    I hate these damn organizations that think they can build super teams. It never works out, you know.

    “Soviet cartoon (1978) showing a western youth having his mind poisoned by ‘tele-propaganda’.
    The cartoon was drawn by Naum Moiseyevich Lisogorsky for Krokodil magazine. Krokodil and other Soviet publications produced dozens of cartoons in the 1970s and 80s condemning the culture of Western youth, as well as its adoption among the youth of the Soviet Union.
    The caption reads in full: ‘Hours of daily tele-propaganda of violence, cruelty and depravity poisons the souls of Western youth and contributes significantly to the growth of crime in capitalist countries.’
    Published in Issue No. 16, June 1978”

    The Los Angeles @RamsNFL all-time leading rusher is NOT Hall of Famer Marshall Falk or Erik Dickerson. It’s Steven Jackson.

    And that is fitting, I think. Glad its SJax. And given the way RBs get themselves injured, that record may stand until the final apocalypse.

    SJax – 10,138
    E.D. – 7235
    MF — 6959
    Cutch – 6186
    Dick Bass – 5417
    Gurley – 5404
    Kyren — 4326

    Ty Hamilton….

    “…Despite his foot quickness, Hamilton rushes with an unimaginative, down-the-middle approach”

    Un-imaginative. I don’t recall every seeing that in a review before.

    One wonders how imaginative Marlin Olsen was.

    Seahawks just picked up an all-pro Guard (8 times). Quentin Nelson from the Colts.

    Only had to give up a 3rd and a 5th.

    Colts fire-sale begins.

    I suspect every fan on earth hates it when their team plays a winless team.

    Its a no-win situation.

    I’m expecting a shoot-out and a very close game. Chargers coming off a bye, getting starters back.

    This should not be an 0-6 team. Rams should not be 3-4. Makes you wonder what the Universe is doing, exactly.

    ————————–
    A.I.
    Chargers Areas of Potential Improvement

    • Healthier Roster: The Chargers are expected to get major reinforcements after their bye week, including starting offensive linemen Joe Alt and Kayode Awosika, along with wide receivers Brennan Thompson and Ladd McConkey.

    • Simplified Offense: Head coach Jim Harbaugh and the coaching staff are looking to strip down a complex system under offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel that has caused pre-snap penalties, route confusion, and a league-leading 15 turnovers.

    • Defensive Resilience: While the record is winless, the defense has quietly overperformed in the passing game—ranking 9th in passing yards allowed and holding star quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen without a touchdown pass earlier in the season

    Rams and Chargers have only played 13 times. Rams lead series 7 to 6.

    Last game was in 2023, Chargers won 31 to 10. Chargers had over 430 yards of offense. 192 yards rushing. Justin Herbert was 21 for 28. 119 QB rating.

    Baker Mayfield was sacked 3 times.
    ———-

    Chargers averaging 15 points a game so far this season, and lead the NFL in turnovers.

    Seahawks up by ten at the half, i see. Kenneth Walker totally shut-down in the first half.

    Darnold throws a bad pick in the endzone just before the half or It would be 17 to zip.

    For the Lions. Not the Rams.

    For the Rans, Waterfield has 128 INTs in 91 starts.
    For the Rams, Stafford has 59 INTs in 81 starts.

    Things i did not know — Bob Waterfield also played Defensive Back. He threw 128 INTs, sure — but he also Intercepted 20 passes.

    97 TD passes for Waterfield. Won loss record with the Rams as a QB — 40-24-4

    Israel has an election coming up soon. Many Israeli’s dont seem upset about the genocide. They are upset that Net-an-yahoo didnt ‘prevent the Oct 7 attack.’

    Matthew Stafford is now the all-time leader in passing TDs in both #Lions history (282) and #Rams history (155 and counting)…
    =================

    But…is he also the all-time leader in INTs for both franchises?

    Rams proved that their 3-win team is better than the Raiders 3-win team.

    Rams also soared over the Cardinals today into second-to-last-place in the West.

    Kam Kurl went down today. Parkinson banged up.

    Gutty win on the road today, by a sloppy, injured team.

    Bring on Los Angeles.

    never saw him play but i definitely knew of him..

    I think maybe Kyren Williams is a good comp for McCutcheon. Both had great vision, nifty runners, but lacked that top-end speed.

    Interestingly (and somethin I didnt remember) McCutcheon had TEN fumbles in 1976, according to Wiki. (two of them recovered).

    McCutcheon had 400 yards receiving one year. Most years it was close to 300 yards or so, receiving. All-purpose back.

    Rams are still 3.5 to 4.5 point favorites according to the gambling powers-that-want-your-money.

    I suspect this year the Rams could be 0-15 and Vegas would still have them as favorites in their last two games.

    This is a strange team. And Myles Garret is a mythological creature who does not actually exist.

    I still have the Lawrence McCutcheon Sports Illustrated poster that I got in 1978. It was the first Rams merch I ever purchased. I had it mounted on poster board about 15 years ago and now it hangs in my Rams Cave. My first favourite running back.

    RIP Lawrence.

    Best year may have been his first. Played 12 games. 5.2 yard average. 1097 yards.

    Joe Greene used to punch linemen in the gut.

    Conrad Dobler?

    Can you be a ‘nice person’ and play on a defensive line in the NFL ?

    Maybe Merlin was the last nice person on defense.

    I hated them because they deliberately tried to injure opponents.

    I’m pretty sure every defensive player was murderous back then. Deacon. Butkis. Lambert. Mike Curtis. Tatum. Etc.

    Luckily, America has become a kinder, gentler nation.
