znModeratorMcVay discussed his quarterback’s outstanding night, having trouble picking one thing that stood out to him from Stafford’s display of talent.
“I think it was just his steady demeanor throughout the course of the game,” McVay said. “Just like you had seen in practice and seen from afar, but I think their first drive of the second half I thought was most impressive. But then I’m thinking about what an unbelievable job he did progressing, finding Robert Woods on the last touchdown, so there were multiple things but I think the overall game management and I think the expectation. You could just see there was a look in his eye. He had confidence in his teammates. He expected to play well and he did a great job. It’s hard to say there was one thing. I loved everything he did tonight.”

znModeratorlooks like the Rams realized the same thing this off-season.
Because when the Bears tried the same play out of the same look early in the game on Sunday night, the Rams immediately adjusted by having their Safety rotate low into the box. pic.twitter.com/U3rltlWFM2

For his outstanding performance, Stafford has been named the NFC’s Offensive Player of the Week for the first week of the season. His numbers were among the best of his career, and given the context of this being his first start with the Rams, it’s only fitting that he win the award in his debut.
znModeratorBTW…Stafford’s okay I guess. He’ll do.

znModeratorAaron Donald seemed a tiny bit off in game one.
He just-missed making a coupla plays he usually makes.
w
vyeah. there were a couple of plays where he had the guy right in his hands. and when that happens almost always the guy goes to the ground.
I think if we look back, AD has always been a slow starter when the season begins.

znModeratorSosa Kremenjas@QBsMVP
if you’re a Rams fan, you should be going WILD right now. these guys took 0 snaps together in the PS and it was visible, Stafford missed two throws (Woods over MOF, DeSean first catch) because of the lack of timing.they’re going to get better. they’ve got a masssssive ceiling.
…
Offensive line: A-
Considering the defensive front the Rams faced on Sunday night, it was a good performance by the O-line. They allowed just one sack and four total hits on Matthew Stafford, though it didn’t even seem like that many while watching the game.He had a ton of time in the pocket and those deep shots were well-protected, allowing them to develop down the field. Brian Allen still has room for improvement and Andrew Whitworth wasn’t in peak form yet, but Rob Havenstein and David Edwards did good jobs in their respective matchups with Khalil Mack and Akiem Hicks.
znModeratorznModeratorThis power ranking article puts all 4 NFC West teams in the top 6.
—
from NFL Power Rankings
6. Arizona Cardinals (1-0, LW: 19)
That’s why the Cardinals were smart to not give in to Chandler Jones’ trade request. The brass there needs to win now, and Jones makes a huge difference. He had five sacks and will be one of the NFL’s best defensive players. The Cardinals looked great on both sides of the ball.
5. Seattle Seahawks (1-0, LW: 8)
Two plays that looked a lot easier than they were: Tyler Lockett made an unbelievable adjustment to catch a touchdown over his shoulder …
… then Russell Wilson threw a pass that went about 60 yards in the air and hit Lockett in stride for a game-changing touchdown. These plays were the difference in a win.
4. Los Angeles Rams (1-0, LW: 7)
Everything looked great. I wonder if that was because the Bears are a really bad team, but part of being a contender is taking care of business against bad teams. The Rams did just that.
3. San Francisco 49ers (1-0, LW: 5)
Think of the 49ers this way: They barely used Trey Lance, who is their most talented quarterback. Trey Sermon, a back everyone had high hopes for, was surprisingly inactive. Raheem Mostert got hurt early in the game. Brandon Aiyuk, perhaps because he’s barely back from a hamstring injury, didn’t get a target after playing so well last season. And the 49ers still put up 41 points on the road. All those aforementioned players are very good and will be factors as we go on. The 49ers are going to be really good.
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-0, LW: 2)
Well, Tom Brady still is in his prime. The Buccaneers have a lot to work on, but realistically it’s pretty good if you can turn it over four times and still win a game against a talented Cowboys team.
1. Kansas City Chiefs (1-0, LW: 1)
In the second half of last season, the Chiefs kept doing just enough to win. They didn’t blow anyone out. It’s not a good habit for an elite team to get into. Yet on Sunday, the Chiefs fell behind and had to rally to win. The Browns are good and the Chiefs will get healthier, but it’ll be nice to see them dominate some opponents (it probably won’t happen at Baltimore in Week 2).

znModerator𝕋𝕠𝕞 – 𝕃𝔸 ℝ𝕒𝕞𝕤@TL_LARams
Being a Pro Bowl WR in the NFC is tough when you have the likes of Adams, Cooper, Godwin, Evans, Hopkins etc in the conference, but if Cooper Kupp plays all 17 games as the focal point of the Rams offense you have to imagine he makes it for the first time.
znModeratorAnd with RB Raheem Mostert announcing today that he is out for the season with a knee injury he sustained vs. Detroit, the 49ers now are signing former Lions’ RB Kerryon Johnson to their practice squad, per his agent @DrewJRosenhaus.
