Guess both teams were reading their own press all week….

To expand on that.

Carolina’s press from last week pissed em off so they got it together.

The Rams press had them trusting too blithely in their superiority.

Though this is one game where they really could have run more than they did. Rams got 152 yards rushing on 21 attempts, for 7.2 a carry. Everyone talks about the Carolina run game, but they just ran it more often. If the Rams had run it 40 times, as Carolina did, that would have been 288 yards.

Panthers have been so good as the spoiler team this season and what a win…Rams (Stafford) had been so clean all year felt like the dark chaos simply had to peek out sometime before January!

Football is a really simple game sometimes.

Lose the turnover battle 3-0 and you’re usually going to lose, even as a much better team.

Rams were the NFL flavor of the week last week.
Life moves fast.

roberto clemente@rclemente2121
that was only the 3rd time in 12 games that the rams defense has given up an opening drive td this season.

Rams Bros.@RamsBrothers
Sky isn’t falling. Panthers made all they plays that they needed to. Stafford uncharacteristically turned it over 3x and they capitalized on all of them.

No more long east coast trips on the schedule. Go learn from it and beat the shit out of AZ next weekend.

NFL history for Matthew Stafford – 28 straight TD passes without an INT.

That’s the 28th TD pass from Stafford since his last INT and yes..that’s best stretch ever in NFL history pic.twitter.com/lv76cIWWAy

Signs of the Rams’ dominance:

🏈Rams have won six straight games and in their past five games, they have outscored their opponents 63-3 in the first quarter.

🏈Against the Jaguars, 49ers and Buccaneers, they have held leads of 21-0.

🏈The Rams haven’t trailed since the first quarter of Week 6, when Baltimore led Los Angeles 3-0.

Will be interesting to see how the Rams approach the CB rotation this week with Witherspoon back. They’ve been using a 3-man rotation for most of the season, and it’s worked well

Cameron DaSilva@camdasilva
All 3 players who were questionable for the Rams are active, including Kam Kinchens and Poona Ford.

Derion Kendrick is a healthy scratch, but Nick Vannett is active in his first game for the Rams.

Gary Klein@LATimesklein
Rams WR Tutu Atwell practiced this week but was not activated to the roster from injured reserve

roberto clemente@rclemente2121
in 9 of their 11 games, the rams defense has held opposing offenses to just two touchdowns or fewer – and in 7 of their 11 games, to just one touchdown or less. impressive as hell.

The question is, Why?

From what I gather, Sirianni likes to keep mistakes and turnovers to a minimum and would rather rely on talent to dominate with a physical offense that selectively takes shots downfield.

He could do that, IMO, when he had what was physically the best OL in the NFL. That’s not holding up this year.

Against the Bears, yeah, they ran all over the Eagles defense, but then at the same time the Eagles offense couldn’t stay on the field to exchange punch for punch. They were 4 for 12 on 3rd down and had 14 1st downs to Chicago’s 28.

Rams opted not to activate WR Tutu Atwell from IR for Week 13

Two Rams guards in the top five, plus two former Rams in the top ten. A big reason Matthew Stafford has been killing it this season.#Rams #RamsHouse #NFL #LAFootball #LAFB pic.twitter.com/Rq8QaHjfvA

69 = Dotson, 73 = Avila (in case you didn’t immediately recall that).

The 2 former Rams guards referred to here are David Edwards (Buffalo) and Austin Corbett (Carolina).
