The NFL hates the Rams. Look at the 9ers and Seattle's schedule vs. ours. I'm not trying to make excuses but two years in a row we've had the hardest schedule in the league. Seattle has played Carolina (w) 9er's at home (w they almost never lose at home) and the Jags, lol, automatic (W). Can we have the Jags next week? Please???!!! Dallas will come out guns a blazin at home. Oh then we have the 9ers. RIP rams.

Jacobarch. I think the Rams learned something about themselves yesterday and that is they can come back from a deficits on the road which is something we have not witnessed in a long time. So, the game in Dallas is going to be tough but I think the Rams may eek out a win.

BTW, I think you might want to change your avatar to something sports teams related. Scantily clad women avi's are no longer acceptable since the latest Google audit. See the thread on the new Avatar policy here on Ramspages. I'll give you a couple of days to get a new one preferrably Rams related or, like many, you can go avatar-less. Thanks in advance.

Id say Seattle has a 95% chance of beating Jacksonville. Niners have a 65% of beating Indy at home. Arizona probably has a 35% chance of beating New Orleans on the road.

Seattle 3-0
San Fran 2-1
Rams ????
Arizona 1-2

Road wins are a premium in this league right now. Teams that win on the road will have a huge advantage in getting to the playoffs

The rams safety play is the only thing separating them from competing for this division

 

[Retroram52]

I agree CC if you specifically include McCleod. McDonald Jr. is the real deal and he'll flat out smack the krap out of you. Reminds me of Ronnie Lott.

Eh!

A power runner would go a long way too!

If we can extend drives, it keeps the defense of the field!

I do agree and I appreciate the rams trying out cunningham and stacy in game 1 and 2 but I think they lack the power that can carry a couple defenders on their backs to get a first down. One thing that bothers me is there were a couple of RB FA's this off season that we easily could of grabbed. L Blount comes to mind. Even A Bradshaw would of been a solid #2

 

[Clayton]

Cunningham could have the power but I only remember 1 carry against the Falcons and he ran high which is taboo #2 behind only being careless with the football (see: Pead)

Stacy looks too slow.

I still like Richardson as the complimentary back but I don't think he can take a full work load

 

[Retroram52]

Maybe Pead will wake-up??!!

unless he can run through walls of lineman

At least the Rams are being competitive. They were able to rally back in the ATL game. Still lost but the point remains the Rams can throw the ball when needed... Why don't we just do that to begin with!!!

The 49ers are a big favourite. The Colts will struggle to keep the game close.

That's called the Detroit Lions, thats a risky path to go down.
