What do you think of the use of Tayson Hill at QB?

Why you use him there when Brees is your QB I don’t really understand!?!

He’s a mis match, he can throw, run a keeper. He’s basically a utility player. Very hard to game plan for, especially for the odd play.

Just watched the Rams highlights - that’s a shocking call by the officials not to give that as pass interference , that was a game changer

I’ll be supporting Brady and the Pats on Super Bowl night.

Much as I dislike the Pats, and will never forget the Tuck Rule game, New England are the lesser of 2 evils here. The Rams should never have been given the LA market again, that decision was corruption at its finest. Almost as corrupt as the officiating last night in the Superdome. The NFL clearly wanted their pet owners Kraft and Kroenke in the Super Bowl. Worst non-call ever last night.

So I hope the Patriots win it. The Rams and Chargers fans combined are still outnumbered 10-1 by Raiders fans in LA, and I’d rather that the Raiders remain the only franchise to have won the Super Bowl for the city of angels.

Was a Charger fan as that's where the sister in law relocated to and so took them on by "proxy" having been a Redskins fan since NFL came to C4 way back when. I really don't see what LA are getting with another franchise when the Raiders & Rams have been established for so long. What do they stand to gain? Certainly can't be an increased fan base compared to what they had

As a Chiefs fan I was gutted last night, great comeback to watch in the 2nd half. Got to hand it to Brady how he finds a way to get it done.

Mahomes is the real deal, going to be one of the greats if he can stay healthy.

Rams are relatively new back in town having relocated back there from St Louis. Though they were previously the LA Rams before that as well.

As all things sports the move will have been for Money, simple economics from the owners I guess.

Homer, the Raiders have been in Oakland for 20 years. The Chargers had to leave San Diego because of lease issues and funding over Qualcomm Stadium so they signed an agreement to share the Rams' new stadium when it is completed in 2020. The Raiders will move to Las Vegas then as well as the Oakland Coliseum is only the second most modern Coliseum in the world after the one in Rome.

It is Sean Payton trying to prove to the NFL how clever he is to scheme Hill into the game. Sam Wyche used to do it in the late 80s with the Bengals and then my Bucs in the early 1990s. We used to call it "Mike Martz Disease" on Sky after the Rams' head coach who designed the "Greatest Show on Turf" offense that won the Super Bowl and then when he took over as coach from Dick Vermiel, went on a mission to prove what a complete genius he was. He failed miserably.

PS, Kyler Murray, how good is he? Who in the first round draft is that bad they need a QB?

I liked coach's comment on the sky coverage on Sunday night.
To paraphrase: "none of these guys are geniuses, geniuses are out there trying to cure cancer. These guys just have really good football brains"

Ah Kyler Murray, the "superstar two sport athlete". Who is about 5-9 and could only succeed in a shotgun-based college offense. Some NFL desperate team will take him with a fair few needing QBs in the first round but he is the riskiest proposition since Tebow was ridiculously drafted in the 1st round by Denver. Murray was a 1st round pick by the Oakland A's in the baseball draft last year but prospects there take a few years in the minor leagues before they become ready for the major league game. He has a potential $6M contract with Oakland that would become void if he plays football and he would have to repay his $2M signing bonus. He is represented by the most powerful agent in baseball, Scott Boras. He would earn more as a 1st round pick in the NFL but it was would be a truly epic gamble for a team to mortgage their future by drafting him early.

Bill Simmons got booted from his successful podcast on ESPN for repeatedly calling commissioner Roger Goodell a few choice names including liar and cheat. He went off to HBO to set up the Ringer and has become even more successful there.
