I don't even know what to say. This was so close to a perfect football day, and then bam, it's all ruined over stupid shit!

Special shoutout to the refs. Your bullshit and incompetence yet again undermines a great game.

Without question, the worst officiated game— college or pro, I’ve seen in a while.

That said, McVay has to be better. The Eagles ran 40(!!!!!) more offensive plays than we did. Part of that is poor secondary play but not controlling the clock and keeping their O on the sideline was fatal. His refusal to ride Gurley has cost this team 2 of its 4 losses, and will no doubt cost them down the road unless he learns.
It also helped the refs calling tick tack penalties on 3rd down when we stopped em

That one's on McVay. Calling a deep shot with Williams in at RT vs. the Eagles wasn't smart. (Goff fumble)

Can't win 'em all.
I'm excited about this team's ascension after the past 4 years.
A play here or a call there, and this is a different story.
Eagles won, and that's that. Onto next week.

Rams lost the game, but Eagles got the worst of it today.

Looks like Wentz tore his ACL.

That ends his season and could affect his career.

It's inexplicable to me how badly the Rams folded on offense and defense after Wentz went out and Foles came in.

You don't allow two late scoring drives to the backup QB if you're a good defense. Period.
And they couldn't stop Gurley all day and yet McVay decides to sling it all over the field including a crucial 3rd and 2.
Terrible 4th qtr. Dare i use the word choke? So irritated with this late collapse.

Oh and yeah the NFL officiating is beyond incompetent.
Worst than choking. That was straight up complacency

Refs tucked them over. The Rams did what they had to. Even the 'M the grasp' call was bad. Should have been illegal touching and move them back further for field goal. Lousy call on field goal chews more time off the clock.

Who was the head ref anyway?

Agreed.. but look where we have been at the last several years. We hung in against "the best" team in NFC. Hard to beat the "best team" and "the refs". Need a good game vs the Hags though.

As soon as I saw Long lined up over Williams I had the feeling it was not gong to end well

Talk about the refs literally taking away 2 minutes off the clock at the end which ultimately didn't give us another possession. I'm proud of how we played, but I'm really pissed about the loss. Trumaine Johnson totally screwed us as well. Very upsetting.

Hopefully they all learn from their mistakes. Trumaine's taunting call was BS. The play Chris Long made...McVay trying to throw long with Havenstein just went out...not smart. If I was Wade, I would have blitz the crap out of Foles and make him beat you. We rushed four and it hurt...just like on the TD where Wentz had all day to throw.
Everyone brings up the taunt but seems to forget the 60+ yard pi call that cost us a TD in the end as well

Huge playoff implications here. We went from a golden position, able to almost lock up the West next week, to absolutely having to win at Seattle to avoid possibly drawing the short straw in a close wild card race, in which 10-6 might not be good enough.

Not a lot of confidence to bring neither, with that absolute choke of a 4th Quarter. Goff had the opportunity to start a rep here as a game winning QB, but came up real short.

I thought they should have went for it with two minutes left. I new they weren't going to stop the Eagles with a three and out. The Rams deserve this loss.
