wvParticipantI listen to this game on Rams’ radio today…
JB Long, Maurice Jones Drew, and DeMarco Farr made this a very memorable game…
They ripped special teams…,.
I suppose the special teams play was better than last year. I guess.
wvParticipantI would think that several people told Puka to get his shit together and grow up, or he was going to lose $100 million. Sounded to me like a guy who took that to heart, and grew three sizes that day.
Well, it just seems so…real. Seems like an actual change. As opposed to
the usual bullshit-PR-fake-change we see on a weekly basis all over this fine beacon of freedom and justice.—

Rams defense [was] bringing all kinds of cool heat on third downs
—As for Rodrigue’s comment, i hope someone posts the blitz rate in this game. It seemed to me Chris Shula blitzed more in this game than he ever has in any game as a rams coach. I for one was glad to see it.
It will be interesting to see how they play Josh Allen.

vwvParticipantYeah, if you showed me the final box score (from the future) before kickoff, I woulda thought that the Rams just rolled them. It was all the mistakes. Lots and lots of mistakes. Penalties. Drops. Bad throws. But excellent defense, and when the rain stopped, Stafford did his thing.
According to the Prime Directive I’m forbidden from showing you boxscores from the future. God knows what you would do with them.
Stafford, as we in the future know, is a gunslinger, and will always be bold and take chances and there’s gonna be some INTs. And we know he has a history of streaky-ness.
But all i can say is, for whatever reason, he is not in one of his hot-streak-zones. He’s just not looking like he’s ‘in the zone’ at all. I’m not ‘worried’ about him, but I am hoping it comes together sooner for him, rather than later.The offense in general just doesn’t seem smooth. Not against Shannahan. Not against Payton. And not against Syriani. I dont think this is McVay’s best coaching year. So far.
w
vwvParticipantPuka certainly seems different this year. Less bubbly-goofy-effervescent. I dunno if thats a good thing or not. He sounds more like Davante than Puka.
w
vwvParticipantI can lip read. McVay says: “They’re Celebrating over there!”
w
vwvParticipantSo we are down to two undefeated teams, i think. 49ers and Chiefs. Neither of them seems all that dominant to me, at least in the long-term. I think Purdy will cool off a bit, and i assume the 49ers will continue to lose players. And I dont think Kenneth Walker can continue to tear up the league the way he has so far.
I think things could still break the Rams way, IF Myles Garrett comes back and plays like Myles Garrett.
Though, I think a more ‘likely’ scenario is that this is just a Martz-year of miscues, sloppiness, and self-inflicted wounds.
This team could end up being quite frustrating.
w
vwvParticipantOn 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 2-2w
vwvParticipantEagles outscored 31 to zero in second half over last two games.
wvParticipantwvParticipantCeeDee 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.
w
vwvParticipantThe 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.
w
vwvParticipantWhat 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?
w
vwvParticipantDaniel Jones with one of the most ridiculous fumbles of the decade. Geez. Some really bad QB play so far this year.
wvParticipant“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?
w
vwvParticipant“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.
w
vwvParticipantCourse, 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.

vwvParticipantextraneous information
wvParticipantDid Ben Johnson invent a new play? I dont ever remember seeing anything like this.
wvParticipantA 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 9thMid Tier
Brewers 19thBottom Tier
Rays 23rd
White Sox 26th
Clev.Guardians 30thwvParticipantFrom 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.
w
vwvParticipant490, Cannae, McVay, McDonald…the famous Chief/Ram game…
wvParticipantI enjoyed this. Also…Electric Football !!
“…the benefit of the fullback is…the passing game”
w
vwvParticipantJust gets better and better…
A.I.
• 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.
wvParticipantRams 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.
w
vwvParticipantCameron DaSilva@camdasilva
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.
w
vwvParticipantEagles no.1 WR, probly not playing.
DeVonta Smith has hamstring problem.
Rams now 3 point favorite.
w
vwvParticipantRodrigue, Rosenthal.
“One-sided rivalry”
wvParticipantRogers and McCarthy “fucking asshole”
wvParticipantChinese movie.
wvParticipantCalculations.
Its not just concussions.
