wvParticipantThe ’22nd in rushing’ stat is interesting.
They dont have a dynamic, explosive running game, like, say
the Browns, but it looks to me, like maybe its “just good enuff.”I think if Goff was Quarterbacking they would be 28th, btw.
Stafford forces teams to defend the whole field. Has to help
the running game a little, I would think.Henderson looks like a good ‘complimentary’ back. Not a work-horse.
Sony Michel looks very ordinary to me.Situation makes me think about the GSOT. All those outside-weapons, a Hall of Fame QB, AND a Hall of Fame RB/WR/player-coach. Are you kidding me?

vwvParticipantYou and your Seahawk compatriots at wikipedia can try to minimize the accomplishments of the Rams all you want, but I won’t stand by and let your fake news go unchallenged.
Merlin Olsen played in 56 Pro Bowls, not 14. Elvis Peacock is second with 54. Look it up.
The Rams record for sacks in a game is 47, and they did it 27 times, most recently last Thursday against your beloved Russell Zorn.
And somehow your NFL historical “scholars” completely overlooked this little tidbit…
“The NFL team record for safeties in a game is three, which all occurred when the Los Angeles Rams recorded 3 against the New York Giants on September 30, 1984. The individual record is two, by the Rams’ Fred Dryer against the Green Bay Packers on October 21, 1973.”
====
In NONE of those games, were ANY of the players vaccinated
for Covid. ALL those records were set by Un-Vaxt players.I think my point is quite clear.

vwvParticipantThat SF QB looks like a bigger stronger version of the Ariz QB.
Jeezus.w
vwvParticipantSomewhere Grits is smiling. Chargers look good.
How bout Los Angeles vs Los Angeles, in Los Angeles
for the Super Bowl ?w
vOctober 10, 2021 at 11:17 am in reply to: cowherd editorial vid: seattle outdated, mcvay too pedestrian #132957wvParticipantI dunno. Pete Carroll built one of the best defenses in NFL history.
That Legion of Boom was maybe the best ‘new NFL rules’ defense
Ive seen.I just cant ‘cancel’ PC.
The Seahawks were right there with the Rams at the end. If Lockett
doesnt trip…As far as McV and his new Stafford-approach — I’m fine with it. I assume
they are both still adjusting and working out timing, and tinkering.
The loss of Akers was big. Staffords finger injury is significant.
Stafford is still working on the timing with his WRs.Barring injury — I assume the offense will be on an upward trajectory
all year.Just gotta hope the Defensive stars make just enuff big plays
to win the big games. Cause overall, the defense is not gonna be soundw
vwvParticipantOkay, just watched it.
Was there a second reference? I missed it, but I was pretty sleepy. The one at the beginning…if that was controversial, I don’t know what to say.

There was a part1 and a part2. Two separate jokes about space jews.From a purely comedic perspective — they were lame. Not funny.
From a political perspective, he shoulda said ‘space zionists’
probly, and not space jews.I did not see them, but apparently there were some other jokes
that didnt go over well with some in the LBGTQ community.…i like Chappelle but I dont agree with all of his politics.
Then again, I didnt always agree with Carlin either.w
vOctober 9, 2021 at 11:35 am in reply to: setting up the Giants game (updated w/ good 1 by JB Long) #132928wvParticipantLast time they played, I thought BigBlue’s defense
beat the crap out of the Rams. They seemed
much more physical than the rams.If Goff was the QB, I might very well pick the Giants
in this one. But for me, Stafford just changes things.I would take the Giants and the Points
though.w
vwvParticipantWatched the game.
I’ll just keep repeating this all year long: Stafford makes this
team very dangerous. Even when he is off. Or injured. Or the defense
or special teams are screwing up.If the Rams are in striking distance, Stafford and those weapons
can bring the lightning.
Fun to watch.I enjoyed seeing my wv-boy, Geno, play well.
Kupp, Woods, Higby, Van — all looking dangerous — cuz Stafford can zing it to any of em, anywhere on the field.
TuTu. Sigh. What…were…they…thinking?? Snead’s biggest mistake?

vwvParticipantOnly saw the hi-lites so far, but my reaction is — I’m thrilled.
I have zero problems with a Road win against a division rival.
Once when i was a kid, I was playing in a football game, and
i punted the ball into the butt of the guy in front of me.
Ball bounced back to me, and i punted it again.Punted it into the butt of the guy in front of me
a second time.All perfectly legal.
Would have done it a third time, if i hadnt dropped the
ball.w
vwvParticipantWe should find out some more about this defense tonight. We’ve seen games where the Rams D has handled Seattle, even in years with losing seasons, and we have seen games where they did not handle Seattle. I just have a feeling that tonight we get a snapshot of how the defense will be this year.
===========
Yeah.
And if nothing else, win or lose, we need to see some Fire out of this team.
After a complete butt-kicking, one would think a top-tier team
would at least come out with a lot of fire against another division rival.Looks like every western division game is gonna be a war for
each team from here on out.w

wvParticipantWell, I just replied to someone this morn on twitter and she said
one of the three or four things that radicalized her was
reading leftist tweets
on twitter.So, i think twitter has a place. Especially for the young and the ‘learning.’
But is it a good place for ‘good conversation’? Hell no.
Its a circus of short ‘gotchas’ and virtue signalling etc.But again, i think it has a place. I like it, but not
for ‘conversation’ or nuanced discussion.One of my favorite things about Left-Twitter is someone will just
toss out a ‘day in history’ when this or that ‘leftist event’
happened or this or that radical activist did this or that,
and I get to learn something. I have to go off twitter
to search about the person or event, but its a tweet
that gave me the heads-up.I cant compare twitter to facebook, cause i dont really ‘do’
facebook.w
vwvParticipantWill you switch your allegiance from Seattle to Dallas if that happens?
=========
Possibly, but Nittany and I are still on the
Vikings bandwagon at the moment.w
vwvParticipantWell, the Seattle game will be interesting. If Russell Wilson
and the Hawks eviscerate them the way the Cards did,
its gonna be a disappointing year.The NFC doesnt have a super-team, so no team looks unbeatable.
Wouldnt surprise me if a team like Dallas gets hot at the end
of the year.w
vwvParticipantAre they blitzing less this year? Seems like they
are sitting back more, playing a softer,
bend-but-dont-break scheme. Yes? No?And if so, why?

wvParticipantwvParticipantIt will be interesting to see how the Cards handle
all the media-hoopla now that they are the
best team in the history of football.w
vwvParticipantBig loss, at Home, to a division rival.
Only saw the highlights but sure looked like the Cardinals
wanted it more.w
vwvParticipantNot a tweet, but its Mexie
==
wvParticipantStafford still doesn’t have much of a running game, does he.
Doesnt matter. He’s ‘elevated the whole building.’
w
vwvParticipantThe way i would put it is, They are Legit Super-Bowl contenders.
Period.I wont list the reasons, we all know them.
Thing is, there are other Legit Super Bowl contenders out there, too.
Teams just as good. Probably not better, but just as good.
So, an injury here, a bad bounce there, and….Bills, Packers, Chiefs, Ravens, 49ers, Cards, Bucs….probly eight teams
right now, right there in the top-tier.w
vwvParticipant[Thread] FOIA’d documents show that the Pentagon worked closely with Hollywood, rewriting dozens of films and TV shows about the Afghan War to give them a more pro-war message, thus helping prolong the conflict.

wvParticipantNever had a deep threat as good as DJ?
Apparently he’s never heard of Harold Jackson, Tom Fears
and Crazy Legs.w
vwvParticipantMedia loves the LA Rams.
I dont know that the media ever loved
the St Louis Rams.===========
wvParticipantStafford is so F’ing fast. His decision-making is fast,
his arm is lightning-fast.Fun…to…watch.
Imagine if Marshall Faulk was on this team 🙂
w
vwvParticipantMcVay is a ‘shanna-hanian,’ eh?
Might as well put this tidbit here, fwiw. I read it the other day. Just something mildly interesting Kyle Shannahan said:
“..’It was two extremes being with someone like Jon Gruden who does every play known to man and you have so much scheme, which was awesome,” Shanahan said. “You had to learn it all. Then you went to Gary, who believed less is more. Not having as much. You come from one extreme and that’s all you know and then you go to the other and it’s totally different.’…
…Jon Gruden’s philosophy was to overload players with scheme and ideas, pushing learning to the max through excess information. Kubiak believed in perfecting a specific way of play within a smaller concentric circle…”Kyle Shanahan watched and learned, both in Tampa Bay and Houston.
wvParticipantMain takeaway is: This defense just looks so different.
Its not a terrible defense, but last year it was so aggressive,
and fearsome. This one just looks tamer, softer.
I dunno if they have to protect some weak link or if they
dont have the talent anymore, or if the DC is just stupid.Second takeaway: So this is what a great, veteran, QB looks like.
Awesome. What a fucking powerhouse Stafford is. That drive to take the lead?
Are you kidding me. Boom, boom, boom, TD.w
vwvParticipantI’m watching the Replay, and Kupp is looking like prime-kupp,
but the issue has never been his talent — its his durability.
(Imho)The way he plays, is almost reckless. I just dont
expect him to be at full-speed by the end of the year,
if he can play at all.When he’s uninjured and fresh he’s
great, obviously.w
