    49ers favored by 6.5.

    Rams are Largest underdog of the week,

    except for Washington. Bengals favored by 7.5.

    Just curious, anyone blame the Rams for these injuries?     Is it just bad luck, or are they doing something wrong?

    Anyone blame capitalism?

    Anyone blame zn ?

    49ers – 31

    Rams – 13

     

    Sigh.

    I am already thinking of next year.   Maybe biggest need is WR?   Team Doctor?

    Okay. I will bet you a tea bag that the Rams don’t end up in last place in the division. Deal?

    Abandon hope.

    I see you have no faith in the JV team.

    Well, I just think there is no coming back from this.  Its too much.    And i get that some of these guys will come back at different times, but the rhythm and timing aint gonna be there.

    And in the mean time Stafford is gonna get killed.

    And look at the final stretch.  Even if some guys are coming back….

    This is gonna be a last place team this year.  It just is.   Five wins, maybe?

    49ers, Bears, Packers, bye, Raiders,

    Vikes, Seahawks, Dolphins, Pats, Eagles,

    Saints, Bills, 49ers, Jets, Cards, Seahawks.

    I’m going to hazard a guess. My bet is that the highest ranking OLs at the moment don’t have major injuries combined with suspensions. In ARZ the Rams were on their 4th LOT. I can’t remember any time where a team did well playing its 4th LOT. I know you know this. But it never stops amazing me when some fans and some national reporters and analysts don’t account for that. It amazed me in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011, and 2022.

     

    Obviously, Stafford failed to elevate the team.

     

    Plus, fire the OC.

    I saw a blurb that said 176 NFL teams have started 0-3.

    Only 6 of those 176 teams have made the playoffs.

    Well, they dont need McCaffrey till playoff time.  I’d be surprised if they use him at all prior to game  10 or so.

    Not a fan of the liberal-comedy-sphere, but I didnt watch the debate, so I wondered how it went.   Watched some of this vid and got a libs’ sense of it.

    I only saw the 15 minute highlights on youtube, so, I dunno much.

    Looked like the DLine got handled by the Lion Oline.   Did it?

    Injuries.  Sigh.

    I think the Lions are a top-3 team.   Up there with the 49ers and Chiefs.    Rams have a chance to be a very good team.

    But of course, injuries could derail everything.   Duh.

    Lions injury report

    ==

    Week 1 injury report: Jahmyr Gibbs returns in full, just 3 Lions dealing with injuries

    https://www.prideofdetroit.com/2024/9/4/24235046/week-1-injury-report-jahmyr-gibbs-returns-in-full-just-3-lions-dealing-with-injuries
    <p id=”poV8cF”>Let’s take a look at the Lions’ first injury report of the 2024 season.</p>

    Injured reserve, Non-Football injury list

    • G Christian Mahogany (Illness, mono) — NFI list, eligible to return in Week 5
    • DT Brodric Martin (knee) — injured reserve, eligible to return in Week 5
    • DL John Cominsky (MCL) — injured reserve, eligible to return in Week 5
    • CB Emmanuel Moseley (pec) — injured reserve, eligible to return in Week 5

    Estimated no practice

    • S Loren Strickland (thumb)

    <p id=”GR8FG4″>Not much is known about Strickland’s injury at this time beyond the fact that he was also not practicing on Tuesday. Hopefully, we will learn more later this week when coach Dan Campbell speaks with the media on Friday.</p>

    Estimated limited practice

    <p id=”EkIhQl”>Reader has been projected to return to game action in Week 2 for a few weeks now, but on Wednesday, Campbell indicated there may be a chance the Lions prized free agent is ready to play this week.</p>
    <p id=”edt62N”>“So, yes, there’s still a chance,” Campbell said of Reader possibly playing this week. I’ll know more probably after tomorrow than I do right now. He’s doing well. He’s doing well.”</p>
    <p id=”LAvz0x”>Reader is not out of the woods yet but there are encouraging signs.</p>

    Brady is now an analyst.   But he’s also applied to be a part-Owner.    There’s a conflict.  NFL now sez he cant talk to players, coaches, etc, as an analyst.   And, he’s not allowed to criticize Refs.    Weird situation for a tv analyst.

    ..QB.. but WS just has more physical gifts than KW did. More experience too…as a Rams qb anyway, not counting Arizona.

    …PREDICTION: They will set the league on fire like a meat product of some kind in a large conflagration. You know, like a ribeye in the Chernobyl meltdown. 2025 draft: CB, ILB, OT.

     

    I dunno.   I was hoping they would start MS instead of WS.    But what do i know.

    Prediction:    I’m worried.   I’m always worried.  Its an RFL thing.

    . As of 8/27, there has been nothing to suggest Jones is an asshole, or that the Rams are doing a John Shaw thing.

     

    Dont be bringing up John Shaw.

    OK?

    Cuz I will raise your John Shaw with Jay Zygmunt.   I dont wanna go there, but i will.

    …Signing Williams is going to cost some other guys on the roster, though (next year). Bottom line is that the window is closing on this group, and a rebuild around Purdy is on the way. And they have a shaky OL heading into this season. For those of you who don’t know much about football, shaky OLs are not helpful.

    Yeah, they will be good as long as Lynch and Shan are running things, one would think, but their ‘elite’ status should end after this year.

    I just hope they jump out of this years window, gracefully.

    Like maybe blowing a 21 point lead in the playoffs to the Rams.   Ya know.

    Shannahan 50-1 against McV in the regular season

    0-2 in the Playoffs.    I could live with that.
