“SUPER SUNDAY ON ROAD TO SUPER BOWL”
=======
What a Sunday in the AFC-NFC Championship games:
PATRIOTS-BRONCOS…What a wild day in the wild elements…Drake Maye does what he has done in each of his playoff games this winter-survive early-stabilize the offense-make plays…He did all that and he beat the weatherman in the ‘whiteout conditions’…The longer it went the harder it got for journeyman QB-Jarrett Stidman…The weather did him in and eventually the Pats defense caught up to him too..What a chess game it was in the first half before the weather got bad…Denver and Sean Payton dominated with motion offenses, QB rollouts, and a few big plays…But then Mike Vrabel changed everything going late in the second quarter-dialing up blitz packages that disrupted the flow of that Denver offense..And then the big plays showed up, most all made by the Pats defense…The fumble recovery…the late interception in the snow…the 4th down stop…the 3-sacks-13-pressures from that angry mob defense..and then the win. Great season in Denver for Payton…Greater bounceback season in New England with Vrabel going from worst to first…Snowman celebration for the Patriots.
RAMS-SEAHAWKS..What a night in the Pacific Northwest in a football mad city…What a resurrection of a career for QB-Sam Darnold…What a disappointment for all the great things Matthew Stafford has brought to LA..and a heartbreak for the leadership of Sean McVay…It was ‘Chunk Play City’ all night…QBs with guns ablaze series by series…The two teams combined for 50-first downs…a combined (875Y) on offense…The Seahawks QB threw for (346)…the Rams star threw for (374)..and the WRs were dazzling, Puka Nacua (9R-165)..Jaxson Smith-Njiba (10R-153)…The defenses died with their boots on-nothing to do to stop the all out rocket assault…So it sets up the showdown in 2-Sunday in Santa Clara in the Super Bowl…The Seattle turnaround equal to what happened in Foxboro.
