Aqib Talib dropped F-bomb in response to DeMarcus Lawrence

Aqib Talib stepped into a live postgame interview on FOX and dropped an F-bomb that was widely noted, but there actually is some context to it.

FOX NFL reporter Chris Myers conducted an interview with Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff after the team’s 30-22 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday. Talib came in during the middle of the interview and dropped an F-bomb, saying the Cowboys didn’t take their quarterback’s soul.

Here’s the video, but beware of the curse word.

What the heck was Talib talking about? He actually was making a reference to what Cowboys defensive lineman DeMarcus Lawrence said during the week about wanting to take the quarterback’s soul.

Instead, the Rams wound up with a soul-snatching win from Dallas. Goff was 15-of-28 for 186 yards and converted a big first down on the ground to ice the game. He mostly took a back seat to the team’s rushing attack, which amassed 273 yards.

At least Talib didn’t drop the F-bomb on a reporter this time.
