October 16, 2018 at 6:09 pm in reply to: anyone watching MNF? That's the Rams next 2 opponents #92441
canadaramParticipantBoth offenses looked good. Of course NFL offenses have looked really good in many games this year, or at least it seems that way to me. I hope the short week works against San Francisco because their offense looks like it has multiple threats where the Rams defense has looked vulnerable at times this year. Goodwin and Beathard looked unstoppable in the first half and the Niners running game looked formidable as well.
I’m really not looking forward to seeing Aaron Rodgers coming off of a bye either.
canadaramParticipantConsecutive road wins in less than ideal weather, in two notoriously difficult places for visiting teams to play. I love it. The sacks werent great , but I’m not surprised that speed rushers would give the Rams’ line problems. I could see the Niners front getting to Goff next week as well. Anyway, 6-0!? Wow! Between 2007 and 2016 seven wins was the ceiling. So to have 6 wins in October has me pretty pleased.
Fingers crossed that Saffold and Kupp don’t have lingering issues. Okoronkwo is eligible to practice this week and while I doubt he’s a difference maker the rest of the season it wiuld be nice to see him in for some passing downs. I would think that Zuerlein is close to returning as well.
canadaramParticipantThe Rams are going to lose at some point. Denver is usually a tough road game. Keemun played well vs this defense less than one year ago. It is going to be cold. If the Rams win it will be a similar situation to the Seattle game, but not quite the high scoring affair. I expect the struggles against the run to continue.

canadaramParticipantAnother solid 4th quarter from the Rams defense. I’d like to see them pull that off for four quarters against a good offense, but I’m very happy about the win in what I expected to be a close game. Wilson had too much time for three quarters, and the way he moves around it is difficult for a DB to stay with his man for that long. That said Peters was disappointing for sure. I totally expected Goff to regress this year, super happy to be incorrect so far. That was an unfortunate bounce on his first INT. Perhaps it’s a slightly different game if the Rams score there? Anyway, I’m still not distanced enough from 2005 – 2016 to be anything but overjoyed with the Rams being 5-0.

canadaramParticipantDivision games are always tough. Even tougher on the road, and Seattle is tougher than most road venues. Some pretty mediocre Rams teams usually played the Seahawks tough when Seattle was competing for Super Bowls. I expect this to be a difficult game. Russell Wilson can win games by himself if needed. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Seattle win. I hope that it doesn’t come down to making some field goals.

canadaramParticipantI got distracted by Cowherd’s discussion of cakes and cupcakes.
canadaramParticipantIt’s interesting to see Gurley lined up as a wideout. I’ve noticed it a couple of times this season. Most notably tonight on Woods’ TD in the 3rd. My memory ain’t what it used to be, but I don’t remember it happening last season.
canadaramParticipantWow. Such an amazing performance by the offense. I don’t even know who to talk about. Maybe McVay I guess, but I’m most excited about Goff as far as players go. He’s playing with so much confidence now. 4-0!! Wow. 2011 still seems so fresh to me. So for the Rams to be 4-0 with a long week off is pretty sweet!
canadaramParticipantI kind of hope that is what happens. I understand the excitement of a primetime game, but I don’t like them. If it were up to me the Rams would play all of their games on Sundays at 8:00 EST.
canadaramParticipantIf the front doesn’t get any pressure, Diggs and Thielen will have big games. Also, I see Rudolph vs. the Rams LBs is a mismatch that favours the Vikings. I think Minnesota wins this game.
canadaramParticipantNew-and-improved-living-in-the-moment-Canadaram is super excited by how solidly Goff performed today. I haven’t felt this confident about a Rams QB since the 2003 version of Bulger.
I think the Rams have the depth to weather the injuries in the secondary assuming more injuries don’t occur, but it sure would help if Donald can start finding his groove.
canadaramParticipantMy reaction is that I am very pleased. I also realize that I’ve changed since the last time I had expectations of the Rams in early 2000s. Back then I’d find stuff that bothered me about the Rams performance even in victory. Now I’m just happy to watch or listen to the game and I’m grateful that they appear to be a legitimate threat for a playoff run.
Anyway, if I recall correctly the Cardinals didn’t cross midfield until the end of the 4th quarter. Not that anyone is going to confuse the 2018 Cardinals offense with the GSOT, but that’s some good defending by the Rams.
canadaramParticipantI was surprised that he’s listed as being over 6ft, he looks shorter to me. I’m no carnival height guesser guy though, so what do I know. At any rate he seems like he might start his career like Danny Amendola- spending some time on one or two practice squads before he finds a home. Since it seems as though several starters will be resting I’d like to see him play against the Texans starting secondary.
canadaramParticipantI am relieved that Goff and Gurley should be starting the season healthy. However, I reserve the right to whine and complain if they start off slowly. I will also claim that I was against resting them from the beginning.

canadaramParticipantI hope that he gets the help that he needs.

canadaramParticipantI haven’t watched the game yet, but I’m glad to read the positive reports about Demby and Noteboom. Depth on the oline will be important. I’m wondering if there is any chance that the Rams keep both Kelly and Davis and cut Malcolm Brown.
canadaramParticipantNo injuries and lots of Luis Perez and Brandon Allen.

canadaramParticipantwell that would be just so freaking huge. a big target to go with those jitterbug wide receivers?
Agreed.
One of several things that I remember thinking while watching the loss to the Falcons in the first round was the Rams need to find or develop a reliable TE.

canadaramParticipantI’m also very interested to read about Sam Shields progress during camp.
