Expectations Game vs the Giants

I look for this to be Rochell's coming out party.

My username should tell you all you need to know about the importance of this game to me. I am very much in Giant country and this is my mini Super Bowl. I’ve already begun the trash talk. Spent too many years growing up rooting for the late Bulger/Bradford etc Rams not to relish these moments

You must have loved the Rams 51-17 blowout of the Giants in 2017.

Absolutely. I’m hoping for a similar game tomorrow

Barkley, Jones, and Golladay are injured and the starting LT didn't play vs. the Cowboys. On paper it looks like an unfair advantage for the Rams, but you play who's in front of you. Of course the Rams should win in a cake walk, but we know that probably won't happen in a Met Life East Coast game. The other part is that McVay could get up by three scores early and decide to just pound the ball and Morris will play his prevent defense. This will result in a score that make it seem like a closer game than it actually was, and the Skip Baylesses and Colin Cowherds of the media World will diminish the Rams somehow because they didn't beat them by as many points as the Cowgirls did...... So unless Sean goes out of character and channels his inner Mike Martz, the Rams will win by 7-10 points and will get hate because of it......

What do you think the media will say if the Rams only win by a TD?

Man I hate that this sounds so right. If I see prevent in the 3rd I'm gonna lose it

That was a close game into the second quarter.

Key play was a third-and-33.
At the snap, analyst Tiki Barber said 'there is no play for third-and-33'.
WR-screen to Woods went for 50-plus and a touchdown. Tiki did not say a word. Never been a fan of Tiki.

Next Rams' possession. Goff stepped-up into a clean pocket and hit Watkins for a 68-yard-TD.

Take nothing for granted. We barely escaped with a win over them last year.

Well, we lost to the J E T S last year. I am just hoping for a W and no new injuries.

We don't have Blythe this year so....

The X Factor difference = Matthew freakin' Stafford

 

[Kupped]

More than anything... I want a clean game in all three phases and no injuries.
If that happens? The score will take care of itself.

Don’t care what the media thinks hah! Usually post stuff in those threads for the laughs and to share. I think we should win handily, you should beat up teams like this but won’t be upset with a close one. Traveling cross country for a 10 am game is rarely good.

fyi

You WILL become part of Colin's Herd and listen to Skip Bayless on a loop for the next week! No shirking your outrage responsibilities!

A win is priority 1 but If all 3 Rams units play a clean game resulting in a 3 point win - then mission accomplished.

 

[HE WITH HORNS]

We should beat them easily, but you never know in this league. I expect to win by two touchdowns.

I can't talk about that person, no one can.

The Giants defense was no cakewalk last year. I don't know if they've gotten worse or if they are just a bad matchup for the Rams. I can't go into the weekend thinking its going to be an easy win.

But our offense has gotten better. Not only significantly at QB, but also with the ability to take the top off the defense with Jackson. McVay will try to make their offense one dimensional, making the statuesque Glennon a nice stationary target for Aaron Donald..

Having said that, we tend to back off the jets when the Rams get up on a team by halftime, like I said in the OP.
