Damn holding.

That is all she wrote. Mediocre game by the look-seers. Wolford was impressive and I think Allen is going to go the way of the big doof Mannion. Out the door.

Our second team D is atrocious.

Hopefully it's one of those things where we're really not showing the playbook and just running basic schemes and that when the real playbook is implemented, they'll start looking better.

Kevin Petersen returning from the IR all of last year looked great on that INT. So did Parker who got one too.

Does make the Rams a tough watch in the preseason.

Expect more of the same this week as the Rams play the Boys during the season and won't be showing them anything this preseason game

The game i look forward too the most is the opening day in Charlotte vs the Panthers. Just a 2hr drive for me but i'm damn near tempted to pay the 600 for 2 tix just to sit behind the visitor bench. I was able to do it at a cheaper price (100) to watch the rams where they were trash against the red skins when Dumbo Fisher was coach and Foles was QB.

What interests me most about that game is seeing if Carolina runs the same defense that the Pats did against us in the Super Bowl and if McVay learned how to counteract it instead of trying the same stuff all game that didn’t work.

Like I stated several times, I hope McVay has added the Jumbo package to counter the 46 defense because, without a doubt, we are going to see that D this year when we play other teams.

Good point UVA..it'll be interesting to see. If McVay has learned anything which he says he has based off of the previous interviews during the off season then i'd suspect he has a plan for that. If not then... there is reason for concern possibly.
