    I enjoyed reading that. I always tried my best to be present in the moment when watching Donald play. I wanted to truly appreciate his greatness and be sure to acknowledge what a unique era his career was for Rams fans. Still, I don’t think I appreciated his dominance enough.

    i know what you mean. i always knew that when i watched him play i was watching something different. and i might possibly never see his like again. but i still don’t think i appreciated how truly great he was.

    well said.

    Resign Stafford, or go all-in for Sam Darnold?

    i know you’re joking but no. he’s had a good season but hell no.

    i’m also hoping they sign staley for new rams left tackle.

    then draft a receiver and a defensive back in the draft. sprinkle in some lb, dl, and ol depth in the draft.

    They could do a lot between now and September and field a real contender in 2025. Need to draft and/or sign an OT, a CB or 2, an ILB, and probably a fast receiver. Which is all do-able.

    they need to re-sign stafford too.

    i’ll be continually worried until they actually re-sign him.

    Kupp is a mere shadow of himself. A wraith. Cooper Wraith. Outside of Puka, no one seems to be able to get separation. I wonder if defenses have figured out how to take advantage of the lack of speed the Rams have at WR, and since the TEs and RBs don’t really figure into the passing attack very much, the offense is getting stymied.

    yeah. it’s not just hav. coop has declined. overall they lack speed. i agree with nittany.

    Rams Bros.@RamsBrothers
    Only 6 teams in NFL HISTORY have made the playoffs after starting the season 1-4:
    • 1970 Bengals
    • 1992 Chargers
    • 2002 Titans
    • 2011 Broncos
    • 2015 Chiefs
    • 2018 Colts

    how many have won their division?

    noteboom was horrible. kinchens shoulda knocked the ball down? but maybe better to secure the possession instead of something crazy happening?

    but yay.

    sorry if it sounds like i’m bagging on the game, but we’ll i’m bagging on the game. i can still enjoy the game, but it was terrible.

    correct me if i’m wrong. just going off the top of my head. the rams got one turnover. two but the second one was at the end of the game and by then it was pretty much over. the jets also went for it on fourth down four times and only got one. the other three the rams converted into 10 points.

    ugly game. but everyone here is right. it was a win. the defense made stops when it had to. they’re still in it. good times.

    Yeah, I think we are in the Golden Age of Rams football.

    Got no idea what happens Post-Stafford, but for now, this is as good of an organization as any fan can hope for.

    i agree, but the ultimate test for this organization is the ability to draft and develop a qb. they were close with goff, and if they were a little more patient, i think they could’ve pulled it off not necessarily blaming them. mcvay was not experienced enough to handle the situation.

    but this is the last thing. and maybe another superbowl to really cement the mcvay snead era.

    GB up 30-13 w/ 5 minutes left in the game.

    + Smith was injured. Hope he’s okay.

    Rams are about to move into first place in the NFC West and the No. 4 seed in the NFC playoff picture entering Week 16.

    (Bucs have conference record tiebreaker, which is why they’ll be the No. 3 seed)

    seahawks have a tough matchup next week. but it’d still be nice to see the rams just win out to end the season.

    i think this is a flawed but talented team that had to deal with injuries particularly the oline.

    I think this is the lock of the year. Sigh.

    49ers — 24
    Rams — 17

    i do worry about a letdown. and this team is so inconsistent.

    my only hope is the oline is solidified. puka and coop are relatively healthy.

    Well, actually, they only needed 43 of those points, so…

    well i suppose if they only scored 43 points the bills could have gone for a 2 pt conversion to tie the game…

    well they had to play an almost perfect game. no turnovers committed. blocked punt returned for a td. they did get hosed on some defensive penalties that were not penalties.

    but it’s a win. defense needs to be better, but that bills offense is crazy good. allen running around is just unfair almost.

    puka was amazing. up and down year because of injuries but starting to play like his old self again. kupp clutch and unselfish. even tutu made some clutch plays. oline healthy and gelling.

    man they really beat the bills. it’s farging crazy.

    Yeah, I’m pessimistic about this. I’m sure WASH also knew he needs to “bulk up,” and has enough knowledge around the building to work on that with him. My guess is the dude is just scrawny, and will never be an NFL player. But I’d be happy to be wrong.

    i would also add that goff had similar problems coming out of college and it took him a couple years to start filling out.

    and yeah you’d figure washington should have access to the same knowledge on how to bulk him up, but with the regime change maybe they just ran out of patience.

    regardless the team gave up almost nothing to claim him off waivers.

    Funny thing. I’d rather they win this game, and lose one of the others that they SHOULD win, then lose this game, and win all the others. I’d like to see them play well against one of the Tier 1 teams.

    if they manage to win this game, my expectations will be going through the roof.

    i’ve been up and down on this team the whole season. a win against the bills would validate my belief in the talent this organization has been building.

    yes. a win against a championship caliber team would be a statement for sure.

    i like the move. he needs to bulk up. but athletically he’s as good as it gets numbers-wise. maybe another les snead under the radar pickup that pays off down the road.

    and if it doesn’t work out, you haven’t really lost anything.

    Sean McVay said it’s possible both John Johnson III and Troy Reeder could be ready to return from IR, but that the Rams have just one spot left.

    it was nice knowing you troy.

    i got this marked as a loss. probably not a very controversial opinion.

    but the rest of the games the rams should be able to win.

    Verse was brutally angry with himself for errors in last week’s 37-20 loss to the Eagles. The week of practice leading up to Sunday was all about personal accountability. He asked coaches and teammates not to let up on him — to be hard on him about details all week.

    tone setter. so encouraging to read things like this. him and kobie and fiske. i know i’m not the first to say this but i never imagined losing donald that the rams would be able to not replace his ability but at least establish a standard of accountability? maybe i’m not saying it right but i don’t find myself questioning this team’s character. the rookies may make mistakes but it’s not because of laziness rather it’s because of their desire to be great. i think donald would be proud to play with this unit.

    #Rams IDL Kobie Turner is leading all interior defensive lineman in stops on the season. He’s been huge in year two and I don’t think that gets talked about enough.

    all interior defensive linemen in the league? or on the rams?

    The highest-graded Rams in Week 13 vs the Saints:

    🥇 Omar Speights – 94.1
    🥈 Kevin Dotson – 90.9
    🥉 Jared Verse – 89.6
    🏅 Puka Nacua – 83.7
    🏅 Matthew Stafford – 83.4

    forgot about speights. wow. what a rookie class. i know they’ve made mistakes, but i don’t know how much we could’ve expected. as long as they continue to improve and start to cut out those mistakes.

    last week was tough but i don’t necessarily think it was a beatdown like people are suggesting. i thought they did well in the first half and then it just fell apart.

    i’m thinking they come out pissed today.
