OldSchool I think the below tweet has something to do with it.
The ST phase does not take a back seat in Ramsville.
One more reason to like Mcvay,a lot of HC's would have been too paranoid to
keep on a coach from the previous regime,especially one who was the interim HC.

All I care about is that at the end of the game, we're healthy and we have more points than they do.

If the offense craps the bed and the defense scores 3 TDs and the ST scores 2 TDs and we win 35-21, I won't really care.

As Herm Edwards pointed out, "you play to win the game".

Part of the point of having a top ST unit is that they not only shut down the other team's ST unit, but they put more pressure on the opposing Offense and Defense by adding points.

I don't think that'll happen. On the contrary, I think both teams will struggle in the first half and we'll make better adjustments and pull away in the third quarter. And I think special teams will be the difference maker for us in a very positive way.

I remember when I was a kid back in the 70's, the Rams STs hurt them in some big games. Tom Dempsey sucked in big spots and also had a kick blocked in 76' Divisional game against the Vikes. I think they were down 17- 13 early 4th, they line up for a FG and the Vikes blocked it, returned it for a TD.... 24-13, ball game.

Anyway, sorry for that flashback..... So its nice to have great STs heading down the stretch this year like they did in 99'.

Actually I stand corrected... just found that game on YouTube. The blocked FG was in the 1st half... they also had a punt blocked in the 1st half. God their STs were bad.

I was only 9 yrs old, but I remember that....

So disappointing watching this. Rams had 4 1st half turnovers despite outgaining the Vikes by over a hundred years and dominating time of possession yet trailed 10-0 at half.

Too bad they did not have a dome back then. Those teams that had guys that were lifer players, no FA, i think made it tougher for warm weather teams to ein in cold climate games.

As a comparison this year are starting WRs played in Buffalo the last 4 years.
