couldn't the defense have risen up and stopped the Rams? The Rams proceeded to go through the Saints like a hot knife through butter. Probably should have scored a TD at the end of regulation.

Did Payton's meltdown hurt the defense?

The chiefs got in FG range with 39 seconds left and you are bitching about forcing a 48 yarder after 1:41? I thought the defense stepped up actually

I'm sure they were physically and mentally done, especially after the no-call

Playing against a kicker that makes it from 70. There was zero chance the Rams weren’t gonna be in position to kick the game tying fg

I don’t think people realize how difficult it is for a defense to hold an NFL offense to just a field goal. The game favors the offense heavily and when you have an offense as good as the Rams it’s all the more difficult.

Another NFL spin doctor.

Blame the victims.

Spin doctors are legion.

Would have been helpful if we ran on 1st down and gave Goff under 1 minute to work with. Our chances would have been so much better with Goff having no timeouts and 40 seconds left to go to get to FG range.

How many times do we have to win the fricking game?

From the 3rd down timeout bullshite, to the two PI miscalls from the same fricking player, it should've been put away a long time ago. Refs kept resuscitating the Rams until we were worn out.

Right

The Rams had to go 35 yards in 1:40 to setup a FG for Zuerlein
