Rams vs Saints: Big Plays & Big Decisions

Whether it was the Rally Squirrel walking a few blocks north on Broadway, a New Orleans Saints team perhaps a bit too convinced of their upcoming dominance or a St. Louis Rams team deciding that it had finally had enough. Whatever the cause a Rams team anticipated by so many showed up at the Ed […]

Rams finally deliver on expectations

Elation. Euphoria. Excitement.  Words used to describe NFL powerhouses like the Packers but words that were rarely uttered anywhere near St. Louis until today. The lowly Rams hosted the supercharged Saints and took every punch New Orleans threw, emerging from the dust with a 31-21 victory. The Rams seemed to finally put it all together, […]

DAY OF THE DEAD! Rams Upset the Saints, 31-21

No one gave the 0-6 St Louis Rams a chance of covering a two-touchdown spread, let alone winning the game against the New Orleans Saints. Especially with Sam Bradford sitting out for the second week in a row. Today’s game, scheduled to start four hours before the St Louis Cardinals’ victory parade downtown, seemed like […]

Rams vs Saints: Should We Even Watch?

Lost in the shuffle of St. Louis baseball Cardinals pursuing their eleventh World Series title in 2011 is the fact that our beleaguered St. Louis Rams (0-6) have a game to play against the New Orleans Saints (5-2). The Saints are coming off of a 62-7 demolishing of the Indianapolis Colts. In that game, the […]

2011 World Series: Rams Players Watch as the Baseball Cardinals Refuse to Die

Most Rams player Twitter pages have been cold and lonely places as the losing streak continues, with status updates bare and hate-mentions from immature fans piling up at their doorsteps. The disappointment of this season has created a team full of shut-ins. Everyone’s keeping their heads down, just hoping to get through. Like the rest […]

Missing: Defensive Leaders

I don’t live in St. Louis but I have to assume by now someone has filed a missing persons report for what were supposed to be the young leaders on this Rams defense.  Fans shouldn’t be surprised to see names and pictures of guys like Chris Long and James Laurinaitis plastered on milk cartons, players […]

Where Do Rams Go From Here

Sitting at 0-6 and staring 0-7 right in the face it can be difficult to look ahead. But the Rams have to do just that. My advice would be to actually look past the Saints, this week’s opponent, and start thinking about week nine in Arizona. I understand rule 1 in sports is to not […]

The Rams lose another draft pick, and their commitment to youth.

Jabara Williams was released by the Rams this morning. Billy Devaney came to the Rams in 2008, and took charge of the team in January 2009. He was empowered by Chip and Lucia Rosenbloom to clean house, and he did so, top to bottom. But he preached patience at the time, pledging to rebuild the […]

Questions for Spagnuolo: Are these Rams playing as hard as they can?

Steve Spagnuolo rushed through his Monday afternoon press conference, leaving the podium after three questions and leaving several topics unasked, hanging in the air. He is sticking to the “missed tackle” message from his post-game conference, placing the blame squarely on his players on defense. He even offered a little nugget for the stat crowd, […]

Rams Debut: Brandon Lloyd

In his Ram debut Brandon Lloyd had 6 receptions for 74 yards with a long of 34. Lloyd showed to be a nice upgrade over free-agent bust Mike Sims-Walker. Some bright spots for Lloyd were his ability getting downfield and gaining separation from coverage. Unfortunately Feely struggled getting him the ball in those opportunities. But […]

Rams vs. Cowboys: Big Plays & Big Decisions

Going into Sunday for their game against Dallas the Rams knew they would have an uphill battle ahead of them. Dallas was coming off of tough last minute loss to New England and still in the hunt for the NFC East title. The Rams were coming off of a blow-out defeat at the hands of […]

Recap: Dallas Cowboys break the St Louis Rams, 34-7

A familiar sight on Sunday: Rams defenders trying in vain to catch DeMarco Murray. DeMarco Murray will get the well-deserved accolades for his record-setting rushing day against the St Louis Rams. But his entry into the Dallas Cowboys’ record book, supplanting Emmitt Smith and Tony Dorsett, should come with an asterix attached: Coach Steve Spagnuolo […]

From Bad to Worse: Jason Smith suffers head/neck injury

The Rams’ season of disaster just got significantly worse. Just after Cadillac Williams dropped the ball along the sideline on a decent run, Jason Smith got significantly injured while trying to recover the ball. As the screenshot (captured by @JBeres7) shows, Smith’s head got driven into his body by the knee of Dallas safety Abram […]

Cowboys vs Rams: Three Things to Watch For

This week the St. Louis Rams (0-5) look to right the sinking ship as they follow the baseball Cardinals down south to take on the Dallas Cowboys (2-3). The Cowboys are coming off of a 20-16 loss to the New England Patriots in week 6. A reinvigorated Dallas defense, under the control of Rob Ryan, […]

Dallas Cowboys vs St Louis Rams: Where’s the pressure?

The last time these teams met, the Rams collected 3 sacks of the Cowboys’ QB. But that was Brad Johnson, not Tony Romo. I’d like to believe the Rams are not as bad as their record, that there are nuggets of good play that we can find and build on, buried underneath the mountain of […]
