I will say this, I think McVay is one of the better offensive minds in the game but in big games he seems to really tighten up.
We don't see the same level of variety in his play calls and I think he was panicking after OBJ went down.
It was beyond obvious that they couldn't run against the Bengals D line. I also get you don't want Stafford to just sit in the pocket and get killed. But run some screens, some WR screens, some quick passes out to the flat. Essentially all plays that are just an extension of the run game. Things we saw this Rams team do all year. But for the entire second half they kept trying to run it down the middle and it would kill their drives.
But kuddos to McVay, Stafford, and Kupp on that last drive. That drive was something else. Really showed off all 3 guys skill sets. McVay finding ways to get Kupp the ball. Kupp making the plays. Then some of the windows Stafford was hitting on that last drive were ridiculous.
Turned out to be a damn good drive. Probably one of the best playoffs I can remember in some time. Great to see Stafford win it. Like I said before, saw a ton of him in Detroit and it was clear as day he was an elite QB just stuck in a horrible situation.

Re: Super Bowl LVI Thread
This is basically the perfect LA Superbowl, their team is full of star names they either got in trades or free agency, and it took place at home. They should be a great bandwagon team going forward if they stay good.
