Agree. The Rams will play a completely different Eagles team so need to bring it big time. We do not have the script of Philly coughing up 4 gift turnovers like the 49ers always get (see Cowboys 4 turnovers). The circumstances are pretty much same as Dallas -- they laid an egg against the 49ers and will regroup to play the Rams tough. Despite that, the Rams played well enough to beat Dallas and can beat the Eagles, too.Philly didn't do jack against the niners yesterday. Score was really misleading. Should of lost without it being close.
That said, I still think they are a very good team and a scary offense. So if we win in their house it's a big statement, I think.
Dallas loss still bites. No way we should of lost.Agree. The Rams will play a completely different Eagles team so need to bring it big time.

I'm not scared of the Eagles or 49ers this year. The team I fear the most is the Chargers. Man they look good.
Exactly what about us makes this so for that patchwork line of yours? If anything this is the perfect game for our DL to get on track.You guys are a confident 1-2 bunch. All things pointed to a Niners win yesterday, but don't expect to come to "our house" and get a victory. Rams are an excellent bounce back game for the Eagles to set things straight.

"Lights out" like that come from behind win, at home, against the Jags? Or that impressive performance against the skins? I have yet to see your team play a "lights out" game this season.I thought the patch work line would get exposed against the Niners, and it did. But, we're getting one starter back (the right tackle) which should help solidify everything. For virtually every POS game that the offense has had under CK, the next game the offense came back lights out.
Actually the Rams played well enough to LOSE to Dallas, last I checked....Agree. The Rams will play a completely different Eagles team so need to bring it big time.

Not sure yet who the starter will be, but I believe this is a game that will be dictated more by the D than the O and last night showed what an above average D does to Kelly's O, this year at least. You got into the playoffs last year, IMO, based on D's not having any tape and a very weak conference. And yes, I think our D is better than what you played last night.Tell me, is the Rams starting quarterback still Shaun Hill? Why would a back up journeyman have any expectation to beat a playoff team on the road? How is he going to put up at least the 28 points it will take to match the Eagles?
Kurt Warner on line 1 for you.Why would a back up journeyman have any expectation to beat a playoff team on the road? How is he going to put up at least the 28 points it will take to match the Eagles?
If we smack the Iggles around, I smell the possibility of still getting an 8-8 record.
If the defense actually shows up (and against the Iggles patchwork O-line, they'd better) maybe 9-7.
If the defense still hasn't improved...I will remain very worried about that unit.
I like confidence, but grounded in reality. What have you seen to date that makes you think the Rams D is better than the hated Whiners D?And yes, I think our D is better than what you played last night.
