    I would be two dozen doughnuts that Raheem Morris is scheming up some special blitzes for that dude in this game.

    if for no other reason than to save face.

    a lot will depend on what happens with ferguson (who i still believe in) and the first round pick this year.

    i’m still holding out hope that the rams can win the division.

    both for stafford’s chances at winning mvp and the rams’ chances at winning the superbowl.

    i could see maye winning mvp if the rams don’t win the division.

    i’d like for him to get it, but some people have questioned if an mvp award would be handed to a guy whose team finishes second or third in their division. i don’t know that that’s happened before or not.

    i’m rooting for him though.

    Also, what happens when you hit the player going for the ball after the whistle? Penalty?

    yeah. in the video i posted. the guy explains it really well. if a rams player had dove at the seahawks player, most likely a penalty is called on the rams. the play was dead. if players had acted as if it was still a live ball even after the whistle then it’s a different story. at best they should have replayed the down. and the seahawks still may have scored. just a very weird play.

    i’m not so upset about it. more upset about the ferguson td that was cancelled by a non-penalty. more upset about the punt return for a td which was not the refs fault. more upset by all the big plays the rams defense gave up.

    if adams is still out, i’d like to see mcvay get ferguson more involved. no other skill position player on the team has his size/speed combo.

    But, he also only has 9 catches on 21 targets. That gives him the lowest catch % on the whole team (42.9%).

    he was 3 on 4 targets against the seahawks though. woulda been 4 on 5 targets with that second td.

    he looks so much more explosive than any of the other tight ends on this team. and mcvay seems to trust him more and more as a blocker.

    maybe not this season but definitely one for the future.

    i think this clip explains well how the rams got robbed on that two point conversion call. ultimately the rams lost the game. they flubbed on plenty of other plays that could have easily clinched the win for them, but they couldn’t execute.

    eagles: up 26-7 in the 3rd, lost.
    niners: up 20-7 in the 3rd, lost.
    hawks: up 30-14 in the 4th, lost.

    brutal.

    the good news: reached the postseason again, for the 7th time in the 9 seasons mcvay has been hc, and have as good a chance as anyone to make a sb run.

    go rams!

    the rams did get jobbed by the refs.

    you won’t believe this, but he called out the refs again right after the game. the tweet was quickly deleted but not before it went viral.

    i don’t even want to post it. part of me was laughing. the other part was wtf.

    special teams let the team down. coverage teams. punting. kicking.

    and that fluke 2 pt conversion… i’m sad….

    yeah. they did not close out. defense layed a fourth quarter egg. offense couldn’t get first downs.

    the rams got screwed on what would have been a td to ferguson but no excuses. they shoulda closed out. especially with three turnovers. big plays killed them.

    i’m so sad.

    i’m a little conflicted. on one hand i am not exactly sure he knew what that hand gesture meant. i didn’t even know until i looked it up.

    on the other hand his family is very close to the dana white family… it doesn’t mean they share the same beliefs, but that dude is a little dangerous in my opinion. dana white that is. i also read on reddit somewhere that he was a covid denier and didn’t believe in vaccines. so… i don’t know. he’s young. maybe naive. i hope he learns from this. not just from a pr perspective. but also from a personal standpoint.

    i like to watch him play. a joy to watch. this is a little disappointing though.

    in fairness to puka, i saw another segment where he was invited to a Jewish Seder and talked about what a good time he had and how much he enjoyed participating in another culture and learning different things. i think he was tricked. having said that he’s gotta be careful. he’s also gotta not insult the refs who could have a direct impact on the game tonight.

    apparently puka is facing some controversy this week. livestreamed with some social media stars. was insulting nfl refs, was doing what some are calling an antisemitic dance (so the dance is done by some guy who is actually jewish but he’s also widely known to hold some pretty far right views and is associated with white nationalists)… he also tried to sneak these guys into the rams facility but was admonished by sean mcvay.

    not what i wanted to hear.

    PFF doesn’t “do” an “overall team” rating, but….

    i guess it’s not too surprising. their schedule has been pretty tough. like 11 games against teams with winning records. and they’re not just beating them. they’re winning emphatically. so hopefully they can keep this up tomorrow.

    And I think it was Brady who said this. His super powers that make him something more than just a solid receiver are “in the phone booth” type skills. Hands, sheer combative will, extraordinary body control, quick thinking, pure athleticism, timing, instantaneous reactions–-all combined, all in the phone booth space at the moment of the catch.

    but again the same can be said for kupp. as well as this kupp had the same kind of physicality and attitude that made me worry about his durability. yet i don’t quite get the same feels as i do with him. and i’m not quite sure why that is. maybe it’s cuz kupp was much more of a technician. a professional. not that nacua doesn’t work at his craft. but when he’s out on the field it’s like he’s just having fun as opposed to kupp where it was much more cold and analytical. precise. i don’t know.

    Jourdan Rodrique and others. They noted that Colby Parkinson ran down Aiden Hutchinson on the INT.

    do you know at what time they said that? i was looking for it but couldn’t find it.

    Well, he’s definitely a throw-back. An old-school 70’s kindof receiver. Tough as nails, fearless, reckless. “A rolling ball of butcher knives”. Charley Taylor, Andre Reed come to mind.

    some of it is definitely that. but there’s something more. kupp is also that same type of throwback receiver, but he didn’t evoke the same type of emotion. maybe it’s cuz he looks like an overgrown kid just out there playing football. i’m not quite sure what it is.

    i don’t know. i’m hoping it’s a chemistry issue. maybe ferguson is just a fraction of a second slow in processing everything. i hope he figures it out because he could make this offense something truly special. parkinson and allen are good, but i can’t help but feel ferguson could turbocharge an already potent offense.
