The problem is these reporters are trying to get clicks and headlines.

Every Rams fan knows how good we are. I would take our offense over the Saints and KC. There is no special teams in the NFL than the Rams which always gets overlooked. The Defense is mid level and has the best DLine in Football for me.

Overall that means we are the best team in the league because we have many ways we can beat the rest of the league.

I agree. But I see our defense coming together at just the right time.
  • D-line. Donald makes huge plays in key situations. I believe Brockers and Suh will play strong down the stretch.
  • OLB. Fowler and Ebukam are going to make a lethal 1-2 punch. There may be some contributions also from one of our young guys in spot duty.
  • ILB. Littleton is a playmaker. Barron has not been himself. I think he is just a bruised up warrior, suffering from Toby Wright Syndrome. An affliction that comes from delivering so much violence that the nerves, joints and sinews cry out in protest. I’d love to see one of the other guys step in. Thanks for all the great plays Mark. Let’s see what Ramik Wilson can do in a larger role.
  • Corner. With Aquib Talib back, Marcus Peters, Shields and Hill, and NRC in the slot, I think we are as prepared as anyone down the stretch.
  • Safety. Johnson is playing better of late. Hopefully Joyner can reach down and find some of what he showed last year.
I think we are past the gauntlet of the mid season. I predict at the end of this four game final stretch the Rams will climb back into being a top10- 15 defense.

I think he actually likes the Rams. I'd bet he's just dropping the Rams because he now broadcasts out of L.A. and is trying to keep the discussion about them relevant. Also sort of giving them an "underdog" vibe...as if that's possible. :rolleyes:

Whitlock and Merriman get it. Hall is halfway there. Wiley is just there for the sake of arguing.

Btw, you should put this in the AD for MVP thread so more people can see it.

Damn good video.

Finally a decent video from the media.

Define good lol.

I thought these guys were supposed to be professional "analysts" not barber shop jockeys. There was almost no discussion of personnel or schematic advantages, just the basic "if the Bears can stop Gurley and put guys over the top and stop Goff, then they'll win". If it was that simple, every team would be doing it.

Maybe it's just because they're pressed for time, but I'm not impressed. If you want to impress me, talk about how you think the receivers match up with the DBs or the OL with the DL. Maybe about how McVay's scheme matches up with Fangio's or Nagy's with Wade's. I've also heard minimal talk about how easy the Bear's schedule has been as compared to the Rams' this season.

Ummm what? Bro this is just about as professional as your going to get now a days! Sports media as a whole as taken a down turn for about 8-10 years now.

Also, the strategies they state are legit, it's what happened to the Saints. Problem is even the Saints haven't been able to do that to us. I don't think the Bears, Soldier Field, or the cold can slow us down but that is the best shot at doing it.

I agree for what your going to get they are not going to talk about specific match ups because we are still not mainstream amazingly. I'm sure that's going to change when we go 15-1 and stomp the first opponent in the division round.
