    Some of yuuz guyz are a lot tougher on Stafford than I am. To me, he’s only played one bad game: the Titan game.

    The SF game was about the run defense for me. 19-play drives, etc.
    Staffords ‘INT’ to Higby was a good pass. His INT to OBJ was not a great
    decision, but i basically put it down as miscommunication with a new WR.
    Ended up being a punt, essentially. Etc, and so forth.

    Losing Akers was huge. Losing Woods was huge. The Oline may be
    wearing down.

    It would take a great offense to overcome a porous run defense.
    Rams dont have a great offense.

    Looks like another wild-card kind of year for McVay.
    Pretty good team, but not top-five.

    “…While there, she claims he flew into a jealous, violent rage.”
    —-

    ‘Love,’
    a breakup,
    jealousy,
    violence.

    Seen it a gazillion times.

    Most of my male jealous-rage-abuser-clients over the years,
    did not ‘mean’ to fly into a violent-rage. But they
    could not stop the infantile-rage. Its like lightning.

    There’s usually something ‘infantile’ about such men.
    Hard to describe. Something didnt develop.
    I dunno.

    Protective Orders and stuff only come into play
    when its too late.

    Something needs to happen to teach young boys
    learn to handle emotional pain.

    I am just disgusted.

    This is the most disgusted I’ve been since – I don’t know when.

    That beat down should have been the other way around, and I just don’t think there is an excuse for that. That game was over when the Rams botched the fake field goal. The Rams were done by HALFTIME in a game they HAD to have, against an opponent they should not have taken lightly, and which entered the game on its heels. And the Rams just got their asses kicked for the second week in a row.

    Just no excuse.

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

    Yeah, I havent said much, cuz i have no words.
    I think you summed it up: disgusted.

    Two physical teams in a row, beat the crap out of
    them. And a third is coming up.

    I guess this is what “All In” looks like.

    I was at the game. Here’s my report.

    Atmosphere. Like every Rams-Niner game I’ve been to, save 07, when both teams stunk, it was really good. For a rivalry game, the two fan bases get on real well. I saw no problems, no fights or taunting. I was surprised at the number of empty seats between the 20’s. Way fewer Ram fans than previous years.

    Now my take..

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

    Good to hear from you, Oz.

    What if the Rams have a collection of stars,
    but not enough solid players?

    Jeezus. Saw that tweet-quote by JG

    I haven’t decided if I like the OBJ signing or not yet…

    Ponder what happens if Kupp gets hurt down the stretch.
    Or Woods.

    Sometimes the talking-heads talk about how the rams offense
    is “loaded with talent” etc. But if you really take a look at it,
    it aint that loaded.

    There’s a vid out there on utube, where one of the celebrity-idiots
    talks about Jalen Ramsey talking to OBJ on the phone, and at one point
    there’s a question as to whether the rams WRs would accept OBJ, and Jalen
    carries the phone into the WR room, and asks the WR’s if they want OBJ,
    and they all answer enthusiastically yes.

    Who knows how true that is, or whether they were being sincere,
    etc, and so forth.

    But I would think anybody would accept him if they knew
    it was only for half a season.

    Well, as long as there is no negative impact on the locker room, I’m fine with it..

    Well, its just half of one season. How much damage could he do?

    Took him years to stir shit in Cleveland.

    The Rams seem to have some solid leaders. I think they can
    handle OBJ. Plus, OBJ has a chance to win a Ring, and show
    teams he can be a good team-mate. Its in HIS interest
    to be a team-player for now.

    To me, its real simple — is he, or is he not,
    better than van jefferson?

    If he is better than VJ, then you sign OBJ.

    Now, if you were a DC, would you rather face,
    Kupp, Woods and VJ,
    or
    Kupp, Woods, and OBJ ?

    I’ll take OBJ over VJ any day.

    Same problem last year. There were a few times last year where the OL just got handled. I was saying all along that this year’s OL is better than last year’s…but they backslid. So who knows if it’s really better.

    ======

    Yup. Same problem. But luckily they drafted Tutu instead
    of an OLineman, so I am optimistic.

    The rams did not ‘beat themselves.’ They were mauled.

    Yes, they made tons of ‘mistakes’ but they were forced
    mistakes.

    Yeah, i was afraid that would happen – physical butt-kicking.

    Could be a valuable learning experience, though. Could be
    they just have trouble with a physical bullying team. We’ll see.

    Lots of what happened is correctable. Whats not correctable is an
    OLine that cant hold up to a defense like the Titans.

    If they played again, I would not bet against the Rams,
    but I still think it would be a very close game.

    That was the part I was referring to in the beginning of my post. That’s all “lawyer speak.” He knew what the question was, and he evaded the answer on a language technicality, and gave an answer that he knew would be interpreted as “Yes, I am vaccinated.”

    He can maybe get away with that in a court of law, but not in my personal estimation. He deliberately misled his audience to a false conclusion.

    Oh yeah. He’s a weasel.
    It will be interesting to see how he spins it
    when next he talks to the peoples.

    I still remember the late 60’s and 70’s. Back when football was

    Well, I’ve never gotten over the physical butt-kicking the
    Eddie-George-McNair-Fisher-Titans
    put on Kurt Warner and the Rams back in that 1999 regular season
    game. The comeback that fell short.

    Seems like the Titans are always a physical, punishing, team.
    And now they will rally around domestic-abuser Adrian Peterson.

    I dont like it. Not sure the rams are tough enough for this.
    We’ll see.

    But those clips (and I didn’t watch them all the way through) look to me like people who just don’t like Rogers personally, and are piling on.

    I’ll bet if they liked Rogers personally, their opinions about this would be shaped differently.

    Fwiw, in the 2nd clip, at the 6 minute mark, I think the dude

    Since the rams special-teams-blockers cant block,
    I do NOT want to see anymore skinny-scrawny-teeny-tiny youngsters
    returning kicks.

    Forget the dreams of long returns, and just put a big strong
    Cullen-Bryant-type of player back there and just
    keep it simple: Catch ball, Two hands on Ball, Go straight ahead,
    Fall down on contact, Give Ball to Stafford.
