    On the macro-level that was a huge win against a team the Rams might very well need a head-to-head edge against. If the Eagles win their division and the Rams end up a wild card, it wont matter, BUT, as of right now — guess who is leading the NFC East.

    Giants 3-1
    Eagles 2-2
    Dallas 2-2

    CeeDee Lamb had 17 receptions today against the Houston Texan defense. 189 yards.

    Texans 0-4.

    Kenneth Walker had 177 yards on 22 carries for the Chiefs. Walker is now on pace for a gazillion yards.

    The stats make it seem like the Rams dominated.

    Total yards: Rams 415, Eagles 172
    3rd down conv: Rams 7/16, Eagles 0/12
    Passing yards: Rams 309, Eagles 68.
    1st downs: Rams 26, Eagles 12.
    Sacks allowed: Rams 1, Eagles 4.

    And on, and on.

    And yet…there was what we actually watched. On the field.

    I dunno. Hertz looked worse than Jameis Winston, if thats possible.

    Maybe it was just two really bad teams out there.

    What the Fuk was that??

    They played better in all their losses to the Eagles this decade.

    What the fuk was that?!

    I am supposed to know what this team is after four games. What are they?

    Daniel Jones with one of the most ridiculous fumbles of the decade. Geez. Some really bad QB play so far this year.

    “The Eagles will be without star right tackle Lane Johnson on Sunday against the Rams.”

    Wow. That is huge.

    Does it seem like there are more injuries than ever this year, or is that just my dystopian-imagination?

    “In terms of the snap count, that’s the thing that we have to be willing to navigate,” McVay told reporters Thursday. “But we’ve got confidence in some other guys that have played meaningful snaps in his absence.

    “But he does look good. He looks strong, and he looks ready to go.”

    Sigh. Groins are precarious. Like backs.

    I suspect Nacua is going to give 110 percent of 70 percent for much of the year.

    Course, one-third of those stats are part of the enigmatic ‘australia triangle,’ where offenses and defenses often disappear, and dicey Shanahanigans occur.

    I think this game is the most significant of the first four games. The Australia puzzle. The Giants back-up QB. Denver was full of info both good and bad. I just think this game will tell us a lot. On the road. Syriani has owned McVay. Both teams need it. Both teams wounded. Stafford coming off a pick6 jaw-dropper.

    A strange thing happened in MLB this year. Of the 8 teams in the playoffs, THREE are in what-i-call the bottom tier. (20-30). The Cleveland Guardians (when did they change their name?) are LAST, with a 79 million dollar payroll. Dodgers are first, spending 380 million on players.

    Interesting.

    I still maintain its a ridiculous league. The Guardians cannot ‘maintain’ a good team, year after year, with that payroll. The top-tier teams can just roll out super-teams year after year.

    Still, the Guardians deserve a ton of credit. Their top players will all be poached by other teams now.

    Top Tier
    Dodgers 1st
    Yankees 3rd
    Braves 6th
    Padres 9th

    Mid Tier
    Brewers 19th

    Bottom Tier
    Rays 23rd
    White Sox 26th
    Clev.Guardians 30th

    From the vid above.

    Seahawks got pressure 35.6 percent of the time (3rd )

    They blitzed only 21.4 percent of the time. ( 25th)

    “No other team has done that in modern history”

    Seahawks also doubled the average NFL number of times they rushed only 4, but one of the 4 was not a lineman. (‘SIM’ pressure.) Ie., dropping a lineman into coverage and rushing a CB/S/LB.

    • Israeli Military Quadcopters: Documented reports from human rights organizations like the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor and news outlets such as Al Jazeera and Middle East Eye revealed that small quadcopter drones equipped with loudspeakers have been used in areas like Gaza and southern Lebanon.

    • Psychological Warfare and Tactics: The drones broadcast simulated distress sounds—including crying infants, women screaming for help, barking dogs, and fake gunfire—late at night.

    • Luring and Targeting: According to local testimonies gathered by agencies like the Euro-Med Monitor, the audio is used to disorient residents, cause psychological terror, and exploit natural instincts to provide help, drawing civilians out into the open where they have been targeted or fired upon by snipers and drones.

    Rams cut the X Man …. practice squad guy to field punts……

    Rams waive wide receiver Xavier Smith; wide receiver Alex Bachman expected to step into punt returner role.”

    Good. I had given up on them making this move, but its overdue.

    Sean McVay told reporters that Aaron Donald and Terrance Ferguson have both been ruled out this week. Jaylen Watson is also out, as expected.

    Rams will certainly be shorthanded on Sunday.

    Damn.

    Jaylen Carter, the Eagles great DLineman may have a wrist issue according to Rodrigue.

    Bubba Ventrone said Xavier Smith has been “inconsistent” in the return game thru 3 weeks. “We need to do a better job of tracking the ball, judging the ball, fielding the ball.”

    Sigh. That is what training camp and preseason is for.

    I’m starting to think its just impossible for the Rams to find topnotch special teams players.

    On the Eagles: Through the first three games of the 2026 NFL regular season, the defense has recorded ZERO takeaways. This marks a dubious milestone, as it is the first time in the 93-year history of the franchise that the Eagles have failed to force a turnover through the first three weeks of a season

    Saquon is 19th in rushing yards so far. 174 yards. But, he only has 34 attempts, so his average is 5.1 yards per carry.

    Kyren is 9th in rushing yards with 214 yds. 38 attempts. 5.6 yards per carry.

    Kenneth Walker leads the NFL with 360 yards. 5.5 yard average.

    3 games doesnt mean shit, though. 4 games is everything 🙂
