Defensive play call on the last play of the game (before the FG) was really bad. Go for a sack on a QB in his own territory and give single coverage to the best WR in the game who has torched you all game long

2 fumbles by Akers, turnover on the botched snap, and a missed fg by Matt Gay and of those plays don’t happen the Rams are on the plane right now to LA. Rams played to win at the end knowing you can’t put the ball in Brady’s hands in OT went for the grand slam and got it.

But showed why he's the GOAT. Down 27-3 well into 3Q, Bucs tied it with 0:48 left. But Stafford hit a bomb to set up last second FG. What a game!
You serious? Rams should've won that game by 30 points. They gave the ball to the Bucs over and over with a short field. Probably an even bigger meltdown/choke than the Falcons Super Bowl. That was all the Rams melting down and nothing to do with the Bucs.

A bit off topic. Rodgers is going to win the MVP but Cooper Kupp had 145 catches, 1,947 yards and 16 touchdowns this season. They should just rename the MVP the quarterback award.

Brady is obviously great even though I have never been a Pats fan. To his credit he took advantage today, but boy did the Rams leave every door and window in the house open for him. Even that short winning FG was pretty close to the upright.

Rumor he may call it a career....good way to go out short of a title. Did all he good, if got ball back with 20 seconds probably would have found a way lol.

The game was gift wrapped with those blunders and strips and fumbles. The Rams tried to give it to him. But...what a throw with 28 seconds left!
You make it sound like Steven Krajewski could've tied it up.

Rams D owned Brady for almost 3 quarters. Bucs had to keep Gronk in to block on a lot of plays, limiting Brady's options. And he was w/o Antonio Brown. Seemed impossible, and even with all the Rams miscues, it still seemed highly unlikely.

Rodgers is not the MVP

Brady showed why he is the greatest to ever put on a NFL uniform even though his team didn't show up until late in the game.
I can't see him walking away with the unbelievable stats he put up at 40 yo but if he does he doesn't need to look back and say "what if"
Hail to the GOAT

And I'm a Giants fan

That was one of the sloppiest, worst-played playoff games I can recall. It sure was entertaining though.
All three games so far have been entertaining.

Most amazing is all three games won by the underdog on the road, all with 4 seconds with a stopped clock and a field goal as time ran out.

Sloppy but entertaining game. Too bad Brady didn’t see Scotty Miller on his last incompletion. Miller was open for the first down,

The Rams tried so hard to choke the game away. Aside from the pass to Evans, Brady had almost nothing to do with it.

There were 4 turnovers and pass interference to help him get there plus moving out of FG range and fumbling by Rams. Missed FG at 47 yards . Brady was beat up today and he was beat with pressure today. He's the best of all time and the Rams almost gave it away.
