Prediction Rams-Bears

[Rambunctious]

A few weeks ago I would not have given the Rams much of a chance...but today I'm expecting them to win this one. Stacy is rested and ready to tear it up. And the Rams are at home and well rested. Also Fisher has had 10 days to get his Beat Da Bears game plan drilled into his players heads.

The Bears can't stop the run for the life of them. Just got run all over by the worst rushing team in football.

Stacy will run wild, and McCown will come back down to earth on the road against a tough D.

Rams 37 Bears 20

I can't see the Rams scoring less than 30, barring a SUPER inspired performance from this front seven. Which is doubtful.

Hope I'm wrong, but it honestly won't be terrible for this team to just be put out of their misery. In this banged up state, this is the worse a Bears team has been in a while.

 

[Silas]

Always the optimist I have the Rams winning 24-20. Rams CANNOT lose another game.

It's very odd. For as long as I can remember the Bears have been a smash mouth, play great defense and win ugly kind of team. These days they are like the 2000 Ram, LOL. They score on anybody but they can't stop anybody. Certainly not your father's Bears teams. However I can't see the Rams scoring 37 points on anybody. Yes I know it just happened two weeks ago but that was kind of a fluke. A defensive TD and a 98 yard punt return. How ofthen does that happen?

"Rams CANNOT lose another game."

That is correct but unfortunately for them they still have a game against the Saints and both Frisco and Seattle on the road. It would be nice but I just can't see them running the table.

Yeah, they are out of the playoffs this year. No way the run the table, and that's what it would require.

That being said, lots of good opportunities for the kids to play and get experience. If we can see more consistent games from them, it will be a really good sign for next year. So lots to play for - amazing upside to this team considering how incredibly young they are at the skill positions.

I hope the Rams win but historically we are usually flat after the bye week. Other than that, I suck at prediction details.

I don't expect them to run the table. I just want to see them win 2-3 more and at least be competitive in the others. No more of these games like they had against Dallas and San Fran. They have to get beyond those embarrassing blowout loses if they are going to take it to the next level.

I was 13-2 in my weekly football pool last week and I'm picking the Rams this week. I hope my (and the Rams) good fortune continues this week.

DA BEARS 28
RAMS - 13

I have the grill prepped and ready for some crow just in case.

Not sure the Bears are anymore in fear of your D and your pass rushers considering who we have played this year already. Raven's #3 sacks in the NFL, Cincinnati's vaunted D line, Detroit's front 7 twice (losses I know)... I don't think I will worry about your pass rush. It wouldn't surprise me if you have zero sacks Sunday. That may or may not translate into a win.

Our O has played far above the D this year, curse you injuries... Teams have run on us for sure, but you have to do more than just run, unless your names is AP and your team colors are purple.

I like my Bears in this one, low scoring game 21 to 17.

Edit: Good luck on Sunday, may the best team win, and for goodness sake no injuries... on either side.

Forte and Brandon Marshall are the 2 guys that can exploit the Rams defense in the passing game. The Bears will get their yards. The Rams just have to find a way to bend but not break.

Jeffrey and Bennett have to be accounted for as well.

Im not going to say the Rams D line cant or wont do well...but NC is correct that the Bears O line has been tested already.

 

[Silas]

The Rams D-Line is one of their strong points, maybe the strong point of the team. Chicago's QB better have a quick release or be able to scramble well.

On the other hand, the Rams' QB needs to do the same.

A few years ago this game would have been a Bears' blow-out, but not now. The Rams are making strides whether they win this game or not.

 

[NCChiFan]

I agree blh, I don't believe St. Louis fans understand that Alshon our other Wr, has almost as many yards as Marshall catching the ball, but with like 30 fewer catches.

McCown doesn't have the quickest release, but he does scramble very well.

Either way, your pass rush isn't really the biggest concern. The Bears line has been pretty damn good in pass protection outside of one game.

Go Rams!! Beat the Bears and make us smile!!

Close enough.

Our D sucks a big bag of dicks.
