I for one have believed in the Rams this whole season, though I took some big gulps when Woods went down and when OBJ went down tonight. But having said that, I knew with Matt, Aaron, and Cooper we had more than most, and when you add Ramsey and Miller we had more than all.

So what say you, Faith or feast?

I don't even know how to define my view... I believed they could win... but I was never comfortable that they would.
I was worried at the end of that losing streak... but felt good until the 9ers loss.

Rollercoaster.. .but I love 'em.

Faith and famine. I've had several times - particularly with players - where I've had to eat major crow. But ultimately, I always have faith that we're going to win it all (especially after the Blues in 2019 and after the St. Louis Cardinals went on that impressive 17 game winning streak), and I had faith that we'd score a touchdown when needed.

Faith. I knew with them being down only 4 points it was very very very still on the table for a dub. Plus the D starting playing like the freakshow that they are. Jalen Ramsey gets a facemask TD and then slips and falls. Those 2 plays were basically the Bengals tonight. Had the Tee Higgins TD been called, and/or Jalen doesn't fallen we're not having a heart attack game.

Had the Bengals scored even 3 I would've been feasting though.
 
I felt hopeless for some of this game. But in the fourth quarter I said "were winning this game". It was our year
 
I was so pissed off at the offensive play calling in the fourth before that last drive. But I held onto hope. I forgot who it was but they posted the Stafford come back meme at just the right time. Shout out to whoever that was.

I was pissed in one sequence.. pretty sure in the 4th Q.. where they rushed to get a play off in hopes of catching the defense in a bad spot.. and it was pure shit.

Whew.
 
I knew as long as they kept it close Stafford. Donald, and Kupp would bring it home. I was also pretty confident they would keep it close.
 
Here were my thoughts at the half: Odell was the one guy winning on offense and now he's out. They have stuffed our run game and have won with their run game. Both Chase and Higgins made some plays in the pass game. This is not good. Our defense better have the best half of their lives to win a Super Bowl.

All of a sudden, Higgins "beat" Ramsey and then Stafford got picked and I was starting to think we were going to lose this game.

Simply put, we had a few guys who refused to lose. Kupp, Donald, Stafford and McVay decided enough was enough.

I've eaten crow a few times this year. When we lost three in a row I thought there was no way we'd win it all. When the 49ers beat us the last week of the season, I again thought there was no way we'd win it all. And again here, with the injuries and then the tough start to the second half, I thought we'd end up on the wrong end of this game.

Boy am I happy I was wrong, time and time again.

McVay is the man.

I felt pretty good before the game and never gave up hope. With Stafford and AD the Rams have a 2 headed finisher. How many playoff games were won with last sec FG? The Rams D closed out the last 2 games after Stafford drove the team down for the game winning points. Every other D in that situation has given up the points in as little as 13 seconds. If Stafford doesnt run the clock out on you AD will just crush your next drive and close it out that way.

Not patting myself on the back about it, but even down 4 late, I had an unusual faith that we would win.

It was like the script was already written.
Not in a fake or contrived way... just felt like destiny.

Amazing. Stafford is amazing! Donald is the motherfucking GOAT!!
COOPER KUPP IS A DOG???
No. He's a RAM-GOAT!!!!!!
 
Let's 3-peat and seal this teams greatness in football immortality....

Step 1 of 3 ≡ complete

When obj went down I was like oh shit this may get ugly. Without kupp we don’t win anything this season. Guy maybe the best I’ve seen in my 55 years as a Rams fan

Higbee out, okay we have Blanton but where was he, OBJ getting hurt, run game getting stuffed, Stafford gets his ankle twisted, 2nd half Bengals score on 75 yard pass on first play, then get a pick, it was looking bad but I never gave up. Just another playoff game looking bleak - 3rd game in a row - only for Stafford to bring us back. Big sigh of relief.
 
Not gonna lie again I wasn’t confident especially that mid game section where obj went down and those staff pics

But once again I’ll happily be wrong for counting out cooper freaking kupp
