Rams win cause of Wentz running and Morris adjusting the coverages at the half.

I like them beating SF, but it was the 2s, doesn’t really count. Not entirely.

Which is fine. 10 win season.

I’m unclear about how the rest of you feel about the Niners but I can’t stand them. So my reaction is one of pure joy. To see Johnson and Turner pressure Darnold into that final turnover was a thing of beauty. Long live the young guys. There has to be some unsigned kicker who can hit extra points. Sam Ficken? Somebody. Good performance by Wentz. Clutch moments by Yeast in the 4th quarter. Maybe a little lucky, but clutch nonetheless. Ten wins? Holy shit. I’m glad this isn’t a board where people bring up past predictions and hold them against you. Bring on the playoffs.

i know yeast was in on that pass break up on the last drive. i’m guessing he was also the one who broke up the pass on the previous drive? those were two timely plays for sure. maybe a little luck but liked to see it. wentz played well too. and congrats to puka.

Yes, Yeast broke up both of those passes. Guarantee the guy will get a game ball in the locker room. Great plays.

I feel good about it. Yes, it was the 2s, but as the 9ers just carved them up in the first half, my hatred for the 9ers flared up. I’m sick of losing to the 9ers. Sick of it. I don’t care how meaningless of a game it is, I’m sick of it.

And the game isn’t meaningless because Detroit is going to be an easier pathway to meeting SF again in 2 weeks than Dallas would be. And Detroit lost their stud TE and St. Brown has rib issues, and one other WR got knocked out.

Wentz threw some terrible passes, and I don’t know if it’s because he hasn’t played, or if that’s just a Wentz thing, but he also nailed some throws.

And Puca Nacua needs to win ROY. I don’t care about Stroud’s good year, and the fact that he’s a QB. Nacua just had the greatest season ever by a rookie at his position, and broke a 63-year old record, and that deserves the ROY or nothing does. C’mon.

Man, Wentz wanted it. I’m glad.

10-7.

Rams go to Detroit well-rested. Interesting.

Rams kept battling… and won at Levi…. It’s been five years…

As noted, big plays by Yeast…

Wentz literally “carried” the Rams with his legs.. with some very nice passes thrown in.

RAMS WIN … BANG BANG!

It’s not really Levi.

It’s SoFi North.

Always great when the Rams beat the Niners. 🙂

Our backups are as good as their backups.

Congrats to Puka!

maybe i’m a homer, but i would have to agree with you.

nacua has had arguably the greatest season ever by a rookie wr. broke two of the three major statistical categories for a wr. cj stroud? very good. but not historic. not the most passing yards (3rd most ever). not the most passing tds (6th). not the highest passer rating (3rd). so good. but not historical. so i think it should be nacua.

another thing i was thinking. i hope lafleur can stay here for awhile. i don’t see any buzz surrounding him regarding a hc gig so i think he’s good for at least one more year. but i hope he can stay for at least another year after that. his stint with the jets and lack of play calling duties with the rams may just help the team keep him.
