Idk… maybe couldn’t because knucklehead LT got suspended and they were dumb and didn’t invest in a quality backup either in FA or draft.

Don't say that out loud though because then you'll be questioned about who we should have drafted instead lol

Yes because the Rams simply aren’t good enough to blow teams out.

But how is that an excuse for the officiating crew to F them over in crucial moments that determine a win or a loss? I’m not understanding the correlation.

I think the refs are sending a message to McVay for telling the press that the league office admitted the refs fucked up in PI call in Denver.

Allen had the take off of a sloth when he was handed the ball. Horrible.

How does someone standing there minding his own business get called for an unnecessary roughness call? He didn't move at all. Plus his shoulder barely grazed the helmet.

I talked to AI just a moment ago and asked a question. Here's the answer:

No team in NFL history has ever started a season 2–4 (or worse) and gone on to win the Super Bowl.

The worst records that a eventual Super Bowl champion has had through the early portion of the regular season include:

  • 1–2 start: 1981 San Francisco 49ers, 2018 New England Patriots
  • 1–3 start: 2001 New England Patriots
  • 0–2 start: 1993 Dallas Cowboys, 2001 New England Patriots, and 2007 New York Giants

The penalty at the end didn't help, but, we jump offsides on the first play and give Brisset a free shot down the field. Defense needs to end the game and they just couldn't

defense was at least solid... but by no means great - they let the cardinals hold the ball the entire 3rd Q and then imploded at the end.

The offense does indeed deserver more of the blame today though....

I actually think the team makes the playoffs but we’ll be on the road in Carolina or Chicago or SF. Gonna be a hell of an uphill climb.

Man, I just don't see it after this start 2-4 and from what we've seen. If we'd won today I would put our chances at 60/40, after today, i'd put us at 25/75. We are a third of the way through the season. Going to have to finish prob 9-2, maybe 8-3. We just lost to the Cardinals.

Trash, trash, trash! Now we have to run a version of a two minute drill for the rest of the season to run the rack and maybe sniff the playoffs. I cringe at the possible injury to Devante and the non contact calf area issue he suffered. At best, we won't make the playoffs and be crowned the most dangerous team not to make the playoffs.

I guess I do wonder if this season will finally burn out McVay.

I'm less concerned about McVay being burned out than I am about the possibility that he's lost his edge.

The first concerning thing I noticed weeks ago was the overall lack of discipline this team has. They used to be the least penalized team. Now, they never fail to get a penalty at a critical time. Something is wrong with McVay.

As bad as the offense played, they gave us a shot to win. But you kick to the endzone and give them good starting position, first play offsides, give up a big, free pass play and get called for a lame pentalty. All of which is just a microcosm of the entire game and year thus far. Sometimes I just don't understand the decision making my McVay anymore. Make them run it out and run time off the clock. Don't fucking give them a free freaking play. Jesus can we get every bad break possible??
2-4 and 3 losses by a total of 9 points.

Still think they can turn it around but it starts with Sean. Pull your head out of your ass man. Be better for 4 quarters. Not just 10 minutes here and there.

I thought Josiah Stewart would take a step forward this year. Instead, forced to start due to Garrett's injury, he's been absolute ass. And he was unsurprisingly the player who jumped there. Garrett needs to get his ass back on the field.

Idk that seems a bit too conspiratorial for me. I think it comes down to the fact that the league itself looks at bad officiating as part of the entertainment package.

The controversy over awful calls makes for good publicity and clicks.

This mess could easily be sorted out but as another poster said it seems they truly do not care to.

So as a fan you don’t just have to in crucial moments you aren’t just worrying about the big tip catch or crucial turnover…you’re on the edge of your seat hoping the refs to don’t eff you over too..I truly believe the people in charge at the NFL want/allow these moments to happen.
