The Chiefs and Rams Gave Us Football at It’s Most Insane and Glorious | The Big Lead

Rams Prevail In Super Bowl Light, But The Real Winner Is The NFL | Forbes
Say what you will about the state of defense in the modern NFL (I’ve said plenty), but if we’re looking at more games like this one, what’s not to love? It’s not often I get texts from my mom and two ex’s during one game. Tecmo Bowl is reality.

It’ll take a while to digest. And I’m glad I bought laundry detergent yesterday, because... yeah, this game was a real benchmark for the 2018 season and beyond. Where do we go from here? Well, into a bye week, for starters. Whew.
Chiefs WR Sammy Watkins sees limited time in return | NFL.com
During the preseason, when the Los Angeles Rams let Sammy Watkins walk and traded for Marcus Peters, many pointed to their eventual showdown on the gridiron. It didn’t quite work out that way, as the overpaid and oft-injured Watkins was barely on the field.
VIDEO: Andy Reid, Marcus Peters hug following ‘MNF’ thriller | Rams Official
Awwww. Hey, good to see it. Papa Bear Andy Reid is a good dude, and a hell of a coach, and his manly embrace of his traded CB is nice to see. Peters didn’t get torched on the night, and was able to secure what should have been a game-sealing INT.
Alexander: Rams-Chiefs was played where it belonged | OC Register
Absolutely. Given the events that have transpired in Southern California of late, many hitting very close to home for the Rams, the Coliseum was a fitting place for such a legendary battle. The community deserved it.
Saints may have a tougher road to the top seed in the NFC than the Rams | Ramblin’ Fan
On paper, New Orleans does indeed have a bit tougher schedule. They seem to be doing just fine, though. Even at 10-1, the Rams will need to more or less win out if they’re to edge the Saints for home field throughout.

Lots of laundry on Monday night, but it did seem to go both ways. Twitter reacts.

Andrew Whitworth and Jared Goff met with the Borderline victims families privately after the game. Whitworth, who gave his suite to some of the victims families tonight, fought off his emotions when asked about it after the game. @CVRamsClub
