Bottom post of the previous page:

4-2 which is fine but the rams have been difficult to watch this year. They are constantly shooting themselves in the foot. I feel like they try to give every game away. It’s not the look of a team that is going to win the division.

it was an ugly W but it was a W so onto next week.

I will say thank you the Ravens OC is awful. the play calling for them at the end of the 1st half on the goal line was just plain awful

Yep. Why not give it to Henry 4 times? I watched this game at a sports bar and the dishwasher was wearing a Raven's shirt. He'd come out time to time and when that happened he just shook his head.

Regarding the kick, others are right to question the decision but the Raven's offense wasn't doing Jack. McVay didn't think they could drive 95 yards for a TD and he was right. Their failed drive with their 3rd string QB chewed up about 7 minutes.

Above in the red, might be the understatement of the season thus far...


I was sitting there yesterday when we got a 2 score lead and I kept thinking, this aint over till it's over... for Pete sakes, its these DAMN Rams.

Every game is just absolutely nerve-racking ... you all think I am kidding about having an oxygen tank around too...

yeah sometimes OC's just try to get a little too cute. I agree it would have been Henry 4 times. I blame Harbaugh for not saying anything in the moment after all he is the HC.

Also, Baltimore didn't throw downfield once all game IIRC. That occured to me after the game.

Exactly. They seem incapable of playing a clean game and putting together four quarters of good football. It hasn’t happened yet

they should have started Huntley obviously you can't know that prior to the game but the Rams would have had a hell of a time with him

On special teams yesterday there was a missed short fg, and a bad snap on the other but the ol held up much better. Special Teams is a mess right now

[DelMar]

And he also said this...

"Obviously, you guys are going to ask me about the (missed) field goal. I thought the protection was good. We gotta make the kick. You know, we ended up missing the kick. We ended up hitting the second one, not very clean(ly) right there. The snap felt like it was a little bit high."

so to me, this is a positive because at least Sean see's it and plans to address it. We shall see though

Karty has made less than 75 percent of his field goals this season, and just 87.5 percent of his extra points. While it's doubtful LA will change kickers before its Week 8 BYE, it's certainly something to note... and I dont think Sean will allow this to continue. IMO, London will be a deciding factor...

This is why I would fire Chase

Special Teams as an whole is a mess. Penalties for players being down the field, holding, not blocking on field goals, botched snaps. Enough is enough, Chase needs to go or needs a proven coach to be hired to help him.

We got away with sone bad coaching calls. bad drops, and some bad OL plays because the Ravens were so injured. The margin of error will be way less against better teams.

I’ve been thinking about just this, since the game today. And honestly, I can’t remember a year during McVays tenure, where the Rams were this sloppy.

From top to bottom. We’re so up and down, no continuity, lame execution, bone head calls, players giving up mid play, not wrapping up, brain farts and on and on… honestly, I’m surprised we’re not 1-5.

But here’s the crazy part…

we’re only 2-3 plays away from being 6-0. So I’m not sure if this is a testament if we’re contenders and we’re our own worst enemy OR if we are just really lucky… at this point, I’m a bit perplexed.

Del i so agree. I was thinking the sane thing. Very few games we almost or gave away the game by our own ineptitude. This team reminds me of bad teams i comnent on because of the attention to detail, not being mentally tough it was always other teams with a ton of drops, offsides penalties. Not sure what is going on this year.

This post epitimizes everything i feel about the Rams and why I am very skepitical about a deep playoff run because consistency and fewer mistakes is the road to the SB. I fear we will have that one game when all this shit rears its ugly head. Its ironic though that imo this is the best team since our SB appearance. QB playing great, top two wrs, solid RB minus fumbles, and stout defense except when they play soft ala SF game. Only glaring weakness is ST not including Evans.

[Slickjack]

To the OP, my sentiments exactly!
