    Chris Carter reduces it down to “the 49ers have simply been more physical than the Rams”. Thats kinda how it seems to me, too.

    They have beat the rams up, run right thru them, and forced turnovers.

    Maybe a healthy Von Miller can help this time, I dunno.

    Interesting. Yet you constantly gush over this pro-capitalist propaganda piece…

    In one scenario, the Chargers and Raiders would have an incentive to
    TIE and thus both make the playoffs.

    Well, I believe its an ‘entertaining’ and ‘witty’ and ‘funny’ film, etc, etc.

    I’m looking forward to seeing it.

    But I’ve become a mono-maniac about capitalism in these late-stage-days,
    and so, if a film does not expressly call out capitalism, i am going
    to rip it to pieces. Thats how damaged wv-brain is now.

    Biosphere is being murdered. By Capitalism. And they (screenwriters, producers, directors, etc) are not gonna call it out?

    Well, of course they are not gonna call it out. Everyone on this board
    knows WHY they are not gonna call it out.

    Imagine trying to get that movie produced if they HAD expressly,
    directly called it out — even in only one scene.

    Network, back in the 70s at least had one scene where they
    called it out. Directly. I cant think of a film since then.
    Maybe one here or there. A few drops in the ocean.

    On twitter I called a film made by libshits, for libshits.

    But i havent seen it 🙂

    I based my comment on what I’ve been told, and the trailer.

    I’m gonna watch it at some point, and maybe I’ll have a
    better-informed opinion, but…the biosphere is being murdered
    by capitalism. Does the film ever once even mention the C word?

    I am guessing – No.

    It blames ‘greed’ and ‘stupidity’ and all the usual oblique things
    that end up forming an inkblot test in peoples minds.
    Libs can watch and blame Trumpies. Trumpies can watch it and blame
    ‘big stupid government’. Etc, etc, etc.

    If a leftist had made that comedy, how would it have been written?
    This is the question i play with every time a watch film these
    days — If a leftist had written this script how would the
    plot/characters have been different?

    Rams are 5 point favorites according to the mafia.

    I believe i saw a stat where McVay is 8-24 or somethin like that
    when trailing at half-time, btw.

    What does a stat like that mean? Does that mean he doesnt
    adjust well if the original game-plan dont work ?

    Or do most coaches have stats like that when
    trailing at the half.

    in reply to: Martz on Warner #135194
    Avatar photowv
    Participant

    I don’t think he is completely honest there about what he was doing. Here’s the deeper story. Before camp, Martz wanted Justin to be the #2. Justin had worked with him before. Vermeil nixed that and said Warner was the #2. He didn’t ask Martz if Warner should be, he just said he is. DV said Justin could not even compete for the #2. Vermeil already knew who Warner was before 99–he had him there in 98. (Ironically, when Green went down, Justin signed as the #2).

    Martz is famously abusive. It even showed up in how he treated cohosts when he was part of broadcast teams. So I think that was part of it.

    I think Martz lit into Warner at least partly because he was pissed at being shot down over Justin. I bet he told himself that he was just putting pressure on him. And to an extent that’s probably true, because Trent Green told a story about how Warner asked him why Martz was so rough on him, and Green said he told Kurt ah he did that to me too in Washington.

    I may not remember the Green story right. I don’t remember if Green told that story or Warner told that story, where he asked Trent about Martz.

    =========

    Oh, I totally agree.

    I’m assuming there was an ugly scene in the new Kurt movie? Probly made
    Martz wanna ‘explain’ things.

    At this point, I imagine Martz actually believes what he’s saying
    in that vid, though. Humans. “the brain is a self-justifying organ”

    Well Stafford should stick to the new formula: A pick6 and minus 2 in the turnover game, and the rams should win.

    This rookie WR on the Bengals. Named Chase. Had over 200 yards against Kansas City.
    I dunno anything about him or the Bengals.

    But if you havent seen the hi-lite where he he catches a ball and is running
    among a pack of Kansas City players…and then…just turns…on…the…jets.

    Its an OMG moment.

    Either the KC players are slow, or Chase is OMG-fast.

    I’m guessing the more insightful players, could see thru
    what Martz was doing, which makes that whole tactic
    more problematic.

    Cardinals are winning 22 to 7 and I’m glad.

    I do not want that last 49er game to be meaningless
    for the rams. They need to ‘earn this.’

    Its about F’ing time McVay beat Shannahan, aint it?

    Watched the hi lites. I’ll have to watch all of this one.
    Looked like a tough, hardnosed game against a well-coached home-team
    desperate for a win.

    Looked like Stafford was off again. On again. Again.
    Throwin behind people. But still threatening the whole field and stuff.

    12 Wins after sixteen games. I dunno. I dunno what to think of
    this team.

    John Harbaugh is 4-0 against the Rams as HC of The Ravens….

    John Harbaugh’s Ravens have outscored the Rams 120-29

    =============

    I did not know that, but…Good. I like it.

    Finish up against Harbaugh and Shannahan, both of whom
    have owned the Rams.

    For whatever this marriage of ESPN and PFF is worth, the Rams are clearly superior in the trenches to any other team in the league, and it is not close.

    Except when they actually play the 49ers. On the field.

    With future HOF John Wolford on the bench, I hardly think this is an issue.

    Stafford will be back the following week. To lose to the Cowboys.

    Jeezus, is that Wolford guy still the back-up?

    I thought we all liked the other guy. Forget his name.
