When some teams are beginning to enter into the window of the start 'em and sit 'em phase of the season, the Rams are going to try to get back on track against another decent defense. After that implosion by the Rams on Offense last Sunday night versus the Bears, we go home to host the Eagles who lost to the Caboys in an overtime game. The Eagles are one-game under .500 and are just about out of the playoff race. Maybe we can catch them tired or something.

WE need to get back on track on Offense starting with Goff and getting him out of his apparent funk and then everyone else including Gurley, Whitworth, Thomas, Zuerlein, and McVay. That Bears game was one of the more clueless games he called this year and he has admitted as much. We all know what Goff did with his two fumbles, 4 INTs, and many passes thrown fizzling to the ground or behind the open guy missing the receiver like he had a bad Warner thumb or something.

Clearly Goff misses Cooper Kupp and Gurley misses Brown as Gurley hasn't been the same since his ankle injury and Brown's injury that got him placed on IR along with Kupp. Gurley needs to get back on track as he had a some poor attempts at running and he dropped a wide-open pass Sunday night like Thomas. I am not sure what is up with with Whitworth but he had a false start again on Sunday night and and we are beginning to see more and more of Noteboom. Of course, Zuerlein missed a FG that would have closed the gap to 9-15.

One piece of good news is the defense is playing way-better and they kept us in the game Sunday night. Perhaps they will continue their march to dominance and hopefully the offense will have selective amnesia about the Bears game along with a better overall game-call by genius boy. I think we will struggle a bit but return to the win column as we enter into the last three games of this season.

Make a note: The game is another Sunday nighter starting at 5:30pm PST as we again have to endure that idiot Chris dipshit Collinsworthless!

Looks like Wentz might not play in this one. But it might not matter if our offense doesn’t start getting back in a groove. Hope that they do a lot of blitzing to Goff during practice so he has an idea of what to expect since teams are now going to take the Bears blueprint to neutralize our offense.

We need to return to play-action and quick screens to Gurley to neutralize any blitzing, something that disappeared in Chicago. That will take the pressure off Goff to stand in the pocket and hold the ball too long, something he has been doing a lot of lately.

If we could just get Suh and Brockers out of their apparent self-inflicted sleep.

Both of them have been a non factor.... Brockers I can understand as he isn't a pass rusher, but Suh on the other hand there are some question marks; i honestly think the scheme is rendering these guys ineffective. I would like to see the other rookie LB's to see what they got; i mean it couldn't possibly hurt.

Wentz is fast becoming an injury liability for the Iggles. HAs a broken vertebrae this time around. You might be right on the assertion of the Phillips scheme hindering players like Suh, Jermaine. Another wait and see issue but we should not be discussing this sort of thing this late in the season and it could be one of our weaknesses that contributes to this year's version of one-and-done.

Rams D-line needs to get after Foles tonight or he will pick us apart, a heavy dose of pressure will take the Eagles out of their game.

They are jacking with AD early keeping him off-base but our D is doing better even though the Eagles are going where we are not.

We are tackling way-better, but we still are giving-up big yardage on a more less-than-common basis. We are down by three. Let's see if our offense and Goff are out of their collective funk.

We need to ratchet up the pressure. Now our offense has got to get out of preseason mode.

Third and one. This drive looks like how they should have started in Chicago. Gurley, Gurley, and more Gurley!
