for LA Rams fans has a much more complicated place in the narrative of the game."In his Netflix special “Annihilation Greg Gaines Jersey nfl draft ,” comedian Patton Oswalt quoted his late wife who often reminded him when he got upset about cruel things that happened in the world — “It’s chaos, be kind.” The first instinct that most Los Angeles Rams felt after the blown pass interference call was a mix of denial and a happy shrug. Yes, it was obviously egregious and if the flag was called, the New Orleans Saints would most likely have sealed the game and gone onto the Super Bowl. The internet and the talking heads on radio and TV literally exploded into anger at what some have called “the worst call in the history.” Head coach Sean Peyton even said that the Saints will ‘never get over’ this call. For Rams fans, it quickly shifted to a defensive position. What about all the other bad calls during the game?One could argue that the entire game was officiated with a absolute failed sense of consistency and fair judgement that affected both sides negatively. This Jared Goff scramble in the 4th quarter was a clear face-mask penalty that didn’t have the brutal timing of the missed PI play with CB Nickell Robey-Coleman. However, when you look at the play, the Rams had to settle for a field goal instead of having first-and-goal from inside the 2. It feels like Rams fans will be making this argument for the next handful of years because that’s what life is now. We can enjoy a win because there’s also something problematic seething underneath the surface. It’s chaos. What’s clear about this game to me was that the entire game was a mess. As much as guys like Joe Buck (find me a person who doesn’t hate this dude) and Troy Aikman give the Superdome props for being insanely loud Womens Greg Gaines Jersey , it’s almost as if the NFC championship became more of a circus fueled by cocaine and absinthe than a football game. This is against the popular opinion of crowd noise (which everyone loves), but what if the Superdome simply has bad acoustics that the Saints have turned into an advantage? Maybe the refs wouldn’t have made a dozen terrible calls in a different environment.But give credit where credit is due: the Saints got hosed with that call. CB Nickell Robey-Coleman stepped up like a man and admitted that he knew it was an obvious PI that didn’t get called. Somehow that made Saints fans even more furious. The country is looking at Rams fans to see how we react to this. It’s chaos, be kind. In the end, any game that is being officiated is going to have flaws and even though we don’t want the refs to be part of the game, they are. Having a blown call like this at a game-winning moment is a nightmare for the NFL that will most likely lead to a rule change in the offseason, but it probably won’t help the issue.NFL games will always have controversy. Blown calls will still happen, even with replay and computers and robots and whatever the hell scientists come up with. Regardless of how much anger and joy are added to the cocktail Authentic Greg Gaines Jersey , the Los Angeles Rams won the game and are going to the Super Bowl. Is is fair? No, it’s football.

And the media sold their talking points for free.CSTShareTweetShareShareThe biggest lesson of Super Bowl LIII? The Los Angeles Rams lied about RB Todd Gurley’s injury. And the media did nothing to push back against it.Kirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsLos Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley was locked into a job share in Super Bowl LIII against the New England Patriots with RB C.J. Anderson because of Gurley’s knee.On December 28 in the buildup to Week 16, Gurley admitted he initially injured his knee in Week 1 against the Oakland Raiders. It was aggravated in the game prior to his public disclosure to the point that the Rams shut him down in the final two games of the regular season. And despite a huge statistical output in the divisional round of the playoffs, the impact of the injury was clear in the NFC Championship against the New Orleans Saints in which Gurley had four carries Todd Gurley Jersey , a career low, to go with just three targets.And then came the sales job.For whatever reason, the Rams decided to sell the idea that the knee was fine.“He’s feeling good, a hundred percent,” said Rams Head Coach Sean McVay just two days ago. “We expect him to play a big role in this game.”And then Gurley sat. For much of the game. At times, he’d put a towel over his head. Others, he’d be on the bike.It wasn’t just obvious he was injured.It was that it was obvious before tonight.And yet Rams media never pushed back on Gurley’s knee.Why?Has local media subsumed to the cult of McVay to the point that they’re willing to assume that anything he utters is sacrosanct? That might be fine for fans and the public Aaron Donald Jersey , but for an independent media congregation that’s supposed to make sure they report the truth, that’s an assumption that shouldn’t be made.Were they simply willing to consider the idea that the Rams might be anything less than truthful? That might be more disappointing given the Rams’ INCREDIBLY long history of playing with the truth for a variety of reasons let alone the fact that Gurley disclosed the injury in late December after 15 games of keeping it private.Did they simply buy the line that if he were injured, he’d be on the injury report? That’s awfully gullible especially given that Gurley addressed the Week 1 injury after 15 games none of which he appeared on the injury report for.And so it is. Todd Gurley will have his knee cleaned up, his injured knee that the Rams sold as being in 100% shape a line the media were happy to parrot.Perhaps now we’ll actually get answers to the questions they were unwilling to ask.
