The Rams make their first return to Monday Night Football since 2006 in their week 2 matchup with the New York Giants. Both teams are coming off of week 1 losses, and are dealing with a plethora of injuries. The Rams are looking to rebound off of a loss at the hands of the Philadelphia […]

Fans want some new tricks from the Giants’ old dog, Kevin Gilbride. For our second pre-game Q&A of the week, we tap on the shoulder of an old comrade from RamsHerd’s Fanball days, Dan Stack. Dan wrote for the inimitable GMenDen.com, and is now working at GiantsFootballBlog.com. Dan was kind enough to give us another […]

One particular match-up I imagine the Rams will try to exploit is Lance Kendricks working on the Giants linebackers and safeties. This is a similar game plan to the one they had against the Eagles. Perhaps if Kendricks does not drop two of the balls thrown his way, that plan would have been a little […]

Eli Manning had few problems with the Rams pass rush in 2008. This year may be different. Is is Monday Night yet? This week’s MNF matchup between the St Louis Rams and New York Giants on ESPN has that “big game” feeling already, and the weekend hasn’t even started yet. Maybe it’s because we have […]

This game is big for Sam Bradford. Yes, every game is big, and this game is important for the whole Rams team. After a week one loss that turned ugly late, they need to come back with a strong effort and find a way to put a W in the standings. They’ll need a couple […]

Week one left us with a lot of questions about the Rams Fantasy viability. After getting off to a great start fantasy wise it took all of two plays for Steven Jackson owners to put fist-to-wall. Little did fantasy owners know that this was only the first on many dominos to fall. Some due to […]

I was knocked down on gameday when my football fever turned into an actual fever, so my upper bowl ticket turned into a planking on the couch when the Rams kicked off. And so, I missed when the Ram Rules were broadcast into the stadium. Now I know we Rams fans have been flagrantly guilty […]

The Rams had a lot of things going against them in week 1. First off they were hosting the Super Bowl contending, Vince Young anointed, Dream Team of the NFL. Secondly they were fielding a team that by all accounts and analysis was not. As I wrote earlier this week, “Sunday matched-up a Super Bowl […]

Has Robert Quinn paid his dues in full yet? Robert Quinn’s benching in week 1 remains an intriguing subplot in the Rams’ 31-13 loss to Michael Vick and the Eagles, as mystified fans wonder why. I’ve had friends who follow other teams who wanted Quinn on draft day ask me why he went M.I.A, and […]

Brandon Gibson had one of the few positive plays of the day in the passing game, beating Nnamdi Asomugha. The folks at Pro Football Focus have taken a look at the Rams-Eagles matchup, and the grades are about what you’d expect — not a lot of positives anywhere on the board. However, there were some […]

Lance Kendricks, wide open vs the Eagles as expected. The outcome? Unexpected. From all of us who touted Lance Kendricks as a week 1 starter, we apologize. The matchup looked good. Lance’s chemistry with Sam was percolating. All he had to do was catch the damn ball. Kendricks was targeted 5 times, catching one. At […]

My first thought after seeing Amendola walk off the field, cradling his arm? “Oh god, we’re screwed.” Fortunately, the vultures circling around Danny Amendola appear to be backing off. At first, we heard “dislocated elbow” and I thought damn, that’s a 6-week injury at least. Then, John Clayton started reporting it as a “broken shoulder,” […]

After months of lawyering about with no football fans were desperate for anything. Along came preseason and temporarily quenched that thirst. As it lingered on so did the thirst. The longing for meaningful games grew and grew. As welcomed as preseason action was, the games after a quarter or so lacked any meaning. As such, […]

No part of the Rams passing game looked good on Sunday. Including the pass blocking. The self proclaimed “Dream Team” came to St. Louis on Sunday and did their best to live up to the hype. They outplayed the Rams in every fashion of the game and left with a 31-13 beatdown. After a great […]
