To the Dads out there with sons.....

I've posted my logical reasons why I like the Rams already, but here are a couple more that are.....well, here you go

Let's say you Dads out there were a head coach in the NFL at one time in your football career. Years later your son became a coach in the NFL. Head coach or assistant coach, whatever. And let's say you, Dad, got your ass kicked the only time you got to the Super Bowl as a head coach. And how about Grandpa? For all his success as a Super Bowl winning executive, he's more known as the blithering idiot of a coach that called a running play when he could have just taken a knee to win a game.

John Fassel...special teams coach. Rams. Son of Jim...Head coach Giants in SB XXXV. Lost 34-7

Sean McVay...head coach. Rams. Grandson of John...Head coach Giants 1978. Loses game 19-17 when they fu ble a handoff instead of taking a victory formation.

Wouldn't your son or grandson want to win their Super Bowl for Dad and / or Gramps? Abso-friggin-lutely.

Enjoy the game!

No doubt that in family get togethers McVay has heard these old glory football stories.

Not sure revenge plays much of a part in competitive sports...it certainly does in the workaday world of human beings. People spend a lot of time figuring out ways to 'fix each other's wagon'. Covers is a prime example of that one at work. 

or maybe McVay will just fall in the failed lineage listed above.  Who knows?  we will see soon.  Good luck with your plays.

Don't forget to put your thumb in your butt for the entire game or it won't work

Could you or somebody else please list the NFL coaches who lost each super bowl that didnt REALLY want to win? Because I love your angle that McVay has a Dad who lost and a Grandpop who lost...and so he is gonna really, really, really want to win this game. But I'm just curious as to how many coaches who lost the Super Bowl also really really wanted to win. Cause that would help this handicapping angle no doubt.

Let me know. Thanks
