I'm here retro every day just tired of something. Great win.

Next week Buffalo comes to town. Another challenge at home. See everyone then.

 

[Chilipepper]

Another great win. When Rams get the running game going and I believe the Rams will be a bonafide contender. Defense is getting better and better every week. Zuerlein is making his kicks this season and Case Keenum is not bad. GO GURLEY!

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Rams have rebounded big from the awful season opener with 3 straight wins!!!!

 

[Vitamike]

I would've been alot more nervous on that last drive if we were still facing Palmer...

Both of them, but maybe you're right it could have been just the first one if you know what I mean.

Damn I so happy!

My Bruins won, my Rams won and I won my money pool too!

It's hardly ever won before the SNF final!

I went 10-3 ATS only losing with NE, Indy and SD!

 

[Vitamike]

Case Keenum is not bad.

6-3 As the Rams starter!

 

[bluepigpen]

That should be a winner Vita, Case has some balls. No reason to rush Goff.

 

[Vitamike]

Paxton Lynch got forced into the game and looked dominating. Denver is 4-0.

Yep, had a TD too!

It seems every QB drafted this year will get an NFL TD before the No. 1 pick, that is if Case has anythng to say about it!

 

[Vitamike]

That should be a winner Vita,

No problem blue, funny is good!

You guys realize, in games where the Rams have scored a touchdown, Quick has 3 TD's in 2 games!

True!!! But we REALLY need to get Gurley going!!!

 

[Retroram52]

Gurley got going in the second half just enough to keep the Cards honest because when they started loading the box with 9, we went to the pass to Kendricks mostly. So, like we used Austin in the first half to occupy Petersen, we used Gurley in the second half to get the passing game more confident while coming back to Gurley to continue to keep him going. It all worked pretty well except for the stupid play-calling by Boras at times.

If this team wants to win then they must throw the football...we cannot run the same stupid run plays for 1 2 yards...and expect a 3rd and 8 with a 5 yd pass. We always play division opponents the hardest. If Gurley can't get the yards on the ground then give him the yards as a WR!

He did, but I think you know what I mean Retro...And no, I'm not blaming him, I blame the O-line for a lack of execution... However, the Cards do have a talented, well-coached D-line, kinda like ours...

GO RAMS! A win today would change their world...

^^This!^^

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Next game, we should come out passing on EVERY first down...Defenses are expecting Gurley on first down every damn time and they're right... Why not play fake and pass short for 4 or 5 yards on first? Of course, 6 to 8 yards would be better

I watched the game on NFL replay because this area televised the 9ers game. So we went to a family picnic and I just finished watching the GAME! Rams in 1st place, great game and I'm shitfaced

 

[Rambunctious]

Rams sit alone in 1st place in the NFC west did anyone see that coming?
