Game Thread: Week 8, Los Angeles Rams @ The New York Giants, 11/05/17, 10:00am PDT, Fox

[Retroram52]

Oh Crap! The Seahags scored a TD and now lead 14-10 with the failed 2-point conversion failure.

 

[Retroram52]

The Redskins have a minute and 34 to win this game with a TD. Don't know if they can pull this off.

 

[Retroram52]

Holy Cow, Cousins with two deep passes has the skins on the Seattle 2 yard line.

 

[Retroram52]

The first 30+-yarder was hauled in by former Rams Brian Quick.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the frikin refs have to get involved with the under-the-two-minute rule.

 

[Retroram52]

The second 30+-yarder was upheld and the Skins are on the Seattle one with plenty of time to go!

 

[Retroram52]

The Redskins score 17-14 with under a minute left.

 

[Retroram52]

Washington just gave up a deep ball and the Seahags are close enough for the tying FG.

 

[Retroram52]

SACK!! 15 seconds left.

 

[Retroram52]

Game Over and Washington wins it 17-14!!!! I love it. Rams own the NFC West as of now.

 

[Rambunctious]

Rams on top!!!!!!NFC WEST IS OURS BABY!!!!!!

 

[Vitamike]

First Place Baby!

 

[Vitamike]

I may end up losing my real money pickem because of this, but I wouldn't have it any other way!!!

Still have an outside chance, need Green Bay to cover +2.5 tomorrow and then win with the tiebreaker.

 

[SJ76]

Didn't watch but listened to most on the radio. Sounds like Goff is
Taking command of this offense and runnin shit.




McVay is going to get better at what he's doing and that's scary.

Just stay healthy baby

Finally get a Rams game on locally that was a solid win from start to finish. Man, those Giants are struggling.

Great to see Seattle stumble as well. Rams need that one game advantage with some tough games coming up.

It's hard to complain about anything coming off a game like this, and with how well the offense is clicking, but they really need to get Watkins more touches.

He only had the one target yesterday ( which of course was huge ), but that was it. And I realize Goff didn't pass a whole lot yesterday, but they brought him over for a reason, and Woods gets more looks than Watkins does every game.

That 2nd rounder may end up being wasted if he leaves after this season because he feels under utilized in the offense. I know winning cures alot of things, but not all things.

Just my worth

There actually were 2 targets, I remember the other where SW was open down the sideline and Goff just over threw him a bit. (Heck even the TD was caught by Watkins' fingertips...)

Sammy Watkins Stats | Pro-Football-Reference.com

A lot of the Watkins incomplete targets have been overthrows and some are questioning whether or not Sammy is quitting on routes. If so, that makes sense why he would get less targets.

Also, it seems like most targets in Mc Vay's system are over the middle routes. If Sammy's over the middle he is deep, so first he must be open, second he is probably not the first option since he likely is drawing the safety, and last the offensive line in those type of scenarios must hold up to give Goff the time to throw deep.
