    Not clear who to root for in that one.

    I have no love for the Titans. Jeff Fisher is an a-hole.

    But…the Titans are of no concern to us Rams fans. Their W-L record means nothing to us.

    And am never able to root for the 49ers unless they are playing a team that is a direct threat to the Rams.

    I can see, though, why you are unable to understand things from a Rams fan’s perspective.

    They have 3 weeks to activate him to play.

    Or else…what?

    Yay! NoCal gets the Rams straight up, two weeks in a row.

    Ernest Jones vs. Dalvin Cook

    Honestly…not worried about that matchup.

    Interesting stuff from Cowherd and Schlereth. Cowherd is one of very few yappers I can listen to. So much sports talk is about ego and bluster. Anyway…

    The comments about Seattle are interesting. I thought Metcalf was supposed to be a great WR, but Cowherd doesn’t think he runs routes. The Rams haven’t had any trouble from him, that’s for sure. Cowherd thinks it’s a drafting issue up there in Seattle, and also maybe the Wilson/Carroll marriage has gone stale. I wonder if it’s time to break that team up and start again. New coach or new QB. The idea of Wilson going to Denver is interesting. That would make the AFC West a helluva division.

    It’s true what he said about AZ’s schedule. It’s got loseable games, though the Rams’ schedule does, too. As Nittany said, the Rams could go 0-3 or 3-0, but it’s set up for them to take the division if they win their games. I don’t think AZ is going to end up 13-4.

    BREAKING: Fournette is out for the year. TB just took a hit.

    McVay had to have seen that, and figured out they need to pound Sony Michel

    Yes, McVay’s comment about Michel’s role in the Pats’ 2018 SB run was one of the most interesting things I’ve heard him say.

    It’s a decent win, especially for the defense. They contained Wilson with a 4-man rush all night, and the Seahawks never seemed to have the upper hand in the game. The Seahawks played pretty well on defense, though they may have been helped by the fact that the Rams had zero live practices all week and a ROT who isn’t a ROT.

    The Rams dominated the first half, and yet it seemed like a moral victory that they went into halftime tied at 3. But the Rams just won a slow, inevitable tug-of-war match where they just steadily dragged Seattle all night long. Seahawk fans are rightly upset about a couple of blown calls, but they can’t really believe they were in that game. They got 200 yards all night. And I’ve heard no mention of calls the crew blew the other way. Hochuli’s crew is disturbingly bad, it seems to me. I don’t usually even know who’s calling the games, but seems like every time I hear Hochuli’s name, it’s for the wrong reason.

    Jalen Ramsey is a really good football player, and may be the best Ram’s corner they’ve ever had. I like Deayon. I think Williams is better in man coverage, but I didn’t hear his name much last night, and that’s usually a good thing. Gerald Everett is the only guy who can feel like he did his bit in the passing game. Taylor Rapp and David Long are on life support, as far as I’m concerned. The Rams’ stellar streak of drafting secondary players was interrupted by those two guys.

    Matthew Stafford seems like the LE model of Jared Goff. He’s better, but they sure look alike in their inconsistency. They both make these amazing throws sprinkled with WTF throws. That first INT Stafford threw was terrible. It was so bad I don’t know how it hasn’t drawn more attention. He wasn’t hit. He wasn’t off balance. And that ball was nowhere close to the target.

    Sony Michel is what I was hoping for when I read about him at the trade. He has done enough to legitimize the Rams rushing attack, and defenses have to respect the run. He doesn’t have the flash and burst of the legendary backs of yore, but he is good enough to keep the Rams’ offense balanced.

    The Rams put in a solid game in spite of going through the most turbulent week of the season, and there is reason to hope that they are peaking at the right time. They are even in a decent position to take the division after all, though the road ahead is not easy. I don’t see them beating GB in GB, though.

    But first things first. I hate the Vikings.

    Tom Brady just smashed a windows tablet because he’s losing? Like it’s an effing clipboard with paper on it.

    What a fucking dickhead. I’m sorry. But that’s disgusting. What a jackass.

    I am casting my vote in favor of the Saints holding on to a 9-0 lead.

    Well, the AZ/DET game is off to a good start.

    Most of the adoring good will he gets, though, is based on how he conducts himself as a star off camera, in the regular world. There is a genuine grounded humility to him. That’s been tested many times and it holds up.

    Yeah, I’ve seen several of those reports, and he seems like an above average human being, never mind a stand out among fellow celebrities. You can’t help but wish a guy like that well.

    Ramsey is back, and Lockett is out.

    That’s favorable.

    I won’t sit and watch anything, but I will track all the NFC playoff candidates throughout the day. And if it looks like any one of them is in trouble late in the game, I will watch that.

    I will probably have more of an eye on GB Balt. I also hope Atl rises up against SF.

    The NFL should have a Covid ticker that logs every player’s test results in a constant stream in a ribbon at the bottom of the screen, like stock prices.

    I like The Matrix, a lot.

    Matrix II was so bad that I believe that The Matrix was kind of an accident. Matrix III got such bad reviews that I didn’t even watch it.

    Then I watched their TV show, Sensate8, or whatever it was. Started off really interesting, and lost its way.

    Seems like these sibling directors have really great concepts that exceed their storytelling reach. I dunno.

    And am I wrong that Keanu Reaves was a JOKE a few years ago? Like…terrible, terrible actor stuff, and now seems like he’s a saint.

    Media garbage, man. Don’t know.

    The NFL should shut down for two weeks and quarantine all players and coaches.

    Worried about your beloved Seahawks losing to the Rams even when they have BOTH hands tied behind their back?

    Yeah…I like Cowherd. But that IS recency bias, and I think he’s a homer for the Rams.

    I need to see the Rams do the same thing 3 weeks in a row. Go do Seattle, then Minnesota like that, and then we will revisit the rankings.

    The Rams have been too inconsistent to be ranked higher than 3rd in the NFC right now, and I think both the Cowboys and Cardinals can plausibly argue that they should be ranked higher than the Rams. In fact, right now, I would slot the Rams 5th…exactly where they are seeded, as it happens.
