Jerry Jones, threatens to take a radio hosts job away from him. Shannon Sharpe reacts.
wvParticipant“that team is a Ferrari with mud tires”
wvParticipant“…the Rams are playing a morbid version of whack-a-mole — flailing at any one problem in any one week, all while sinking deeper.”
Indeed.

wvParticipantWell, as bad as they are right now, I must say, I’m pleased with how hard they have fought in all these games, except the one. I really dont know how or why 4 of the 5 games have been so close.
They do have a lot of spirit and toughness.
I get the impression Stafford is getting frustrated, with the pressure and lack of topnotch-weapons. Pressure and lack-of weapons. Not a good combo.
To go from Kupp, Nacua, Higby to this….mediocre/young WR/TE crew has to be frustrating.
Stafford has always been a gunslinger, but when he ‘presses’ it can be problematic, to state the obvious.
And this is a recipe for a pocket QB to press, and, to get hurt.
As bad as the record is (and will be) there are plenty of good pieces on this team. This year was always gonna be about health. Sigh.
Oct 20 – Raiders
Oct 24 – Vikings.
Nov 3 – Seahawks.

October 3, 2024 at 6:02 pm in reply to: upcoming Packers game w/ broadcast map (game is basically national) #152516wvParticipantRams vs Packers at about 1:04 mark.
wvParticipantJared Verse covered in the vid.
wvParticipantBoth the lions and the seahawks looked electric and exciting, but kinda flawed too. (I know Seattle was without its top 4 Dlinemen)
I dunno if there’s a great team in the NFC this year.
Lotta contenders in the NFC.

wvParticipantNo.1 in pressure rate, and no 31 in opponent QB rating?
Has ‘that’ ever happened in NFL history?

wvParticipantIts not the 1 and 3 that ends the season, its the 1 and 3 and the injuries.
They fought hard, but this is exactly what happens when you play a really good defense, on the road without Higby, Kupp and Nacua, etc. People dont say much about Higby but its a big loss.
Defense apparently played decent, but the Bears offense is a joke so i expected that.
I hate to see Stafford ‘wasted’ like this. Ah well.
I watched a vid of the Packers almost coming back from a 28 point deficit. This could get very ugly. I dont think the Rams offense can match what the Packers offense is going to do.
1-5 before the bye.

wvParticipantBears lead series 54-39-3
First game was Cleveland Rams 2 – Chicago Bears 20, in 1937
First game of the LA Rams vs Chicago was in 1946 and ended in a 28-28 tie.
As ive said many times, my first realization that the Rams existed was on 12/8/68. On a black and white tv, at my grandmother’s house. Rams vs Bears. Fearsome Foursome. Gabriel. Brian Piccollo. Rams 16 – Bears 17. Bears have scared me ever since.

wvParticipantThis is a weird game. I dont really have a feel for it.
But….I just cant get past the injuries. Too many key injuries. And its on the road.
Granted, the Bears have the rookie QB. He’s not Purdy yet, or Goff.
I dunno.
Sigh.
Bears 20
Rams 17

Apparently, there’s things going on, i dont know about.

wvParticipantKittle and Deebo practiced yesterday, i see. Limited, but practiced.

Seahawks play the Lions next, i see. Then the Giants, 49ers, Falcons, Bills, Rams.
wvParticipantThey talk about Bears linebackers, and say ‘what worked against the 49ers may not work against the Bears’….
Rams stuff starts bout 53 minute mark.
wvParticipantUS / Israel pursuing “de-escalation through escalation”
wvParticipantI dunno if there is a stat on ‘close but missed sacks,’ but it seems like there’s been a lot of ‘almost’ sacks so far. They face another QB who can move, but I’m hoping for these young Dlinemen to not-miss this week.
w
v
wvParticipant49er injuries
wvParticipantwvParticipantChris Long. Bout 1:52:20 in.
…
wvParticipantShocking win. To me. Still, just can not believe it.
I cant remember a more startling regular season win in the McVay era.
w
v
wvParticipant“this is what a super bowl hangover looks like”
wvParticipantwvParticipantOk, well….i know nothing. Been watchin the Rams since the George Allen days, and I know absolutely nothing.
That did not happen.
w
v
wvParticipant49ers favored by 6.5.
Rams are Largest underdog of the week,
except for Washington. Bengals favored by 7.5.
w
v
wvParticipantJust curious, anyone blame the Rams for these injuries? Is it just bad luck, or are they doing something wrong?
Anyone blame capitalism?
Anyone blame zn ?
w
v
wvParticipant49ers – 31
Rams – 13
Sigh.
I am already thinking of next year. Maybe biggest need is WR? Team Doctor?
w
v
wvParticipantOkay. I will bet you a tea bag that the Rams don’t end up in last place in the division. Deal?
Earl Gray
w
v
wvParticipantAbandon hope.
I see you have no faith in the JV team.
Well, I just think there is no coming back from this. Its too much. And i get that some of these guys will come back at different times, but the rhythm and timing aint gonna be there.
And in the mean time Stafford is gonna get killed.
And look at the final stretch. Even if some guys are coming back….
This is gonna be a last place team this year. It just is. Five wins, maybe?
49ers, Bears, Packers, bye, Raiders,
Vikes, Seahawks, Dolphins, Pats, Eagles,
Saints, Bills, 49ers, Jets, Cards, Seahawks.
