That is a shitty take. I wish it wasn't true. Joe was definitely rattled.  RG and RT couldnt start for Bama. 
Zac called a horrible 2nd half. The PI on Wilson was awful. 
Hargraves running on the filed and Paris throwing a punch in the SB are massive red flags oif stupidity.

I thought Hopkins did a decent job.

I know it's football, and I know the other teams have highly played players and coaches...but, this team is too consistent in coming out slowly and depending on the late 2nd quarter and early 3rd quarter to be enough to win the whole game.  

I really thought Burrow was going to have his own curse-breaking "Joe Montana with too much time left" moment and when it looked like the Bengals were easily within FG range to send it to OT due to the Rams botching the XP, he'd just outright score a TD and end it all.  So it goes.  Maybe next year we just flat-out steamroll the team we play in the SB and that is the highlight of our lives a year later than we had hoped.

You gotta think they use that cap space and draft capital to fix the line. No one gave us a chance in hell, we lost by three. Helluva game. Great season.....hope we get another shot. If not... I've seen another awesome run one more time. I was 12 the last time. Bittersweet

 I hear ya.....a quarter billion the last two seasons on defense points to a potential change. All we can do is trust. If not, well, I'll be dead by the next one....you ****ers hold down the fort!
