Week 10: Monday Night Football!
Dolphins at Rams

The 3 week winning streak has given us life ... onto getting the 4th win.

Dolphins are currently 2-6, but they gave the Bills some troubles last week before losing the game. Rams are only 2.5 favorites at home.

Rams have played the Dolphins 14 times and have only won twice (1976 & 2001).

Go Rams!

This game is gonna be nuts. I’m thinking about going if I can afford the tix.

I'm curious to see how McVay approaches this one. Miami has a prolific offense with quick strike ability. Typically, teams attempt to slow down that offense by keeping them on the sidelines. But Buffalo only ran 19 times last weekend (and gained 94 yards / 4.9 ypc). Arizona ran 26 times at a 3.2 pace in a win. Indy ran 37 and Tennessee ran 40 times in wins. All I can say to our defense is put pressure on Tua (he was only sacked once, very early in the game) but by all means, get those arms up and keep some passes from getting past the LOS.

Pass rush will be key, unfortunately for Tua we have to get after him and quick.
Also Achane has been going crazy, going to be hard to keep a lid on that dude.

Like Param says running the ball and maintaining possession is also key.

Rams are a 2.5/3 point favorite with o/u 50.5

If Avila and J Jax or one of them get up and can play, it should change our ability to really run the ball effectively. We will see how the reports come this week.

If Avila can go but JJ can't, it'll be AJ, Avila, Limmer, Dotson, Noteboom or McClendon RT
If JJ can go but Avila can't, it'll be AJ, JJ, Limmer, Dotson, Noteboom or McClendon at RT
If they can both go, it'll be AJ, Avila, JJ, Dotson and Noteboom or McClendon at RT
If neither can go, it'll be AJ, Dedich, Limmer, Dotson and Noteboom or McClendon at RT

This week? Actually, 4 different combos the first 8 games is a lot better than 2022!!! 5 in 9 is approaching 2022. But at least we've had two 3 game runs with the same starting 5. IMO, you start the best 5 who are healthy. And I think that's the way the coaches will roll.

[ramsman34]

Agreed. But dang, looking at the last 3 games….dont mess without?? lol. No, Avila is an upgrade as is J Jax. Bummer Havs is out. Hopefully by the Philly game we have the planned 5 on the field and totally healthy.
