Final 1st 2nd 3rd 4th T   Rams 0 7 0 21 28 Lions 0 14 7 0 21 Next Game: Tues Feb. 3, - 9:00 PM ET LISTEN LIVE

	John B vs. Jay Kearney for the right to go to PFL Online Superbowl I.

John B appeared to be down and out in the NFC Championship game vs. Jay Kearney. Trailing 21-7 early in the fourth quarter, it seemed as though Kearney was about to cruise towards another online championship when the wheels came off the Lions scoring machine. It took John B until the 4th quarter, but some key defensive adjustments slowed down Kearney's five wide attack and thanks to some stubborn Ram defense, John B had tied the game 21-21.

The turning point of the game however, may have been some questionable decision making by Kearney down the stretch. Faced with a 4th and 3 on his own 27 yard line, Kearney uncharacteristically gambled and went for it, and failed. That gave John B the ball, the momentum, and unfortunately for Kearney the NFC Title, as he proceeded to control the clock and go in for the winning score, to make it a 28-21 final.

Now the Rams face a rebounding Ice Ellis, who has taken advantage of his second chance at being the first baller to claim an online title and a National title. Ellis defeated both T.O. and Mike Dixon in route to his first ever online Superbowl appearance. The two will square off Feb. 3, 2003 at 9:00 PM ET.....

Swammi's Mid Term Report Card:
John B hasn't been explosive, nor has been flashy. What he has been in consistent. The Rams have done it on defense, allowing an average of 9.6 PPG. The way that John B has used the Rams offensively shows that he is not all about using a high powered team. He plays the game how it should be played, using Marshall Faulk to carry the game, and just enough from Warner, Bruce and Holt, to take care of business when needed. John B has shown that whether he has the Rams or Texans, he is a solid coach, and a game tactician. Grade: A
