Fun time over. This s*!t gets REAL now...

[SoCalRam78]

People saying the Rams schedule is soft? Go look at the Saints and Vikings. Literally played no one. Vikings best win was against the Saints at home and Packers sans ARod. Saints best win was at Carolina and at Packers, again without ARod.

Whole bunch of garbage otherwise.

Rams are better than Minnesota and the Saints, Philly is a different animal.

Lets see how we play against those teams that are in the upper tier. I think the iggles are going to the superbowl unless they face a team in the playoffs that has their number.

Doubt McVay will let this team sleep on the Texans. His method of preparation is excellent and hopefully sustainable; Fisher would've let us slept on the Texans only for it to be an ugly win or loss.

Just thinking about the next game, as I'm sure the Rams are.

HOU might have been a tough game had Watson not gone down.

I think we all saw what they are with Savage at the helm.

Similar to the NYG, the Rams ought to win this one... perhaps going away.

One thing I learned yesterday is that McVay and the veterans in the locker room will not let this team get complacent.

So, I expect them to win this one... they are, simply, a much more talented team.

It's been real for the past 8 weeks (9 including the bye.) Yeah there are some very tough games ahead, but it wasn't like everyone thought the first half of the season was going to be a piece of cake. This is the part of the season where the players need to take extremely good care of themselves, focus a bit harder, and not let the hype from the media/fans, go to their heads. This will be very hard thing for a majority of the team that has not experienced this type of success. As I've stated before, McVay and the rest of the coaching staff will keep these guys grounded because this game can humble them in a moments notice. If they keep beating the drum "One Game at a Time, and "We not Me," and we will be okay.

It's been an unbelievable ride watching the Rams go from middle school offense with no real chance of sustainable success to the team we're seeing today.

We have a trap game this week with a beat up (but decent) Texans team. After that, 4 of our last 7 games are against current division leaders (and the 5th is the Seahawks whom we just knocked out of first).

We will truly see what this team is made of in the back half of this season. I love that we now know they can rise up against teams we should beat (a Fisher no-no), now this stretch will show us if we have what it takes to beat the big guys with regularity.

Can't wait!

GO RAMS!!

Trap game smap game. We going to use this as a primer to get ready for the stretch. Not only that but we are at home which is has been forever since we been there! We’ll be ready to come out.

In fairness this argument always goes both ways. The Rams could have easily lost to the Whiners. In fact they were one great Barron tackle away from probably losing.

The 9ers have been basically one roll of the dice from being at least 4-3 and simply lost every roll. They're better than their record and are scrappy. Our division is gonna get tough again which is good because a tough division prepares well for the playoffs.

Tbh I’m more concerned about the attendance at home, can’t jeep having more opposing fans than Rams fans at the stadium

Sad thing is that they are majority So Cal. residents. Just band-wagoners that jumped ship long time ago. I think that will change though.

 

[Rabid Ram]

I’m worried about the Saints. I think we can easily lose that game. I predicted we would be 9-3 going into the Eagles game. Which is still great.

I belive the saints are a paper tiger tbh not to scared of them

 

[MTRamsFan]

Again with the :shooting: trap game? :fuelfire:

I'm getting tired of hearing this "Trap Game" stuff too!!

Yeah, I don't get that either. There is nothing telling me we are going to overlook them. If any game was going to be a "trap game" it could have been yesterday's game against the Giants, given their hot mess. No, this game will be treated no differently than our previous 8 games. You'll hear it all week long from coaches and players. "Yes, we respect the Texans. They are talented and well coached. In order to win we have to play hard, and limit mistakes, etc., etc., etc." I can't, for the life of me, think they overlook them for whatever reason, and is no way a trap game.

 

[Q729]

So we're good for 9 wins, right?

 

[bubbaramfan]

Fred Rogin was talking about Sunday's NFL TV viewership and the Rams got the highest here in LA. Three times more than the London game. Like they've been saying, Rams win and play exciting football and they will get butts in the seats and tuning in on TV.

No more baseball and getting to cold to go to the beach and with the Rams winning I expect the coliseum to be packed the next few home games.

I got 50,000 ROD bucks that says Dec. 10 Eagles vs Rams is a sellout. Any takers?

 

[fanotodd]

So we're good for 9 wins, right?

I think that should be the minimum. Based on how the Rams have been playing, they should be favored to win vs the texans, cards, and 9ers.

I'm seeing at least 11 (vikes, saints?), but it won't matter if we get swept by the seahawks. We'll only be a wild card.

 

[bwdenverram]

Schedule gets tough for sure but if we can't beat these teams then we aren't as good as our record. I know this, our two losses were to very good teams and because we handed it to them with T/O's. This team , IMO, can beat anyone. Next few weeks we get our chance to prove it.

I will bet 20K. I am sure this will be in the bookies.

 

[bubbaramfan]

Yer on Steezy. Send flv a PM, I will do the same.:boxing::yess:

 

[Prime Time]

Be at peace fellow Rams fanatics. While you were sleeping, Sean McVay and his crew were drawing up new plays to run circles around opposing defenses.

 

[Montanaramfan]

I'm not worried about any trap game this weekend. McVay has a way of letting the team know that you have to respect your opponent, no matter who they are, and knows that anyone can beat anyone in this league. Contrast that with Fisher who would have been smirking at the camera after the Giants game and asking reporters, "How'd you like that?" Then we'd follow that game up with a loss vs the Texans.

 

[LACHAMP46]

Dallas and Jacksonville were real wins....rather, wins against very good teams.
