    Damn. Hate to see someone lose their job like that, but special teams has been the weak link.

    I don’t agree that the kicking game is a problem.

    I still think Mevis is okay. One miss is just something that happens…too soon to think kicking is a problem, IMO. It was the TD on a punt return that causes worry.

    Basically STs lost them 3 games this year. After much thought and cold hard analysis, I have decided that my fully considered view of that is, that ain’t good.

    Did you see the vid where one of the Seattle players talked about seeing a weakness on the Rams punt coverage team, and they capitalized on it. He said something about working on taking the return to the left or somethin like that.

    That little Kirk Cousins vid was great, i thought. It just highlights how F’ing hard it is to play QB. And then there’s guys like Brady or Stafford who, at times, make it look easy.

    The seattle-sports-media and the mainstream-sports-media are all over the place on what to say about Darnold. How do you characterize his performance last night? There are talking-heads saying he proved he can be a clutch QB, by that performance.

    2 TDs, 2 INTs, 4 sacks, 84 rating. 22/34 270 yards. And a lateral for 2 points.

    I dunno. I’m not sure what he proved last night. I guess he proved he can keep grinding away and not give up. Thats somethin.

    Ernest Jones does not like the Rams, btw.

    I think Puka is amazing as a player, but that kid is an accident waiting to happen, in the real world. His emotions are gonna get the better of him someday off the gridiron.

    The Rams had 581 yards of offense, the most in the NFL this season and their most since 2000, per ESPN Research.

    LA is the first team in NFL history to record 500 yards of offense, have a +3 turnover margin or better and lose. Teams were 93-0 in those games entering Thursday.

    Seahawks are just unique in weird ways. The Rams needed FOUR INTs to beat them by two points last time. This time they get THREE INTS and lose by one point.

    I thought the Seahawks had a slightly better team after they lost the first game.
    This time, i thought the Rams were a slightly better team after they lost this game.
    Sigh.

    In the first game, Stafford had, like, 130 yards passing. Over 450 yards this time. Who does that against Seattle in Seattle? 3 TDs, no INTs, and a 110 rating — and they lose.

    Both games were weird and both teams are evenly matched in weirdly different ways.

    Big loss, but it is what it is. The Rams will be in Chicago, or Lambeau or philly or Tampa or Carolina. Perhaps another game in Seattle down the road.

    Why does this feel like a playoff loss?

    I believe the Rams will win this game. I have the same level of certainty I had in ’99. Not that that means anything, but just a reflection of my confidence in this team…

    I think Seattle at home is a beast.

    When they played in LA, Stafford had a 53 percent completion rate. 15 for 28.
    Threw for 130 yards. That’s ten more yards than Philip Rivers threw for last week.

    This is a lot like Darnold’s big game last year. The Vikings were 14-2. The Lions were 15-1. Whoever won, was going to get the bye and no.1 seed. The loser would drop down to road-hell through the playoffs. Of course Darnold melted down.

    But that game was in Detroit.

    I think Seattle and the Rams are 1A and 1B. I think they are equal. Seattle has a great D. Rams have a great O. If it were in LA, I’d pick LA. In Seattle, I think it will be Seattle.

    So, what do we expect out of Sam Darnold?
    Will the Seattle plan be dink and dunk and avoid INTs, or will it be let-it-rip against this rams secondary and try and get some big plays?

    The 7-7 Ravens are three point favorites over the Patriots this week.

    That makes no sense to me.

    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 🙂
