Lovely, cheers. Iā€™ll have enough of the ads from watching the end of the golf.

Packers intend to go all in for 2022 with Erin.

And the Colts are getting rid of Wentz. With the team they have, theyā€™ll be an attractive destination

I think weā€™ll see sacks and plenty of them tonight. Could be a tight low scoring game with a missed kick the difference in the teams. Iā€™ll be looking for the secondary receivers to step up with kupp and chase getting special attention.

I like Rams to lead at the half. Bengals coaching team have been very good at making adjustments as needed and will finish strong. Rams 24-20.

Whatā€™s Burrow run line? I fancy him to be on his skates a bit tonight.

If theyā€™re to win theyā€™ll have to make lots of quick short throws - just keep the chains moving and your O on the field. He has shown plenty of times this year that he can figure a team out and lead second half come backs but you donā€™t want to be massively behind here. Itā€™s gonna be warm and he doesnā€™t want his D gassing so he needs to lead some nice drives first half and keep everything ticking over. Miller and that bum Donald will be coming hard out of the blocksā€¦ Keep the fucks on the field as long as possible. I think Bengals right side of their line is the weak point so it will be a lot if Donald rather than Von Miller.

Bengals D is decent and can get to Stafford. Can he keep his cool?

On paper itā€™s a Rams win but Iā€™ll take Bengals. Mon Joe!

11.5 odd.

Mixon and boyd could see plenty targets. Theyā€™ll need to get rid of it quickly. Yeah stafford can be got at and heā€™s a cert to throw a pick. I just think in the pressure cooker environment of a superbowl, who is going to lead and galvanise the Bengals through a storm. I donā€™t think burrow is there yet. Rams have plenty leaders and itā€™ll be experience that gets them through. (As long as McVay doesnā€™t try and be a hero with stupid calls and challenges)

If CJ Uzomah can do anything at all even block a bit thatā€™s huge, massive like.

A lot on Mixons shoulders to keep making third down manageable but theyā€™ll have to go for it through the air. Tee Higgins MVP outsider

Higgins or a Van Jefferson :+1:

I canā€™t see anything but a Rams win. The Bengals have done great to reach the game and Burrow is some bit of stuff, but thereā€™s no avoiding the fact that, as a whole, they are one of the most mediocre teams to reach the SB of the last 25 years.

The Rams D is a different animal to anything theyā€™ve seen, Donald and Miller could have a field day given how ropey the Bengals OLine is. The Bengals D is middling, Iā€™d be confident Stafford will move the ball against them. Odell has been a fantastic addition, his redzone ability is a huge factor and Iā€™m not sure the Bengals have someone to stop him.

Iā€™ll throw up one or two mug betbuilders on the betting thread for fun, but Rams to cover -2.5 in both halves at 7/5 is the main bet, and then the same bet with Odell anytime TD at 11/2.

Are they really though?

No, they are a more than decent side and deserve their place here, you donā€™t come back and beat the Chiefs twice in a few weeks unless you have the right intangibles.

Going off the eye test, yes. Theyā€™ve got hot in the playoffs, but during the regular season and entering the playoffs they were not considered a contender. The OLine is really not good and the defense is unremarkable, it says a lot that Hendrickson is their main man.

Going off the analytics, yes as well. This chart shows how untypical a SB team they are, only the 2012 Ravens for company, and they were a team that did pass the eye test.

Rams just shortened half a point.

In the wild a ram wouldnā€™t have a prayer against a Bengal but thatā€™s not hugely relevant tonight

Going out for a run now to clear the head before coverage starts. Have the chicken wings marinading, and half time beers in the fridge. Today will be a great day.
