May be he decided they weren't really ready and he wasn't going to show out anything againt that team and wanted to just get back to the west coast. He figured they were going to lose a few games anyway and he will ramp up the next time they meet and in the playoffs to beat the 9ers soundly. Go Rams.
Always interesting to read these threads after the game. I admit, I wasn't sure what would go down. But some comments gave me a chuckle.
Offense played very well... after they kicked off that remaining rust.
Defense still has me concerned - the score only tells a part of the story:
1] They still look undisciplined (coaching)
2] The ended up going against Winston who hasn't been relevant in years and showed that.
Had Dart played the entire game, I think the Rams still win - but the score is much closer.
Onto DEN. To me, a much better test than the Giants without Dart.
Each week, we'll learn more about the 2026-2027 Rams. Hopefully Nacua is back this week.

I seriously think that when you have a bright "emergency vest" type color among all the other mundane colors it helps the quarterback find his receivers among the jumble of players.
And it sure looks like it did last night.
I had no idea what to expect after the first game. Now I have a better idea. 3 tough games coming up. Win a couple then go on a run. We have a tougher schedule than the whiners and shithawks. But its doable.
Yeah it reminded me of the ketchup vs mustard game. [Winston vs case keenum) game against Tampa? I think?
For me, I still lack the confidence that McVay has probably earned.
Maybe it's all those really bad years/coaches that destroyed my confidence.

We always have the tough schedule compared to them. However, all these teams are beatable.
It may seem that way ... and ... sometimes, it can even work-out that way based on injuries, and some teams improvements vs. other teams declines ... but schedules are based on a simple formula that does not allow for any wiggle-room by the League.

I know schedules are based on Placement in your division. Its just bad luck I suppose.
I think it's pretty even.
All 3 play Denver, Philadelphia, Dallas and Kansas City.
We get Buffalo and Green Bay
SF gets Minnesota
Seattle gets Chicago.
We beat the Giants. If Dart is healthy for SF and Seattle, they could present a tougher opponent than what we saw last night. Or at least an opponent equally as tough as Green Bay. Plus SF and Seattle play each other twice. Of course we need to at least split with both of them.
As much as it can be
Correct; and that's because the NFC West plays the NFC East and the AFC West this season.
That is 8 common opponents right there.
For the other two NFC divisions. it's one opponent each; and it is based on where teams finished in 2025.
Seattle (1st) has the Bears (1st)
Rams (2nd) have the Packers (2nd)
Niners (3rd) ... Vikings (3rd)
Cardinals (4th) ... Lions (4th)
That leaves just one more opponent to get to 17 games ... for this season, it's the NFC West vs. the AFC East; and, again, it's based on where teams finished in 2025. Rams (2nd) play the Bills (2nd)
The match-up of Divisions is on a rotating basis. Last year the NFC West played the NFC South.
This year it's the NFC East. So, in 2027, the Rams, Seahawks, 49ers and Cards will all play the NFC North ... Packers, Lions, Bears and Vikings ... UGH.
Why is this site so slow ?
After Aikman and Buck dissing flyovers I can not stand the sound of their voices. I love military aviation. Known all the airplanes and helicopters since I was a little kid. Merica.
The game, we showed up and took our place as a top team in the NFL and are only going to get better as AD gets more time and Garret comes back. Should have Puka in Denver. This game could have easily been 42-3.
The Bronco are not all that........ and going down.

Buck is an asshole IMHO. Aikman I don't mind since he retired. He grew up a Rams fan (and probably still is).
