Will be interesting to see what type of role Whittington has with Kupp, Puka and drob in the game.

Personally I'd like to see him spell Kupp and puka when they need a breather periodically during the game.

I don't want to see either with double digit catches.

I don't mind the interceptions as long as the qb is throwing touchdowns as well.

In the beginning of the season Stafford's turnovers were so frustrating because the offense wasn't going anywhere all game.

The last two games I didn't care because Stafford always comes back with td throws.

That's how Martz and Warner used to operate. They couldn't care less about interceptions. They'd score on the next drive.

I can recall seeing an amazing stat during the GSOT days.
The Rams were virtually unbeatable unless you won the turnover battle. Their offense was too good for anybody to stop without the Rams turning the ball over. What was amazing was that the opposition still had a losing record (significantly) when the Rams were -1. When the Rams were -2, they were still a .500 team!

Remarkable. You had to win the TO battle by THREE for the Rams to have a losing record.
 
Looking at it from the a better angle I can see why Robinson never used his other hand to secure the ball. The guy had a hold of it. Great catch to maintain possession all they way through the process with one hand.

That's exactly what I saw. Woolen was committing obvious pass interference the whole way, clinging to Robinson's left arm because he was completely beat off the snap. I'm shocked they let that go on with that play, but D-Rob proved Stafford's faith in him.

I’m wondering if there’s a conscious trend by refs to go light on defensive penalties at end of games. I’m seeing a lot of no calls (defensive holding , face masking, QBs hit low, etc).

It’s too bad Brandon Cooks couldn’t do the same :hiding:
low blow, I know, but it was too easy

I agree with this except there are/were two QBs that ALWAYS got/get the calls at the end of the game.

One is Mahomes and the other one is Voldemort (err Crybrady).

Perhaps, but there are two factors during tight stretches that can impact calls:

1. You will be criticized if you call or don’t call it. If you make a call, make it big and obvious. Even officials do not want to decide the game like the idiot who called pass interference against D Will in Buffalo.

2. There’s a lot of stress and pressure on officials, crowd noise, coaches yelling, etc. at the end of the game. Those distractions could lead to a missed call that would be made in normal circumstances.
