Agree 110% with the whole post and then you read my mind with this one.
Was gonna mention the Great Mr. Campbell. Just didn't for what ever reason. :fistbump1: :beer2:
Might have to go pick up some of these in honor of them both.

Anyone else a little worried about Henry being out for the season just before we face them? You know how many times a team will play above their level when they lose a guy like Henry. Just play them as if Henry were still in the backfield.

Just gotta put that out of their heads and go play their game (and not gift them anything stupid like Wentz did yesterday).

P.S. I have the same blanket as your avatar.

Bad news for a great player. Personally I was looking forward to seeing Henry against our D, but that's football.
Can’t say I was looking forward to seeing Henry against our run defense but he was fun to watch and I hope he comes back 100%. He’s a class act.

That sucks to see it. Henry's a classy guy, and it sucks to see him injured.

But I hope we absolutely fucking maul Adrian Peterson. Hate that guy as a person.

bro they got two legit #1 receivers and a good QB
And no more stacked boxes trying to stop Henry, giving much more attention the QB and WR's. I'll guess we'll see how good they are without Henry.

This is still going to be a tough out.

My thoughts exactly.

The Rams have done pretty well over the years when facing top QBs or RBs. They do a good job of breaking down film and preparing.

It's when they face unknowns that they seem to always get in trouble.

So many times we've seen the star QB or RB go out and I've thought "our chances just got better" only to be reminded time and time again that everyone in the NFL is there for a reason and talent matters but preparation matters more.
Now I get uncomfortable when the other team loses somebody so instrumental to what they do. Espescially when it's someone like Henry whose talents are so singular.

Who tf knows how they'll attack us now?
(However this week is a wash with the DonVonFlosey Defense making its debut)

Dont crown this as a victory just yet. We might be facing a fresh and hungry AP with everything to prove. I can remember a number of times last year where Adrian Peterson was counted out due to age and he ran through teams like a tank.

I'm not so sure this game's gonna be tough. I live in Memphis and I can tell you first hand the Titans are an up and down team from one week to the next.

I do think we'll put up more points but this will still be a good test of whether the Rams can handle the Titans' physicality. They've bulldozed a lot of teams the last few years.

When the Rams play playoff contenders, I WANT THEIR BEST because it's a fair measure.

First thing out of the mouth of some when the Rams beat Tampa was "they didn't have AB"

It is what it is...but I'd rather Henry was healthy and playing!!!

But then the Packers go beat the midgets missing all those players.

I‘d be shocked if we don’t get a super competitive game.
