Game Thread: Week 17, Phoenix Cardinals @ The Los Angeles Rams, Sunday, 01/03/20, 1:25 PM PST

I wonder how bad the players want to win. I don't think they care one way or the other and maybe in this weird season they would just like to go on vacation and call it over. Lets face it whoever wins it all gets this.


With their trophy.

The next guy they need to cut right now is Brian Allen. Useless PODS.

 

[Retroram52]

Austin Blythe should be benched. He got beat badly yesterday again and I think he has already left for the off-season.

 

[Retroram52]

Looks like Goff is probably done for the year. The right thumb was broken.

Rams QB John Wolford will get a chance to prove himself if Jared Goff can’t play

John Wolford has never taken an NFL snap, but he could be thrust into the starting lineup Sunday.

Actually, Goff's thumb was broken and dislocated and he went under the knife today. He'll miss the Cards game and potentially the rest of the season. Wolford is going to be the guy. Even though Goff claims he still wants to play, it is obvious his thumb will be in a cast for awhile. Now we will get to see if this team really wants to win or they are just playing for the bucks. BTW, Kyler Murray's status is also questionable.

Rams QB Jared Goff undergoes surgery on broken thumb; John Wolford to start vs. Cardinals

The Rams need to beat the Cardinals to ensure they reach the postseason, something they'll have to do it with backup John Wolford.

Perhaps Snead will pick-up the phone and call Dwayne Haskins, QB that was released from the Redskins today.

Well, since we just signed Bortles back, I’m assuming McVay thinks that Perkins either isn’t ready or doesn’t know the playbook well enough yet?

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, the Bortles signing will help. If Wolford falters early, I suspect Bortles will be put in the game PDQ.

The Rams have re-signed Blake Bortles to backup Wolford.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Does anyone have confidence that McVay will build a game plan that will benefit Wolford to have success?

I don’t, since he can’t seem to do it with Goff.

No, i actually have 0 confidence. I'm just ready for the season to be over, it's no point in being embarrassed in the playoffs. Let the real teams battle it out, and the fake ass ones can stay home and figure out how to fix the issues that need to be addressed.

sounds about right, I wish someone would smack Goff with a twisted tea.

If the Rams win they are in. If they lose they are out. This is basically a playoff game for them.

If the Bears lose to the Packers tomorrow, we’re still in the playoffs regardless of the outcome of our game.

Great the city that I refuse to root for holds our destiny :/

Let’s do this! Sending JW some good vibes.

I like the Rams defense vs a hobbled Murray.

And McVay is a better coach than Kingsbury.
