Because even with the rest of the game Keenum played well enough to get the win if Kendricks doesn't drop that. Why is that surprising?

No, he didn't. That's not how football works. Case Keenum did not play well enough to get the win today. The defense almost carried the rest of the team to a win today. Keenum doesn't get credit for that. Enough of this terrible logic. People used to say the same thing about every bad QB we've started the past few years. Losing a close game where your defense held the opponent under 20 points does not mean the QB played well enough to win. It means the opposite.(barring something completely crazy)

Yeah, Keenum just misses way too many easy deep balls that completely change the game. I mean that's just one sample but he's just not a starting NFL QB. He's great to have as a backup but starting no way.

Yes he did. 6 points missed on field goals, 7 more missed on a drop at the goal-line.
Spin it however you like, that's 13 points and a win.

But X, the two FG's were not realistic..like 54 yards each....Someone else said this, and I agree with it..Zeurline has a helluva leg, but he has never proven accurate at that distance..Fisher set him up to fail today....So that leaves you with 7 points...

No, he didn't. The defense played well enough to win. Keenum played badly enough to cost us the game.

What about the wide open TD Case missed to Quick
Yep. That too.
But they still were within 3, even after Kendricks dropped that TD in his chest.
But I'm not down on Kendricks. He had a good game too. Shit just happens.

Maybe they'll create a Super Bowl for teams who lose because of the excuses we continue to hear for the Rams. And Case Keenum can be the Pro Bowl starter too

Really don't know how anyone can say Keenum played well enough to win. He consistently made bad throws and stupid mistakes.

Just because Rams lost by only 3 and Kendricks dropped a easy TD, GZ missed a couple fgs that chip shots, the game never should have been close or come down needing an onside kick and a miracle FG to tie the game after how well the D played

BTW....Let's not forget Panthers missed a FG also

What would that be called?
And be creative. Don't say loser bowl or excuse bowl. Put some thought into it.

It's amazing how that works. Kendricks played a great game. Got some tough yards and converted some 1st downs.
He played a solid game and had a drop. That's 1 play. Keenum played like crap for 3 quarters
