Saints at Rams

[Ants]

On the bright side...we get the 2nd half kickoff!

 

[Mojo Ram]

Goff needs to step up. I'm getting a little irritated and impatient with him to be honest. Not just today either.

The protection hasn't been ideal but his pocket clock looks slow. He just looks slower all around IMO. Feet, diagnosis, release. Idk.

 

[snackdaddy]

Lol, dolphins outscored 102-10 the first two games. I guess we should be glad we're not them.

 

[IE Rams]

One thing we may have in our favor is the Aints inability to control their emotions when shit starts going south for them. They have a history of that.

A couple unanswered Rams TDs could help bring that on sooner too

 

[Liberator]

I think it might be fair to say the NFL is catching up to McVay

I mean guys are open Goff is just missing them

 

[Mackeyser]

Refs took TDs from both teams. That block in the back was ticky tack and unnecessary. That incomplete call was egregious.

Game should be 10-10.

 

[RamWoodie]

It's tight...but the offense looks better. Just play the game boys...it's coming!

 

[…..]

I’m really enjoying pre season game 2

 

[Ramhusker]

This isn't your Dad's NFL. I say the disregard for a tough training camp and pre season severely diminishes the quality of play in the opening weeks of the season

 

[hotanez]

The D is killing it, if our offense can come out of it's coma we will run away with this game

I'm as much a Goff supporter as anyone. But I'm starting to get worried now. I'm beginning to think there is something about the blue print. And the claims that Goff plays poorly when you pressure him. His throws have been off for 6 quarters now.

 

[FarNorth]

Goff is not playing great.

RZ offense is hardly desirable.

Too many costly penalties.

Gurley looking a little despondent. Did someone piss in his cheerios!?

Donald with a back niggle

Blythe injured.

Demby in at Guard...

A Bree'less Saints giving us a damn tough game

"Gurley looking a little despondent. Did someone piss in his cheerios!?"

Gurley actually looks just fine when they give him the ball in or anywhere near the red zone.

Disagree. The refs took a TD/FG away from US, since Goff got nailed in the face on that fumble. So they took 10-14 pts off our board.

Watch it again.

I think he's attempting to process too much all at once. Their coverage has been extensive in terms of them dropping several guys back there. All things considered he is completing 62% of his passes thus far. I think he'll have a better second half, but that's just me.

 

[Ramstien]

Demby in there scares the hell out of me.

 

[majrleaged]

Goff is slumping big, but the play calling is week to. The bubble screen is get to predictable. Seems like he just keeps calling the same plays

 

[Merlin]

Lot of similarities from game 1 to game 2 for our OL. They got beat in the trenches for the most part vs the Panthers but recovered to get control. Let's wait and see how they respond.

But I'll say this with 100% certainty: if you can't run the ball when the defense is giving you a constant 7 man look your offense IS going to wilt in the playoffs. That is our problem right now. We're losing the battle up front so here's hoping they do something to turn this around.

Fix the run and this is a different game.

On the defensive side, our run defense looks pretty good. Even with Bridgewater the Saints have a heck of a lot of ways to sustain drives. So hope the way they're playing continues.

 

[hotanez]

I wonder if Goff is putting to much pressure on himself after the big extension. Being pressured I understand but when he has time he still looks off.

 

[Farr Be It]

I want to see some energy in the second half. First half was just flat.

Gurley running tentative. Head down back to huddle.

Zactly my friend. These games need a decent amount of beer included.

There seems to be be flashes of brilliance surrounded by unfortunate penalties or performance.

I’m encouraged by occasional displays of ryrhem but so far we aren’t able to sustain it.
