After a game that coulda, woulda, shoulda in LA against the Niners, the Rams go Monday Night Football on Monday in Cincinnati in a Snooperbowl rematch. Joe Barrow has a nagging ankle injury and will probably play. The Rams are pretty healthy except for Notebum who is out with a major shoulder issue. Don't know how this is going to play out. Have your Plan B's ready in case things go south on National T.V.

Good grief! This is our highest paid O-lineman!!

Joe Noteboom has deep shoulder bruise but is expected to play vs. Bengals

Sean McVay provided an update on Joe Noteboom’s shoulder injury, which isn’t expected to affect his availability for Week 3

Since the Niners continue to score 30 points a game and they destroyed the Geeants last night putting pressure on the Rams to keep pace, we shall see how the said Rams respond Monday night to keep pace. Otherwise, the beginning of the end may be in play.

The Rams gave the best team in the league a game. 9ers are tough this season. I think they refocus and take it to the Bungles.... Its up to Williams and Rivers, Akers went to the Vikings. Rams get basically nothing for him but whatever he is gone.

 

[UnrealTerm04]

Do we know if Burrow is starting? Game time decision?

 

[Retroram52]

Akers didn't even play in the Chargers-Vikings game. Held out because of his unfamiliarity with O'Connell's offense I suppose

I highly doubt Burrow plays, a calf injury on the leg that he pushes off with is nothing to play with. I mean you are tinkering with aggravating it even worse. KD had a similar calf strain that resulted in him rupturing the Achilles, his best best is to sit and rest for a couple of games. That division is still winnable in the long run.

Looks like he will be starting tonight.

Atwell was close but didn’t get in

 

[Jermaine133]

Stafford is fucking up already... 1st and goal... held the ball for about 5 secs instead of heaving it thru.. and now some shitty passes right after.

 

[Jermaine133]

if the rams want to win, he needs to wake the hell up in the redzone and see the pressure..... that won't on the OL..

 

[Retroram52]

All B. Young needs is experience. He is going to be a damn good EDGE for us.

 

[Retroram52]

Our D looks like it has come to play tonight!

 

[Retroram52]

Mighty might is also doing punt return duty. Dude is hyped-up!!

 

[Jermaine133]

Stafford playing like shit already... Detroit Matt in the building

 

[Retroram52]

How can you miss a 1-yard pass?

 

[Retroram52]

Man, we have one helluva a punter!!

 

[Retroram52]

Our D is really playing well, but the offense and Stafford seemed to be still in LA!
