TOP REASONS WE LOST
oline could not run block, or pass block
dline little to no pressure
penalties to many that killed drives
drops - 6 drops costing us 1st downs and more
no run game
play calling/design/execution
qb was having to try to do way to much
DBs giving up easy td(Sherman)
earl played bad
thats enough
----------
Two bad snaps killed two drives.
That's probably an average of like five points lost.
Let alone momentum lost.
Plus bad penalties by Bailey. Drive killers.
-------
we always seem to play sloppy in the rain. even though we have won rain games in the past it was usually not a good performance by the offense.
---------
Pathetic effort is why we lost. Guys just didn't seem to care today and that is very upsetting to me.
--------
Agree. Guys looked very lackadaisical out there today. Not good at all.
--------
Lack of focus
Lack of motivation
No lynch
No Okung
Baldwin at 75%
Careless with the football
Missed opportunities
This is a game that we will soon forget and shouldn't be over scrutinized IMO.
-------
Only need one. Turnovers
--------
Third and one to Tukuafu turns into 7 for the Rams, we didn't get either fumble recovery on the Gurley TD drive that's the difference on the scoreboard.
--------
What about the fact that we went back into the old philosophy of grinding out games with the run, there was alot of run run pass again and those runs couldn't do anything, so we finally started cranking it up in the 2nd half but it was too late. It was like hey let's go back to what didn't work and see if it works against this same team that had beat us before.
---------
Lack of running game really hurt the Hawks today. The scrubs that have been treading water the last couple of weeks didn't do squat against a very good D line. This is what will again if the Hawks get a chance to play the Panthers in the playoffs. really need Lynch and Okung back.
Temps were just above freezing so that kinda explains why the players looked like their hands were freezing and they couldn't feel them. RW didn't even seem to notice he fumbled the ball on the last series. Earl Thomas played like he had no arms today, didn't grab the ball when it was near his belly and didn't wrap up while "tackling" today.
--------
A decent team came up on the schedule. Hawks didn't have a patsy to beat up on so they were screwed.
---------
The perfect time for a Kick square in the nuts if you ask me!
----------
Because they were playing against case keenum and had zero sacks.
Unless one happened in garbage time i didn't notice
And one td was the difference between winning and losing today. No excuse for sherm to let a receiver run right by him.
In the first game fisher had his clowns do the same thing to Sherman, and beat him then too, but Richard got away with a blatant PI.
Playing blame the O, blame the D, is a lost cause. But to even insinuate the defense is blameless is positively false.
--------
We lost because the Oline got their butts handed to them and out hustled as well. That was the root cause of the major problems we had today.
--------
Looked like the team treading water all season until the latest hot streak.

17 qb hits enough said
17 official qb hits, that is another huge reason we lost

Congratulations to the rams on their Super Bowl victory!!
Good job boys! By the way you were celebrating on the sidelines you just won the biggest game of your lives.
Now go work on your golf games.
--------
Both the cards and Rams came here and won and literally acted like it was the biggest win of their lives
--------
For many of them, it was the biggest game of their NFL careers, so that fits.
--------
They ended that "Seahawks have held a lead in 62 straight games" streak... can't blame 'em for doing cartwheels.
--------
It's utterly meaningless, but that's all the Rams under Fisher know.
---------
Really? You can find stats for anything. Having a lead in a game, does that count in the win column?
They need to celebrate something. They play one more game and then sit on their couches, whatever city that may be in. They are used to this ending, it is just a little bit easier to accept that they suck this way.
--------
Those streaks only matter to announcers. Gives them something to talk about.
So if the Rams are celebrating that, I pity them.
---------
You act like no Seahawk fan has brought up that stat in the last 4 years. Stop.
The Rams should celebrate this. They swept the defending NFC Champion.
--------
Last week, Seahawks fans were celebrating their Super Bowl victory. The playoff wins were a foregone conclusion.
--------
Where is the congratulations for redalice and all the Rams fans? Where's the same love fest when Arizona won the division? Or is that for the NFL forum?
-------
I hate that we lost to them twice this season but come on what do you expect them to do come in here and not try? They got the bounces and most of the calls with the ball being wet all day it caused some random outcomes and we should be getting Kam and Lynch back next week or in the wild card round things to look forward to.
---------
Meh, they deserved it, they were more physical than us on both sides of the ball and made a very good team look terrible. It's annoying that they seem to only show up twice a year, and Fisher's still a douchebag but despite their perennial mediocrity I for one would be very happy to see them depart our division.
Here's hoping they can boast of sweeping the Super Bowl 50 champions come February. The little victories...

How in the world do we get swept by the Rams?
Unbelievable. I just don't understand it. We are a better team than them but obviously we didn't show it.
--------
The Rams play up to hype. They went on the road and beat us and arz. But don't play well against crap teams. There's a reason they are out of the playoffs again.
-------
We need to completely revise our offense against them. Have a st Louis play book basically.
Everything needs to be quick. Play action is almost futile. Misdirection would be nice, like a lockett jet sweep or something.
--------
Turnovers and penalties and not matching their intensity. We miss Norton. This team needs someone to get them jacked up.
-------
Timing. Fisher's Rams are dangerous under precisely two circumstances: At the beginning of the year, when their D-Line is fresh and offenses are still coming together, and at the end of the year when they have nothing to play for.
Also, dude fell down in coverage in the season-opener.
--------
They play us tough every game.
I'm shocked it's the first time it's happened since '04
Every Game with them is a war.
---------
Our offensive line is uncompetitive against them. Everything else is flukely bullcrap.
--------
they have always known how to play RW and Fisher just outcoaches Pete
