Like sacking Burrow on the last play of the game. Yup.You make your own luck.

And earlier in the game the Rams were the victim of a terrible no call that gifted the Bengals a long TD instead of the 15 yard penalty they deserved.I mean hats off to them still they got the ring, but their team didn't really look unbeatable and looked like any other good team this year. 49ers should have beat them in the NFC Championship and the Bengals got a terrible call against them that would have made it 4th and goal from the 10 on their final drive. A few things went there way and that's why their Superbowl Champs.
The trades helped make them better but they got lucky.
Not a conspiracy theorist but it felt like the NFL wanted the Rams to go far this year so that they could succeed in Los Angeles.
Those who think that is the model to follow in order to win a Championship are mistaken.
And build some strong trenches. That's the difference maker. Both teams were there due mostly to their DLines.but that's the point. most teams aren't overly dominant. its making enough good plays at the right time and pulling out a win. that's what they did.
I think the Bills beat the Bengals.The team that blew it, imo, was the Bills.
Just squib kick to the Chiefs and they almost surely win.
They'd have been a very tough matchup for Cincy
Every team gets a little lucky when winning Super Bowl. Lucky thing Neil O'Donnell threw that ball right to Larry Brown or Dallas might not win.
yes, the difference was literally the Rams DL and the Bengals OL. second year in a row a team with a weaker OL loses superbowl. outside of that one big play to start the 3rd quarter (which should have been offensive penalty), the bengals didn't do much in the second half and Burrow was sacked pressured the whole second halfAnd build some strong trenches. That's the difference maker. Both teams were there due mostly to their DLines.
They don’t have the mental fortitude for that.They won three consecutive playoff games by 3 points each. That will never happen to the Cowboys.....ever.
Whats scary is Joe B was able to get the team that far with a trash line. There defense which was middle of the pack during the regular season rose up during the playoffs for sure though. Imagine if they actually give him a line?The only thing the Rams got lucky with was facing the Bengals who no one expected to reach the Super Bowl when the playoffs started. It may take another 30 years for the Bengals to get back to the Super Bowl.
Yea, the Bills were my pick in AFC. They really messed up with 13 seconds left.I think the Bills beat the Bengals.

Yes, Winners don't look for excuses...Like sacking Burrow on the last play of the game. Yup.
The thing is it’s more of a model than it was 2 years ago.It may not be "the model" but I've seen enough of the Jerry & Stephen Show to know that model isn't winning anything.
Stafford gave away a TD forcing that pass in the endzone- LA could have been up 20 - 10 in the 2nd qtr. Then the INT in the 3rd qtr after CIN scored the go ahead TD.The Ram own the most dominate defender in the league in Aaron Donald, they have a veteran QB tossing the ball to the number one offensive threat in the NFL in Cooper Kupp, nothing lucky about it.
How did Stafford give away a TD on 3rd and 14 and throw a bomb into the endzone?Stafford gave away a TD forcing that pass in the endzone- LA could have been up 20 - 10 in the 2nd qtr. Then the INT in the 3rd qtr after CIN scored the go ahead TD.
