Agreed. Nothing winds me up more in our division than this.
Pete Carroll chomping his gum pisses me off to no limits. It might be the hate I have for him dating back to his USC days, but that gets me. I’m always anxious for divisional games because I hate all of them.

does anyone really doubt that no matter who the Rams QB is, that McVay is simply going to attempt the Rams version of what the 49ers did Saturday?

1. heavy run game
2. variety of misdirection runs -- reverses, jet sweeps, etc
3. simple play action throws off 1 and 2.

4. Physical defense.

Where do rams rank in terms of t.o.p? 49ers ranked #2.

I don't think it matters who plays QB. I think this is going to be another frustrating and humiliating loss.

lol... tell us how you really feel!

the darksider inside of me totally agrees with you, but I'm shutting that guy out until at least the first quarter Sunday!

until then, I say we are winning on Sunday... someway... somehow... while having no clue in any way shape or form how that can happen.

Rams QB hobbled or out. Henderson out. Yet I still have no confidence in a win.

Can we be clear up front. If we lose to a team starting a UDFA QB without its starting RB who''s fault is it?

Can we agree up front it's Kliff? If he can't get the team up for a game like this and roll out a successful game plan then it's on the HC right?

Would be good to get that covered before the apologists chime in.

I just want Kyler to step up in the pocket, go through his progressions, find an open receiver, and hit him. Don't focus on one receiver the whole time. Don't leave the pocket too early.
If not.....then put in the Canadian Grey Cup Champion.

It's not his job to motivate millionaire, professional athletes to play well in a loser-goes-home game. If the team comes out flat, I think that's on the players, although it does beg the question, Why? If the game plan sucks, then yes, that's clearly on him. I just don't think we can prematurely pin the loss on KK. Sometimes it's the guys who actually play the game, no?

Wasn't Bortels on the Rams roster last year? Besides the Jags, which he wasn't good, does he have any effective playing time?
