Scary as it may seem, this Rams offense has made progress. Okay, feel free to read on once you’re done face palming at the concept of this offense being an improvement. Writers Disclaimer: Be prepared for the tone of this article to swing from positive to negative, hopeful to panic and back again. The first […]

Bernie Miklasz posted a good read on Brian Quick in the St Louis Post-Dispatch, saying that the Rams were too quick (pun intended) to name him "the next Terrell Owens." To date, Quick has earned a total of six snaps on offense, per Pro Football Focus, and was inactive for Week 3's game against Chicago. […]

In this review, I am humbled. The Rams did everything I asked and lost. In fact, part of the reason why they lost is they could not get away from the game plan I asked for. The bears were prepared for the steady Eddy approach set forth below, and they wanted the ball in the […]

For two weeks, Paul Boudreau and Brian Schottenheimer had tag-teamed to work around a hobbled offensive line, giving Sam Bradford plenty of quick-passing opportunities, a few well-timed deep balls, and a creative deployment of the run game. However, they faced a team with a legitimate combination of up-front pressure and backfield coverage in the Chicago […]

The St Louis Rams' confident, physical play of the last two weeks gives me an unfamiliar feeling as we approach a road game against the Chicago Bears. I kind of expect the Rams to win. Naturally our team still has weaknesses, but I see worries on the other side as well and I can see […]

The Rams have a big test this Sunday. They are going into Soldier field to face a wounded animal, literally. The Bears generally, and Jay Cutler specifically, are emotionally wounded from their performance on national TV last Thursday. They are physically wounded as their best offensive player (Matt Forte) and best defensive player (Julius Peppers) […]

In today’s NFL, there’s no shortage of things to complain about if you’re a player. There’s the persistency of terrible officiating by replacement refs, concussions becoming as common as busted Matt Millen draft picks and murky discipline decisions by NFL czar Roger Goodell. However, shiny new prodigy Robert Griffin III found a few more grievances […]

The St Louis Rams and Chicago Bears don't really enjoy the same kind of rivalry that our baseball counterparts do. If anything, there is a studied indifference between these teams and fan bases – we have our rivalries with the 49ers and Seahawks to worry about, and they have their rivalries against the Packers, Lions, […]

The biggest story nobody is talking about from the St. Louis Rams' 31-28 victory over the Washington Redskins last Sunday was the running back situation. Yes Sam Bradford showed why he was drafted #1 overall, Danny Amendola set a career high in receiving yards, the Rams came back from..blah…blah…blah. And definitely not the Steven Jackson […]

The game has been over for hours. My throat is raw, my hands are vibrating, and my ears still ring with the ghosts of my own screams and cheers, and those of the 60,000+ crazed fans at the Edward Jones Dome. My twitter feed is filled with electronic pinches to remind ourselves that this is […]

After jousting with the potent combination of Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson, the Rams will be faced with an even more formidable duo – Robert Griffin III and the tremendous trail of media hype he is generating in his wake. However, this may be one of the few occasions where the hype is fully justified. […]

Nice job rookie(subtle pat given on the back side). However, one game- a season does not make. Redskins' rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III's week one numbers are undeniably amazing. 320 yards passing, two touchdowns and no interceptions as Washington beat New Orleans 40-32. Plus, he dizzied Saints' defenders like a piñata at a 3-year olds […]

Beware, adjective overload to follow shortly. The St. Louis Rams played one of their most inspired, passionate, hard-nosed games fans have seen in a while in Motown this past Sunday. The final two minutes not withstanding. However, the defense of the St. Louis Rams made a statement that should not be ignored . The defense […]

The Rams will be counting on heavy doses of Steven Jackson against a fearsome Lions' front four. The 2012 season kicks off with a rematch of two teams that met in a basement brawl three years ago. A young Matthew Stafford was outdueled by Marc Bulger, 176 passing yards to 168, and Steven Jackson had […]

There are 17 rookies on the St. Louis Rams’ opening day roster, seven more players age 24 or younger and 31 in all on the 53-man roster who were not with the franchise last season. It’s the youngest team in the NFL, with an average age under 26. A lot of kids for new coach […]
