Intestinal fortitude

The game was over and it was better to not put Stafford in position to have to make a deep drop and maybe get injured on a blitz.

Just kick the field goal, take your shitburger with extra shit because it's the 9ers, get on the plane, buy a case of mouthwash, rinse away this loss and move on.

Bitching about the FG like we had any chance down 24 with less than 4 minutes to play is silly.

* Opponent has large number of injuries: check
* Opponent knows how to beat current Ram team: check
* Opponent is a rival and the game means everything for the Rams: check

Rams fall apart early and often after a promising early start to the season and lose to a bad 49ers team: check

Either you need a lottery ticket or McVay's number.

As much as I dislike the pessimism, I'll have to look for your take before the GB game as we get closer to that.

I mean...damn.

Also, dammit... why'd you have to put that out there...put that evil on us...

Next time... find your happy place and help us to a win, yo!!!

Quick go back to bed. It’s a nightmare

21 Rest Stafford so he can recover from the back pains that is causing his throws to be off target lately.

Yes - I am going with the excuse that Stafford must be hurting to cause all these bad throws

Yeah, maybe. His location has been off these last two games... like way off.

All in all, a pretty good day if you're the Rams.

Reynolds did fine for a 4th round pick. Made some big plays in the NFCCG, was a solid #4 who often was the #3 with injuries to Kupp or Cooks.

Givens gad a decent rookie yr, but disappeared after that on a team that had little at the WR position.

Les Snead pulled off a trade to Baltimore which was good.Don’t know who The Rams got for him through the draft.
Thought maybe The Rams might get a comp pick for Reynolds? If your giving me a choice I’m glad The Rams have OBj right now.Reynolds last season pissed me off because of his lack of feel for the game & situations.
He went in motion & had a chance to lay a 9er out & didn’t.If he just blocks there were some big plays to be had.

The Chiefs?

This game shouldn’t even be close. Another Houston, Detroit type game. That said, I will enjoy the Whiner tears.

They were lucky to skirt by with a win last week. Colt McCoy is and will continue to be a journeyman backup. Kyler Murray. was a first overall pick that most of the time.... plays the part Hopkins can put out a pretty convincing argument, he's the best WR in the game. Or at least top 5 easily. Take those 2 out of the lineup and they aren't anywhere near the same team. Look what happened to us when we played Green Bay w/o (for the most part....) Donald. Everyone saw the writing on the wall pretty quickly.
Injuries happen. Teams have to persevere. If reserves don't step up and play fantastically, you have what you did today. Now the Cardinals are a special case. While Murray is an unbelievable talent, his overall size, makes his extremely susceptible to injury. Look how he's finished the seasons the last few years. Just beat up. And my guess that will always be a knock on him.
Now us ...... Take away those 2 unadvised plays by Stafford and we're tied in the 4th quarter. 2 plays where better judgement could have changed the outcome of the game. The Titans were better prepared and got the most out of what they had. But we're still 7-2. And only have lost to 2 teams with the same record as us. Our destiny is still in our own hands. We just have to execute.

Is Tannehill the new Tom Brady?

I hate the Saints but they got flagged for an AD like roughing the passer call that may have cost them the game. Why is Tannehill suddenly getting roughing calls when someone pushes him as he's throwing the ball and it has nothing to do with helmet to helmet or the neck area? Getting pushing in the back or side as you're throwing the ball is not a penalty.

upsets happen almost every week in the NFL

Not getting the point of this thread

I am not much of a gambler. I used to play the football parlay tickets with a group of friends. Its betting against the spread for small stakes. You wouldn't think there would be a pattern but there was. The picks were easier to get right in the first 6 weeks. Weeks 8-9 were full of upsets and we would all lose. After that it got much harder to win. There would be one week in there where we would have several winners on the same ticket. That usually happened at week 6 or 7.

I know that it wasn't picking winners and losers. However, after the midseason upsets, the spreads got tighter and more difficult to win. I always wondered why there were always multiple upsets in the middle weeks, more so than others.

The Rams just have to know they control their own destiny. Win out is all they can do and let the chips fall where they may. Remember, the top wildcard plays the worst divisional winner.

This team can win out. So it's all a matter of seeding in the playoffs. That's a whole separate season. If this team is truly a contender they should be able to strut in the front door by beating all comers no matter who. Worrying about seeding? Dudes where is your faith in our team? They don't need to sneak in the back door.

Not really. Been watching from the start. Not today anyway. He hasn't done much but they haven't asked for much. Lions are pounding the ball on them with ease. Swift is a beast and the Lions have been uber physical in the trenches.

Goff's job has been to basically manage the game. No mistakes yet. He's sooooo slow in every thing he does though. You'd think they could capitalize in the play action today.

Off Topic, ... it looks like the Rams must have restructured someone as their CAP was $1.5 mil yesterday and is listed at $2.8 mil today according to Spotrac.
