Because the Lakers are the only team in the NBA that actually matters.

Dude, Paula Abdul is no longer a cheerleader, Jack Nicholson and Diane Cannon no longer have their butts in the Forum….

Dr Buss is dead and so are the Lakers.. they won’t even make the 8th seed this year……

without searching DUCK DUCK GO, Does anyone even know the name of the current Laker Head Coach? I’ll give you a clue, he was a Warrior assistant and his dad won a ring as a back up center vs Paula Abdul;’s showtime team……

BTW I do hope the Lakers make the 8th seed so the Warriors can sweep them…….. these are not Chris Mullens nor Sleepy Floyd’s Warrior teams….

I just don’t see that as “genius” on behalf of the other team, and I think the Rams’ lost the Super Bowl. The Pats didn’t win it, IMO.

Correct, that game was there to be taken, and the Rams just couldn’t grasp it…

it was a 1 possession game for 59 minutes, 3-3 tie with 10:00 left to play… as bad as the offense struggled there was little doubt in my mind that the Rams were going to win…… but after Goff’s pick, you can only ask the defense to do so much to hold New England from scoring a TD…

That was a very competitive ball game…..

The question is Gurley… what it is up with Todd? Is he becoming a “Tre Mason” (mentally)….. he hasn’t been the same since McVay gave the 1st game ball to CJ Anderson after the Dallas game…(2nd game ball went to Gurley)

Too bad Goff and Cooks didn’t connect in the endzone….they had 2 golden opportunities…….

Oh well, great season.

I love this team..

officiating wasn’t better in the past…….. it was less scrutinized and reviewed with technology that is outdated…….. today’s video HD technology and camera angles gives us views we never had in the past… it doesn’t mean that officiating is worse today than it was in the past… it’s most like better….

BTW, the Saints were not flagged for a penalty until there was 5:39 remaining in the 3rd qtr…. New Orleans ended up being penalized only 3 times in a game that had more than 4 qtrs of football…..

Suh deserves special recognition.

He has been their best player since the playoffs began.

Shame he didn’t play with this intensity all year,

but if he can help the Rams defeat Emporer Belicheck and Darth Brady, all will be forgiven.

Check out what Eric Mangini said about this at the 3:28 Mark.

This segment was last week after the Dallas game…… “high priced FA’s make business decisions to save themselves for the playoffs” …..

But that non-call screwed that up a bit for me

It all evens out in the end…. Tom Mack did not move on Alan Page in the 1974 NFC Championship game….BTW, I think the Saints were only flagged twice today…

Other prominent quarterbacks to monitor: Blake Bortles, Sam Bradford, Jacoby Brissett, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Colin Kaepernick, Tyrod Taylor

Bradford delegated to “Others”

I think Sam is better than most of the “supply side” qb’s listed in the article…..

From what Mannion has shown in games, the Rams need a back up for Goff…

gurley 16 carries for 115 yards.

in 2 postseason games, 30 carries for 216 yards and a 7.2 average per carry.

Rams had 48 rushing attempts against Dallas yesterday

Last year’s playoff game vs ATL they had 16 total rushing attempts

Sorry to hear ZN

Never easy to lose a pet.

I agree I think the Rams would blow out the Bears

Cowboys more dynamic but they’re down a WR.

Tavon homecoming?

No. 1 New Orleans Saints: red zone defense

Arguably the most balanced team in the entire field, the Saints own an explosive offense and a defense that has tightened up in the second half of the season. But still, New Orleans ranked 23rd in the NFL in red zone defense, allowing opponents to cross the goal line 63.27 percent of the time.

Experience, balance, HFA and they’re hungry…

These guys lost in Minnesota on a fluke play to Case Keemun… should’ve won it all last year.

“Straight G’s,” Peters said. “We handle it like G’s. That’s the only one I like.”

C’mon man!!!! That’s the only “McVayism” he likes? no wonder this guy left guys wide open and confronted a fan in the stands……

Get with the program Marcus!!

Good article… many topics to discuss within that write up

Unmanned suicide hotline

Martz (im sure most NFL coaches) sticking their head in the sand on player injuries

Stigmatized marijuana use. It’s like being gay…users still afraid of coming out of the closet of using the evil weed.

We’ve all proudly posted photos of our vegetable and plant gardens… but we still don’t have the balls to post photos of our pot plants…

BTW i’ve Noticed an increase in promoting youth tackle football.

on the rams third to last drive he missed reynolds and gurley for sure tds and the rams had to settle for 3, on the pick he threw behind reynolds on a pass he’s made a gazillion times before, a pass that was there for the making if he had thrown a good ball, and on a 3rd down crossing route he led an open woods too far (did the same thing in the chicago game)

yes, Goff looked a bit gun shy last night….. where before he seemed to be a bit more confident in slinging the ball into tight windows….a bit more cautions and when he’s not, he’s extremly wreckless… “the Garo Y. pass”, holy shit… not a good move…it almost cost Shula his undefeated season and it might have cost the Rams a home playoff game for the NFC Championship.

Goff has the skill… he just needs his confidence back….

BTW I was a bit surprised from the lack of urgency on game clock time management… even before the valiant final drive…. Rams overall offense needs to respect the game clock a little better…..

I still love this team… one of my favorite Rams teams in a very long time…..

GO PANTHERS!
