I'm just getting caught up in the boogeyman that is the Rams defensive line and I can't shake it. Literal Vietnam flashbacks to the Titans game.
But it's not just that. A lot of things have gone our way the last three games and I'm kinda bracing for the other shoe to finally drop. The offense has been pretty dormant. All three wins came off of critical turnovers. They had to come back from an 18-point deficit against the Chiefs. It's just... you can't bank on any of these things in the Super Bowl. I know the Bucs stormed back against the Rams, but their offensive line is decidedly better than ours. Despite doing it twice against the Chiefs, I am very confident that if we're down by 17 points against this Rams team we aren't pulling it off.
They need to play a complete, near-perfect game where both units show up. So far in the post-season I've not seen it all come together.
Actually I am predicting the Rams go up 17-0 early and we come back and win. Just the way Joe Brrrr plays. Takes a bit for
Burrow to figure out the Defense and then we pounce. The Defense might struggle a little early too and then put their foot
down like they did to Mahomes and the Chiefs Offense.
I said it before, I am not betting against our guys even if we are down big. We just cannot be down too much without much
time. As long as it is still early when the Rams are up we can always come back as we have seen.
Also have a feeling we have been holding some things back on Offense as this is the main part of our team I have been
disappointed with in the Playoffs. Hope the Offense finally explodes and we score a bunch of TD's.
