    After all these years, i still enjoy bad news for the Cowboys.

    Rico Dowdle, who gained over 100 yards in 4 of the Cowboys last 6 games in 2024, and who gained over 1000 yards for Dallas — was released. And now he goes and gets over 230 yards from scrimmage two games in a row, including Sunday against Dallas.

    After all this time, apparently, i still hate Dallas. Staubach did this to me.

    … i don’t know what’s wrong with the kicking game. i don’t know if it’s karty or the unit as a whole. i just hope it gets fixed.

    Its gotta be infuriating McVay.

    Especially since there are so many kickers in the NFL now, who are making 60 yard FGs look routine.

    “…The Los Angeles Rams defeated the Baltimore Ravens in week six action. Here are five observations from the game.
    1. Matthew Stafford is playing at an MVP level…”

    If you compare Goff and Stafford this year, they are pretty similar.
    Goff has 12 TDs and 2 INTs. Stafford has 11 and 2, for example.

    Ugly ugly win. Puka injured. 240 yards total offense. Special teams: WTF?

    Loved the play where Verse showed up out of nowhere and blasted the ball-carrier.

    Road win. I aint never complaining over a road win.

    ———-

    The Ravens continued to get healthier Thursday, as two Pro Bowl players returned to practice.

    Cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) practiced for the first time this week, while fullback Patrick Ricard (calf) returned for the first time since Aug. 14.

    Quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring), linebacker Roquan Smith (hamstring), and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (hamstring) remained sidelined on Thursday after not playing against the Texans. Offensive lineman Ben Cleveland was the only new absence.

    Humphrey’s presence would be a major boost to Baltimore’s secondary, which will face the high-powered Los Angeles Rams on Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium.

    I get people are mad at Kyren Williams. He’s mad at himself.

    But he ranks…

    – 6th among NFL RBs in rushing success (TruMedia)
    – 6th in 1st Down rate (TruMedia)

    While also 5th in carries.

    Add in 3rd-down work and he can be a staple.

    With one big IF…

    Can you win a Ring with a fumbler as your ‘staple’?

    To win a ring a team has to win the turnover battle for what, 3 or 4 games in a row through the playoff run. All it takes is one fumble to lose one of those games.

    Thats why i never got into the Eric Dickerson love.

    At any rate, it seems like teams are getting better at punching out footballs. The technique has been fine tuned, i think.

    Man, Baker Mayfield beats the Seahawks with another comeback.

    The Bucs are good. Mayfield at times reminds me of Stafford.

    And i see the Cards lost to the Titans.

    I watched the Eagles Broncos highlights. Man, neither OLine was holding up very well. But the Broncos did just a little bit better.

    The media will now crown the Lions.

    NFL analyst Mark Sanchez arrested while he was hospitalized with stab wounds
    October 4, 2025

    https://apnews.com/article/nfl-mark-sanchez-stabbing-indianapolis-fe93421fad3b8a057835e13399fbda86?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us

    INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Former NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports analyst Mark Sanchez was arrested Saturday after he was apparently stabbed in an overnight altercation in downtown Indianapolis.

    Sanchez, who was in Indianapolis to call Sunday’s Raiders-Colts game, was charged with battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and public intoxication — all misdemeanors.

    Indianapolis police said Sanchez was in a hospital and had not been booked into a detention center. He was in stable condition, according to Fox Sports.

    Police said the Marion County prosecutor’s office would make the final charging decision. That office didn’t immediately respond to an inquiry from The Associated Press.

    Indianapolis police said earlier in the day that they were investigating a confrontation that occurred around 12:30 a.m. Saturday between two men, one of whom was hospitalized with stab wounds. The other man received treatment for lacerations, police said.

    1989 vs SF MNF

    That loss was worse.

    The Rams fumbled on the goal line, missed an FG, allowed two 80+ yard TD passes and blew a 17 point lead in Anaheim.

    That loss cost the RAMS HFA in the 1989 playoffs resulting in the phantom sack in Candlestick that spiraled the Rams into 1990’s oblivion and off to STL.

    Yeah, i remember that one. Its in the top ten for sure, but the 49ers didnt go into that game crippled, missing stars, with a backup QB.
    And this game might well cost the Rams HFA down the road, too.

    My second reaction is to note that, that loss was one of, if not THE worse regular season loss in Rams history.

    Seriously. Name a worse one.

    I say that because of the 49er injuries. Shannahan should NOT have been able to win that game. A BACKUP QB?? Are you kidding me. No first string WRs. No BOSA. Etc.

    I’m still in shock.

    I will also note once again that K.Williams is a fumbler. If I’m not mistaken he has more fumbles over the last two years than any other player.
    And i dont know if you can win a super bowl with a talented-fumbler.

    What a loss. I hope they dont have to face a backup QB against Baltimore.

    Rams 31
    49ers 15

    Rams will score a safety, and return a fumble for a TD.

    The Rams will chew Shannahan’s mushy team like a Tapir chews a soft banana.

    And Christian Mccaffrey will leave the game with a concussion. Or a pulled groin.

    I think of him more as a land-based orca with legs. And arms. In human form. You know what I mean.

    .

    Anquon the Bold was an Orca. Puka is a hybrid. A lion-Orca perhaps. Or a hyena-centaur. I’m not sure.

    Yeah, the Cossell/Tucker discussion about Puka is exactly what i was alluding to. Its fascinating to see a WR(if thats what we wanna call him) be so successful, and yet not really have a classic WR skill-set like say, Devante or Torry Holt, etc.

    I almost wanna call Puka a different name. Not a WR. A hybrid. Or somethin. I dunno.

    Rams favored by 7.5 now, because of the SF injuries.

    I dont remember the last time the Rams were favored by that much against SF.

    AI Overview

    In 1950, after dominant wins over the Colts and Lions, the Los Angeles Rams were favored to beat the San Francisco 49ers by 20 points, but the 49ers ultimately only lost by a touchdown
    .
    The context provided describes the Los Angeles Rams’ season in 1950:

    The scores: The Rams beat the Baltimore Colts 70–21 and the Detroit Lions 65–24 in back-to-back weeks.

    The matchup: They then faced the San Francisco 49ers and were favored by 20 points, according to a historical account of the rivalry.

    The outcome: Despite the Rams’ powerful offense, the 49ers played a very physical game and held Los Angeles to 28 points, losing by a score of 28–21.

    The Ravens were heavy favorites over the Texans. Lamar got hurt (might miss the Ram game) and the betting spread shifted NINE points. Texans now favored.

    I dont think i ever remember a spread shift that much because of one injury.

    Saw a ‘First Things First’ vid where Nick Wright was talking about the Cohen vs Saleh flare-up. The issue involved sign stealing.

    Wright mentioned that Cohen was part of the McVay branch and Saleh was part of the Shannahan branch.

    And that part of the background to the flare-up was that McVay-branch folks are known to be good at figuring out other teams signs.
