wvParticipant“the beginning of the end” — Dan Orlovsky on Joe Burrow remaining in Cincy
I do not wanna see Joe Burrow on the 49ers or Cardinals.
wvParticipantRichie Incognito news.
“In an interview with Bleacher Report that ran ahead of the 2016 election, Incognito explained why he was voting for Trump. “I think that he can help this nation get back to a world superpower. Where I think he could help is putting us first again and having that â it’s my mentality, too â having that tough attitude where you put America first and everyone’s thinking we’re the greatest nation in the world … That toughness is where I identify with him,” he related…”

—-I never really thought of this before, but Incognito and Trump do seem quite similar in a lot of ways.

vwvParticipantwvParticipantseahawks played them really well. only thing stopping the seahawks was sam darnold.
if rams somehow lose homefield advantage and have to play seahawks on the road i worry. their defense looked good and smith-njigba really hurt them.
I saw an interview with Mike Macdonald after the Darnold meltdown-game. And he was asked about Darnold and he kinda doubled-down on letting Sam just rip the ball all over the place. Sounded a bit like Martz.
I remember thinking, if it were ME, next time Sam played the Rams, I’d reign him in a bit. Just let him manage a short, safe, passing game, and try and win the game with the defense. But Macdonald seems like he wants to attack.
Should be interesting in Seattle.

vwvParticipantIâd say itâs still the kicking game.
… â and I believe they are better than the Lions, Packers, Pats, Broncos, what-have-you. I donât think they are going to coast to the SB, but I think they will be favored in every game in the post-season. You knowâŠbarring injury (same old disclaimer).
Better than the Packers? I dunno. What if they have to play in Lambeau?
I would have said the Rams were better until the Micah trade.Did you know, The Packers have beaten McVay and the rams 5 times in a row.

vwvParticipantInteresting numbers on the Rams and Lions since the QB trade.
wvParticipantWe are all Philip Rivers fans, this week. 44 year old grandfather.
wvParticipantI gotta say. Confess it.
Puka Nacua is working his way right up my list of all-time favorite Rams.
I think Jack Youngblood is #1 with me. ButâŠas Iâm thinking about itâŠas many guys as I have loved over the past 6 decadesâŠI love this guy, Puka Nacua. And I want to be clear that this isnât a list of the players I think are âthe greatestâ or something. Just guys I personally like.
And I just love Puka Nacua. He is a really special player. A really special human. He brings me happiness.

Yeah, ‘favorites’ are different from ‘best’.
Most of my favorites are from the old days. I think sometimes players make a bigger ’emotional’ impression on people when they are young.
For me, Roman, Jack Snow, and Merlin. 60s-70’s blue and white guyz.
Puka is special. Best Tight End the rams have ever had đ

wvParticipantRams are 5.5 point favorites against Detroit.
Seattle is a 13.5 point favorite over the Colts.

vwvParticipantAs of today, the Pats would host the Texans. I love that match-up. It would be the first time all year Drake Maye actually faced an elite defense.

wvParticipant44 year old ex-QB Philip Rivers worked out with the Colts Monday.

vwvParticipantEagles defense just mauled J.Herbert and that Charger OLine. Seven sacks, but it was worse than that. And Saquon goes for 120 yards. And AJ Brown gets 100 yards receiving.
And Herbert looked fragile with that hand injury.
And yet. Eagles 19 Chargers 22.

OTOH, though, KC was not well positioned defensively to take advantage of Houstonâs offensive mediocrity.
All the top favorite teams this yearâNew England, Denver, Houston, Green Bay, Seattleâhave top 10 defenses. The Rams are one of the top 6 favorites of course but are the only one of the 6 that doesnât quite have a top 10 defense (13th in yards) but close enough since theyâre 3rd in points.
I remember being a little disappointed in the way the Rams offense and Stafford performed in the Texan game but look at Mahommes stats:
160 yards, zero TDs, 3 INTs, 19.8 rating.Granted KC’s Oline was a MASH unit, but we all know OLines dont really matter.
w
vwvParticipantThat early season 14-9 win over the Texans looks pretty good right now. Houston has beaten the Ravens, Jags, 49ers, Bills, Colts, Chiefs…
Seattle beat them 27-19.
The play the Cardinals and Raiders next.
It would not shock me, if the Texans won the AFC.
w
vwvParticipantwvParticipant“top plays” week 14
wvParticipantWell that was a championship performance. I was expecting a close, ugly, division road win.
Bears lost, so i guess Rams regain the no.1 seed, for now.
At this point in the year, my first question is always: Was anyone injured?
w
vwvParticipantMan, Chris Simms was not pulling any punches on the Eagles offense issue. I dont know what to think, though. He could be right. But then, how is it that Jalen Hurts has looked awesome in two Super Bowls and various playoff games. And he looked awfully good torching the Rams in the second half of that game.
Ive kinda gone back and forth on this one. If i had to speculate though, I’d say the problem is more than just Hurts is limited in some way.

Cards have lost 7 games by 3 points or less.

vwvParticipantNick Sirianni doesnât want a lot of motion or condensed formations. The route concepts are more elementary than they were last season, but they werenât advanced algebra in 2024, either.
The issues start fundamentally at the top. And this is a brain trust that doesnât seem to like a lot of the things that make modern passing games⊠well, modern.
Maybe they are experimenting with the old JH offense. (Jeff Fisher high-school offense.)

vwvParticipantDid the Lions have any injuries last night against Dalls?
—-
A.I.Yes, the
Detroit Lions had a significant injury during their win over the Dallas Cowboys last night (Thursday, Dec 4, 2025), with star safety Brian Branch being carted off with an ankle injury, adding to existing absences like Kerby Joseph and Kalif Raymond, and rookie safety Thomas Harper also left with a brain injury early in the game, according to Yahoo Sports and Pride Of Detroit. -
