Yup, back in 2015.
Series tied 46-46 and 2 ties.
Colorado State.
Maybe.
This isnât your 2 year older brothers Rams team.
Is this the St Louis team that moved to Phoenix or the team that used to be in Oakland and is now in Las Vegas?
No.
They were The Senators.
Seattle Pilots.
Decent trucks...
They are getting tired right now from chasing ewes.
I seriously wouldn't be surprised if they light the Rams up. I think McVince and Rodgers are seeing the only guy who can consistently make something happen on developing plays right now is Adams and he's not a burner. Makes complete sense rookie WR would have some struggles. So going to a more precision game, working in the rookies more and who knows with the run game I think they can crack it open and all of sudden this offense looks solid again. Always seems to be games like this where they wake the **** up.
Caveat. Only if the right side of the oline doesn't become a complete and total liability, which is entirely possible.
I'm most worried about Donald and Suh against our interior. Our interior has been rough lately. Suh will dive at Rodgers knee in a heartbeat also.
That would take away from Jones time would be my guess.
It might be time to consider a new center. My eyes are telling me 63 is struggling.
I saw at least two times in Monday's game where Linsley pulled and ended up blocking no one, and there were people to be blocked. Just ended up standing there looking around like oops where'd the play go? Put your hat on someone... anyone!
Probably won't happen, and it probably shouldn't for continuity's sake, but something is wrong there. I see Patrick is the back up. Probably going to need him elsewhere on the line. I did like what Dillon Day did in preseason, but what do I know.

I think letting Tretter walk was beyond stupid on TT's part. Too much versatility on the interior to let him walk. That cat got up field on blocks too.
Linsley looked great with Lang and Sitton flanking him.
Agree with all that. Doesn't change the fact that we need to move on from 12.
Important thing for our defense is going to be containing the edges. LA has been deadly, maybe the best in the NFL, on off-tackle runs. Our strength is in the interior DL and perhaps our biggest weakness is on the edges, so we can't have Clay and Gilbert hard charging into the backfield and breaking contain, Gurley is waaaaay too good for that to be sustainable.
On offense we need to run to the left behind Lewis and Bakh, that has been our strength. Get the ball out quick in the passing game. We can move the ball on their D no doubt, it's not a perfect defense. Just play to our strength and not to theirs and we will get a W. Game might be 56 to 52, but we can win.
Rams have had a lot of injuries in their secondary.
I'm hoping their spent from their divisional game with the Niners.
I will be there representing X4 with my wife, who may wear her Rams shirt rather than her Rodgers jersey. Her dad was a long suffering Rams fan.
I'll be there also, somewhere up in the cheap seats, wearing Green, Gold or a combination of the 2.
Stating the obvious here, but the Packers need to stop (slow down, maybe?) Gurley. At one point in their game this past week, I heard the announcers say Gurley had 200 some yards, and the team had 268 in total (at that time in the game). That's a LOT of production from 1 player.
That's because McVay sees a weakness & tells the other team - "I'm going to keep doing this until you stop it"....and Denver never did.
What a novel concept....Attacking the other teams weakness until they stop it - sounds like something Billy B might do.
Rodgers is probably going to have to throw for 400+ again if the Packers are going to win - I'm assuming since he's the first to go back-to-back 400+ - he would also be the first to do a 400+ three-peat?
Geronimo might be back - which could help.
As per usual....O-Line & D-Line need to hold up. Can they?
McVay is a huge proponent of winning 1st down. He hates 2nd and 10 or worse. Everything he does sets his offense up for exploiting 2nd down. He hates giving away 1st downs.

That is way too radical for us.
The Packers should be thrilled if by some miracle they split the next 2.
Not holding my breath, but McStubborn does have 2 full weeks to prepare for the Rams.

And too boring. Why run a four stroke when a two stroke is noisier, less fuel efficient, smokes, and generally way more unreliable?
Anybody can convert 2nd and 4. 2nd and 12? That's entertainment!
The 2 stroke will strip your hair off.
Bingo!

2 weeks of half time adjustments....color me I'll believe it when I see it.
They will probably hang 40 on us.
Fine, as long as the Packers put up 42.
It's the answer to everything.
I don't have a ticket yet, waiting for a basement bargain price...
Worked for Sun Ticket, I got Max for "free"
Ya, Pikes Peak and other X4ers who might be attending the Rams game, should we try to get together, get a brew, before the game?
I'll be there!
We are parking in Santa Monica and taking the Metro train in to avoid the typical horrific traffic.
That's a great tip. Thanks Ya!
