A pickle

[Ramhusker]

What a PICKLE this Rams team has gotten itself into so early in the season. They really needed to be 3-0 going into the bye to make a run at the playoffs with the tough middle part of the schedule they have awaiting them. Nothing to do now but to DILL with it!

What's the difference in losing to bad teams and beating good ones? It's all the same in the record column. This is a backwards year, we'll gonna go on a tear.

That's only if you buy into that paradigm and I don't. Looking at a schedule at the start of the year using it to come to any conclusions is fun the day it comes out but as most teams are not the same from year to year, not even counting key injuries, it's a huge stretch to come to any meaningful conclusions. I never bought into the "we have to do well in the first 4 games" crap. I was and am in the we have to do well in the 8 game stretch. Nothing has changed. I like sweet pickles better.

14-2.

Well since the run game is supposed to be our "bread and butter" ,tell the rest of those teams to hold onto their "gherkins" or we're gonna knock them in their watch pocket.

I agree with above. And I'll add that we've snuck up and smacked some of our divisional foes in the mouth before with far less talented rosters. This is still a good team, regardless of record--they just need to play to their potential. No win or loss can be assigned until after the game is played, so let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Getting off to a good start would have been great,but I believe that there is enough talent on this team to beat any team anytime anywhere.Let's just hope that they all start playing to their potential especially the defensive unit.....GO RAMS

I completely agree,looking at the good teams we beat last year we saw some of what is possible if they get to mistake free football,I'l match our athleticism with anyone including Philly ,the problem with the athletecism thing is sometimes it takes a little longer to get disciplined play from them ,example RGIII relies too much upon his athleticism and it's just not as effective for him at this level.
Barring injury IMO we smite some of these "better teams " .

So we've seen Dill, Bread N Butter, and Gherkin... that about covers em all I think ?

I did try fried dill pickle chips once or twice.

I don't see this team laying down or lacking Fight after just 3 games... Instead, I've seen a lot of anger and frustration. The rest of our opponents this year better be prepared for a very mad Ram team... or they're gonna get their pickles knocked in the dirt.

No, laying down would not be Kosher with me,

Get ready to relish in an 8 game winning streak.

 

[iamme33]

it will be interesting to see if fisher calling out the refs gets us some holding calls.if we start getting holding calls it might unleash our d line. if so i could see us putting togeather some wins

 

[Rmfnlt]

Don't be jerking your Gherkin.

 

[DaveFan'51]

Even ESPN will be Dill-erious over the Rams after we beat Philly, and then the 49ers on "Monday Night Football!!

 

[Rmfnlt]

Maybe DIL-fer likes the Rams to win.

The NFL schedule is never what it seems. We're going to win some games that many thought we'd lose. Let's start with next Sunday.

 

[dbrooks25]

Like everyone else has stated, you're going to lose games you're not supposed to and win games you're not supposed to, so I'm not worried at all about the upcoming schedule. I don't understand why people say we had to have a certain record before the bye week anyway. Someone even stated that they think we may not win any of the next eight games. If we lose the next eight games, then going 3-0 won't mean shit cause that means we would just be 3-8. Point is, the schedule is NEVER what it seems to be in the beginning. If these next 8 games are brutal, it probably won't matter what the record was in the first 3 games. This is a team that gets a lot better as the season goes on, btw.

Now I'm craving pickles.

Thanks, Ramhusker.

 

[RhodyRams]

I relish the thought of the rest of the NFC playing ketchup to the Rams, once they start putting some mustard into the run game




ok..I'll stop now

 

[CodeMonkey]

Can I make mine pickled okra? And I bet @Dagonet has a little somethin somethin to say about pecks of pickled peppers.

 

[Mojo Ram]

I predicted a 2-2 start en route to a 9-7 record post-Bradford. Gotta beat Philly.

Pickles are the key ingredient in a Chicago style hot dog IMO. Some might say the peppers.
