Loved the celebration in the end zone on Puka's TD. I rewound and watched it 3 times. Also loved McVay and Donald hugging it out twice out by midfield while McVay waited to give Colts head coach (I'm not trying to spell that last name) a hand shake
What an awesome way for Nacua to score his first TD - walk-off for an OT win!

Stafford was great in the game winning drive. Really smart with the ball and gutsy when he got injured earlier.

Folks are gonna talk about the Colts coming back from 23-0. Wev'e seen it happen many times in football and other sports.

I'm just happy with the win!!! This young team is 2-2...AND GROWING UP BEFORE OUR EYES!!!

This was similar to the Bucs playoff game. And as usual Stafford was tough as nails when we needed him.
Go Rams!!!!!!!!
Great comprsion, obviously with a lot less at stake but still a huge win because I know (2-2) is only a 1 game difference than (1-3) but it feels like a huge difference

Hell of a win. Sure we blew a big lead, but it took a lot of toughness to pull that one out. Welcome back to the Run game...

Nah it means a lot in the football scheme of things. This isn't a 150-game season after all.

I’m not going to lie. Stafford injury looks like something that could sideline him for awhile and our backup is not going to win us any games.

But what an incredible gutsy performance by Stafford to get the dub.

Puka is an unstoppable force that is playing like a man among boys as a rookie!!

I love having a huge target that can out physical defenders.

I think Stafford and Kupp sitting next week is a real possibility

It's probably a hip pointer, they are very painful and can make the entire area around it seize up in cramps but it's not a long term injury. Might be nagging for a while but he should be ok to play through it with treatment. He'll hardly be able to walk when he gets up tomorrow morning but he'll get some painful massage and physical therapy and it'll loosen up. Hopefully that's all it is.

I was gonna have to go fucking nuclear on the Football gods if they had lost that game.

As it is, the officials can go fuck themselves for the non-call on Stafford's injury.

The first half showed how good this team can be. But like any young team it's difficult for them to sustain that level of play. That will come as they gain experience. Taking nothing away from the Colts who are a quality team, the first half is what I've always seen in this offense.

The weak point is Stafford's health. He's definitely a baller.

Why is Hoecht in coverage? They need a LB with Hampton's speed to play SAM not a 300 lb former DT. Morris would be better playing Lake at SAM if he's going to be expected to cover. Lake is 6'1" 200lbs with 4.5 speed and coverage skills. It makes no sense to play Hoecht in coverage. Durant doesn't have the agility and quickness to play SCB. Why isn't Morris playing Shelley who is a proven SCB?

Still way too much mis-communication in the secondary.

When this defense finally comes together it's going to be good, But they are still mixing and matching too much and it's causing a lot of miscommunication. I would like to see Lake and Shelly in the secondary from here on out.

CBs Kendrick, Witherspoon and Shelley with Lake and Yeast as their safeties. IMO that is their best combinations the scheme they are playing. I've been saying they should play Donald at edge opposite Young. Rotate Turner, Murchison and Brown inside. with Jones and Rozeboom at ILB.

The Rams play the Eagles, then AZ, and Steelers the next 3 weeks. IMO the Eagles are not an automatic loss. A lot depends on Stafford's health going into that game. Time to rest Stafford for the entire week with maybe one or two days of light practice. Let Rypien take the reps because he will need them if he has to play. That said I feel better about Rypien then I ever felt about Wolford. The Rams need better at #3QB than Rypien or Bennett. I'm not so sure how much the Rams can depend upon Bennett. Too much immature frat boy shit.

The best part of the game was how in the end the Colt fans had their hearts torn out. :laugh1: Give them hope then steal it away.

It would be ironic for Kupp to come back healthy just as Stafford has to sit. I have absolutely no faith in Rypien even with the amazing weapons he will have at hand. Not that he's to be trusted but, isn't Bennett eligible to come back this week too? Hoping and praying that its just a bruised hip and he'll be fine with rest.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned yet but a nice game from Van Jefferson. Made some crucial catches.
