our reactions to the Seattle game

rams still look not in peak form.

but they pull out a win.

Everyone unit played okay. Except Hekker and the punt unit, they played well.

Stafford missed some open receivers. Finger problem maybe or are they just not in sync yet and his hit rate with the WRs will climb the more they play together.

I like Michel as a blocker. That was a good trade.

The Rams played well enough to win, in Seattle, so…yay.

I don’t understand Stafford’s inaccuracy, unless he is hurt. Not sure when the finger thing happened.

I reaaaalllly don’t understand putting rookie Rochelle on Metcalf when Ramsey is available. I know there is Lockett, too, but there is Williams, too. I just don’t understand that.

I didn’t catch all the blather from Buck and Aikman, but it didn’t seem like they had an explanation for the double punt play. I’ve never seen anything like it, and even if it’s legal to kick it twice, he appeared to me to be past the LOS on the second kick. And I think there was a flag, but it was not explained, and the play stood. I missed that ruling.

Geno Davis looked good. Why isn’t he starting somewhere?

Those Seattle uniforms are far and away the most hideous uniforms in all of sports. I can’t even wrap my head around the fact that they got off the drawing board.

they said the exact same thing you did. the guy was past the line of scrimmage. the refs screwed that one up. had he not been past the line of scrimmage it would have been a good play.

As Sean McVay explained postgame,”because he kicked it behind the line of scrimmage (and) they reviewed it in New York, they said his foot was still on the line of scrimmage — so they said he can do that. I guess you learn something every night.”

I watched it again. Looks like his planted foot was on the line of scrimmage.

A blocked punt turned into a 68-yard punt.

I think it’s fair to say that I will not live to see the likes of that play ever repeated.

Only saw the hi-lites so far, but my reaction is — I’m thrilled.

I have zero problems with a Road win against a division rival.

Once when i was a kid, I was playing in a football game, and
i punted the ball into the butt of the guy in front of me.
Ball bounced back to me, and i punted it again.

Punted it into the butt of the guy in front of me
a second time.

All perfectly legal.

Would have done it a third time, if i hadnt dropped the
ball.
