joemadParticipantKnox built a pretty good team….too bad he was let go or quit or whatever
Rams were 5-1 when SF beat them to make them 5-2, like today
They finished 7-9
I still have a magnet schedule stuck on my metal cabinet from that season….
joemadParticipantWhat kind of generator do you have?

November 1, 2017 at 1:41 pm in reply to: With two weeks to prepare, can Rams challenge the Giants? #76736joemadParticipantESPN FPI says Giants have a 61.9% chance to win.
Rams lead NYG in almost every statistical category except avg runs allowed per game 123 vs 120 for G-MEN.
perhaps it’s the 60% chance of rain in East Rutherford on Sunday with the common heavying wind that’s netting the 62% chance of winning for the Giants, ……..or Tony Soprano’s Jersey crew has the refs in their back pocket.
This could be Paulie’s big score for the season…… both Tony and Johnny Sack’s crew always loved to bet on the home dogs………..Giants getting + 3.5
November 1, 2017 at 12:44 pm in reply to: With two weeks to prepare, can Rams challenge the Giants? #76732joemadParticipant5-2 vs 1-6. Scoring isn’t even close. LA should have this wrapped up by the end of the 3rd. However, this team isn’t used to winning. Things could go awry. So I’ll say 31-16, Rams.
Interesting stat…Giants have given up a TD to the TE in every game this year. That works nicely for McVey’s scheme.
Gerald Everett is the only Rams TE to score a TD this season…. he has 1.
joemadParticipantJimmy G. to SF…. I am bit surprised.
Brady is a million years old (41) and Jimmy G. has been groomed to take over.
Either Jimmy G is damaged goods or a dick.
joemadParticipanttough schedule.
The last 2 times the Rams started 5-2
2003: finished 12-4… lost 1st round to Carolina in OT. (Thanks Jason Sehorn!)
1995, inaugural season in STL, finished 7-9
depending on how hot Seattle plays in the 2nd half, Rams need to win at least 5 of the next 7 again.
joemadParticipantgreat coaching….
i think they’re great at offensive play calling, just outstanding. The Rams blow me away this season….
when you’re dead last in offense in 2016 to #9 this year and dead last in 3rd down conversions (32%) to #2 (Rams are converting 3rd downs 49% of the time, only Philly is higher at 50%), that is a outstanding, great play calling. No panic on 3rd and long…
Even back in preseason, you’d see nice play calling and execution which was non-existent in the past few years and you say to yourself, “fuck, the Rams look pretty fucking good and creative on offense” ……. it’s creativity that is not based on gimmicks, but smart routes and plays…. it’s very cool to watch.
McVay also balances the run very well, with the time consuming drive in Jax to seal the game with an FG… that’s football. The ability to put a game away, that right there, to do that against a great Jax D on the road just motivated the shit out of me….
the game vs Seattle, with no timeouts, the play calling got them in position to win with less than 2 min / ZERO timeouts…. too bad Kupp didn’t make the catch… that would’ve been electrifying had he made that catch…..
they didn’t panic in Dallas either, just outstanding coaching and playing calling.
what this offense playbook gives the Rams is hope, in years past, the Rams had no hope with the offensive play calling, they might as well just punted on 3rd down. Now they have the ability to consistently convert.
and to your point, Hekker and Zurlien are great too …….
joemadParticipantThe Rams are very good
joemadParticipanthe wasn’t bad last year either
joemadParticipant. So the mentality is going to have to be, if you just win, people will follow you.”
Developing a winning culture to attract fans will take time…
Especially in a behemoth stadium.
Need some magic moments to consistently happen. Kupp making the catch against Seattle would’ve helped
joemadParticipant16 play 5 min drive to seal the game with an FG
That was beautiful…
Next week AZ……Rams are 0-2 in the U.K.

Stan Kroenke Vs. Shahid Khan: The Fight for St. Louis Rams Ownership
David Leon
April 13, 2010
So the other ownership shoe dropped last night for the Rams. Adam Schefter announced on ESPN’s NFL Live that Silent Stan Kroenke has decided to exercise his contractual right of first refusal to purchase the Rams.
The report is correct. Enos Stan Kroenke has decided to exercise his contractual right of first refusal to purchase the remaining 60 percent of Ram stock he does not already own. This puts him squarely at odds with league rules and with Shahid Khan.
First, the League Rules
As you all know, the league has bylaws forbidding NFL majority owners from owning a majority share in any other sports franchise in an NFL city . The rule used to prohibit ownership of any other pro franchise in any city.
The rule was mildly re-interpreted to allow Paul Allen (owner of the Portland Trailblazers) to purchase the Seattle Seahawks. The league owners wanted Paul Allen in the clubhouse and on the golf course. The owners wanted a league connection to the new silicon economy, and to Microsoft.
League insiders have been divided on whether Kroenke might obtain a similar wavier, and/or whether the league might be prepared to do away with this archaic rule entirely. Many believe that this rule is an archaic relic of a bygone era. Many others believe the league will not change its policy for Kroenke’s sake. We are about to find out, one way or the other.
Owning both an NBA and NHL franchise in Denver should automatically disqualify Kroenke, but it just so happens he is a buddy and business partner of Pat Bowlen. Bowlen is the owner of the Denver Broncos, and co-owner of the Colorado Crush of the Arena League…along with Stan Kroenke.
Insiders expect Bowlen will plead his friend’s case. Pat Bowlen is a powerful owner, and he is also the theoretical aggrieved party , according to the strange philosophy behind the cross-ownership rule. Given Bowlen’s blessing, the deal might roll.
Several factors mitigate in Kroenke’s favor:
•The NFL Finance committee already announced that it doesn’t like one of the several financial devices Khan intends to use to purchase the Rams.
•Kroenke is already an insider. He has been partial owner of the Rams since the early 1990s. He has been vice chairman of the Rams’ board for some time, and served on several NFL committees.
•Kroenke has more money than Khan. Kroenke is worth an estimated $3 billion. His wife—Anne Walton, a Walmart heir—is worth $3.5 billion. Together they are worth approximately three times as much as Shahid Khan ($2.14 billion).
•The NFL ownership booth is one of the most exclusive clubs around. It is a consummate old boys’ network. Kroenke is much more their type of guy than Khan.What is my take on the situation?
On the one hand, I would have been shocked if Kroenke hadn’t exercised his right to purchase the rest of the Rams. My memory fails, but I remember Kroenke buying into the Rams back in 1993 or 1994, when the Rams were having serious financial trouble keeping up with the Joneses
(Jerry Jones and Eddie DeBartolo).
It was understood at the time that he wanted to buy the whole enchilada. This was the reason for the contractual right of first refusal he has chosen to exercise now. Ever since then, Kroenke has been waiting on line to buy the Rams.
Why didn’t he just attempt to buy outright? One word: Strategy. He wanted the market to set a low price in accordance with the financial distress our nation is going through at the moment. There is also the cross-ownership rule which needs to be gotten around. Kroenke wanted to see what sort of ownership interest the Rams might scratch up, and see whether the owner’s club might prefer Kroenke to own the Rams.
Will this blow up in his face? I seriously doubt a man of Kroenke’s sense would have exercised his right of first refusal if he had not been given some indications, if not outright assurances, that the NFL would hear his case with favor. I think he is confident that he will be approved, or he would not have made this move.
Now, the Fight with Khan
If the league rejects Khan and elects Kroenke, the move could be interpreted in racial terms. Would this be a case where collection of white Europeans just didn’t want a Pakistani fellow in the clubhouse? This could make for some very interesting legal wrangling inside league circles.
Pray, for the good of the Rams, that this doesn’t happen. This could hold the Rams’ ownership status in limbo for several years. This could make for several years of lost franchise history.

Stan Kroenke is new Rams owner
ATLANTA — Stan Kroenke will get his team.
He’s just got to give up two others.
The NFL unanimously approved a proposal for Kroenke to take over as majority owner of the St. Louis Rams on Wednesday, as long as he turns over control of his NBA and NHL teams to his son.
Kroenke, a 63-year-old Missouri billionaire, first became involved with bringing pro football back to St. Louis in 1993 with a failed attempt to land an expansion franchise. When the Rams moved from Los Angeles two years later, he joined the Rosenbloom family as a minority owner, increasing his stake to 40 percent in 1997.
Now, for a reported $750 million, the entire team will be his.
“I’m a 17-year overnight success,” Kroenke quipped.
But first he had to deal with NFL rules against ownership of major league franchises in other pro football cities. He owns the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and NHL’s Colorado Avalanche.
Kroenke agreed to turn over operational and financial control of those teams to 30-year-old son, Josh, by the end of the year. He must give up his majority stake in the teams by December 2014.
Kroenke marked the occasion by making a rare appearance before the media. He has steadfastly maintained a low profile as minority owner of the Rams, earning the nickname Silent Stanley.
“I just have a really busy life,” he said. “I like the members of the press. I really do. I almost went to journalism school. I just don’t have the time. It takes a lot of time to build those relationships, to nurture them.”
He scoffed as his reputation for being publicity shy.
“I’m not trying to offend anyone,” Kroenke said. “I know there’s this wonderful little picture of Silent Stan. I guess it makes good copy. But it just isn’t so.”
The NFL is confident Kroenke will follow through on his pledge to divest himself of control in the Nuggets and Avalanche, which are only part of his impressive collection of professional sports teams.
“He has tremendous experience in other sports, which is a plus,” commissioner Roger Goodell said. “One of the issues is we want owners who focus on football. That’s what Stan will be doing. He’ll be focusing more on football.”
Kroenke also owns the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer and the Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League. In addition, he is the largest shareholder in Arsenal of the English Premier League.
“He’s a quiet man who’s very effective in what he does,” said Bob Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots. “We learned about his other businesses and what he does, how he handles things overseas. He just does things the right way, and I know he wants to win.”
The Rams haven’t done much winning lately. Kroenke is taking control of a former Super Bowl champion that has gone 6-42 over the last three years — including an NFL-worst 1-15 a year ago.
He plans to run the Rams with the same behind-the-scenes style he had as minority owner. But there will be no mistake who’s the boss.
“I don’t think it’s a mystery the way we’re running our other clubs,” Kroenke said. “I like to know what’s going on; I like to be involved. But the No. 1 thing is finding the right people, putting them in place and trying to help them out.”
After years of sellouts, the Rams have fallen on hard times. The crowds have thinned considerably at the 15-year-old Edward Jones Dome, leading to speculation that St. Louis could lose its NFL team for the second time. The Cardinals moved to Arizona in 1987, and the NFL has made no secret that it would like to get a franchise back in Los Angeles, the nation’s second-largest market.
Kroenke’s purchase of the team would appear to make the Rams less likely to move.
“I’ve been around St. Louis and Missouri a major portion of my life,” he said. “I’ve never had any desire to lead the charge out of St. Louis. That’s not why we’re here. We’re here to work very hard and be successful in St. Louis.”
Then, he added, “Now, the realistic part of that. I live to be competitive. To be competitive, you have to have revenue. We’re going to work really hard to have a model that produces revenue where we can be consistently competitive. Anyone can be a contender in the pro sports business every so often. The real challenge is to be competitive every year.”
The Rams’ brother-sister ownership team of Chip Rosenbloom and Lucia Rodriguez inherited the Rams from the late Georgia Frontiere. They decided to sell because of inheritance tax issues and had a bid from Illinois businessman Shahid Khan to purchase their 60 percent share in February.
Kroenke stepped in, exercising his right to buy the rest of the team with a matching bid.
Khan issued a statement praising the man who scuttled his bid for the Rams.
“This adventure didn’t turn out the way I had hoped,” Khan said, “but it was otherwise a worthwhile experience in every respect and I’ll always be a fan of the St. Louis Rams.”
Josh Kroenke is a former Missouri basketball player. He’ll serve as governor of the NHL team and set the budget, but team president Pierre Lacroix will retain control over personnel decisions.
Given his background, the younger Kroenke will likely have a larger role with the Nuggets, who are restructuring their front office after parting with executives Mark Warkentien and Rex Chapman.
One of the Nuggets’ biggest priorities is deciding what to do with Carmelo Anthony, who has so far declined to accept a three-year, $65 million contract extension.
Stan Kroenke declined to comment on Anthony’s status at the NFL owners meeting.
“I’m here to talk about the Rams,” he said. “We’ll talk about Carmelo some other time. I’m sure Josh will have a lot of good answers for you on that.”

Jilted In 2010 By Stan Kroenke, Shahid Khan Buys The Jaguars
by Ryan Van Bibber Nov 29, 2011, 10:38am CST
The Jacksonville Jaguars connections to the St. Louis Rams are simply frightening today. The most recent tangent, Illinois auto parts magnate Shahid Khan will buy the Jaguars. Rams fans know Khan from his attempt to buy the Rams in 2010.
Khan was close to signing on the dotted line to purchase the 60 percent share Chip Rosenbloom and Lucia Rodriguez, passed to them by Georgia Frontiere. Stan Kroenke swooped in at the last minute and exercised his right to purchase the remaining portion of the team, giving him 100 percent ownership.
According to Peter King, Kroenke move “disappointed” Khan for very personal reasons.
Khan’s Americanization as a kid was centered around a love of football. Very disappointed when Kroenke trumped his bid for Rams in 2010.
Not that it matters much to me, ultimately, but there is a bit of cosmic justice in Khan finally getting to purchase an NFL team. Like he did with the Rams, Khan is promising to keep the Jags in their current city.
Now, let’s just hope Kroenke gets the Rams functional sooner than the Jags find their direction.
joemadParticipanti don’t believe that the root of that fumble rule in the endzone was based on the holy roller play.
The holy roller rule states that the fumbling team cannot advance the ball in the final 2 min of a half.. (Like Casper did when Stabler purposely fumbled the ball in San Diego)
It’s a stupid rule because if it happens in the field of play (outside the endzone) the team must have possession of the ball prior to the ball going out of bounds… awarding it to the defense without possession because it went out of bounds in the endzone is not fair….it’s dumb….
when that play was being reviewed, I was thinking to myself, ifa Gurley doesn’t get the score, we’ll celebrate a play later because it’s highly probable that the Rams will score……… then the ref awards the ball to Seattle, we were shocked, we didn’t even see the ball loose on the play.
it’s not Holy Roller, it’s HOLY COW, the RAMS got screwed again on a bad replay call this season!!!!!

joemadParticipanti remember replying to a thread on a Rams message board on a rule change that you would recommend to change…… I picked that rule, fumbling out of bounds in the endzone.. i fucking hate that rule…
in addition, red flags are fucking killing me this season against the Rams….
You had 2 red flags dropped by SF that went against the Rams, i think both were the Pierre Gacon catches… to me, the evidence was inconclusive to overturn those incompletions to catches….. yet they were both overturned…. to top it off one of the “catches” tacked on 15 yards for a very questionable late hit on Hoyer by AD…….
Then, we had the red flag on the Woods TD catch that was ruled incomplete vs Dallas, that clearly was a catch but not overturned (turned out OK, because the Rams scored on the next play).
Then we had this bull shit call against Gurley last Sunday against Seattle….. to me that was not conclusive enough to show anyone that Gurley lost possession of the ball…..
I’m all for replay, but the video has to show conclusive evidence!!!
Mike Perriera, do your job!!!!

joemadParticipantit’s a shame that, that catch wasn’t made……
could turn out to be a huge play for the 2017 season….. let’s hope they learn from that play and that game.
joemadParticipantThe Gurley ruled Fumble
The missed FG
Kupp’s drop
I was at the game …..It’s a shame Kupp dropped it…
Rams are a better team but Seattle’s D is still good
Wilson made some nice throws on the run….
joemadParticipantRAMS 31
Sea 10If there’s one team that knows how to beat Wilson, it’s the Rams. He’s just 5-5 against Los Angeles (and St. Louis) in his career with 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions. His passer rating is a very respectable 95.2, but there’s one stat that stands out when he plays the Rams.
In his career, Wilson has been sacked by the Rams 39 times – more than any other team. That’s eight more times than the 49ers have sacked him, which is the second most of any team.
joemadParticipantThat quote bothered me too. Whatever it meant, I’ll suspect that second half of the game can be teaching point. “look guys, this is what happens when you do it the way I told you.”
halftime adjustments…. it’s something that the Rams have lacked in recent years….
this is a good thing…..
joemadParticipantDallas finished 13-3 last year.
2 losses vs NYG and 1 vs Philly (3 divisional losses) the other Philly game went to OT.
Against McVay’s Washington offense, Dallas went 2-0….
Week II 2016 in DC: 27 23:
http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2016091807/2016/REG2/cowboys@redskins#menu=gameinfo%7CcontentId%3A0ap3000000704769&tab=recapLANDOVER, Md. — Alfred Morris scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 4-yard run with under five minutes left Sunday, leading the Dallas Cowboys to a 27-23 victory over his former team, the Redskins, after Washington’s Kirk Cousins threw an end-zone interception .
With rookie quarterback Dak Prescott looking poised throughout and scrambling for a 6-yard TD run in the second half, Dallas (1-1) won for only the second time in its past 16 games without the injured Tony Romo – and both of those victories came at Washington (0-2).
Prescott finished 22 for 30 for 292 yards.
Morris was drafted by Washington in 2012 and played his first four seasons there. But his role was reduced last year and he was allowed to leave as a free agent. His first TD in a Cowboys uniform capped an 80-yard drive that started when Barry Church picked off a pass from Cousins intended for Pierre Garcon.
Cousins went 28 for 46 for 364 yards, with an 11-yard touchdown pass to Jamison Crowder in the third quarter that gave Washington its first lead, 17-13 in the third quarter.
But Cousins and the defending NFC East champion Redskins will rue the second-half chances they wasted. They got the ball inside Dallas’ 40 on consecutive possessions – once because of a failed onside kick and once because cornerback Josh Norman caused a fumble by Dallas rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott – but settled for a field goal each time.
Still, Washington led 23-20 and appeared on its way to adding to the margin after Cousins began a drive by completing a 57-yard pass to rookie Josh Doctson. But on third-and-goal at the 6 with 10 1/2 minutes left, Cousins put the ball right in Church’s gut.
Garcon stomped his foot coming off the field. Redskins right tackle Morgan Moses threw his helmet on the sideline.
Prescott then took the Cowboys on a 10-play drive that culminated in Morris’ score.
Week XII 2016 at Dallas 31-26
Washington had no running game that day, went pass happy, had to rally for 20 in the 4th to make it close….
http://www.espn.com/nfl/recap?gameId=400874499
ARLINGTON, Texas — Rookies Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott keep winning for the Dallas Cowboys, even with Kirk Cousins setting records for the Washington Redskins.
Prescott accounted for two touchdowns , Elliott ran for a pair of scores and the Cowboys extended their franchise regular-season record with a 10th straight victory, beating the Redskins 31-26 on Thursday.
Prescott tied Don Meredith’s club quarterback record from 50 years ago with his fifth rushing TD and the NFL-leading Cowboys (10-1) won despite 449 yards passing and three touchdowns from Cousins, the first Redskins quarterback with two 400-yard games in a season.
“You know you’re talking to someone who knows how hard this is to win 10 games in a row, and I do,” Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones said. “I know how we’re getting it done, and we’re getting done by hard work and Dak’s a great example.”
The Redskins (6-4-1) got swept by their NFC East rival, and the defending division champions fell 3 1/2 games behind Dallas with five games left. It was their seventh loss in eight tries on Thanksgiving against Cowboys, who had never won more than eight straight in the regular season.
“We’ve been in third place for a while, so we have to understand where we are what it’s going to take to get an opportunity to come back here in the future,” Washington coach Jay Gruden said. “The last five games of the year are critical.”
Elliott, the NFL rushing leader, had the fourth score on five straight second-half touchdown drives between the two teams with a 1-yard run for a 31-19 lead midway through the fourth quarter. The 21-year-old had 97 yards to give him 1,199 for the season.
After getting 43 yards on the first Dallas possession, Elliott had just 13 yards before a 21-yarder to start Dallas’ last TD drive. It was the second straight week he finished with 97 yards after some difficulty in the first half.
“Over time, you keep running the football, you’re going to wear them down,” Dallas coach Jason Garrett said. “He made some big runs late that were critical. It really broke their back.”
The Cowboys had an eight-game streak with at least 400 yards snapped, finishing with 353. But Dallas answered with touchdowns each time the Redskins got within a score on Cousins’ passes of 5 yards to Jordan Reed and 67 yards to DeSean Jackson , who had 118 yards receiving.
After Cousins’ second scoring toss to Reed, an 8-yarder with 1:53 remaining, Dustin Hopkins’ onside kick went out of bounds. The Cowboys ran out the clock.
“The way Dallas was able to come back and put points on the board in those situations is part of the reason why they are such a good football team,” said Cousins , who was 41 of 53 and finished 8 yards shy of his career high.
“As an offense, whenever we got the football, it was pretty much the same. Move the football, put points on the board, make good decisions and manage it well.”
Cousins took the Washington career lead with his third 400-yard game and became the first Redskins quarterback with consecutive 350-yard games since Jay Schroeder in 1986. He had 375 last week against Green Bay.
Reed had 10 catches for 95 yards after missing most of the first half when he injured his left shoulder leaping for a pass over his head in the end zone.
Prescott was 17 of 24 for a season-low 195 yards and one touchdown, a toe-tapper to Terrance Williams . He had eight carries for 39 yards, including a career-long 18-yarder. Dez Bryant led Dallas with 72 yards on five catches.
BACK TO THE PACK
Undrafted rookie running back Robert Kelley of the Redskins was held to 37 yards on 14 carries a week after getting a career-high 137 yards with three touchdowns against the Packers. He was averaging more than 100 yards per game the previous three.
SUN FIELD
The late-afternoon sun shining through the glass doors on the west side of the stadium was an issue in the opener when Dallas tight end Jason Witten admitted that the glare contributed to a pass he dropped in the New York Giants’ 20-19 win.
Cousins had to battle it during a second-quarter drive that ended in the second of Dustin Hopkins’ two missed field goals: a 55-yarder.
Prescott threw away from the sun to Williams for the touchdown on the subsequent possession, and the glare wasn’t a factor after that.
UP NEXT
Redskins: Washington gets the 10-day break before the second of three straight road games in Arizona on Dec. 4. The trip ends with another crucial NFC East game at Philadelphia on Dec. 11.
Cowboys: It’ll be a “regular” seven-day week with a visit to Minnesota next Thursday. Then Dallas gets the longer break before a Dec. 11 visit to the New York Giants that is likely to be a battle of the top two teams in the division.

Points Scored: Dallas Cowboys 722, Los Angeles Rams 644September 26, 2017 at 3:52 pm in reply to: NFL Players Respond to Trump on Anthem Protesters… + Kroenke #75068joemadParticipantShould an American soccer player who plays for, say, AC Milan stand during the Italian national anthem? Should he put his hand on his heart? Should he sit?
1) I don’t think that US Soccer players are good enough to play for Milan……..
but the reverse happens, put a Russian on a US Hockey team and they don’t give a rats ass about USA’s pregame ceremony.
I’m not a big hockey fan, but I used to take the kids to 1 or 2 San Jose Sharks game per year….. one season, my kid noticed the goalie (Evgini Nabokov used to be the Sharks goalie), he’d rest his elbows on his knees and not face the flag during the sharks pre game ceremony, I remember my asking me why he wasn’t standing….,…
I replied, “He’s Russian and doesn’t care about the anthem” ….
I looked for a photo… found this one where Nabokov continued his M.O. during Francis Scott Key’s anthem in the finals for the N.Y. Islanders…..
joemadParticipantRams get 10 days rest
Dallas has 6
I know everyone has concerns about the Rams defense, but ST got a free pass last Thursday in SF and put the defense in some tough situations.
1) Off sides on a punt that gave SF a fresh set of downs
2) Tavon muffed a punt, (almost muffed 2 punts)
3) Pharoh Cooper fumbled a KO return
4) SF recovered the OSK= 17 points
The Rams offense is very functional, it actually looks pretty good. Not only does McVay call a nice game (misdirection, rolling passes) the Rams can execute McVay’s game plan….
I think that the Rams can win this game.
joemadParticipantthat was a cool show,
I hadn’t heard about the Vermeil wreck either.. and no one knew about the hammy
In addition I didn’t know that Faulk believes in Voodoo, but Tory does not…
joemadParticipantjoemadParticipantFucking Rams gave me a heart condition tonight…
Shades of 1989 MNF Niner game in Anaheim
I think Gurley got his 100 today
BTW my local SF buddies all texting me Phantom PI call..
FUCK EM!!!!

Thursday night games underscores NFL’s hypocrisy on player safety
Eric Reid rubbed his knee as he carefully dressed by his locker. Brian Hoyer came into a postgame news conference with a lump on his forehead and a bandage over one eyebrow.
Those were just two of the more visible injuries the 49ers had Sunday. Every man who was on the field certainly came away nicked, bruised and sore. Reid is out for the foreseeable future with a knee-ligament injury. Another safety, Jaquiski Tartt, is questionable for the 49ers’ next game with a neck injury. Tight end George Kittle is nursing a hip injury.
The 49ers have only 96 hours to lick their wounds, heal their bodies and get ready to play again.
It’s a short week for the 49ers. On Thursday night, they will host the Los Angeles Rams at Levi’s Stadium.
That evening, fans will trade the stadium’s afternoon heat issues for midweek traffic issues. And the players will trade a normal amount of time to recover from a game for a couple of extra days off before their next game.
The trade probably isn’t worth it.
“Thursday Night Football” has become Exhibit No. 6,732 in the problems the NFL has created.
The Thursday games have been a universally poor product since their inception in 2006. They have become symbolic of the NFL’s oversaturation, the league’s greed and its general lack of concern about players’ health.
Thursdays are also becoming an example of the dwindling popularity of the once-Teflon league.
Ratings for the Thursday night league opener this year, even with Tom Brady playing, declined 12 percent from last year. And last year’s saw a seven percent decline from 2015’s. The season opener, featuring the Super Bowl winner, is usually the best Thursday night game on the schedule.
This year, the NFL followed Kansas City-New England with a 13-9 snoozer between Houston and Cincinnati.
And is the nation really clamoring to see the Rams (1-1) against a 49ers team that has yet to win a game or score a touchdown? Probably not.
Early last year, NBC and CBS signed a $900 million deal for the rights to carry Thursday night games for two seasons. The networks are probably regretting the deal.
Ratings are down for the league overall, but “Thursday Night Football” is notable because it has been such a bad and boring product over the years. In its greed for more cash, and more exposure, the NFL failed to account for the reality that short-week football is bad. The players are tired, beat up, ill-prepared — and the product suffers.
Last season, Seattle’s Richard Sherman — never shy to share his opinions — called “Thursday Night Football” a “poopfest.”
He said the games rank high on the list of things he doesn’t like about the league.
“It’s pretty high, top five,” Sherman said. “It’s hypocritical. … They make this huge stance about player safety and then they put the players in tremendous danger.”
In an essay on the Players’ Tribune, Sherman detailed the differences in the preparation for a regular game and a Thursday game. When a player has to play on Thursday after Sunday, Sherman wrote: “Your body isn’t ready. You’re still sore from Sunday’s game. You’re going to go out there and compete with everything you have, because that’s what you do. But your body just won’t have as much to give as it would have had on a full week’s rest.
“That’s why the quality of play has been so poor on Thursday nights this season. We’ve seen blowouts, sloppy play and games that have been almost unwatchable — and it’s not the players’ faults. Their bodies just aren’t ready to play.”
Even John Madden weighed in last year in an interview with the Bay Area News Group, noting that there just aren’t enough good teams to fill every prime television slot.
“Something has to be done about ‘Thursday Night Football.’ It just doesn’t work,” he said. “It’s not only a fan thing, it’s a team thing. It’s a safety thing. It’s a competitive thing. It doesn’t work.”
The outcry about “Thursday Night Football” got so loud last season, as ratings dropped and the product continued to be unappealing, that a rumor made the rounds that the league was considering dropping the games from the schedule. That led to the NFL issuing a statement that it is “fully committed to ‘Thursday Night Football’ and any reports to the contrary are unfounded.”
That is brought to you by the same league that is “fully committed” to player safety.
The NFLPA agreed to the games. The league is making money. Nothing is going to change for now.
So on Thursday, the bruised and sore Rams and 49ers will take the field. And a nation will ignore them.
