Looks like will win this one… but let me tell you Norcal, I’ve been sweating bullets, as this is has been the ugliest win of the year.

The UGLIEST. Hands down

well considered what they went through the last two weeks...on a short week, long travel...I WILL GLADLY TAKE AN UGLY WIN!!!!

Rams have run for 160 and passed for 197...

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 12:55 pm**

In the world, that should be enough for a win.

Not there yet though in this game…………

I'd take it,

Ugly win after covid disaster last week and having to go on the road after a short rest, against a solid vikes team.

I'd take it.

First place

As usual, Rams qb has an bad day, after a short week in the road, after overall having a great season and many start trashing him as if nearly every qb in the nfl hasn't had at least one horrible game this year.

One thing for sure this board is consistent
Stafford stinks, Mcvay stinks. Said by many on this board during most games, all the while the rams have the 2nd best record in the nfl.

Find me the team that is playing great football every week? Find me the team taht hasn't had a few clunkers.

Maybe Greeen Bay and Tampa who are both led by Hall of Famers. Wait even Brady had a huge fluker. Ok Green Bay

He has to stop throwing into coverage Cornell. That has nothing to do with current record. As others have said live for another down……….

Don’t get a mulligan for a bad throw 3-4 weeks from now……………

kneeldown & games over, we win!!

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:03 pm**

looks like the Cheats are going down today...warms the heart...

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:03 pm**

That’s the game. On to Baltimore

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:04 pm**

VJ secures it!

Very nice.

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:04 pm**

Learned for last on side kick disaster. Actually had receivers and RB’s on field for this one…………

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:06 pm**

I guess we can win in Minnesota after all...
11-4 baby...
Go Rams!

Can I just add something here 29,

Today, I said that Stafford has absolutely stunk. Because he has today. Sean finally started running the ball and now we produced the win with it.

But this isn’t the usual Stafford we all know, that is why I am so perplexed. I don’t think a lot of people complain about Stafford every game… But today he was just awful.

Nobody said McVay stinks, everybody just stunned how he gets away from the run when the run appears to be working. He kept Vikings in the game calling pass plays so deep in our own territory. Our defense bailed us out several times today…. Honorable mention to ST’s. As for Stafford, he definitely crapped the bed. What blows my mind is everyone is dumping on Morris when the defense let up 0 points in first half. Not putting that 3 on them. Once again, like last week, the defense won the game and the offense did JUST enough!

Yup even when qb play is horrible, Rams can find ways to win games on the road after a short week.

First place in West, and tied for 2nd best record in nfl.

No they didn't use the word "stink", but it was easily implied. Please don't make me pull up posts and thread from the very short past. There are bench Stafford threads, move on from Mcvay threads, fire the front office threads. Rams aren't going to win another game, threads. Rams will only win 9 games this year threads. Rams have no shot at winning the NFC West threads.

Look at that, Rams are now 1st place in NFC West and tied for 2nd best overall record in NFL.

On to Stafford and his horrible day.
Only having 2 full practices in the last 2 weeks can do that to a timing offense, especially Stafford. For example that Titans game came after Stafford didn't do any full practices all week.

The D came through and so did the STs. Good team can win even when one of the 3 facets of the game isn't clicking.

I agree with all of this except I think ST's was the No 1 unit today.

Gay 3 FG's 3 EP's, 4 TB's... Held Vikes Kr's to 16 TOTAL yards on the other 3 KO returns

Hek had 2 punts, one 55 yards the other 53, for a 54 yd avg, 1 was inside the 20, the other to the Vikes 22, both were fair caught = 0 return yards.

And recovered the game clinching onside kick...

Rams had 2 PR's for 75yards and a TD and no KO returns because the Vike kicker had all 6 kicks for Touchback. This is the only ST's stat the Rams didn't win
They were almost flawless and IMO ended up being the difference in the game.

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:29 pm**

Congrats to our boys!! Wasnt pretty but they still got the win! Now on to Baltimore!

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 1:35 pm**

A sign of a good team is they win the ugly ones

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 2:04 pm**

Stafford was a liability today.

Rams rushed for 159 yards.

Rams D held Vikes to only 2 of 12 on 3rd down conversions.

We won today by our running game, defense and ST making up for Stafford crapping the bed.

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 2:05 pm**

A win is a win.

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 2:24 pm**

Rams took care of business. Some things were not pretty but special teams stepping up, running game and the play of the defense were very encouraging.
Rams followed a No Win November with a UNDEFEATED December.
Enjoy the Win. On to Baltimore.

Staff is huge upgrade over goff , but I am not sure he is a long term solution ( say 5 year ) . And it is not one ugly game by him now , it is FOUR . ( AZ 1, 49ers , titans , vikes ) .

Pretty much and I am not even gonna talk about the picks because only ONE of those 3 picks was his fault , but he kept missing a wide open OBJ all the time , not to mention all the under throws and over throws . Just a terrible game by him . I guess he can forget about all that MVP talk now .

I agree with you on the negative threads, especially when we went through the November skid. Hell, I’ve posted a similar thread as you about all the naysayers. I think I’m one of the only few supporters of Morris. Saying that, lately our defense has been our strong point. IMO only, McVay loves to win by the pass, even if it isn’t working. Yes, Stafford was off today, so go with your strength and don’t force the pass deep in your own territory. As for that one interception for Stafford when he was trying to make a play, no excuses, terrible choice, luckily only ending up in 3 points. Deep throw coming out at half, do more to set it up. Sorry Cornell but the offensive plan was frustrating to say the least.

I will agree with you. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen STs ball out like that!

No argument there. I wanted the rams to run more too

Posted: **December 26th, 2021, 10:06 pm**

Of the four teams that played last Tuesday (Rams, Eagles, Seahawks, WFT), only the Eagles put up reasonably good numbers. But they had the benefit of playing the Giants.

I think, given all the bumps in the road, we did reasonably well these last two weeks. If we escaped with only minor injuries to Jones and Allen, while compiling a realistic list of things we still need to work on, then these last two games will make us a better team in the long run. Bumps and all. Plus the special teams and run game are looking pretty legit.

Eyes on the prize, gentlemen.
