I have a brief window of time in my Thanksgiving weekend driving schedule — two days down to Florida, three days with family, two days back — to write a quick game preview for this Sunday’s tilt in Denver. Perhaps my sacrifice of nearly 3,000 tire miles to the gods of travel will earn a […]

Week 11: Falcons (7-2) at Rams (4-5) Nov 21, 2010 3:00 CST 34 17 NFL.com: Recap | Play by Play | Video The Atlanta Falcons played like older brothers to the young and growing Rams on Sunday — they showed the Rams how to play, then beat them at their game. For all the talk […]

The Rams face off against their superpowered alter-ego this week, the NFL team whose roster and philosophy most closely resemble what Billy Devaney and Steve Spagnuolo are trying to build in St Louis — the AFC South leading Atlanta Falcons. The question is, after years of beating themselves, can these new and improved Rams beat […]

Like most of the football world, I stand in awe of what Michael Vick did last night to the Washington Redskins, mercilessly torching their secondary and slashing through the line, putting up Tecmo Bowl numbers: 6 touchdowns on more than 400 yards combined rushing and passing, with no interceptions, no fumbles, and only 8 of […]

Week 10: Rams (4-4) at 49ers (2-6) Nov 14, 2010 3:00 CST 20   23 NFL.com: Recap | Play by Play | Video You could characterize this frustrating, mistake-filled loss so many different ways. Either a sign of progress, or a reminder of how far the Rams still have to go. A single heartbreaking loss or a staggering […]

I feel a flashback to freshman year in college coming on… Honestly, I had plans to work hard all week on this assignment, really I did. First matchup of the second half, first of four crucial divisional games that will decide the Rams’ playoff fates, it’s a big deal, you don’t have to tell me […]

Week 9: Rams Bye Week Twice already this season, a team in the NFC West has gone into the bye in second place, and come out of the bye in first. Seattle was the first team to pull off that trick, helped out by the Rams’ gut-wrenching last-minute loss in Tampa. But lady karma, they […]

We’re only at midseason awards time, so let’s not get too excited…. But both the venerable Peter King and NFL.com’s Jason La Canfora are weighing in with their midseason awards (King | La Canfora), and both see fit to snub the Rams’ Bradford in favor of a man drafted 17 places behind him: Pittsburgh’s new […]

Let’s be clear. The decision to pass on Randy Moss wasn’t about Billy Devaney and company sticking to a plan. If there was no room in the plan for established wideout talent, they would not have pursued Mark Clayton, Vincent Jackson, and Randy Moss in such depth. They wouldn’t have studied “every snap Randy Moss […]

It’s well known that 2015 is a big do-or-die year for the City of St Louis and the Rams. That’s the year that Stan Kroenke can flex the opt-out clause in the Rams’ stadium lease, if the stadium itself isn’t up to league standards. As Forbes reports, the Ed Jones Dome is a long way […]

This is the first chance I’ve had to write at any length about the Rams and Randy Moss since news broke of his bewildering release from the Vikings. However, the topic has nearly taken over my Twitter stream over the past 36 hours. As I sit here and try to sort through the blizzard of […]
