1. Stafford showed the NFL just how good he can be if given the weapons.
2. Allen and the entire OL played lights out against a pretty damn good defensive front. These guys looked like they can play with anyone.
3. Jefferson showed he's the deep threat he could be. He's sneaky fast and with good hands.
4. What we saw was the early version of McVay's offense. It was clear he was holding back simply allowing his offense to work the kinks out. But what was clear is that the days of the simplistic outside zone run attack are gone. Inside gap blocking, would be better with a lead block to truly play power run.
5. I don't like Morris' version of drop, sit and react version of zone. The QB can throw to anyone inside of 5 yds uncontested. But he did tighten it up on 4th and short.
6. Rochell played well for his first game snaps. This kid is going to be special. His playing with Ramsey is going to really elevate his play quickly. If they lose D. Williams like they might, I'm more than happy with Rochell. He's going to be lights out in his 3rd year.
7. Stafford must think he's in heaven with so many weapons. He's used them all, but it's clear Kupp is going to be his #1 man.
8. As the season goes on this team is going to be an absolute monster on both sides.
9. Morris said, he didn't care about stats, and that is clear by the way he plays his defense. I may not personally like it but he showed tonight his defense can be good. He was more than happy to let the Bears dink, dunk and grind with their offense killing clock....time they couldn't afford because they were in a shootout with an offense that only allowed Hekker one punt. It worked because when he had to make the 4th down stops he tightened down the screws and it worked.
10. Give credit to where credit is due. I knew the Bears were good enough to beat you if you screwed up and they showed it. If anything it should drive any complacency the Rams might feel when they look at the game film.
11. The next 4 weeks will show just how good or not this team is. If they have a weakness it's going to show in these next 4 games. If they sweep them, this team will show they can absolutely beat anyone. I feel that the real competition this year will be within the NFCW. Sweep the division they make the playoffs and they will be SB bound.
