1. ARE YOU FREAKIN' KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
2. So many chances to put this one away....
3. In a game this close, it always comes down to a few mistakes.
4. In the first half, the Rams gave up two TDs on blown coverages. Those two plays really obscured a strong start to the game by the defense (including a first drive stop!).
5. The two errors getting a play off in time cost us a key time out on the final drive in regulation, and a chance to extend a drive in overtime. Those are really inexcusable. We've seen our offense play on the margin when it comes to getting plays off. Today, it finally bit us.
6. Finally, the coverage on the game winning punt return was atrocious. Again, its an area we've been teetering on the edge of for a while, and today it killed us.
7. Glass Half Full: we went toe-to-toe with one of the top 5 teams in football on their own field.
8. Glass Half Empty: yet another close game in which we fell short. This could be the story of the season in the end.
9. There was definitely some good today. My Offensive MVP this week, once again, is Matthew Stafford. He did a great job spreading the ball around and pushing the game into overtime against another top defense.
10. Kyren Williams also had another excellent performance. With 114 yards rushing, he now has surpassed 800 yards on the ground in 9 games. He is a true catalyst for this offense.
11. Nice 1-2 punch from Cooper Kupp (115 yards, TD) and Puka Nacua (84 yards).
12. You have to love the contribution from Davis Allen and Demarcus Robinson.
13. Hope Rob Havenstein is okay. I thought Joe Noteboom did a fairly good job (though he did miss a block on a screen that may have cost us a chance at a long FG attempt) in his place.
14. My defensive MVP is Ernest Jones (10 tackles, 1 sack, 1 PD, 1 QB hit, several pressures).
15. Damn, Lamar Jackson is hard to corral!
16. Still a lot of key games to be played, but we'll still be in the thick of the playoff race at the end of this week. Next three games (Washington, New Orleans, @ NYG) are very winnable, particularly the way our team has been playing in the last few weeks.
17. Though there were a few questionable calls, overall I'd say McVay did a very good job again today. Second week against a Top 5 defense with some great success.
18. "Moral victory" is an empty cliche, but I have to believe that today's performance (1) only served to enhance our young team's confidence, and (2) shows the potential of this team's core.
19. I'm exhausted from watching this one!
20. Keep moving forward!
