Well here we go again. The Rams will travel to Philadelphia to take on the Iggles. Yep, we owe these guys a big beat-down like they did to the Rams at SoFi a couple of weeks ago. To have any chance of winning this game, the Rams are going to have to duplicate the game performance they did against the Vikings sans the knucklehead, stupid, penalties that continued THROUGHOUT the game.

The Rams are going to have to start hard and fast and they need to again score points in every Quarter to win this game. The fact has been established this year for the Rams: That being, when the Rams score points (preferrably TDs) in all Quarters (especially in the First Quarter), their chances of winning the football game increase exponentially. If they take a Quarter off, like the Rams tried to do last evening in the Third Quarter on Offense and subsequently in the Fourth Quarter (the game had already been won), they WILL lose against the Iggles.

THE Defense is going to have smother and I mean beat the crap out of Barkley and Hurt. If they let either or both get going, the game will be over. If we get behind, the game will be over. If Stafford starts throwing INTs, the game will be over. If either McShitferBrains or ShulaShitferBrains goes soft or conservative, the Rams will lose the game. If they have a rash of penalties, the game will be over. It is just that simple.

So, if the Rams want to advance to the NFC Championship Game, they will have to play their very, very best and nobody will be permitted to have mental lapses or take plays or Quarters off or they will undoubtly lose this one!!

Dude just can't seem to stay healthy since his multiple damaged knee injury from last year's playoff game against the Lions.

Tyler Higbee was limited to only 12 snaps in the Los Angeles Rams’ win over the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night before suffering a chest injury that knocked him out of the game. The injury required Higbee to be hospitalized and on Tuesday morning, Sean McVay pr

Did you guys use Colby Parkinson much this year? He left Seattle and signed a pretty sizeable contract with you guys (enough to offset the 6th round comp pick we lost for acquiring Dodson). Looks like your tight ends didn't do much in general although I know Higbee was injured basically the whole season.

At one point, Parkinson was demoted and benched being the starter after a mid-season loss but then he came back like two weeks later and played on and off. He blocks well and I guess he is O.K. but McVay has been using Long, Allen, and Higbee more than Parkinson.

Pulmonary contusions take about a week to heal so Higbee should be ready to go next week. The hospital let him go home with the team so it doesn't sound like a bad injury. If it were they would have kept him over night. Higbee plays with a reckless abandon and he pays for it with injuries.

Colby Parkinson Has made some clutch catches for us. He is no Higbee but he is tough and Stafford trusts him.
