VENT Rams fall to Cardinals

[BC Ramfan]

I think the refs are sending a message to McVay for telling the press that the league office admitted the refs fucked up in PI call in Denver.

Actually the refs will fuck up, it happens.
The real issue is why New York / the NFL didn't correct the bad calls.
All 3 times.
That makes me think. this isn't the Rams' year. And the NFL wants it that way.

The Announcers and On play call analyst said that it wasnt a Foul, and Replay Assist should have Over turned it there.

Agreed....think the refs have long decided that if its an end of the game controversial penalty fuckin the Rams, they aren't overturning it. Doesn't even matter if the rules analyst disagrees. Puka pissed them off last year and so did McVay this year with his disclosure of the league admitting they were wrong.

If Parkinson doesnt score there, we win.....

Worm has to turn at some point.....3 losses on the last play of the game...

 

[Giles]

I don’t know how you can watch the pass protection and think that. We are lucky Stafford finished the game. He was getting his head knocked off every other drop back.

Easy. It's his job to make the damn plays against the worst defense in football. Stafford was only hit 7 times...7. Goff was hit 5 and Winston was hit the same amount. Both those teams scored way more than we did with what the vast majority of this board would say are worst teams than us with worse qbs and worse playcallers. Only scoring 16 points against a trash defense like the cards is inexcusable considering what we have.

Alaric being out opened the door for the blitz after blitz.

McVay and Stafford couldn't come up with a way to beat it until too late.

Yeah, I think it mattered. McVays 4th down with the TE did not help either.
Then you have the refs.
Fuck the refs.
They need to find Jacksons replacement ASAP. Can not rely on him.
It was a weird game. Tough to pass down the field with the Blitz,s and fuck wad Aleric gone.
That little kicker should be smart enough to hit return guys down low. His shoulder into a bigger mans shoulder is only going to get him hurt.
I did like had quick his FG got up, very quick.

 

[Loyal]

Yes. It was another bad call against us. Second time the refs got us late in a game. But lets be real. Instead of losing on a 40 yard field goal we woulda lost on a 55 yarder. We did not play well enough to win. The 32nd ranked scoring defense shut down our offense. And its probably not going to be last time a low ranked defense shuts us down. At this point there is no reason to think playoffs. By the time they get healthier it might be too late.

So who ya got iN the 2d rouNd?

Still trying to figure out how in hell I thought the Rams and Chargers (combined 2-10) could have met at SoFi in this season's SB.

 

[Pupped]

I don't think you are understanding what I am saying. Officials are in constant communication with New York, even on the field. When the flag was thrown, and the officials were discussing before the call was made, the New York officials could have easily gotten in the ears of the officials and said, that is NOT a penalty. Nobody at home even has to know. Then all they have to say is, after discussion, it was determined there is no penalty on the play.

They choose NOT to do this.

Maybe I’m wrong.

Flag was thrown, right?

I’m just saying that with the league’s priorities on headshots.. and the fact that the hit technically fulfilled the penalty requirement.. that they wouldn’t overrule.

But, either way? The Cards were gonna score.

 

[0311rams]

Heads up! Sky's falling!

 

[RAMSinLA]

Is there any news on Adams? He left the field limping.

 

[PA Ram]

I’m convinced this is his last year regardless of the outcome. We could win out and win the Super Bowl by 37 points and I still think he’s stepping away. He’s mentally fried.

Well, ESPN has not offered Aikman a contract but offered his partner one.

Joe Buck and Sean McVay?

Maybe.

 

[Karate61]

Really?! Did you miss the first 59 minutes of that absolutely wretched display of incompetence by the Rams?

Really? An NFL game is 60 minutes. The Rams were winning in that 60th minute. Did you not see the worst NFL penalty called in the history of the NFL?

 

[gabriel18]

McVay mention being humbled in post game. Shit if the first 3 losses didn’t humble you then why would this one??

Week 1 should’ve took care of that. Embarrassed would be a better choice.

It did not technically fulfill the penalty requirement. That was not in any way, shape, or form a penalty. It was a dumbass call, and the fact that the NFL isn't fixing this shit tells me that they don't care about the product.

 

[Ramlife]

Hate to say it, I agree with you here. Absolutely miserable excuse for a football team. Two drives per game is not enough for an offense like this. The defense actually was the high point.

I’m convinced this is his last year regardless of the outcome. We could win out and win the Super Bowl by 37 points and I still think he’s stepping away. He’s mentally fried.

I get the same feeling. He is getting out coached week in week out. Some of his play calls in the most crucial times have been terrible. These guys off his tree are beating him with much less talent. I dont trust this coach anymore. When you lose trust what do you have? DOUBT. When his teams have hype they fold. Today was as bad a loss he has had. The handoff to Allen?? I mean really?? Wth was that? Absolutely horrible horrendous play calls by a so called genius or whatever… he didn’t have them ready from the beginning. It shows. They are 2/4. Sad times for what looked like a promising season. Love you McVay but you have lost something somewhere.

 

[GhostTide]

Will 10-7 make the playoffs? We will have to go 8-3 rest of the way which will not be easy with the schedule we have. Personally I think we won’t make the playoffs.

 

[den-the-coach]

Think Myles Garrett wishes he stayed in Cleveland?

Yeah in the replay you see the receivers helmet move, that is what the ref saw so a flag has to be tossed.
And you are right, we just didn't play well enough to win. I think McVay may have lost this team and their confidence in him. This game was the start of the Rams easy streak for 5 or 6 games. SF is undefeated. This is a devastating loss.

Okay.

Either way.. the Cards were gonna score. Zero resistance on d and were offsides anyway.

Rams deserved to lose.

Still have three wild card teams. It's pretty much a cinch there will be no wild cards coming from the NFC East and NFC South. Rams still have a good shot here, but they have to start winning games on the schedule. This one was a giveaway. So was the Denver game.
