Against TB, our offense put up 30, and it was our def that allowed them to come back. Additionally, i would rather have our def close out the last drive than hope that our offense get the game-winning score.
Yeah, our D did allow TB to come back, they also won us the game. The offense also had opportunities to put the game out of reach. In back to back games our offense has had the ball with a few minutes to go and we've gone 3 and out. Relying on our D to seal the victory. I'll take a win any day, but it'd be nice for them to close out the game. I'm not talking about a game winning drive. I'm talking about a 4-5 drive to run out the clock, or a two score lead. We could easily be 0-4 had our D not closed out the game. We cannot expect the D to do that every time.

Articles and titles like this one only mean that people are taking notice of the Rams' record and haven't watched the games and speak from ignorance.

If the Browns were 3-1 with unimpressive offensive numbers and all i watched was ESPN highlights i'd probably be hatin on them too. I wouldn't however, be writing blogs and articles about them...claiming i know something that everyone else doesn't.

I feel like i know this Rams team very well. The Rams haven't really accomplished anything yet but it's a great start. We're in the drivers seat at the one quarter mark of the season, are 2-1 on the road and have won some close games.

Excuse are being made by some of the fans, local media of the teams the Rams have beaten. "We made too many mistakes...If we'd scored a TD instead of a FG....if we hadn't turned the ball over....how'd we lose to Case Keenum?(my favorite).

I'm enjoying the success while it lasts, and if there's one thing i can point to that's different about this team vs the last two or three seasons it's that there's no panic or lack of confidence when the pressure is on. I'd still like to see more discipline but there seems to be more focus this season.

Let's face it - our team is learning how to win games. I expect our offense to click more as we continue to win and gain momentum. We already see it with the secondary, our weakest defensive unit. Tru and McDonald have some swagger now, confidence that i expect them to carry to the Bills. I think Quicks confidence is growing and it shouldnt take too much more for our WRs to feel the same way.

I like the analogy that someone else used of the 2012 49ers. Let's keep squeaking by until we are ready to explode!

As much as I would love for the Rams to finally get some respect, I also believe that we really benefit from that underdog image. The blowout in SF might have been a blessing in disguise as it somehow convinces everyone we suck despite a 3-1 record, and I bet it gets the players extra motivation to fight hard. I hope every experts picks the Bills to win at the Coliseum, that Donald and Quinn get angry about it and that Keenum gets us another weird but winning drive for a field goal and a 1 pt victory 13-12.

I just read the new power rankings at msn.com. They have the Rams at #10. After the 49er loss they had the Rams at 29. Nice move up after 3 wins.

I've been a fan too long to get excited about this early streak. And I definitely think #10 is pushing it.
