I won't excuse the first TD. D had a week's rest. But when the O goes 3 and out on the next 2 series, it makes it very challenging to play the opponent.
Todd Gurley will play against the Steelers

Hate to be negative man but Gurley can't do it alone. The Steelers have a better front 7 and are going to love that film of what the Skins did. This OL might learn from this debacle, but at this point all I can honestly expect is Black and Yellow in our offensive backfield and Gurley gettin pulled down before he has a chance to change things.
It's possible this loss to the Skins wake the Rams up. It's also typical that the Rams win the games I don't think they can win, so it would make sense that they show up. Plus it's a home game. But I'm done hoping man. I'm out of optimism, sorry to say.

The Steelers front 7 is weak. Gurley will alternate carrying their defenders for 10 yards at a time.

It's going to happen. No more complaining or doom and gloom. Todd Gurley and the Rams will beat the Steelers.
Yes. It was ineffective because we didn't block the back-side DE effectively.

No disrepect to Tre, but we have a speedy muscle car in the garage who is just crying for a test drive. Immature OL? No prolemo! The Gurley Man can create his own holes.
To the rest of the NFL, beware! The Gurley Express has been cleared for take off!!!

Totally agree. The only thing that concerns me is can the OL finally open some damn holes. I mean even AP looks average when he has no place to run.

The Rams looked tired today. I recall some stat about how teams always lose after playing against Seattle. I hope that is all it was.
The Washington defense looks so much better without Haslett coaching it. Pittsburghs defense should be just as stout.
For Gurley to make a difference there will have to be more play variation. When the other team knows what is coming it is impossible to execute......unless the play is Dickerson right, Dickerson left and you have a mostly All Pro Oline.
Havenstein has to look more like a second rounder than a 4th rounder. Lael Collins sure would have been nice here. I think each year there should be a pick in each teams draft that the fans get to vote on. Ours would have been Collins.

When the OL sees that monster coming at them, they'll get themselves and their man out of the way for pure self-preservation.

When watching Matt Jones run, I salivated at the thought of a much more talented Gurley carrying the ball in this offense. If he is what we think he is, then our offense will be fine. Our o-line will be fine with experience and remember we didn't always have a decent o-line when SJax was here and he was a freakin beast.

This is from last year - but as its the only hope I have at the moment that we're not the same incompetent team, I'm hanging onto it for all I'm worth....

Hopefully our run blocking will improve next week, we drafted a couple of maulers to see them pancaked on occasion? Redskins flat out dominated at the LOS today, if the Steelers front 7 is as dangerous as it was a couple of years back, we're in deep shit. Foles must take advantage of a weak Steelers secondary.

Just as a sidenote: I was watching a piece on Lawrence Phillips yesterday. It was about his jail experiences. When they showed clips of him it looked more like Gurley than any other runner I recall looking up.
Also: Some of Fishers presser he mentioned that Washington is a very well coached team. Is that implying that the Rams are not? He also praised Bill Callahan and his Olines play. He said it is the Cowboys all over again. Fisher really seems to like him and if he was available then he should have canned Bou in favor of Callahan. The Rams really need an Oline guru. I hope the Oline blocks better against Pittsburgh so Gurley has some holes to run through.
