I figured that something like this would happen. If we lose against the Ravens, might as well shut him down the rest of the season, prevent him from getting hurt any more.

With all the injuries and a new QB, it's going to be a tough game to win. It's a must win game.

Isn't this a new injury? He had the knee injury before.

Not good at all.
Hopefully Hayes, Long and Westbrook can bring some attitude.

I don't see this as a must win. We lost our two must win games the past two weeks. Our chances of playoffs now are extremely slim. Some people stay optimistic waiting until they're mathematically eliminated. Myself, I've seen this all to often. December will be the month we look to play spoiler. I guess if we can eliminate the seahags it will make the season more enjoyable.

Eugene Sims has been RDE Rob Quinn back since Fisher arrived. Sims is a UFA in a few months so this is his chance to find a starting post either in a 34 or 43 defense. Sims best post may be the DE position in a 34 defense that most NFL teams utilize.

Not sure how much LDE Chris Long will play but I would think he would be worked back in slow & easy in passing situations. So William Hayes will once again like most of this 2015 season do the heavy lifting @ LDE. Leaving both Ethan Westbrook & Matt Longacre who was not active last week a ton of opportunities @ DE rotation. Westbrooks gets action at DT also.

Top DT Nick Fairly came back to life after two sub games against the Vikings & 9ers. IMO last weeks game was his best & I am hoping that his fire continues to grow from this point on. The injuries to our top two DE's have really hurt us the last two weeks. The fact that Hayes was also dealing with a thigh injury too. back up NT Doug Worthington was re-added back to the PS after his release from the master roster this week

Come on man what the frig. This team is cursed. There's no other way around it. How can any team possibly win with so many injuries? It's just not fair.

I know how this game is going to go. No Quinn, ineffective Gurley and Austin, Chris Givens scores touchdown on us.

And then I go outside and bash my cars windshield with a shovel while I'm knee deep in fucking snow.

Quinn being out sucks, but I don't see this being something that is a game changer. Bmores oline is bad, prob worse than ours, and we are stacked on Dline. At most we lose half a step, IMO. To put it in perspective, having Havenstein out is worse than Quinn being out.

Our D is clearly experiencing it's fair share of attrition, huh?

Gaines
Ogletree
Long since the Packer game
Quinn has been 50% for 4+ games
TJ has been banged up pretty good and missed 1 game as well

Our O has unfortunately suffered in 1 position group.

Saffold
Brown
Williams
Havenstein

NFL football is a violent sport, indeed.

Can the Rams survive the above injuries when coupled with a sputtering QB situation?

No pressure, Case. Lol.

The Mighty One has been exposed to too much kryptonite this season.

Without Quinn in the line-up, teams can focus on shutting down Donald and we become average on the D-Line. Part of the reason we have struggled on defense the last two games. No Quinn = No Pass Rush.

I hope they put Westbrooks at RDE instead of Sims. Sims gives us no pass rush.(or Long at RDE with Hayes/Westbrooks at LDE)
