Watch or listen to this - great episode. Rodgers discusses that last drive and McVay's change of strategy. It was that drive and McVay's playcalling that pushed him over the hump from being a very good coach to an elite coach - and a Super Bowl champion coach.

Awww man. I waited until my commute home. I was hoping for an epic Skip rager rant. All he did was blame refs and whine about "what if" scenarios. Disappointed.

Yes, but wasn't it great to listen to him whine? He is so defeated now ... and his tears are delicious!

Where do I begin. Cowherds take on Stafford is spot on. Stafford knows who he is and is a mature quietly confident man. In the right setting (like the current Rams organization) he shows why he is a true leader of men and not just a talented gunslinger who wants you to “look at me when I succeed” but “point to someone else when I don’t succeed”. The Rams are lucky to have found Stafford and he will be someone that Rams fans will be pulling for long after he’s hung up his cleats. Well done Cowherd.

Meh Vegas has us as the 3rd best odds behind the same two teams. Those things are almost never right not a problem

“I don’t think Higgins twisted his head”, Skip tried so hard to throw cold water on the Rams win, I don’t know how he did it with a straight face.

In the end, he only ended up throwing cold water on himself. He's more or less a court jester nowadays, with guys like Shannon there to humiliate him (well, when he's not humiliating himself anyway).

Yea fully agree, just hope we look to invest in OL this off-season for once. With Whit retiring and the Allen/Corbett situations, who knows how this line looks next year. Stafford hangs in the pocket and goes through his progressions which leads to him taking a lot of hits. He just turned 34 and I'm hoping we can get at least another 4 years of elite play from him. I want to win another SB!!! In order to keep him healthy I think we should try and invest money or picks to bringing in elite OL talent. And as I type this I know it probably wont happen given McVay's track record but I hope he sees the light.

And let me guess — the first half of those people have not a thing to say about the face mask TD.
The Van J pass was PI too they just didn't show it or talk about it much.
It was interesting how quiet Collinsworth was about questionable calls. No doubt he was being directed not to feed any controversey
Easily the most moronic take i'm hearing today from a few media morons is that Burrow looked like the better QB yesterday.

Words can't explain just how ignorant that is.
LOL, take away the PI and Chase burning Ramsey and he has like 100 yds or something. The agendas to justify a narrative is hilarious.

Yeah, former-Jets GM and Miami executive Mike Tannenbaum said exactly that earlier today.

Tannenbaum, like Scott Pioli (Patriots, Chiefs and Falcons) and Marc Ross Giants), were very critical of the Rams trading-away their high draft choices; and, accordingly, are extremely reluctant to say anything positive regarding the Rams' strategy and success.

As long-time team-executives, these guys value high draft choices as comparable to their own children. So trading them away is frowned-upon. Typically, they have under-valued the Rams' talent and chance for success. When the Rams win, these guys look dopey, and have the need to come-up with negative comments or takes regardless of whether they have any factual merit.

Their strategy is to double and triple down on being wrong, rather that simply adjusting their opinions and through process.

There are a few exceptions but such individuals need to have credibility and a recognition of truth and facts. Jim Trotter of the NFL Network, who today admitted he had little faith n Matthew Stafford entering the Post-Season but was proven wrong by Stafford's stellar-play,

Yeah I remember Tannenbaum throwing cold water on the Rams multiple times throughout the season on Get Up. He doubled and tripled down after the Von Miller and OBJ moves. He’s a bitter hack!

the chiefs and bills with their shit defenses pose no obstacle to the rams.

.
Perhaps but they may improve those units while we lose players. It's early and not even the off season yet besides it's a QB driven league and those are two of the hottest young QB names in the game.
