GAME DAY SNF: Vikings at Lions - For #1 Seed in NFC

My opinion won't be popular but I think Campbell gives them their toughness. He drives an environment where intensity and toughness are required, and he gets the most from that roster.

He is a bonehead on gameday quite often. But that team would not be as consistent as they are without him.

I would love to see them bounced in their first game though. I think that intensity they field, as always, can be muted with a steady mashing of run game. And I think our starting OL, if healthy, is capable of leaning on them.

Campbell got the Lions out of their SOSAL mentality. But he’s an easy guy to hate when you lose to him. Same as Siriani. The key is to beat these meatheads.

GAME DAY Seapigeons at Rams - Game Day Thread

Ramstien
To be honest with you the game was closer than I thought it would be after the way it started out. I thought the backups on offense played better than I expected. Garoppolo had a nice game other than the interception and the poor pass at the end of the game. The backups on the OL held their own which surprised me. I hated to see Corum go down with the injury because I was looking forward to seeing him in this game, but Rivers had a nice game. Finally, Karthy came up big and gained some confidence moving forward.

The Rams are planning to rest some key starters this weekend. They may have up to 7 inactive, so who would you sit?

THE KNOWN KNOWNS (announced)
1. Matthew Stafford
2. Rob Havenstein

THE UNKNOWN KNOWNS (unannounced, but obvious)
3. Cooper Kupp
4. Kyren Williams

I’m very positive these 4 players above will sit. The ones below may be put on rest. Though some others might have limited snaps like Puka, Fiske, and V8.

THE KNOWN UNKNOWNS (keep that pressure fresh, not rookies)
5. The Conductor
6. Agent 0

THE UNKNOWN UNKNOWN (contract year and may be a Rams offer he can’t refuse)
7. Alaric Jackson

Who are your candidates to rest this week?

Official results posted here:

I was fairly close, but neither the conductor or agent 0 will be “fully resting”. It appears Nacua and Dotson will deservedly get a week off to heal up for the playoffs!

Is this offense better than the Rams 2021 team?

Ramstien
To me the jury is still out on this 2024 team, they have grown and developed since the start of the season especially on defense. I look for the backups on offense today to showcase their abilities. This is their opportunity to shine, I expect they will take that to heart. Lastly the Rams are playing the hated Seahawks in L.A. what a better way to end the season then to send those bitches home crying.

FEATURE ROD poll: Resting starters

Classic Rams
Merlin said:
Can't wait to get a look at:

:helmet: Emanuel Forbes. Seattle is a strong matchup for him and Durant and they will need to cover without our starting front.

:helmet: Brennan Jackson. Expected him to win a depth role by now. This is a nice chance for him to show what he can do.

:helmet: Jacob Hummel. He looked good in preseason, brings range. Show the coaches something young feller.

:helmet: John Johnson. McVay may protect him this week. But I'd like to see him knock the rust off.

Brennan Jackson there's a name I haven't heard of since training camp. I was thinking he'd be in the rush LB rotation at some point. But they like Hoecht there, who does very good rushing but sucks in coverage. Looking forward to see what Jackson can bring there because Hoecht definitely needs to be taken off coverage responsibilities. The Rams have been gambling there hoping the QB gets hurried before they can expose him, with some undesired results.

Saquon Barkley on pace to break Eric Dickerson’s record, and faces bad run defenses ahead

I have to say, it would be pretty selfish of Barkley if he made his oline play and put them in harms way just to break an individual record. Unless he wants to try it with the backup oline.

Yeah… The key factor may be how many starters would have to play against a highly stacked box to make it happen. I still have to wonder how the rest of the team feels about it.

It’s interesting to think about it in context of McVay. Sean elected to let Puca get his record and then immediately pulled him. You know the whole team wanted him to get those records.
PhillyRam said:
I will add, he plays, he doesn't get the record, he then plays poorly in the playoff game and they lose, and then the fans say he sucks and want him traded.

Jeanty vs. Penn State, Carter, Warren - anybody watching?

Outstanding is a bit generous a term imo. PSU rushed for 292 yards against them. Thats not great defense.
Click to expand...
Penn St. 297 (8.7)
Boise 221 (6.7)
Purdue 208 (5.2)
Ohio St. 181 (5.8)

But it was more than the rushing yards. 37 pts to PSU, 34 pts to Boise and 41 to OSU. That's an average of 37 PPG to those 3. That is not a great defense. Coupled with the rushing yards, it's pedestrian.
