Game Thread: Week 1, Buffalo Bills @ Los Angeles Rams, Thursday Night Football, SoFi Stadium, Thursday, 09/08/2022, 5:20PM, PST

All that praise about Atwell during training camp, and he drops a pass and McVay doesn’t even bother running any jet sweeps.

That pick looks worse and worse every day, especially when you watch Creed play at a pro bowl level.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Anyone miss Woods yet?

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Stafford did pick up where he left off last season in one thing though- INT’s

3 the first game. He only threw 17 in 17 games last season. Looks like he is trying to top that this season.

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

If we can't get the running game going this season, we are in BIG trouble. Also, Stafford has to be more accurate, he looked ridiculous at times tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

It is high time that McShit-fer-Brains turns the game playing-calling duties over to Liam Coen, the OC because McShit-fer-Brains now has Jay Gruden in-house as a consultant. He has two very good offensive minds that can do the job. Just stop with this bullshit of trying to get more recognition as an offensive-minded genius and be the HC. McShit-fer-Brains proved again this evening that he was not prepared with anything special in the play-calling department and he did not utilize some of his weapons at his disposal like Robinson and where was the hottest WR on our roster, McCutcheon?

I know Coen would have focused more on the run game as he did in the pre-season when McShit-fer-Brains turned the play-calling duties over to Coen. Our run-game needs serious work or we are going to be 5-12 this year. And this Atwell thing has become a complete obsessive cluster eff-job. Look, just admit that you got full of yourself and effed-up big time and cut this little turd. Sign OT Eric Fisher to take his place.

Little turd fast receivers just don't work in the NFL. We have had three of them and none of them have worked. Two of them are out of Football and the Third should be. Tavon Austin was cut from these same Bills in the preseason and DeSean Jackson was released from the Dolphins at the end of last year after being released from the Raiders. Atwell should be shown the door tomorrow. He is a complete waste of a roster spot.

Sign OT Eric Fisher to take his place. Put Noteboom at Right Guard replacing Shelton next to Havenstein and start Fisher at Left Tackle! Get with the program ya flippin dumbass or you are going to throw away a season just because you are trying to be some sort of legend in your own mind!!

 

[Jermaine133]

they cleared some cap so maybe that is the plan because we don't need OBJ if we can't protect the QB. Noteboom is not the answer at LT, IDK if Dave Edwards is either at G, he was getting beat left and right last night as well. RG needs to be replaced immediately. All in all there was a ton of pressure coming from the left and up the middle as the pocket just collapsed. The 3 ints in game one is not a good sign.

All in all i'm pissed because things could have gotten fixed but we got 2 dip shits that think just because they won a chip everything is going to fall in place. We need some dawgs on that OL, otherwise there will be multiple 3 int games with 50 yds rushing.

 

[UnrealTerm04]

L.A. is a basketball zone. Plain and simple.

Yet media portrayed St. Louis as not a football city... LOL. Shitty product on the field for years, what do you expect?

 

[UnrealTerm04]

Stafford looked like every inch of his right arm was bothering him last night. His throws were inaccurate and had no strength in them. Throwing ducks all day.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Rams' McVay: 'Humbling' defeat starts with me

Sean McVay pointed a finger at himself when asked about his team's 31-10 season-opening loss Thursday night to the Bills. "We weren't ready to go ... There were a lot of decisions that I made that I felt like didn't put our players in good enough spots."

www.espn.com

Here we go again. Same old rhetoric but nothing changes.

He had 7 months to prepare for this game, and that’s what he came up with. Completely ignore your new WR, keep throwing to Skow instead. No imagination in the run game whatsoever.

Just a garbage effort all around.

And a guy supposedly know for his halftime adjustments, they got shut out- no adjustments whatsoever.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea ALR. I have my fill of McShit-fer-Brains' mea culpas and "woe is me" bullshit after defeats like last evening. You would think he has learned his LESSONS, but he has not changed a bit. He has all of these resources at his disposal but he is too full of shit and pride to let go of some things and trust his coaches and be the HC.

For cryin'-out-loud. Stop being a damn stubborn dumbass and you and Snead get your heads out of your asses and address the O-line, the right arm of Stafford, your porous defense, and your complete bullshit game-plan IF THERE EVER IS ANY!!!

 

[Retroram52]

BTW, if we had all of our exposed problems even half fixed, we could have won that game last night or at least had been closer because the Bills had three TOs and they didn't play extremely well in the First Half. We were tied with them at one point and then they got into a rhythm and due to our bullshit defense, the game was over before anyone could blink.

The Rams are going to need to move Noteboom to Left Guard, Edwards to Right Guard, get rid of Allen all together (he remains a sieve) sign Eric Fisher as the new LT and move Coleman Shelton to Center!

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Yeah, they just signed Noteboom to that big contract, and he looked terrible last night.

Allen is back to his old form as opposed to his 2021 form. Edwards needs to never be on the field.

The OL is a mess as I said it would be and is abundantly clear the Rams FO lack of addressing the situation has come back to bite them big time.

How badly this team needs a Humphries right now.

 

[Retroram52]

A big portion of Allen playing so well in 2021 was the help he got from Corbett. Corbett covered-up a lot of that dumbasses weaknesses and it was evident again last night that Allen is and we always be a joke at the Center position. It also clearly demonstrated that McShit-fer-Brains doesn't know a damn thing about O-lineman and how to draft top notch O-lineman in the draft or even in FA.

 

[chy1127]

Woof. This years wake up call came in week 1 where last year it was week 4 when they lost to the Cardinals by 17. Lesson 1, being last years SB Champion gets you nothing the following year. Several observations.

1. The Bills are fricking good and came to play.
2. Long stinks. But why no safety help deep.
3. Either Ramsey got lost or thought he had safety help deep. Again where was a safety.
4. Stafford's best play was his tackle on Basham. Maybe move him to LB.
5. The bad play of the O-Line, no running game, games plan, secondary receivers, etc.
6. On a positive note, Kupp is a stud.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree chy! The one guy who picked-up where he left off months ago was Cooper Kupp!!

 

[Retroram52]

The Rams had better get their deficiencies fixed by Week 3 because we play the Cardinals in Arizona and they are vastly improved like the Bills are.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Donald had a good first half, was invisible the entire 2nd half.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

The Rams had better get their deficiencies fixed by Week 3 because we play the Cardinals in Arizona and they are vastly improved like the Bills are.

With the way the Rams played last night, I would be surprised if the Falcons give them a run for their money.

 

[Retroram52]

I was thinking the same thing ALR.
