Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
I trust that Stafford and the O will figure it out when they again, much more than I trust Darnold to figure it out vs the Rams. Rams have owned Darnold going on two years now.brasilrams wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 5:01 pmSo what happens when we face them again later in the season or the playoffs?Cornell29 wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 4:49 pm Peter Schrager, the ESPN analyst who have covered the rams alot in the past said all week that Seattle has the D personnel and scheme to counter what the rams like to do.

Even if the Rams O struggle, I trust that the Rams will win ugly again. Its a division game between two of the best teams in the NFC. Nothing wrong with ugly wins in those circumstances

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
KW was running WELL in the first quarter , outside of that he couldn't do anything. He had some big runs in the first quarter that is why the average was 5.4 .therealheadslap75 wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 4:52 pmsee Brasil, they really didn't shut down the run we average 5.4 yards/carry.

Just unnnaceptable. You can't get schooled in the trenches like this. Their DL shut down the run and also pressured staff on almost every snap. Havenstein was looking TERRIBLE and losing his one and one every snap.
I think McVay and Stafford got too cute, scheme one guy your first read to get open and throw the ball in a short pass
We probably didn't have the ability to throw deep on third and long, but we could've thrown deep on first and second down, they didn't even try

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
I hope so. We escaped with a victory today. I also didn’t like the play-calling, and Hav needs to be benched for McLendon. He’s been a liability out there. As much as he’s a leader, his play is horrible right now.Cornell29 wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 5:03 pmI trust that Stafford and the O will figure it out when they again, much more than I trust Darnold to figure it out vs the Rams.

And I get it — an ugly win is still a win. I just don’t like seeing the offense play this badly because I think it could eventually cost us a crucial game. Performances like this usually concern me. Outside of the first quarter, it was that bad today

Seattle made adjustments and shut the rams running game down. Even KW struggled late game, he couldn't find any running room. Rams OL was overpowered in the trenches.

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
Seattle is very tough, and Stafford and Adams were not in sync like they have been the past month, but don’t confuse the Rams’ win with the Chargers’ loss today.
Let’s see what they bring against Tampa!

Niners escaped with a victory vs the rams when they played the 1st time and their team and fans could care less, they were excited.
Eagles escaped with a victory when they played the rams earlier this year and their team and fans were partying.
There are close games by good teams every week. Its all about the W for me. Now if Seattle sucked and the rams squeak by, I would be more concerned, but coming into this game some had Seattle as the best team in the NFL.
Squeaking by a team, that some had as the best team in the NFL, coming into this week, isn't a bad thing. Its the NFL, good teams squeak by bad teams every week, look at the Packers win over the Giants.

Win felt fine to me. Doesn’t have to be 50-nothing. Just find a way to get the dub. Just enjoy a huge division win.

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
It felt like the Colts game where I thought Seattle was the better overall team but their QB play is so bad that I just can’t see them being a contender. When he feels any rush he starts backing up and it’s just the absolute opposite of what you should do. I can’t believe Seattle gave him so much money. I know he’s had some good games this year but he’s a complete clown vs the Rams
Just looking at possible playoff opponents, Im taking the Rams over Seattle and the 49ers.
I’d take the Rams over the Bears. I don’t see Caleb Williams doing much against the Rams D.
I think the Eagles, Tampa, Lions, Packers are the only teams capable of beating the Rams. Eagles in Philly again would be really tough. The Lions in LA would be tough bc I don’t see HFA being that great since the Lions are a dome team themselves. And Tampa/Packers probdbly be close games even in LA. It’s good the Rams should stay ahead of the Packers for HFA

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
Peter Schrager from espn and JourdanRodrigue was saying all week that Seattle D was built to stop what the rams like to do. Both who I repect. Thats one of the reasons why I expected the Rams O to struggle. The key was to rattle Darnold, which they did.

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
Eagles and Lions are top NFC teams and their O is struggling so far today.
Rams offense is still as good as any of the NFC offenses. None of the NFC teams are playing great on offense every single week.

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
of course you're gonna take it, you don't have a choice, this isn't about needing the Rams to beat the Seahawks by 30 points, this is about analyzing whether this team is capable of winning the Super Bowl. So for me when I'm disappointed in the Rams performance and they still win it's because I question whether they'll be able to perform at a high-level against some of the other teams in the NFL.. I want home-field advantage, I don't want to travel and I want a week off.Ramsfan08ny wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 4:31 pm Saying a win against a team youre tied with, for the best record in the league "feels like a loss" is ridiculous. It was a heavy weight slugfest.
I'll repeat what I asked in another thread. Do you think Seattle feels that this was a "good loss"?
Perhaps the top 2 teams in the league head to head. If you win, its a good win, and you move on.

We all seen the Eagles, Seattle, Green Bay, Lions and Tampa offense struggle.
Rams are just as good as any of those teams and are in the mix for HFA. I judge the rams by the teams they are in SB competition with and right now the rams are playing just as well as any of those other contenders.

Philly? That was on this team after dominating them the first 2+ quarters. Their offense isn’t good right now.
Detroit? They could have 4 losses if this score stays……..
GB? Chicago? Oh ok lol…….
And I could care less about AFC. That means SB…….
Again today was as good of a team in this league and we won………

We beat what many had as the #1 ranked team in the league right now. One can nitpick all they want but the bottom line Rams made more plays that Seattle and it’s why they won………
I guess if we can’t resurrect the 85 Bears it won’t ever be good enough……..

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
Shit happens .. every week. The Rams were outplayed, and Seattle had the ball for an ENTIRE quarter more than we did.
However the team that RARELY picks off anyone, got FOUR, exploited a QB prone to turnovers and flipped those 'Hawks for a win. Not the first time in NFL history and won't be the last. Just take the win and be happy. It's not Seattle has a shit D or O.
Feels to me we got lucky, couple, three times a season you need those type of games to be wins

Re: THIS WIN FEELS LIKE A LOSS
This. We are not complaining that the Rams won, but how they let a commanding lead slip away and almost get beat in the last second. The Rams are better than that, but seem to lose momentum and or focus and let teams they dominate back in the game.therealheadslap75 wrote: ↑November 16th, 2025, 7:00 pmof course you're gonna take it, you don't have a choice, this isn't about needing the Rams to beat the Seahawks by 30 points, this is about analyzing whether this team is capable of winning the Super Bowl.
