Great shot @SWAdude!!

The exterior of that stadium reminds me of one of those Origami finger games.

So anyways, in short,

We had a great time with many. Epic really.

The whole ref blowing the call with NOLA was a big distraction. The NFL screwed that up leaving it on the Rams shoulders.

It was our game to lose and just was too big for Goff and McVay. Experience will do wonders for those two.

Gurley is fine. CJ may be a distraction.

I looked at the pics I took and only one really stood out.

It is a great time to be a Rams fan. Our future is insanely bright.

Can't get what I wrote out of my mind. Maybe can share a bit at at a time.

As for crowd noise, the day before the game it was hard to tell the ration of Rams fans vs Pats fans. When we were going to the game and entered the stadium early, you could tell, unless LA fans were going to be their typical fashionably late, it was going to be a big Pats fan advantage.

At the game I was unsure if the noise affected our play. When I watched the game today on the tele it was apparent it was a home field crowd for the Pats. Even though technically we were the home team, we were playing on the road and I think we all know how tough it is to win on the road in the NFL.

Better get this on the rack before it disappears again. :)

GO RAMS!!!

I'm curious how much, if at all, the noise affected how we ran our offense. I'm sure it wasn't the main factor but i'm wondering if it was a factor at all, silent counts, stuff like that...

It was loud and by the body language I would say that it would difficult to hear if you were a receiver or maybe in the slot.

The crowd didn't get coached like in NOLA to be the loudest while in the huddle so that certainly wasn't an issue during the game.

Sometimes I think the numbers don't change some well know dynamics.

Like it is more difficult to win on the road.

Just watched both McVay's and Goff's press conferences today.

McVay of course is just such a special coach and person. A unique leader. It is certainly inspiring, encouraging and a joy to watch.

Goff's was not. After re-watching the game, couldn't see anything he wished he would have done different. Just didn't execute well.

I find this troublesome.

I wish the picture would fit better.

Tried changing its size but that didn't seem to work.

So mods have the god like power to make it fit better?

If you need permission for some unimaginable reason, you may proceed. :)

Much appreciated.

How was the stadium experience, feel like you got a sense of what our new digs will be like?

wow, i'm bummed you feel this way, and i mean that (not being flip), i've watched all of the pressers and didn't come away with anything close to that impression, altho it did seem that goff felt that he was yet again put in a position where he had to defend gurley, as the hacks seemingly tried everything they could to get him to divulge something about tg, that they could run with, misquote, or use out of context.
