Correct. La Canfora can barely contain his enthusiasm for what the Rams are doing right now. What a pleasure to hear.

It's all about the Rams, people's, not just a blurb.

I Liked when La Canfora said "..I can't wait to see what the Rams do, on a short week, against a 'weak offense'!" ME TOO!! IT SHOULD BE A BLOOD BATH! :snicker::snicker::mustache::banana::rockon::cheers:

Rams are going to destroy the Cardinals on Thursday Night Football.

It's easy to be brash and bold after 2 shutouts... But it feels like we are poised to win solidly. A good matchup for us. So, I'm feeling it too.

Maybe then more of the media will take notice?

But, we're starting to get on their radar, regardless.

4-6 weeks ago, folks were talking about having the Rams tank the rest of the way to get the better position on the draft pick. I'll tell you what, these last 6 games with the Rams really finding themselves will do more for the 2015 Rams then any rookies could possibly do. It's the difference between 7 rookie players who are marginally better versus 53 veteran players all playing day v night better.

(that said, I still haven't given up on 2014 yet. Rams win out, Dallas loses out, Lions lose out, hello wildcard!)

La Confora knows the defense was pretty well why we were losing when we were and why we are winning now ,it's great to have Long back ,one guy he failed to mention... Barron ,I think he's contributed enough we can now say it was a good trade and MAYBE had a hand in the turnaround

I think the trade for Barron showed the team that they weren't giving up on this season even though they did say it was a move for the future, but I think they saw the team still bringing guys in and the atmosphere got a little more competitive after that, especially in the secondary. Long coming back was huge too, not even necessarily for his on the field contributions but it was big to get our vocal leader and essentially the backbone of our team back.

Since Dallas and the Eagles already have 9 wins and we have lost to both of them that leaves only one wild card spot available right? As I see it we need the Lions and Seahawks to lose out. I think

It's all in this thread...

...including a link to a cool tool to help you test how various win/loss combinations affect the playoff teams. @MTRamsFan pretty much nailed it at the end of page 1.

All this talk about the Rams is making my life just a little better. Love that people are talking them in a positive light.

I agree with your points, especially Barron, but it's hard on a D when the opponent gets so many extra series with short fields. I think the D just wasn't up to speed in GW's defense at the start of the season and, with the added pressure of turnovers, couldn't hold. The Rams were also ahead in so many games when the O just disappeared.

I think a whole game of offense has added a lot to the Rams.

Lol fora bit aabout a mmatch up between 2 teams he really had nothing to say bout them cCardinals

 

[TexasRam]

Barrron has contributed for sure and Long helped out the last game.

But the Turnaround was very much unrelated to those two.

The Defensive turnaround happened when Trumaine got back and when GW changed the defensive approach. Specifically the role of JL and Ogletree consistently blitzing the A gap.
