Where's the classic, "At times like these, there's only one thing you can say: whooooooo!" from McVay?

I get the vibe that this team(players/coaches/staff) enjoys each other

Nothing from what I saw in video(still loved it, despite becoming somewhat immune to its feel good voo doo) it's just you don't start 6-0 if hate lingers any where within the locker room\practice facilities/playing field

While Gurley ran like a champion, I think the altitude affected him a bit. Lets us all know what an instinctual runner he is.

Listen to his post game interview and he seems not just muted, but a little out of it which isn't uncommon for folks (and a real wake up call that the Rams cannot just fly into Mexico City which is 2 THOUSAND feet higher than Denver)

There are many examples including a presidential debate where people at altitude just aren't themselves.

If nothing else, I really hope the Rams pay attention to this and get to Mexico City as early as they can to acclimate.

I agree and will add this..........I think they realize that they are part of a special group with tremendous talent and opportunity. I think they all have the feeling of not wanting to let the team down and if they do they don't take it lightly.

This is the most "team" team I have seen the Rams field other than the 99-01 teams.

You got that right, brother, that's for sure.

You know when you're part of something that's unique or special and I think McVay's mindfulness has the players, especially the vets who were on other teams or at least played under Fisher really recognize how special THIS team is.

Who knows about next year, but this team is truly taking it one game at a time. And no one is pulling any punches...while McVay is taking responsibility, the players are owning things, too.

it's almost...almost obnoxious where McVay is taking responsibility for play calls where players are saying it's them and their execution.

I love it.

This team is beyond rare and I'm trying to savor every moment of this year.
