Predictions Time

[Retroram52]

We will be 7-9, 6-10, or at best 8-8.

 

[Battlelyon]

These poll answers are looking pretty good.

 

[UVA_Guy81]

Well, not sure how far off my 5-11 prediction will be but my thinking that they'll start 3-0 is already out the window.

 

[27mtrcougar]

Rams win today!! the Seahags Oline is worse then ours. our Dline should dominate! I see a defensive TD for us for sure. Rams 16- 12

 

[UnrealTerm04]

This should be a Rams win, but will it be a Rams win? We'll find out.

 

[zeke2829]

I predict that our MVP of the game will be Johnny Hecker....... again!

 

[Vitamike]

I am always optimistic, so with that in mind, I came up with 9-7, with the Rams going 6-2 in their final 8 providing hope for next year even though they miss the playoffs once again.

Sept. 12, at (1-0) San Francisco 49ers, (Mon), 10:20 Loss (0-1)
(Tough close loss on the road for MNF, Rams should have won easily as mistakes cost them)

Sept. 18, (1-1) Seattle Seahawks, 4:05 Win (1-1)
(A bounce back game as Gurley has a career game vs Seattle and the defense is ready for the Hawks!)

Sept. 25, at (1-2) Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 4:05 Loss (1-2)
(More road blues for the rookie QB & company)

Oct. 2, at (3-1) Arizona Cardinals, 4:25 Loss (1-3)
(Again, too much for the rookie on the road)

Oct. 9, (2-3) Buffalo Bills, 4:25. Win (2-3)
(Home sweet home, the long cross country trip, trips up the Bills. Rams win a close defensive game)

Oct. 16, at (2-4) Detroit Lions, 1:00. Win (3-3)
(Finally a road win! The Defense gets the game ball)

Oct. 23, (4-3) New York Giants (London), 9:30 AM. Loss (3-4)
(The 11 hour flight takes it toll, Rams look bad in London once again)

BYE Thank God for BYE weeks!!

Nov. 6, (6-2) Carolina Panthers, 4:05. Loss (3-5)
(The bye didn't help, Rams lose a close one at home against the AFC Champs)

Nov. 13, at (5-5) New York Jets, 1:00. Win (4-5)
(Second road win, Rams win take the squeaker, look to have turned a corner with solid play)

Nov. 20, (3-6) Miami Dolphins, 4:05. Win (5-5)
(Playing at Home feels right, specially against East Coast teams! Gurley goes off!)

Nov. 27, at (5-6) New Orleans Saints, 1:00. Win (6-5)
(Defense shuts down the Saints and the Rams have enough offense & finally get above .500!)

Dec. 4, at (8-4) New England Patriots, 1:00. Loss (6-6)
(Rams still not ready to hang with the big boys & get embarrassed by the Pats once again)

Dec. 11, (7-6) Atlanta Falcons, 4:25. Win (7-6)
(Goff feeling more comfortable at home, lights up the Falcons defense. The Rams find themselves in a decent position for a wild card spot!)

Dec. 15, at (9-5) Seattle Seahawks (Thu), 8:25. Loss (7-7)
(The National stage is still too much for Goff and company, especially on the road in Seattle. This game proves to be the game that virtually eliminates the Rams and lifts the Hawks in the NFC Wild Card race.)

Dec. 24, (4-11) San Francisco 49ers (Sat), 4:25. Win (8-7)
(Goff redeems himself from the MNF loss in Week 1 and gives a nice Christmas present to all Rams fans dominating their Rival! Rams on the outside looking in but still in the playoff hunt)

Jan. 1, (12-4) Arizona Cardinals, 4:25 Win (9-7)
(Cardinals win the division the week prior and have nothing to play for resting their starters, the Rams win easily but fail to make the playoffs)

Note: All records listed are post game match-up records.

The comments may not be exactly right, but so far, I'm two for two on wins and losses!

I hope I'm wrong about the Bucs game next week, we should absolutely win that game.

 

[Jermaine133]

The lambs always play the seahawks tough, been the staple the last few years as we pretty much know their offense. Yeah beat seattle and blow the rest of the season like normal. 2-14, with dip shit and Stan the bitch giving him an extension. While we are at it, 2017 prediction with no draft picks or quality FA's with Fisher still the coach improvement....4-12.

Man, that December schedule is brutal. With that December we are pretty much assured of another losing record.

I had the Rams 4-3 at this point, but only picked the Giants and Bucs games correctly lol. The balance of my original predictions:

Nov. 6, Carolina Panthers, 4:05. L
Nov. 13, at New York Jets, 1:00. W
Nov. 20, Miami Dolphins, 4:05. W
Nov. 27, at New Orleans Saints, 1:00. W
Dec. 4, at New England Patriots, 1:00. L
Dec. 11, Atlanta Falcons, 4:25. W
Dec. 15, at Seattle Seahawks (Thu), 8:25. L
Dec. 24, San Francisco 49ers (Sat), 4:25. W
Jan. 1, Arizona Cardinals, 4:25 L

Still looks somewhat reasonable. I expect the Falcons to be bottomed out by then; they are already showing cracks. Saints game could go either way, as could the Panthers game really. That D hasn't been the same this year.

 

[Vitamike]

Still on track with my 3-4 Rams record prediction through 7 weeks, even though I have only picked 2 games right so far.

I have us losing in Week 9 before going on a 3 game win streak.

 

[Jermaine133]

4-12.

Up next? The New York JETS!!

Jeff Fisher will really be hanging by a thread after this loss!

 

[27mtrcougar]

Fishers first 8 games With the Rams. He is consistent.

2012 3-5
2013 3-5
2014 3-5
2015 4-4
2016 3-5

If you ain't mediocre, you are no Jefff Fisher

 

[Retroram52]

Pathetic! The drama queen is in over his head. Period!

 

[Vitamike]

Stan needs to open up his wallet and get this guy after he wins the National Title this season.

He would get a chance to move back to sunny California, beat up on the 49er twice a year and face off with his PAC12 rival in Carrol twice a year too!

Keep Greg of course!

Up next? The New York JETS!!

Jeff Fisher will really be hanging by a thread after this loss!

Could be facing Bryce Petty, since Fitz sprained his knee this weekend.

See Jeff, other teams use THEIR backup QBs!
