ParticipantYou always were a bit conservative on your thinking—I like the Rams 73-3 score—but “maryjanewatson” IS a little overboard with the Bucs getting that FG.
Well, usually i am in accord with maryJane
but in this case i’m gonna just say no.w

6-3 Rams. Everyone remembers the 1999 Bears but is upset to see the Buccaneers on the losing end of a god awful game.6-3 Rams is still my call.
==========================Hmmm. I suppose they could score six on the road,
with their third string QB,
but I dunno know.
I think I’m going with:Rams 5

ParticipantI don’t know what’s more disturbing—the punch itself, or the way he just casually drags her body around afterward–like it’s a bag of potatoes or something.
That is a very disturbed dude and the NFL is better off without him—actually society is better off without him.
Domestic violence is full of strange, human, currents.
Think about the fact that the lady
is going to marry him…and think about
why that would be…etc.Anyway, Goodell is a corporate-suit. He
was out of his league on this one.w
vwv
ParticipantI still believe we can do a complete 180 turn around….but I am also perplexed at the lack of readiness of this team.
The defense looked ready to me.

ParticipantThat’s a very solid take IMO. It’s basically what I saw. This was a tough close game punctuated the wrong way by Rams mistakes. The 2nd half? They sent in an inexperienced 3rd qb to take over with the team behind. That;s what happens when you do that.
Yeah, this is a dangerous team on Defense. With the QB situation
being the way it is, it could be a very long year,
and the D is gonna get worn down…and thats too bad,
cause they would be fun to watch if the O was even average.I thought Norv called a good game, btw. I got
no complaints about him.w

ParticipantThe corp. takes care of its image. That is most important. It is ok to lie or be wrong, but don’t embarrass me.
The corporate-PR suits will also work the other side
of things — they will consult with Ray Rice and he will
be magically transformed and redeemed ala, Greg Williams, M.Vick, etc,
in a year or two.w

ParticipantWell, I’m not sure Los Angeles
is gonna want’em either.w
vwv
ParticipantI see it prettymuch the way zack sees it, RFL.
I was very impressed with the defense in the first half.
I got no worries at all about the defense (though, if Chris Long cant play,
I dunno how that will effect things)The offense? I think Hill was fine when he had time to throw.
I think the RBs were fine. I think Cook and Quick were good.My only 2 questions are 1) whether there are weak links on the OLine
or whether it just needs time to ‘gel.’
And 2) whether BS has lost faith in Tavon. BS doesnt seem
to want to send him downfield to catch passes. Maybe its cause
he drops them in practice, I dunno.And of course there were plenty of dum penalties,
but I dunno what to think of that. That aint
sposed to happen at home.Next year, they will draft OLinemen and
a QB, I would think.w
vwv
ParticipantI noticed during the rewind of the first half
Hill seemed a tad gimpy. Just a hint of a limp.
The quad injury seems the most likely explanation
for his being replaced.w

ParticipantWell, its good that Goodell is learning about domestic
violence, but Maybe he should be required to take a class
er somethin.The ubiquity of cameras is changing
a lot of things in this country, btw.w
vwv
ParticipantI thought the Minnesota game was the “easy” one among the first ten games. And they got crushed. I honestly believe that they have a real shot at an 0-10 start and I believe it has a real chance to get real ugly along the way. I guess if I see something positive, it’s that the Rams might find themselves in the Jameis Winston sweepstakes. Of course, if Winston thinks he might be sentenced to a career in St. Louis, he might just stay in college.
Well, i think they could win a lot of games
if the OLine hold up, and Roman Gabriel
comes out of retirement.Two big Ifs,
i know.w
vwv
Participantwell rams need to draft a qb next year. high.
outside of hill they have nothing now. that’s a scary thought.
i see the offensive line improving. the running backs and wide receivers are in good shape. but they need a qb. long-term.
At this point, I’d be willing to watch
Tim Tebow in horns. If nothing else
they might gain some rushing yards.w
vwv
ParticipantWell, itz a crazy-zany idea, but
it would be nice if the Rams
offense could score some points.
That would be one way of helping
the defense.w

vSeptember 5, 2014 at 5:37 pm in reply to: how much you want to bet that Stacy is actually better than Cunningham #6189wv
ParticipantWell, I dunno much about Cunningham
since he was running-hurt last year
but I think Stacy is an unusual
combination of low-to-the-ground-power,
and great vision. Emmitt Smith comes to mind.w

ParticipantI wanna see ram defenders
launch themselves into Joe Kapp’s
groin,
when he tries to hurdle them
on third and long.w

ParticipantFewer penalties, fewer turnovers.
Pick apart the vikes secondary. Britt and Quick should have good days.
Cassel is the weak link. Patterson and Jennings could hurt us, but they depend on Cassel, and he’s the weak link.
Stop Peterson. Their whole offense revolves around him.
Cassel is an interesting player. He had
one really good year and the rest have
been just ‘decent’.I love it when the Rams play
a team with a non-mobile-QB.Cassel is an ok QB, but if they cant beat the
Vikes at home…well…

Obviously they would not extend his contract,

the fifteen million (or whatever it is) next year — yes? no?w

ParticipantWell, Trevino also said:
“You can talk to a fade but a hook won’t listen.”I dunno what that means, but the point is,
yes, Britt and Quick (and Stedman) are the
guys who are gonna have to make that
critical medium passing game work.Is this the year we finally see
an effective medium passing game?w
