Playoff chances of 2-1 teams: Titans look good, Rams in trouble

[OldSchool]

Rams have beaten two teams with a combine record of 1-5 so I get it and if I were not a Ram fan I would doubt them too, if however, they can upset the Cowboys in Arlington, it will be a statement game and follow that up with a win next week at home against Seattle and many of us will be partying like it's 1999.

While the Rams victims are 1-5 it's true guess what the Cowpokes have defeated. Yup that same 1-5 record an 0-3 Giants and a 1-2 Tards. Neither of the teams they've beaten so far have proven themselves to be worth a damn this year.

So far... and it's early... I don't know who is who in any division.

Yes, KC looks good. So does Atlanta. But, are these going to be dominant teams? Maybe. Maybe not.

Parity feels stronger than ever this year. I don't see a dominant team yet. KC and ATL are early favourites, but I'm not sold on anything just yet.

No doubt. Andy Reid teams always kill it during the season, and/or peak too soon only to choke in the playoffs. Atlanta didn't have enough defense to win last year (came about as close as you can with a defense that gave up 25ppg), remains to be seen if they're improved enough to do so this year.

Remember the Rams last year at 3-1 to include the win over the Shehawks? Pretenders get exposed around week 6 when the league gets serious for playoff push. Everyone's making a lot of assumptions like usual and it's mostly due to media hype and whatnot, but we're going to have to wait and see what this team looks like around the half way point to know if they're as good as we hope they are.

The bias is from last year's playoff season in Dallas, and rightly so tbh.

I think the Rams might be the better team, hope they are, but I fully understand everyone taking Dallas.

My heart wants me to say go freak yourself, but my brain says until we prove otherwise not much we can say.

We're going to have to go 7-1 or 6-2 in our first 8 games to finally make the media members respect us. We just have to accept that.

We are flying up the boards. When we beat the women abusers, we will probably jump ahead a couple more spots, but if we were to lose, we'd drop 6 - 10 spots.

Bad news- our D has been given up yards by the bushel.

Good news- our offense has been scoring in bundles

May the bundles beat the bushels

Go Rams Go

Man fuck Seattle. I hate their stupid coach. I hate their blowhard cornerback. I hate their... eh it's actually kind of hard to hate on Russel Wilson if I'm being honest. Oh yeah, Michael Bennet. He's an ass, too.

It's not hard for me to hate on Wilson. That little pain in the arse is like some insect buzzing around out there with his little cheerleader coach dancing around on the sideline.

Yeah, but he's kind of a great dude with everything he does with the children's hospitals and being a good role model for young athletes.. totally doesn't fit on that team. They should trade him to a team in the AFC.
