Game Thread: Week 2, New Orleans Saints @ Los Angeles Rams, Sunday, 9/15/19, 1:30pm, PDT

This is the anticipated rematch with the Saints whose fans still think we got away with a game that was theirs. I am sure Nikel Robey-Coleman is going to be chompin' at the bit to clear his name but we shall see. Should be a fun game and we had better clean-up all of the krap we did against the Panthers or we may be looking at our first loss.

Watching the Saints right now, go Texans!

Just can't bring myself to root for a team that has Kenny Stills on it.

 

[Rambunctious]

The rams receivers will be able to get open against the Saints

 

[Retroram52]

Both teams are coming-off wins so this game is shaping-up be a classic smashmouth football game.

Week 2 NFL picks, predictions


New Orleans Saints at Los Angeles Rams


(Rams -2 1/2, -130)

Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET, Fox

This should be considered the game of the week for many reasons, most notably the fact that both the Saints and the Rams are among the favorites to reach the Super Bowl out of the NFC. New Orleans eventually figured things out against Houston, but its variousstruggles offensively against the Texans are concerning ahead of a game against thesuperior Rams defense. The Saints also have a couple weak spots in their secondary, and the Rams at this point in the season are at full strength with a myriad of options for Jared Goff.

Prediction: Rams 27, Saints 24

 

[Rambunctious]

Lets do this Rams, Play defense! and ST don't screw up and we can win this going away.

 

[UVA_Guy81]

Nice hit while getting the pick!

 

[Rambunctious]

Picked off! YES

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

What a hit by Weddle!!!

 

[UVA_Guy81]

Great catch by Cooks!

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

What a throw by Goff!!!

 

[Rambunctious]

What a throw and what a catch

 

[UVA_Guy81]

I’d try a short route to Higbee right here.

 

[Retroram52]

That throw and catch was a thing of beauty. The Rams offense still looks a little sleepy but that deep ball woke everyone up.

 

[Retroram52]

Bring in the short yardage machine, Malcolm Brown for the score.
