    Whats going on with Snead’s black shirt, there? Is that a Rams logo on it? Cause i can barely see it. Is his shirt inside-out or something? Someone explain this.

    I believe only the Bears have a comparable 1-2 punch at RB.

    K.Williams: 1030 yds. 4.9 yds per rush. (8th in yds.)
    B.Corum: 621 yds. 5.5 yds per rush. (28th in yds.)

    I just wanna say one more thing. In all my years, I had never heard the term: piss missile.

    I am still not sure what makes a pass, a ‘piss missile.’

    More of a line drive is what i would have thought.

    Three more games. What I’m wondering, and i havent seen anyone talk about this — If the Rams and Seahawks are tied, at say, 13-4 (a distinct possibility) — who wins the division? Last year both teams tied, and the Rams got the nod.

    Lots of interesting scenarios could come into play. Like, say, what if the last game — Seattle v SF — what if the 49ers have nothing to play for in that game? They might have locked up a wildcard and a win wouldnt really change anything.

    Rams: at Seattle, at Atlanta, Home for Cardinals

    Seattle: Hosts Rams, At Carolina, At San Francisco

    49ers: At Indy, Home for Bears, Home for Seattle.

    Jourdan Rodrique and others. They noted that Colby Parkinson ran down Aiden Hutchinson on the INT.

    do you know at what time they said that? i was looking for it but couldn’t find it.

    The very beginning of the Rams/Lions segment. About the 36 minute mark. They noted Aiden Hutchenson ran 18 mph and Colby was going 20.

    And, btw, I think that is the loudest I have ever heard SoFi for the Rams.

    Well, it will be louder if they host SanFran or Green Bay in the playoffs; Stafford will have to use a silent count 🙂

    Most of my favorites are from the old days. I think sometimes players make a bigger ’emotional’ impression on people when they are young.

    i think that’s it. when i watch him play it makes me feel like i did the first time i watched the rams and fell in love with this team.

    Well, he’s definitely a throw-back. An old-school 70’s kindof receiver. Tough as nails, fearless, reckless. “A rolling ball of butcher knives”. Charley Taylor, Andre Reed come to mind.

    As of now, numbers 1 and 2 : Seattle’s JSN 1541 yards in 14 games. Puka 1367 in 13 games.

    Greatest Show on Surf.

    I forget who coined that monicker for the Rams in 2018, but I like it and it’s even more appropriate today.

    I like it too. But I’m just not sure this offense deserves a name like that. Ya know. To compare it to that original GSOT. I dunno.

    This is a topnotch offense when everyone is healthy (Adams).

    But…Faulk, Ike, Holt, Kurt, Hakim, Conwell.

    Stafford, Puka, Davante, Kyren, Corum, Higby, Parkinson, Tutu.

    I dunno.

    Lots of big plays in that game. Too many to remember, but the one that tickled me the most was the little Tutu catch on the sideline.

    Its not Little Tutu’s role to be making little catches like that, but that was memorable.

    Lions fans are apoplectic, incensed and horn-mad.

    The Rams had like, one penalty the whole game, and it came with about 2 minutes left, and then there was the Parkinson catch/not-catch – TD/Not-TD.

    Philip Rivers looked wily and crafty, but also weak-armed and shot. Still, he got the ball out so fast it frustrated the Seahawks. Almost had em.

    That Big dum game-losing penalty on the Panthers at the end might cost them the division.

    Well, two good teams out there. Fairly evenly matched. Rams are a little better.
    Lions were a little better the last two years, I thought.

    I was worried Davante’s hamstring was gonna pop. That will be a huge loss, obviously.
    Maybe he can be back by the playoffs, but he will be fragile even if he comes back. Sigh.

    The OLine was really tested by that Lion rush. The held up purty good.

    Snead gets the game ball as far as I’m concerned. This is a complete team. Lots of good personnel decisions over the last three years.

    It won’t be completely universal–there will still be some who, even after all these year, remain unable to get over the Bettis trade.

    But mostly things would be pretty good.

    …

    All true, but there will also be no peace for the Patriots.

    You had to bring up the Bettis trade.

    Well, it worked out for both teams, as the Rams ended up with Lawrence Phillips.

    The Details:

    When: April 20, 1996, during the NFL Draft.
    From: St. Louis Rams.
    To: Pittsburgh Steelers.
    What the Steelers Received: Jerome Bettis and a 1996 third-round pick.
    What the Rams Received: The Steelers’ 1996 second-round pick and their 1997 fourth-round pick.

    Why it Happened:

    Rams’ Perspective: St. Louis wanted to shift to a pass-heavy offense and drafted running back Lawrence Phillips, viewing Bettis as expendable, despite Bettis’s power running style.

    Steelers’ Perspective: Pittsburgh saw an opportunity to get a dominant, power-running back who was a perfect fit for their system, building a tough, physical identity.

    Didn’t know Sofi was so bad. No excuse for it, given the five billion price tag, especially. For that kind of money, you’d think they could go full Mars terraforming.

    If the players were smart, they’d say No grass fields? No play. And, again, drop back to 14 games, and no more Thursdays.

    The players have more power than they seem to realize. They haven’t made the most of that, IMO.

    Amen.

    A rather large game, today. Imagine if they lose it. They will be underdogs in Seattle, I’m sure. If they lost that one, too, they’d be 10-5 and probably behind Detroit for the last playoff spot. And even if they squeak in as a 7th seed they’d end up having to play in Lambeau or Seattle, etc.

    Big game.

    I am picking the Rams to win a tie.

    I think J.Gibbs will have 175 yards from scrimmage.

    Landman will force 2 fumbles.

    Rams 42
    Lions 42.

    Nick Wright is an idiot to believe that Detroit would be SB Champs if the Stafford / Goff trade wasn’t made.

    Well, Wright has always loved Stafford; I dont think he’s wrong in thinking that if Stafford had played with Dan Campbell, the Lions ‘might’ have won a ring.

    I see the Falcons beat the Bucs thursday night. I’m ok with that, because I want the Panthers to make the playoffs.

    I believe the Rams would like another shot at Carolina.
