October 8, 2014 at 2:53 pm #9347RamBillParticipantZac Stacy’s calf injury not serious
By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12427/zac-stacys-calf-injury-not-serious
EARTH CITY, Mo. — After coughing up a costly fumble in the second half of the St. Louis Rams’ loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, running back Zac Stacy did not return to the game.
Many quickly assumed Stacy had been benched for his miscue but there was a press box announcement soon after declaring Stacy’s return doubtful because of a calf injury. Upon further inspection, it sounds like the injury wasn’t serious enough to keep Stacy from missing more game time.
“It looks like he may miss some practice time this week,” coach Jeff Fisher said. “But, I think, preliminary evaluation is it doesn’t look like he’s going to miss the game. But, we’ll see.”
Stacy had 11 carries for 42 yards and four catches for 36 yards against the Eagles before departing, though his role in the offense has already reduced to more of a timeshare with fellow running back Benny Cunningham. Cunningham got most of the work in Stacy’s place and figures to continue to get plenty of opportunities moving forward after providing solid production against the Eagles.
Cunningham finished with a touchdown and 47 yards on seven carries and three catches for 24 yards against Philadelphia. He also handled kick return duties with Chris Givens declared a pregame inactive.
“Benny was solid,” Fisher said. “He didn’t get much help from his teammates on kickoff return but he did a nice job of fielding the ball and hitting it up in there. Offensively, I though he played well without the ball, as Zac did. Unfortunately Zac put one on the ground but I thought both the backs ran fairly well.”
Even if Stacy is able to play Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers, it’s probably safe to assume that Cunningham will continue to share most of the work with rookie Trey Watts also stealing a few carries here and there.

October 9, 2014 at 5:09 pm #9381RamBillParticipantRams need more from special teams
By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12466/rams-need-more-from-special-teams
EARTH CITY, Mo. — All things considered, the St. Louis Rams had an opportunity to beat the Philadelphia Eagles last week in the closing moments.
They had the ball with enough time to put together a game-winning drive but came up short when quarterback Austin Davis’ fourth down pass to receiver Brian Quick fell incomplete. That they were even in that position was testament to an offense that finally got going in the second half and a defense which mostly held up against the Eagles’ uptempo approach.
The 34-28 loss was a total team defeat with everyone playing their part, but one phase that didn’t provide much help was the special teams.
“The things that happened in the ball game on the offensive side of the ball were difficult to overcome,” coach Jeff Fisher said. “Some of the things that happened on the defensive side of the ball were difficult to overcome. You can overcome them if you get production and plays and break even on special teams. [On Sunday], we did not, and so we’re disappointed in the special teams production. I think that’s the first time I’ve stood up here and said that.”
Indeed, of the many problems the Rams have had in their two years under Fisher, special teams would rarely rank near the top aside from a spate of penalties in the first part of the 2013 season. This is mostly the same personnel that last season finished third in the league in total points expected added by special teams (33.11), a formula that calculates total special teams production and offers a number on what that production translates to in points scored. It’s also the same group that set an NFL record for net punting behind the leg of punter Johnny Hekker.
Which is why the lack of production to this point in the season has been something of a surprise. Fisher was only discussing the Eagles game when talking about the special teams struggles but there have been other alarming trends in the early part of the season from that unit.
Through four games, the Rams are 30th in punt return average (3.4 yards per attempt), 23rd in punt coverage (allowing 9.7 yards per attempt), 19th in kickoff return (22.7 yards) and 24th in kickoff coverage (25.3 yards).
T.J. McDonald’s big performance in the win against Tampa Bay, in which he blocked a punt and a field goal, only serves to further Fisher’s point. When the Rams make plays on special teams, they have more success. When they don’t, it can be the difference in the game.
No play was bigger in the outcome of the loss to Philadelphia than the blocked punt that took place on the Rams’ fourth play from scrimmage. It was the first blocked punt in Hekker’s 173 tries as a professional, but it was a big one. James Casey got to the kick and Chris Maragos recovered it for a touchdown and a quick 7-0 lead. On a day when the Rams lost by six, it’s not hard to do that math.
“It started with the punt, and there was a number of other things that happened,” Fisher said. “But, fourth play of the game and you give up a touchdown on the road, those things are hard to overcome.”
More familiar to Rams fans was seeing their team earn more flags on special teams. Linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong, who has since been released, cost the Rams 15 yards with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and Chase Reynolds chopped another 10 yards of field position off for an illegal block in the back. The Eagles managed 10 points on drives after those two errors, another easy calculation when it comes to the final score.
“We’re going to get it fixed and corrected and move on,” Fisher said. “We’ve got too talented of a group. They’re taking responsibility for it. It’s not blame, it’s just take responsibility for it and learn and move on.”
The Rams special teams did that a year ago after the early onslaught of penalties. But the sooner they can do it this year, the better for a team that needs help from all phases to find victories.

The Niners have had 38 explosive plays and have allowed only 17, making them +21. That’s #1 in the NFL. The Rams are -2 in explosive play differential. An explosive play is a run of 10+ yards or a pass of 20+ yards.

October 10, 2014 at 5:25 pm #9430RamBillParticipantRams show respect for Justin Smith
By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12498/rams-show-respect-for-justin-smith
EARTH CITY, Mo. — Asked by a group of St. Louis reporters Thursday afternoon when he planned to retire, San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Justin Smith offered a simple response befitting one of the game’s best but most simplistic players.
“I’m week to week,” Smith said.
The week-to-week approach has served Smith well in his 13-plus seasons in the NFL. He is widely regarded as one of the game’s strongest and toughest defensive linemen, earning five Pro Bowl nods and two All-Pro selections.
At 35, Smith doesn’t seem to be slowing down much, if at all. He has 16 tackles, three sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in the first five games this season, and has helped keep the 49ers near the top of the defensive rankings despite the notable absences of linebackers Aldon Smith and NaVorro Bowman.
“He’s just the same every single year,” Rams coach Jeff Fisher said. “He appears to be very healthy right now. He’s playing a lot of snaps and he’s playing hard. He’s an emotional player and kind of referred to (running back Frank) Gore as kind of their nerve center of their football team on offense. Everything’s built around them. And you can make a case that Justin is the guy there on defense.”
Smith’s workmanlike career has been the envy of many players around the league. Rams defensive end Chris Long this year cited Smith as an example of the type of career he’d like to have when Long suffered the ankle injury that ended his consecutive games streak. And to a man, the Rams’ offense is well aware they better be prepared for a physical, brutal battle whenever Smith is on the other side.
Even Niners coach Jim Harbaugh, who rarely is willing to offer much beyond surface-level description, lights up at the mention of Smith and offers a little humor in describing his defensive fulcrum.
“Everybody respects Justin,” Harbaugh said. “He is a ‘football player.’ That’s everything that you could possibly say good about a football player and a person, that is Justin Smith, a stalwart. A man everybody truly respects. Chuck Norris calls Justin Smith, ‘sir.'”
Smith has had his share of game-wrecking performances against the Rams. In 2009, he set a personal best in sacks with three and a half, and he had eight tackles and another sack in a 2012 meeting against the Rams. That doesn’t include the down-to-down impact Smith brings when taking on multiple blockers and allowing his linebackers to run free to the ball.
That is why Fisher wouldn’t mind it one bit if Smith decided his week-to-week plan would come to an end sometime around Saturday or Sunday.
“Yeah, if you can talk him into retiring this weekend that would be great,” Fisher said, laughing. “I’ll go to his retirement party.”

October 13, 2014 at 1:02 am #9521znModeratorRams-49ers: Matchup breakdown
By Nick Wagoner
http://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12513/rams-49ers-matchup-breakdown-2
EARTH CITY, Mo. — A look at three individual matchups to keep an eye on when the St. Louis Rams and San Francisco 49ers meet at 8:30 p.m. ET Monday night on ESPN.
Rams linebacker James Laurinaitis vs. Niners running back Frank Gore
Like clockwork, San Francisco running back Frank Gore has been the centerpiece of the offense almost since he arrived in the league back in 2005 and certainly since his second season in 2006. Gore’s physical, powerful running style has made life difficult for the Rams in the time since, and has allowed Gore to have as much or more success against St. Louis than any other team. Gore has 14 rushing touchdowns against the Rams, the most of any player in NFL history. In 14 meetings, he has rushed for 1,149 yards and those touchdowns on 254 carries with five 100-yard outings. In the teams’ last meeting in St. Louis, Gore had 20 carries for 153 yards and a touchdown.
The Rams’ defense, meanwhile, has struggled to stop the run, sitting 29th in the league in that category by allowing 152.5 yards per game and 28th in the league at 4.82 yards per rush allowed. Laurinaitis isn’t the only one tasked with slowing Gore, but much of the responsibility falls on the middle linebacker in terms of having everyone lined up correctly and not allowing for mental mistakes like a blown gap responsibility. Laurinaitis said this week that he feels like he could not watch much tape and know exactly what the Niners are going to do. That might be the case, but knowing and doing are two very different things.
Rams right tackle Joe Barksdale vs. 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks
Barksdale has been a pleasant surprise in the Rams’ lineup since he became a full-time starter a year ago, but Brooks is one player who has proved a nightmare — not just for the Barksdale but the Rams as a whole. Without the services of Aldon Smith and NaVorro Bowman, the 49ers have leaned on others to pick up the slack, but Brooks hasn’t necessarily been able to do that as one would expect. In the Thursday night meeting in St. Louis a year ago, Brooks had a sack and a half and led the team with nine tackles on his way to his best season. Brooks has been relatively quiet so far this season with nine tackles and a sack, but he’s getting pressure with three hits and nine pressures. There are other 49ers capable of generating pressure, especially defensive lineman Justin Smith, but neutralizing Brooks is a good place to start.
Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins vs. 49ers wide receiver Anquan Boldin
Despite numerous offseason additions and the return of a healthy Michael Crabtree, it’s Boldin who is still the 49ers’ most productive receiver with his 25 catches and 303 yards. Much like Gore, Boldin has made a career of tormenting the Rams. In 15 games against the Rams, Boldin has 97 receptions for 1,326 yards and seven touchdowns, including six 100-yard games.
Given the other options in the passing game, it’s unlikely Jenkins will shadow Boldin as he did Dallas’ Dez Bryant earlier this season, but the two will likely see plenty of each other as they did a year ago. In the 2013 game in San Francisco, Jenkins repeatedly tussled with Boldin, who had nine catches for 98 yards and got Jenkins off his game with his physical style and willingness to engage in trash talk. There is no love lost between these two, but the Rams need more from Jenkins in order to keep Boldin and the 49ers in check.
October 13, 2014 at 1:03 am #9522znModeratorW2W4: St. Louis Rams
by Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12505/w2w4-st-louis-rams-9
EARTH CITY, Mo. — The St. Louis Rams and San Francisco 49ers cap Week 6 on Monday night at the Edward Jones Dome. Kickoff is set for 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
Here are three things to watch from the Rams’ perspective:
1. Penalty persistence: Under coach Jeff Fisher, the Rams have been the most penalized team in the league during the past two seasons, a trend that has continued to some extent this season as they rank 30th in the league in penalties per game entering Week 6. Fisher finally took some action to slow the penalty issues this week, releasing linebacker Ray Ray Armstrong in part for his continued mental errors. Fisher has been especially upset with the flags his team draws before and after the whistle, things such as false starts, offside and unsportsmanlike conduct. With a small margin for error against a team like San Francisco, every flag makes a difference because every yard counts on both sides of the ball. Making matters more interesting has been San Francisco’s penchant for flags. The Niners’ 48 penalties is the second-most in the league. If the Rams can cut down on their mistakes and the Niners continue to have issues, it would go a long way toward a victory.
2. Communication is key: Speaking of consistent mental breakdowns, the Rams have a bad habit of committing the types of defensive miscues that translate into big plays for the offense. Against Dallas, a coverage breakdown led to Dez Bryant’s 68-yard touchdown and a similar error led to Philadelphia’s Jeremy Maclin being wide open for a 24-yard score last week. The Rams lost both games by one possession, a possession that might have gone their way were it not for those errors. The Rams defense has been disappointing in the first quarter of the season because it’s had a series of successful plays wiped out by five or six big plays. The Niners will likely get a big play or two along the way, but the Rams simply can’t afford to allow the five or six they’ve been giving up in recent weeks.
3. Bringing down Kaepernick: The Rams have just one sack through the first four weeks, a statistic that will continue to draw a lot of attention until its remedied. But if ever there was a chance for the defense to right the ship, this could be it. Niners quarterback Colin Kaepernick has been sacked 13 times this season, fourth-most in the league. Some of that has been a product of an offensive line that’s dealt with injuries and some of it is on Kaepernick’s knack for abandoning the pocket too quickly and running into sacks. The Rams have blitzed (by percentage) more than any team in the league, but that’s not the way to handle Kaepernick, who had a big performance against the blitz last week when he went 6-of-10 passing for 129 yards against Kansas City, with all of his completions against the blitz gaining first downs. That means it’s time to get back to basics for the Rams by relying on their front four to push the pocket. More work for defensive tackle Aaron Donald would be helpful as well.
October 13, 2014 at 1:13 am #9524RamBillParticipantAre the Rams ready for prime time?
• By Jim ThomasThe Rams don’t get much prime-time exposure, so there was only one way to go in preparation for their “Monday Night Football” appearance against San Francisco.
To the barber shop.
“Oh you gotta be fresh,” safety T.J. McDonald said. “You know you’re gonna get some TV time. The Colgate’s out, nice white teeth. Nice haircut.”
Offensive guard Rodger Saffold agreed.
“Fresh haircut,” Saffold said. “I’m not gonna say what I’m gonna wear just yet.”
Presumably, he was talking about what he’s wearing to the game, because we know he’ll be wearing a Rams uniform on the field.
“I’m trying to look real good,” Saffold added. “You’ve gotta look good on and off the field, and I just can’t wait to play.”
The Rams played the 49ers as well as anyone in the NFL in 2012, Jeff Fisher’s first year here as coach, with an overtime tie in San Francisco and an overtime victory at the Edward Jones Dome.
Things didn’t go so well last season, however, with an embarrassing 35-11 Thursday night loss in Game 4 in St. Louis followed by a 23-13 setback in Game 12 in San Francisco.
The 2014 Rams come into Monday night’s 7:30 p.m. matchup with a variety of perspectives from that last meeting in the Dome — the Thursday night humiliation.
Quarterback Austin Davis was somewhere between the Miami Dolphins’ practice squad and volunteer coaching at Westminster Christian Academy in suburban St. Louis at the time.
Did he watch it on TV?
“Nope,” Davis replied. “I don’t remember it.”
Probably a good thing given the nature of the bludgeoning, right?
Davis just smiled and let that one go.
A brief refresher course: The Rams were outgained 219 yards rushing to 18. San Francisco running back Frank Gore rushed for 153 yards, including a 34-yard touchdown on a fourth-and-1 play in the first half. In one of the worst performances of his career, quarterback Sam Bradford was battered, completing only 19 of 41 passes. And 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman, who won’t play tonight, was all but unblockable. He spent so much time in the St. Louis backfield, he might as well have put on a Rams jersey.
The normally unflappable Fisher was so upset by the loss, he made a brief statement at his postgame news conference, took two questions, then abruptly walked off.
It was insult and injury for safety T.J. McDonald, then a rookie, who suffered a fractured leg in the contest that would sideline him for two months.
“It could have been a sour taste if you want to call it that — the first (San Francisco) game or the second game,” McDonald said. “For us, I can’t say we look back at last season. Our goal is to win the game, no matter who we’re playing, what week it is, what happened last year or last week. We want to win this game.”
All but the newest Rams are very familiar with what it’ll take to topple the Niners. It’s a script that hasn’t changed much over the past few seasons. On defense, it’s all about containing Gore and keeping quarterback Colin Kaepernick in the pocket. On offense, it’s finding a way to run the football against that rock otherwise known as the 49ers’ front seven.
One last thing. As much as anything, if the Rams can’t hold their own in the trenches against the 49ers on both sides of the ball it will be another long, embarrassing night.
That’s it. Pretty basic, really. Playing the 49ers is not for the meek or half-hearted.
“We know these guys really well,” linebacker James Laurinaitis said during the practice week. “Quite frankly, I could go without watching film this week and know what San Fran’s gonna do. There’s a few different things in there, but when you watch film. you’re like, ‘Gosh, I’ve seen that story before.’ And they know us.”
So it’s as much a battle of will and execution as anything else. And make no mistake, regardless of all the reports and gossip about how the 49ers don’t want to play for Jim Harbaugh, or how Harbaugh and general manager Trent Baalke don’t get along, this is a team that plays with moxie, plays with toughness and is very resilient.
When asked during a conference call if the rumors were a distraction, Harbaugh replied: “No, that just seems like warmed up oatmeal to me.”
Apparently, the 49ers’ coach prefers his oatmeal cold.
As for the 49ers (3-2), they’re warming up after a sluggish start by their standards, defeating playoff contenders Philadelphia and Kansas City over the past two Sundays.
“It’s the same 49er team,” Fisher said. “They’re very, very good. They had a couple issues early on, but they’ve come back. … We’ve had some interesting games against them here in just a couple years. We have to play, obviously, our best football.”
If the Rams are serious about making this a breakout season, it’s time to start winning. Tough schedule or not, if you want to start running with the big dogs, you have to start beating them.
“I think we need to show how far we’ve come,” Davis said. “Our record (1-3) is not what we want it to be, let’s not make any bones about it. But I think we’re better than that, and we need to show it.”
Well, this is the Show-Me State. Show us.
To do that, the Rams must minimize mistakes, cut down on penalties and make the 49ers earn whatever they get. No freebies on busted coverages, botched punt protection, or sack-fumbles allowed on the goal line.
“When you’re a great football team and a winning football team, you don’t say there’s five or six (bad) plays,” Laurinaitis said. “You say: ‘There’s one, there’s two, and we survived them.’ “
The sooner the Rams can get into survival mode, the better.
“We’re improving each and every week,” an upbeat defensive coordinator Gregg Williams said Saturday.
Again, show us.
October 13, 2014 at 1:46 am #9525RamBillParticipantRams-49ers: 7 for Monday
• By Jim ThomasLIMITING GORE IS FIRST OBJECTIVE
Even if the Rams stop Frank Gore, there’s no guarantee the Rams can upset the 49ers. But it would sure help. The 10-year vet is proving there’s life after 30 for NFL running backs. Gore, 31, comes to St. Louis ranked fifth in the league with 365 rushing yards, and for the first time since the middle of 2011 he’s coming off back-to-back 100-yard rushing games. After all these years, the Rams know what to expect from Gore. He does his best work between the tackles but can still bounce it outside. Gore always runs with intensity, and with his compact frame (5-9, 217) and low center of gravity, doesn’t give defenders much to tackle. He almost always enjoys seeing the Rams, with 1,149 yards rushing and 14 rushing TDs in 14 games against St. Louis. That’s the most rushing TDs he’s scored against anyone in his career.
CHASING COLIN
QB Colin Kaepernick still makes head-scratching decisions on occasion, but his arm strength and running ability can be a dazzling combination for the 49ers. Kaepernick is more accurate this season (64.7 percent) than he’s ever been, is throwing more over the middle, and has been more patient going through his progressions. His 205 yards rushing would lead seven NFL teams. He has yet to throw an interception against the Rams, encompassing 100 passes.
RECEIVING OPTIONS
Anquan Boldin and Michael Crabtree remain the main men at WR for the 49ers, with 25 catches apiece this season. But newly acquired veterans Stevie Johnson and one-time Ram Brandon Lloyd give opposing defenses more to contend with. All four have had at least one 1,000-yard season, and all have good size. (Lloyd is the “shrimp” of the bunch at 6-0, 200.) Their size, savvy and experience will be a huge test for a young St. Louis secondary searching for consistency.
UP FRONT
Fitting the physical nature of the entire San Francisco squad, the 49ers’ offensive line will bloody your nose. A Rams defensive line that has had trouble both stopping the run and getting to the QB needs to step up its game or it will be a long night; rookie DT Aaron Donald is expected to have a bigger role for the Rams tonight, so we’ll see if that helps. The 49ers’ strength is on the left side, where LT Joe Staley and LG Mike Iupati have five Pro Bowls between them.
RAISING THEIR GAME
There’s no doubt the 49ers miss elite pass-rusher Aldon Smith, the University of Missouri product who’s in the midst of a nine-game NFL suspension. The other half of the Smith Bros., Mizzou’s Justin Smith, is doing his part with three sacks and 19 QB pressures — both team highs — and will undoubtedly test the interior of the Rams’ line. Rookie OLB Aaron Lynch is getting only about 20 snaps a game in the nickel package but is second on the team in QB pressures (14).
ON THE BACK END
Seven of the 10 members of the 49ers’ secondary are in their first or second years with the club.
The names may change, but the production always seems to continue. At cornerback, Tramaine Cox (toe) will miss his fourth consecutive game tonight. But veteran Perrish Cox, who’s in his second stint with the team, has starred in his place. Cox has three interceptions, 10 pass breakups and two fumble recoveries. He’s produced a victory-clinching interception in San Francisco’s last two games.
ROOM TO RUN?
After missing 1½ games with a knee injury, Tavon Austin had a somewhat limited role last week in Philadelphia. But it looks like he’s full speed, so the 49ers’ leaky punt coverage unit could give him a chance to get going tonight. The Niners rank 31st in punt coverage in the NFL, allowing 14.8 yards a return; Philly’s Darren Sproles went 82 yards for a TD against them two weeks ago. Austin is averaging only 3.8 yards on his eight returns this season, with a long of 19 yards.
