Fuck it, again. Haha. Last time I started a game thread we slapped the Vikings around. Here’s to good mojo

Add to the thread y’all.

Current Vegas odds per Vegas Insider:
Rams +3
O/U 50

Like most Rams games this year, who knows. It could be any result. Saquan is gonna be a problem both in the run and pass game. Their WRs are legit, their tE is good, OL playing well, QB is talented. Their defense has been playing well of late.

This game is probably the toughest of the year so far. If the OL holds up and the correct Stafford shows up, the offense should be able to score. The screen game against our D scares me. They are much better at it than NE and the Pts schooled the coverage in the screen game. Rozeboom and Speights I’m looking at YOU.

Would love for this to be the game the O jumps on a team early and the defense plays with at least a 7-10 point lead.

Excited for Sunday’s matchup is an understatement for me. It’s McVay vs Fangio, a bright and up-and-coming DL against the biggest test they’ve had to date, it’s Stafford’s former backup against Shula, it’s two teams that are a combo of the NFL’s future and its still-lingering past. I LOVE IT.

Prime Time again! SNF. Feels like we have a lot of prime this season.

Eagles at Sofi...there will be a lot of Philly fans in the stands.

The Rams and Eagles have played 44 Games since 1937. Philly leads the series 23-20-1.


Let's get this Win!

When you look at who they have beaten, their schedule has been very soft. Their two losses were to Atlanta and the Bucs. They aren't the team that played in the SB at the end of the 2022 season.

They still play a lot of RPO because that's the kind of QB they have like AZ. The problem with playing a lot of RPO is if they get behind big early it becomes less and less effective because teams simply play them pass first.

If the Ram offense can wake TFU and not wait until the second half to score, they can walk away with a win. The absolutely worst thing the Rams can do is allow them to hang around like they normally do. Get out ahead and Ram defense is good enough to limit the damage the Birds can do.

Two weeks later, the Rams play the Bills followed by the Niners, which will probably decide whether the Rams make the playoffs. If the Rams beat the buzzards, it's big because they are an NFC team that factors into tiebreakers. It will be huge if the Rams can go into the Bills game on a three-game win streak.

The Rams finish with the Birds (the pigeons and sea chickens). If the Rams go undefeated like they are capable of doing over the next 4 weeks I think they sweep the final games and take the division it will make them 12-5 and the 2 or 3 seed.

It's why I'm saying if they can sweep the rest of the season it sets the Rams up very well going into the playoffs.

Zero% chance the Rams go undefeated the rest of the way. There isnt an easy game on the schedule (travel to NO and NY) and I expect all of them to be a fight. We can probably only lose 2 more games (maybe 3) and that will be a massive task.

All the focus should be on the Eagles, that is all that matters at this point. It would big if we can somehow pull this game game out. Can we contain Hurts, we have struggled all season with mobile QB's. Can we keep Saquon in check, will they kill us in the screen game. Oh yeah they have AJ Brown. We got our work cut out for us.

I'd go so far as to say we can afford to lose one more game max, and it CAN NOT be inside the division. With the Cards easy remaining schedule we can't afford to drop any games and hope to keep pace, especially with both the Niners and Seahawks nipping at our heels.

Not going to lie… I fully expect them to mop the floor with us. But I’ll be there with all the green peeps doing what I can.

So you think the Cards are gonna beat the Rams at Sofi, Seattle 2x, San Fran, and the Vikings in Minnesota? Patriots too. I think this thing could really change a lot. The division games are obviously huge. SF is 1-3 so at best 3-3.

If the Rams win 6 of 7 they will be in the playoffs no matter what the Cards do, as they will catch Green Bay or Washington.

The division could beat each other up, 9-8 could win it.

The Rams will have some special guests in attendance on Sunday night when they host the Eagles at SoFi Stadium. They’re celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 1999 Rams team that won Super Bowl XXXIV against the Titans, welcoming back several members of the championship squad.

Kurt Warner, Isaac Bruce, Orlando Pace, Marshall Faulk, Torry Holt and Mike Jones will all be participating in the festivities this weekend, ending with a prime-time game against the Eagles at SoFi.

“The history of the Rams cannot be written without names like Bruce, Faulk, Holt, Pace and Warner, and the history of the NFL cannot be written without The Greatest Show On Turf and The Tackle,” Rams president Kevin Demoff said in the release. “As their legacies live on in Canton, in their hometowns and across the world thanks to on-field heroics and a Super Bowl championship, their impact continues to be felt in communities across the country through their commitment to important causes. We look forward to teaming up with our ’99 team and our partners to give back this weekend and we are thrilled to celebrate one of the greatest teams in league history on Sunday Night Football.”
