Unless a bunch of Ram fans make the 6 hr drive to AZ we are screwed...

Very sad. We all have our views on why this happened to this extent.

Most people don’t care about this football game. So I guess moving it really shouldn’t matter much. Wonder how they handle ticket sales.

Looks like the point spread has moved to 2.5 points.

Should have moved it to Vegas. Who is going to make the 6 hr drive with what is going on in LA.

Cooooooool. Gotta love getting fucked out of Home Field Advantage. Don't get me wrong, I understand the circumstances, but there really is no better alternative than to put us in a rivals stadium?

I'm also starting to worry about the increase of talking heads bringing up the missed facemask in our first tilt with the Vikes. Apparently it's the ONLY reason they lost. :roll2:

All I'm saying is, don't be surprised if we're on the wrong side of a lot of flags (or non-calls). I especially expect a ton of free Viking yards due to Pass Interference, because where the refs let the Lions play physical pass pro, I somehow doubt we get the same.

No home field advantage but how is that not normal? Hell they don't have home field advantage normally at SoFi because the season ticket holders sell their tickets. IMO for the Rams its a nonfactor.

So fine let the Vikings fans spend all that money to watch them lose. There are some Ram fans like myself in AZ so I'm sure the team will be represented. I can't go because of my surgery but it's okay. I hate going to Phoenix. It's over 2 hr drive each way. Nahhh I stay home with my GF, beer and great food. Besides the clan will be here as well (I've converted my GFs family from Raider fans to Ram fans). All my family is in LA, and both my niece and nephew are both active military and deployed. My family is safe thank god, the LA contingent lives near Pierce College.

Besides, it only rubs it in the Cardinal fans faces. They thought this was their year. LMAO But Kyler heard his PlayStation calling him. What a loser he is. They will have a hard time trying to trade him because of his well-known poor work ethic and big contract.

I feel bad anyone that was going in LA but can't now.

But if the Rams are going to get through MIN, DET, and PHI, this is the least of their concerns or mine.

The point was we were actually going to have a major home field finally in this game, like 90% Ram fandom. This game was gonna be tight, so having the crowd advantage and getting into Darnold's head was a significant factor IMO. Our pass rush would be that more affective with crowd noise, now how will it be with crickets...

Im have a bad feeling about this game now. Either the Rams use the emotion of what is happening in LA and use that as fuel to eeek out a win or they get dump trucked.

All the talking heads I have heard havent mentioned the face mask, but the PI stuff is a concern. We arent overly physical at corner so not too worried as they have to call it the same on both sides right??!

Yup. We got screwed. Point spread has moved significantly away from us winning.

Honestly, I don’t expect us to win this game now. Too many distractions and loss of HFA.

Just an awful combination of bad luck and idiots running the state.

They should have allowed all ticket holders to watch the game in SoFi (in addition to the obvious refund). A lot of local goodwill would’ve been gained if they made that move.

Maybe even a food drive at the gate to bring goodwill to everyone.
