Hell, people are STILL claiming Mahommes imploded but giving almost not credit to the Bengals D for causing the implosion.
Everyone's talking about the Rams defensive line (deservedly so) but no one's pointing out that the Bengals defense has twice as many sacks this postseason than the Rams defense (almost no one, anyway, I got the stat from somewhere, obviously).
So, sure, the defense heading into the playoffs couldn't really complain about being overlooked, but now, going into the Super Bowl? Yes, they can.
No doubt. That 2nd half Mahomes just imploded, had nothing to do with us changing it up and going with a 3 man front
and covering everything down the field while getting pressure. Had absolutely nothing to do with it.
