they should’ve kept Chris Chandler over Chris Miller…….., but Miller did start off on fire in STL.
damn, time flies,…
joemadParticipantRM thanks for setting it up.
Do the current standings include my week 11 picks?

the back breaker was not scoring the TD when they had 1st and goal in the 4th….The third down call, and the decision
to kick a FG on 4th down were interesting to me.
It kinda showed that Fisher had just given up
on the idea of pounding the ball into the endzone
against that Cardinal front seven. Even
Fisher didnt believe they could beat that
Cardinal front with ram-power.That sez somethin about the Ram OLine,
maybe.w
vI understood why Fisher didn’t go for it on 4th and 1, but I was surprised he didn’t go for it.
What have you got to lose at this point in the season?
Had they scored 7 it would be easier to game plan for a 60 yarder for Zerlein. If the Rams get stuffed, they have the Cards pinned.
The Rams ended up getting the ball back twice anyway.
joemadParticipantFoles is China doll too, isn’t he hurt?
All QBs get hurt, look at Arizona, down to #3, their biggest success was based on Palmer and Warner who also had a histories of injury.
Bottom line, most QB’s get hurt …… while very very few rookies succeed.
Keep Bradford…. he is your best choice at this point.
For every Andrew Luck picked, there’s 10 Joey Harringtons or Gio Carmazzis.
QBs picks since 2000.

7 234 Joe Hamilton QB Georgia Tech Tampa Bay BuccaneersjoemadParticipantI thought the O-line for the Cardinals did enough to open some holes for their RB and did a good job picking up the blitz.
I thought the opposite of the Rams’ O-line. Hill didn’t have a lot of time to set up and find open receivers, and I don’t know if there were a lot of open receivers. Arizona’s blueprint of hitting the QB all game and winning in the 4th quarter worked again. That bad pass to Bailey that could have gotten the Rams into Cardinals’ territory was a result of a game of pressure and hits … when he had a chance to finally burn Arizona, he threw the ball quickly and was inaccurate enough that Bailey couldn’t pull in the pass.
The defense was fine. I’ll take 12 points every time, especially when they were put in some very tough situations by the offense and had to be on the field so much.
you nailed it. Rams didn’t run block well….and the Cards did…
this allowed the Cards to run a balanced offensive attack.
the back breaker was not scoring the TD when they had 1st and goal in the 4th….
Next year, with Bradford and Quick, with this existing D, the Rams will be a force to be reckoned with.
joemadParticipantI have a buddy that has press passes to cover all bay area teams.
we talk at the water cooler almost everyday about local sports especially football.
1) he told me that Shawn Hill should have been starting sooner, but understands why Fisher didn’t replace Davis sooner at QB.. when Hill was with SF, his knock was he performed poorly in practice, but played better in games especially in the h4th qtr… except in San Diego!!!!
2) he loves the Ram defense, he told me “the RAMS are the best team in the NFC west right now” I guess we’ll see tonight against AZ>
also, several of my SF and Raider fan buddies, that I can sometimes rationalize with also love the RAM D… some of these guys have them as their fantasy defense….
It’s funny, sometimes i’m to blame when the RAMS suck for their fantasy team…….. “Your fucking RAMS jacked me up this week Joe!” but that hasn’t been the case lately…
BTW, not much love for Kapernick these days……..they’re getting sick of him real fast.
joemadParticipantRams defense was great back then, very underrated.
They pitched at least 1 shut out every year from 1973 to 1979.
1973 2 shut outs
1974 2 shut outs
1975 1 shut out
1976 1 shut out
1977 3 shut outs
1978 1 shut out
1979 3 shut outs, the 3rd in the NFC Championship game.they didn’t hold anyone scoreless again until 1985, when they did it twice, to KC and Dallas, unfortunately they got skunked against the Bears in the NFC Championship.

“..Titans turned that trick…as did the two best defenses of the last 45 years, the 1985 Bears and the 2000 Ravens. Notably the two teams to record THREE straight shutouts are the 1970 St. Louis Cardinals and the 1976 Pittsburgh Steelers. This defense appears to have turned the corner toward living up to its hype….”The Cardinals
had a great Defense??I dont remember that.
w
vI don’t either. But statistical anomalies happen. And it was a low-scoring era.
I saw on the list of back-to-back shutouts the 1974 49ers, and that caught my eye because my memory is that the 49ers were not a good football team in the 70s. I looked them up, and they finished 6-8 in 1974. That isn’t the 76 Steelers.
But then…neither are the 14 Rams.
I look up the 74 season…
RAMS pitched 2 shuts that year, vs Saints and Falcons, (not back-to-back)
SF, pitched back-to-back shut outs to Bears and Falcons that year, ironically, SF was shut out the following week 7-0 in Cleveland. 7 points allowed over 3 games is not bad.
SF’s defense was getting old but were decent back then…. also, they needed a QB to replace Brodie…..didn’t happen until Montana got there in 79.
joemadParticipantI think that would be a great trade for the Giants.
A young hungry QB with that has not taken a pounding in the past 1 1/2 seasons for a QB that has thrown 40 interceptions and 11 fumbles the past 1 1/2 seasons…
Sam is what the RAMS have been missing this year, not Eli Manning.
Cap hit would also be bigger with Eli than with Sam, even before Sam re-structures his contract.

Rams AT Redskins compilation video
nice “share” on the game day experience. and those folks had some decent seats to witness a shut out.
joemadParticipantSome running QBs figure it out. Steve Young was too quick giving up plays and resorting to the run early in his career. Run-first type QBs need to become run-when-they-have-to type QBs. It worked out for Young.
I heard Young talk about this on his weekly segment on local SF radio. Sid Gillman tied Young’s legs with a rope to avoid Young from scrambling.
SY: Well, I was throwing the ball a lot (at BYU), so I had some concepts that were taught to me by (quarterbacks coach) Mike Holmgren in college. But I also ran around like crazy. Ironically, it was in the USFL with (Hall-of-Fame coach) Sid Gillman. People don’t remember that Sid Gillman was my coach. He was an old crotchety guy, but he was the first one to basically say, ‘You can’t just run around.’ … I remember, he literally tied my feet up. He got a rope and said ‘OK, you can’t go anywhere. What are you going to do? You can’t move. What’s your next plan?’ So that got me thinking about that.

joemadParticipantI don’t think Cusamano likes Sam Bradford……. I think Cosell likes Sam…..
“there’s a reason why Hill is a back up” “we had this same conversation last year about Clemmens, and where is he today”
joemadParticipantthis link has a vid on Burwell thoughts on Washington’s team name….
BTW, when Washington played SF a few weeks back in SC, there was protests out side the stadium.
Burwell a Washingtonian, and fan of the team, no longer used the team name.

joemadParticipantNot bad for a guy with a perfect career passer rating of 158.3
5 for 6 completions, 79 passing yards with 1 TD and no INTS…..
joemadParticipantI liked all the divisional games from 2012. I wasn’t sold on Bradford and Fisher at the beginning of 2012, but they ended up undefeated against the NFC west that year.
The game that sold me the most on Bradford and Fisher, wasn’t even a victory, it was the tie in SF… (Rams had 2 OT games against SF that year)
The Rams had a 3 game losing streak, just coming off a 45-7 loss to New England in the UK, and were facing a very good SF team with Alex Smith that just lost the NFC Championship the year before… there was no chance in hell that the RAMS would win….. they didn’t win, but they didn’t lose either.
Rams knocked Alex Smith out of San Fran and opened up the Kraperdick era.
Bradford and the RAMS played very tough that day in a pretty hostile environment, Bradford impressed me that game, tough as nails.
1st play in OT, Bradford hit Amendola with an 80 yard bomb that was nullified by a horrible offensive alignment penalty, the flag was dropped after crybaby Harbaugh lobbied the refs… turned out, the call was not correct.
Each team missed FGs in OT….
It was the only tie game that I have ever attended at any level of play.
December 4, 2014 at 11:40 pm in reply to: The fact that Rams seldom win in DC makes this a big game. #13031joemadParticipantThis was ugly. New Year’s Day massacre….They just beat Dallas in Texas the week before, then got killed in DC.
Those 80’s Rams teams rarely had playoff games at home.
The Redskins crushed the Rams by scoring on their first five possessions to build a 51–7 win, the largest margin of victory in any game in their team history.
Washington drove 65 yards in eight plays on their opening possession, including Joe Theismann’s 29-yard completion to Charlie Brown on third down and 5, while John Riggins rushing six times for 23 yards and scoring with a 3-yard touchdown run. Five minutes later, quarterback Joe Theismann threw a 40-yard touchdown to receiver Art Monk. An interception by Anthony Washington then set up kicker Mark Moseley’s 42-yard field goal with less than a minute left in the first quarter. Then early in the second period, Nick Giaquinto returned a punt 48 yards to set up a one-yard touchdown run by Riggins to give the Redskins a 24–0 lead with nearly 14 minutes left until halftime.
At this point, LA finally managed to response with Vince Ferragamo’s 32-yard touchdown pass to Preston Dennard, cutting the score to 24-7. But this was as close as it would get, as the Redskins added two more touchdowns before halftime, a 21-yard catch by Monk and a 1-yard plunge by Riggins.
Moseley’s two field goals were the only scoring in the third quarter. Then in the fourth quarter, defensive back Darrell Green intercepted Rams quarterback Vince Ferragamo’s pass after it bounced off running back Eric Dickerson and returned it 72 yards for a touchdown.
Riggins recorded 119 yards and three touchdowns. Theismann completed 18 out of 23 passes for 302 and two touchdowns with no interceptions. Brown caught 6 passes for 171 yards. Meanwhile, Ferragamo was limited to just 20 of 43 completions for 175 yards and a touchdown, with 3 interceptions. And Dickerson, who led the league in rushing during the regular season, was limited to only 16 yards on 10 carries, and 9 yards on 6 receptions.
joemadParticipantthese were pretty good
December 1, 2014 at 4:25 pm in reply to: controversy: a few fans dropping the Rams because of the WRs's Ferguson gesture #12806joemadParticipantHere’s my two cents.
Unless you own your own business or are retired, you work for someone, for an employer. That employer has rules of conduct when the employee is representing the organization. These players could have expressed their feelings on the subject privately, as Steadman Bailey, as Tavon Austin, etc… but they chose to do it publicly, while at work, as Saint Louis Rams. They should have run this past their boss, Coach Fisher, before doing it because this reflects on their employer and on the league. IMO, they were selfish and perhaps grandstanding by doing it during game introductions. If I were Fisher, I would chew their asses for not consulting him before doing it and privately apologize to the Saint Louis Police Association. This probably involves Stan Kroenke too as the owner of the business.
Did Kurt Warner ask for permission from DV and Georgia F. when he thanked Jesus after winning SB 34?
December 1, 2014 at 2:44 pm in reply to: controversy: a few fans dropping the Rams because of the WRs's Ferguson gesture #12790joemadParticipantGood to hear that the NFL did not fine the players, I hope the RAMS won’t fine nor suspend them either.
Folks need to remember, the police doesn’t “control” the RAMS, nor does the police “control” the NFL.
joemadParticipantThe main reason to worry about the Raiders next week is rookie free agent RB Latavius Murray, who has really turned around their running game the past couple of weeks. Conventional wisdom all year was that the Raider running game was at the bottom of the league because their line wasn’t getting the job done.
The Raiders are the best 1-11 team I’ve seen… they’re not the 1976 TB Bucs or 2009 Lions…., like you point out this is not a walk in the park of the RAMS.
Latavius Murray is 6’3″ (Dickerson size) and can run… had over 100 yards vs Chiefs on a sloppy field in the 1st 2 qtrs. of the game. (he was knocked out of game with concussion late in second qtr)
Rams had issues stopping the run in 2nd half vs Chargers. They need to contain this Murry kid.

BTW, On Christmas of 98, my wife when into labor with kid #2…. the bird was left unmanned on the grill and never made the dinner table.
for the past 4 years, we’ve brined it overnight before putting it on the grill.
Home made neck and giblet gravy (my own simplified Emeril Legasse recipe)
Garlic mashed potatoes
Smoked ham
Tossed green salad from the bag.
homemade stuffing with sausage, (not linguicia)
and of course, canned cranberry sauce with the indents from the can.
Kid #1 has been vegetarian for the past 4 years….any veggies ideas besides the bean and rice staple that you may have WV would be greatly appreciated.
BTW, Over the years, I created my mathematical cheat sheet below on grilling the perfect turkey, based on weight: I have found that a 12 lb turkery is the most optimal to brine and grill on the charcoal grill.
10 lbs = 120 min
11 lbs – 130.62 min
12 lbs = 141 min
13 lbs = 151.125 min
14 lbs = 161 min
15 lbs = 170.625
16 lbs = 180 minjoemadParticipantI look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

absolutely,
patience from the OC on running the ball….Tre Mason: 29 carries for 113 yards.
Denver only had 29 total rushing yards.
joemadParticipantRivers is playing hurt.
Bad ribs or some such thing. He’s a tough guy but if the Rams hit him and hit him?
Yes–the Rams CAN win this game.
But as a Rams fan I know that what you see this week may not look like next week. I HOPE they win. But I’m not making any bold prediction.
hurt his knee yesterday and was able to play through it….
I won’t be surprised if we see Clemens next week.
joemadParticipantI would not have drafted Tavon.
