So much for the preseason opinions of some pundits, huh?

To think that some declared at one point in the preseason that the Rams would not be favored in a single game this year.

Other "experts" put the over/under on wins at 5 1/2 games. The public forced Vegas to establish that line, in fact.

What can I say?

I feel so VINDICATED! Lol.

Yeah, it was the Colts without Luck, but still...

A few things to clean up, but this team looks dangerous, don't it?

Do you want another happy thought? You know, like for dessert?

I suspect that McVay "held back" on much of his O playbook today. Simply because he knew that he wouldn't need all of it.

When we see the better teams, I predict more exotic usage of Gurley, Watkins, Kupp, Woods, Everett, Higbee, Reynolds, and maybe Tavon.

McVay surely has more weapons up his sleeve for when he needs them. We did NOT see the whole playbook, fellas.

Maaaaaybe the Redskins will see it. For sure the Cowboys. Lol.

And us without Donald ...
Don't know what Luck might have done against us, but i'd be willing to bet that Donald would have added another 4 more sacks to his column. jmo.

Still way to early, but it felt good to see a total team effort. I'm sure some of the pundits will still try to rain on their parade.

Does Luck give them 30+ points on our defense? Because our offense put up more than 30.

I think we win this game even if Luck was playing, just like last time.

Where is ESPN's resident savant, Mike Sando? Shouldn't he be reiterating the '3 win' prediction he made a few days ago? Come on Mike, you can do it....make an ass out of yourself, I mean ;-)

Best thing about this is the pundits AND fans who want to dump all negative on the team are finally going to have to STFU. So tired of the negative BS man. And thankfully those types are finally gonna run out of material for a while.

Here's what they missed:

We had the 9th best defense last year, and now we have a better coordinator and Quinn back
We had a very strong special teams unit that features two of the strongest legs in the game.

We needed to protect Goff - check
We needed an offense designed in this century - check
We needed to get some receivers - check, check, check...

We have a chance to be good for a long time

Btw I can't wait to see what that butt-kissing Patriots fan boy Peter King will have to say on his MMQB tomorrow.

Sando is a moron, Rams have much more talent than a 3 win team. They have real skill players. Entire argument for crap record based on Goff last year and Fisher and Goff under Fisher with a team that quit.

Competition will get much better, Rams will compete.

Hear that rumbling sound?...here come the bandwagon jumpers.....

One thing that makes losing tolerable is it thins the 'wagoners out and what is left are the True Believers...
