We have Bingo. Although I think it was just as much for his own benefit. Who wants to answer those awkward questions from Nantzy anyway?

i really hope we can give randy his first ring in 2 weeks. as one of if not the best to ever play his position, he deserves one as much as any player if u ask me.

Randy was the first player off of the field by about 5 minutes. The rest of the team stayed on to celebrate and get a shirt or hat. Randy left before he could get either. Not everyone waited for the trophy presentation to start. I think Seymour and another O-lineman went off together. But they did talk with Chargers then celebrate with teammates.

That makes the most sense. Any interview would have had the assault incident somehow worked into it. If I were Moss I wouldn't want to deal with that nonsense either.

I'd guess that was exactly it and good for him.

That makes a lot of sense. I hope that's the reason. I just wanted to see the guy having enjoy his first conference title considering all the crap he's had to put up with this week and throughout his career.

If we're speculating, maybe he's disappointed he didn't have a big game. I don't know though, hopefully it's no big deal.

I think Randy wants to be low-key. Or he may have been told by his legal team to keep a low profile once the game is over.

Seriously? He was probably avoiding the media due to the events of the past week. He also didn't have a press conference despite having one last week with the same production.

Maybe he has his own way of celebrating? Who cares really.
