Rams vs Cardinals Game Thread

Bottom post of the previous page:

Wonder what the deal is with McCreary. He has to be some kind of upgrade….

[NorCal RF]

Say what you want about Higbee and his injury history..but he moves the chains, he's a reliable blocker and receiver that Stafford trusts. We need him healthy to make any kind of push in the playoffs.

While I agree w much of this, today he’s had 5 drops. That’s what is hurting us. But then again, only Ram showing us they really want play today is Puka.

What really bothers me as I know we have the talent, so… imo, This is a coaching thing. Coaches need to fix this mental fiasco



Hope things are well King H

The team has had 5 drops…….

[OneMoreWin]

giving up 5-7 yds on each run. then DBs playing soft and getting burned. linemen charge and run like chickens without heads. not targeting the runner or qb just running at them then by them on an eluding rb or qb

offense not much in sync either

finally a run by rams for more than 5 yds

not very balanced on either side

we're all venting and afraid of what happens once the playoffs start and they play like this

Correct. My typo mistake. But you get my point

[NorCal RF]

How did the braintrust go into this season with this puny, unskilled secondary...

They thought they were better. Not being a smartass they actually did. I thought they would be……..

[NorCal RF]

TE’s again are not this team’s problem……..

[GSOT89]

amazing drive... great defensive stand and great offensive response!!! lets go Stafford!! that's what were talking about Rams..

good teams win close games, adversity!! LETS GO RAMS!!

[Cornell29]

Higbee being back was needed

[DVA_ram33]

Stafford wants his mvp

[OneMoreWin]

Welcome back TD Higbee

they should spend the rest of the game perfecting their running game.

on the D, play to tackle not to run past the play

[Cornell29]

TE’s again are not this team’s problem……..

Park hands are still a issue as of late.

[DelMar]

Man, give just 4-5 PUKA’s and we’d be undefeated. His talent, heart, and wanting to win. Kid ain’t perfect, but he’s the best Ram on the field in the past 3 games. And it’s not even close

Is Puka becoming the leader of our offense? Sure seems like it.

Good TD Higs! Bright spot

[Bulldawg]

I am officially done with McVay. Yep, I have said it.
After this season and we get blown out in the playoffs, it’s time for a completely different regime.
One that knows how to put together a physical, NFL roster and a coach that doesn’t hire his dufus friends as assistants.
I am done with Mr Hollywood Hair Gel.

At least wait until after we win the Super Bowl this year. :-)

Re enforcement's are on the way.

And they even had us all going for a lot of the season…

[Rampager66]

Higs today 5 rec 91 yards 1 TD

I wish the secondary played at half the level Parkinson does……..

[cdaly26]

At this point I just want to see them fight and win - doesn't have to be pretty

Damn, I love it when you talk dirty and sexy. You got it from mom. Proud dad moment here

SB or bust!

Well when you compare him to the secondary

[StlRam’79]

Yes thank you. all I am saying is you need more than Puca to move the ball and you have to spend your money in the right spot. Parkinson makes a lot

[FelixTheStonerCat]

We need some more DBs that'll punch their teammates in the face. This soft d bullshit aint getting in done.

[StlRam’79]

McCreary sighting!

[armyram]

Ok, getting some momentum… listen, you look at the sidelines, the Rams aren’t panicking like we are. They know each game is its own, just get to the playoffs. You saw the Panthers fans cheering because they sneaked in. We needed this game. Rams will be ready, didn’t think so 30 minutes ago but not throwing in the towel by any means

The secondary is horrible…….

Yes you have a point there!

[Utah Rams Fan]

You guys all suck….well most of you. How easily you turn on our team who is beating a team right now that they need to beat, all while trying to avoid injuries. We are missing key players who make this offense run. The longer our O has the ball the less the D will be out there. We just might put up 40 on these guys, just like I said before the game started. What do you want, a 100 point lead? Sheesh..enjoy our team, we are going to the playoffs and we need to rally around our team and they will play good football. Everybody will be back next week and it will make a large difference.

[Jacksnow]

Have you noticed that Corum and Williams don't fumble anymore? No jinx,

I don’t think I have turned on them but point noted….
