    Burrow's great, but we should remember that the real reason they're in this game is that Mahomes turned into Carson Wentz in the second half yesterday. Then again, the team that gives the Rams the most trouble is the Rams, so that could happen again. But if my team's weakness was its offensive line, I'd be a little worried about going up against a highly motivated Aaron Donald.

    Exactly. Donald and A’Shawn Robinson against that offensive line is an invitation to homicide.

    Holy shit you’re right. Wonder how much of that went to waste, since your average Superb Owl ticket holder regards shrimp cocktail as kiddie food.

    OBJ had 100 yards receiving last night, and was huge in December and January.
    Von Miller made big plays late in the season and last night.
    Eric Weddle was playing pickup basketball 2 weeks ago and led the team in tackles last night.

    I wouldn't have thought 'the LA factor' was a thing, but it keeps happening.

    I'm guessing this was an autocorrect typo, but it made me laugh. It's like the NFL's trademark police that make every non-sponsor call it "The Big Game" finally cracked down on SJ and now we have to call it the Superb Owl.

    It’s become internet-speak for a way to mention the game and take a little air out of the Shield’s trademark police.

    I laugh at how Vegas casinos still advertise "The Big Game" parties given that there's now a franchise on the Strip and, in case you haven't noticed, the NFL is now in bed with gambling.

    I don't think its a gambling thing. Its a trademark on the term Super Bowl.
    A restaurant franchise can hold a drawing for tickets and air fare, and the still call it "the Big Game" because they haven't paid the Shield for the rights to use the term.
