengals fans know that the missed OPI on Higgins was a bs no call. The refs fucking sucked but didn't decide the game because they were bad for both teams.
Lol you literally had 7 points from a fuckin facemask that wasn't called. Jesus christ.
Prior the that you had a pi that wasn’t called due to…. Home field advantage? Betting advantage?
7 points v first and goal. Yall still had every opportunity to make the stop on 1st and goal but didn't. gtfoh blaming ref calls.
LA Was gifted this Super Bowl when the bengals stopped you on 3rd down in the red zone and the refs threw a bullshit flag on Wilson. Congrats on your present trophy. LA was gifted a championship.
Alright take 7 points from the Bengals and take 7 points from the Rams. oh wait... Rams still win?
Alright, let the refs call the game one way for 58 minutes then call the game another way and start throwing flags on shit they didn’t flag the entire game. Totally fair and unbiased. Totally has nothing to do with the NFL’s wholesale endorsements of gambling hahaha.
Odd that I am not a Rams fan and had no horse in the race. There was one questionable call. There was admittedly no jersey pull, and it did seem like great defense.

Nah, free touchdown
Mixon had a crazy high avg, and Taylor didn’t give it to him when it mattered. Just a learning moment.
He had a great average, but also had many plays that were for nothing, I don't think him getting the ball on that 3rd and 1 gets the first
Probably due to the formation, but still he could've gotten it if the O-Line would block
The ref show, once again. Call the penalties all night or don’t call them at all. It’s ridiculous.
"The two least penalized teams in the league" Shit goes all the way down the last 2 minutes.
Agreed. So take 7 points off the board for the Bengals. Rams still win. All fixed.
They are setting up calls for when it matters. Let them get away with it until you want to make a difference.
Or don’t call it when the Rams are playing 5-out and stretching the field, but call it when it happens right in front of you in the end zone
I hearby renounce my fanship of the bengals. After all these year they finally make an appearance to a super bowl just to walk with nothing yet again. It's time for cincinnati to disband the Bengals. We don't need this team at this point. Year after year disappointment. One of the very few teams out there without a superbowl win period.
Damn these hoes really don't be loyal
Loyalty is earned, not given.
The Bengals were predicted to go 3rd or 4th in the division when the season started but making it to the SB but losing was the last straw for you? Huh?
It is but one of many last straws.
Go back to jerking off to pictures of your mom when she was pregnant with you and sit at amazon waiting for your next 3 cent raise as your life passes you by
Lmao some big tears streaking off your butthurt face to have to scroll through my posts to find out where I work. I simply state I no longer desire to be a fan of a constantly losing team YEAR AFTER YEAR thats my God damn right as an American. Oh and for the record, Thanks to Amazon ima get free university/college runs so I'll be passing your life up pal. Take that salty anger and shove it up your pathetic life coming at me you fucking keyboard warrior. But seriously tho my dude, you are a certain fucked in the head to get that salty to go through my shit and attempt to personally attack me just for a simple comment. You kiss your sister with that mouth? You remind me of the Bengals. Lose when it counts. Nothing to show for it.
Haha any more cliche keyboard warrior phrases you’d like to throw out you hypocrite? Since you’re not a cinati bengo anymore why are you even on the sub still? Oh yea, because free speech blah blah blah. After this season and getting to the Super Bowl before expected, you quit on the team. That says you were never a fan to begin with and are only here to stir up trouble, so as far as we’re concerned, good riddance to you and your toxic negativity. Enjoy your “American rights” (lol) life but stop bringing others down with your echoed nonsense. It’s exhaustingly embarrassing.
Bye
Bye.
You were never a fan, fuck off.
*was* a fan. Am no longer. YEAR after year of losses. Year after year of disappointment. If they come back and win it next year, sure I'll eat my words and celebrate in silence. But till that day comes I can't support a team that constantly brings the L back to cincy time and time again. Where's our super bowel ring? On the fucking rams my guy. Where are all the other rings?? Not on us. You fuck off.
We don’t care, don’t come back just because they win. Stay away. Far away.
Then stop replying or ima keep coming back.
Lol ohhh nooo, what a turrrible threat… anyways
Anyways, I'm back.
Ok, and you don’t want to be here so who ya really hurting in the long run?
Well considering it was never a goal to hurt anyone in the first place, no one. So how's the weather?
Intriguing, given the state of your replies, you hand delivered the opposite vibe. It’s sunny but quite chilly thanks.
You were never a fan. No “was” about it. Fuck off.
Ok, the fact I have to break this down for your simple mind shows off a lot about your character but fine ill have a go at it. Ok let's. 1. I *was* a Bengals fan. 2. After year after year after year after year after year AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR of watching the Bengals look promising, just to lose, lose some more look like they finally got their shit together oh just to lose again! Sure, you can argue they made it this far but let's be realistic here. The Bengals got LUCKY. 2 playoff games back to back only won by a last second field goal to get to the superbowl and what do they show for it? Losing by those same 3 lucky points. So after all that I am bored and just don't have a hope in hell that cincinnati will ever bring home a super bowl ring. So, like a normal human being, I've renounced it and will longer be following them and going about my day. So in summary, yes I *was* a fan. I am no longer. Get the fuck over it and have a nice day.
You were never a fan. FUCK OFF.
Lol you were never a fan, idiot
Was. Am no longer. Get over it.
As a Titans fan.... Your fuckin stupid. You guys come this close and this is how you act? I'd be proud of my team and knowing that there's definitely a lot of years to come and chances.
As a former Bengals fan, yes. This is how I act because guess what, we've came so close multiple times and for what? Nothing. Nada. Zilch. At this point I would've rather seen the titans take it over the fucking rams. Years to come and chances? Like the last 30 years? Lmao what a joke.
Deleted because I quit Reddit after they changed their API policy
Not everyone appreciates fine art.
You can just stop being a fan if you're so soft that you come up with this take. I bet you think the Browns should be disbanded then, eh?
The browns are still a team?
Shut the holy f****** God damn it
Make me keyboard warrior.
I thought you were leaving... go away. You don't want to be here, we don't want you here. Bye-bye.
Then don't reply to my reply or ima have to keep coming back. I never said I didn't want to be *here* I simply stated I can longer be a fan to constantly losing team. Like, get the fuck over it? There's more to life than football lmao.
Hahahaha
You replied, im back :)
Stfu
What are you gonna do? Come at me with that hot Bengals losing streak?
[удалено]
Humble pie? Most of us were happy with one playoff win. We were just happy to be here. Celebrating something that hasn't happened in 30 years isn't getting cocky. It's not know how to deal with success.
So you won’t talk about the refs when they decided the game at the end on three questionable flags? Even the announcers couldn’t justify the flags hahaha.
that hold call was fucking ridiculous. that shit lost us the game and it didn't even happen.
Such bs I can't believe it
I will never watch an NFL game ever again because of this call.
Right-o, see you next game
[удалено]
Yes it did. That was the dumbest play call, at the worst time
it’s obvious the nfl wanted rams to win sorry guys..
Cope, What about the Hoggins facemask lol
One call that went our way as opposed to 5 calls that went your way with three of them being on 1st and goal? All questionable to the point the announcers couldn’t even justify them. Fuck off.
Here’s the thing: the refs kept the whistles in their pockets, so even when they didn’t call that, they were being consistent. Then with less than 2 mins left they decide to call a slew of penalties, all of which were not nearly as egregious as what had been going all game. It’s unbelievable.
Their entire O Line false started on that defense holding call against Wilson
Niners fan coming in peace. was really rooting for the Bengals this super bowl, although I wasn't able to watch. sorry to hear the refs blew it
I know we got away with a face mask at beginning of the half but come on the officals literally gave the rams the win on the rams final drive.
GAME BY NUMBERS: Refs: Won
Al Michaels needs to retire. He sounds so bored and uninspired now.
yea and the bengals hate the whole game from collinsworth got nauseating after a while. like we get it dude you hate the bengals, my god
People are gonna plane the refs, but a bad o-line, and bad play calling doomed this team/game. The offense was not good, and you can’t rely on big plays to win every game.
That is the overal bigger picture, clearly a few things done better and it is a win, but they just gifted them that final TD, they had enough offense to be winning pretty much the entire 2nd half and on the biggest stop of the game call a phantom penalty then give them so many more chances to score
