Tavon Austin is starting to look like a completely blown pick.
I haven’t given up on him entirely, but he isn’t the contributor we thought we were getting after trading up to the #8 spot to draft him. He’s just a guy. Who apparently can’t get separation or break tackles. Which doesn’t bode well.
Yeah, I’m not happy about Tavon,
or Brockers for that matter.But in some ways i feel pretty
optimistic about this team.Its a weird combination of
talent and youth and boneheadness
and injury-proneness and mystery.Bottom line though — another
year of double-digit losses.
Hard to take. Year Three,
and another year of double-digit losses.Next year, if i am Kroenke,
Fisher HAS to win.w

Not to mention Hayes on defense.Nine more games.
O dear.
Two more wins?

vThis is 2011 redux.
BTW it Hayes is hurt, so is Westbrooks. That means they have 3 injured left DEs.
They have lost or currently have injured:
1 WR
2 QBs
3 OL
3 left DEs
2 free safeties
3 CBs, including one on IRBecause of shifts and replacements, that has an effect on:
CB1, CB2, FS, left DE, LOT, LOG, OC, ROG, WR, & QB.
10 positions.
I don’t know how many of the injured come back when so who knows about how long this will last.
3-4 positions with replacements? That’s just the NFL. Beyond that? It’s not the same team.
And the defense was a mess before all that.
I hope they can at least show some heart,
play with pride, be scrappy.Looks like another top six pick next year.
Maybe they trade down a bit and pick up
some O Linemen and LBs. Or maybe they
take a QB high. I dunno.I doubt if AustinD finishes the year
healthy.w
vKendricks: “We struggled all across the board. It was loud out there. We couldn’t get the signals out. We couldn’t get the personnel out. So the game wasn’t really flowing for us as it may have for them. But that’s on us. We’re professionals. We play ball, too. We have to be ready for that type of stuff. I just don’t think we were ready for everything they threw at us.”
Well, i didnt see the game yet
but that dont sound good.Looks like youth and injuries
played a big part. Ah well.w

Denver is a 9.5 favorite against the 5-2 Chargers.
Seattle 5 over Carolina
Arizona 2.5 over PhillySaints favored over Green Bay.
No-one seems to be picking the Rams this week.
Folks seem to think its the Same Ole Rams.
Sure would be nice if the Rams
took a giant leap forward.w
vI have to agree with LadyRamFan on this. I don’t see this show as an Islamaphobic show at all. I think it shows a lot of sympathy for Muslims and shows why some of them might turn to terrorism. Sure there are bad guys on both sides because that’s the way it is.
Gripping show.I’ve never seen it. But…the fact that the Clintons and Obama like it
makes me wary of it. 🙂w

“…The show is so popular that President Barack Obama himself is a big fan. Obama told People Magazine in December 2011 that “Homeland” was one of his favourite shows. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Obama “requested and received” four sets of “Homeland” Season 1 DVDs from Showtime (the Clintons, unsurprisingly, are also reportedly big fans)…”The Chiefs have 17 sacks. Their pass rush is not to be toyed with.
My guess, Rams lose 24-17.
Well, i dunno. If they are the SOSAR
then yeah.
If, by chance, something else
is emerging, then maybe not.I dunno.
They seemed awfully jittery early on
in Philly. It will be interesting
to see if they are ready for Kansas City.w
vFisher said the Chiefs will be the most
diverse running-game they will see,
“they’ll run power, they’ll run weakside lead,
and then one-back-stuff and then do read-option…
they attack the edges really good…”He also said the Chiefs are not
asking the QB to do much. They
would hand if off 45 times a game
if they could.w
