ST. LOUIS RAMS (18)

• Chris Berman (ESPN, 21) - That locomotive that ran them over was Adrian Peterson.

• Clifton Brown (Sporting News, 23) - Steven Jackson is showing there is still plenty left in his tank.

• Collinsworth (NBC Sports, 18) - Just like last week, I'm still kind of a douche.

• Rich Gannon (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio, 23) - I have seen enough progress with this team to be encouraged for next season.

• Bob Glauber (Newsday, 19) - Second-quarter meltdown dooms the Rams, who trailed 30-7 at halftime and never got back in it against the Vikings.

• Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 17) - Sam Bradford has thrown for one TD or less in eight of the Rams' 14 games thus far. He also has thrown for fewer than 225 yards in nine games. St. Louis needs more from its quarterback.

• Clark Judge (CBSSports.com, 19) - [hil]Sam Bradford critics, listen up: Surround your quarterback with playmakers, and he'll be fine. So will your club.[/hil]

• Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune, 18) - They've made strides under Jeff Fisher, but they need more firepower.

• Pat Kirwan (SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com, 21) - What happened to the Rams defense when Adrian Peterson came to town? The same thing that happens to a lot of teams! The Rams are a year away, but Fisher has them pointed in the right direction.

• John Lynch (Fox Sports, 18) - The Rams couldn't contain Adrian Peterson but who has in 2012?

• Alex Marvez (Foxsports.com, 18) - The Rams knew Minnesota was going to ride Adrian Peterson and still couldn't stop the running back from gaining a season-high 212 yards in a 36-22 loss.

• Dan Pompei (Chicago Tribune, 17) - They have little hope of being a playoff team, but don't be surprised if they are a tough out in their last two games.

It sort of "pisses me off" when people who didn't watch the game forget about AP's YPC minus his 80 and 50 yard gallops.

Granted, we were a total fail on those runs. We deserve what we are getting.

But take away those runs and Peterson was Pedestrian.

The D did well on all but 2. Still not good enough... but let's not act like Peterson ran for 8yds per carry on every play.

Yeah Rick Gosselin from Dallas, listen the fuck up. We need playmakers around Bradford.

It's not like Bradford is surrounded with loads of talent and then fails in big games or anything and has the reputation of a choker or anything.... Now who could that be??

Granted, CRAIG FUCKING DAHL was a complete and total fuckstick failure on those runs. We deserve what we are getting.

But take away those runs and Peterson was Pedestrian.

Fixed.

Ouch man! Have to agree with the sentiment though. Help is on the way though, just a little too late.
