Another loss and I'm going to Wing stop for a bucket of chicken heads..........

I have a half marathon Sunday morning. Will be recording the game and watching it after my baby backs come out of the smoker.


So yeah, you guys wont see me here until Sunday night

Ya know, when I was there in 2012 I tried to get @UKram to bring me to a dart pub...think he was afraid I would cause a ruckus

I know you takes your darts seriously ...ructions would have occurred

Something else I learned from that game, Earl Thomas's tackling technique looks awfully similar to what Aaron Donald did earlier this year:

The greatest coach ever is NOT going to lead a group of 53 average NFL players and win the Super Bowl.

Not.

Gonna.

Happen.


Players win Championships.

number 5 is the only thing I agree with. we just don't have players to step in for guys like them. you cant replace Quin, Brockers, Hayes and Tru and expect the same performance just doesn't happen. Simms gets no pressure at all need to see more longacre and with 2 new LB's not plugging the middle on runs its killing us

I've watched it and watched it - damn good play by the DB - that could have been a rams ball, but the DB just rocked it.

Credit where credit's due.

Uh, no. This is the first time I've heard about Gurley making that big of a mistake. One more in the near future for case would be 3 and nearing foles territory. And there is the little fact that we don't have a goff like rb behind Gurley - no offense benny. Love what you do.

-4th down at the end of the first half was a huge momentum shift in that game. Unreal momentum shift - yet we still had a chance. Getting the ball to start the second half we had 3 penalties in our first 4 plays and that one play was negative yardage. That was ugly.

lol, just wow....great overview...that first drive in the 3rd quarter...didn't look like we wanted it more than the Lions.
I still think Joyner, Hill, and now EJ...never really have good or bad games...Well, EJ had a pretty decent game a couple weeks ago...but Joyner...and Hill...they play like backups...perhaps experience will help...But, just the way they never seem to make plays, I wanna see Gratz...I wanna see a bunch of guys...rather than the ones that constantly give up completions on obvious passing downs... no anticipation...not really quick to the ball...and besides sure tackling, what exactly do EJ & Joyner bring to the table? Can you really win, like 11-5 win, with this type of player in a passing league?

Is there a good reason they can't just have kickoff at 8PM in London and regular time for a noon game here? Or at the very least 7PM London and 11cst here? I don't get why they make it such a stupid time for everyone?

@Rynie

OK I was wrong, Dak is pretty good and not just a preseason star.

Rookie receiver Pharoh Cooper was inactive against the Lions because of roster needs caused by injuries in other position groups,” Fisher said. “It’s hard at times when you have injuries to afford yourself to keep up six receivers. I felt like we needed to keep nine defensive linemen up. Therein lies the issue with respect to Coop. It’s not something that he’s done or he hasn’t done…. He had a great week of practice, he’s doing well.”

No matter how Fish spins this, most assume he was sat because of the int return for a TD he was involved in...and will assume he was primarily at fault....

Kendricks is on par with Gronk? Better than Bennett?

Today...as we sit discussing rosters.....Kendricks is a comparable player to Gronk....and probably a li better than Bennett...Especially as a receiving threat....Gronk is a shell of his younger self...Bennett has never been all that...QB's separate these players, not skill.....

People criticize belichick for the same thing too. Except, for Patriots fans of course.

Newton will get a pass from some as well. This isn't something that you're going to get universal agreeance on. People are going to see this different ways, and you just have to accept that.

We really need Quinn. Hopefully he can play even a limited role in the London game. Many Ram fans blaming Fisher for not kicking the FG just before the half instead of running the ball. I agree. On the road in a generally hostile environment, you take the FG especially with the Lions kicking to us to begin the 2nd half. Fisher is very good with the media and fans and is a good guy but I don't think he has evolved as a coach. You need to evolve for the team to stay relevant. . In spite of that, I think we can beat the Giants and then heal our wounds during the BYE week.
Ram fan since 1962 and unlike most Ram fans out here in LA I cheered for them while team was based in St. Louis and watched every game via Sunday Ticket. Go Rams!

No doubt Fisher took this loss as bad as us fans did and probably much worse than some think...

We have a filter we can turn on or off to decide for ourselves what language is visible...

...unless you post it in a GIF. Just sayin'. :redcard:

Cheers, man.

Actually remember your first post, thinking...."what a whack job - hope he sticks, want to read more".

You delivered.

Hope everything's cool.

Hear Hear.

Very true I'd forgotten about that with the last cba.

I am surprised Fitzpatrick did not throw his usual interceptions.

there you go...picked off in the end zone.

Saw the play on All 22. Both Saffold and GRob did a very poor job blocking.

Lions got their pad levels lower too. That's half the battle.

JerseyRam1 said:

Too much "love" for opposing players (Stafford and Tate) in this presser for my liking. Time for Fish to head into the booth so he can spew his love for every NFL player ala Gruden. So great for us diehards to watch Tate and Bouldin beat down on our secondary once again...show some god damn anger please coach? Thats the least you owe us.

He does that after every loss. Usually credits the opposing teams GREAT coaching staff. It's his his mantra.

4 winning seasons out of the last 26 is hard to take though.

If EJ just stays in his zone and keeps his eyes on Stafford, he takes the ball back for a pick six. Instead the wide receiver makes a play on the ball. You have to make QBs pay for erratic passes like that. Stafford should have thrown at least two interceptions but our defense was out of position. I will surely feel good going into the bye at 4-3 but if not, it's time to play Goff. No point in keeping Keenum in if the season is going to be lost anyway.
