No, we fucked up. The Eagles aren't great. They needed all the fuck ups and lots of help from the refs to barely beat us. Fuck that team and their delusional ass fans.

Eagles were trying to go at the strength of our Defense in the first half which is the front line. When they started attacking us on the outside the game changed. Our Corners couldn't hold up especially on 3rd down. Give Hurts credit though, he was accurate even after our pass rush had roughed him up a bit. Stafford was off the whole game and Adams dropped a TD, Stafford missed him for another assuming Adams would have caught it. So far Adams feels like square peg, round hole.

Funny but probably true. Yet when some complained about Limmer staying on the team, we were questioned. I'm not big on him at all especially since the last playoff game plus his weak off season. Yes I would have rather kept Lampkin but its all done now. Limmer is a dam turnstile and liability. Not a fan of this dude at all.
He had way too much time in the second half.
It’s like they changed their whole approach on defense, instead of crushing the snake’s head while your foot was on it.
There were several second half plays where the corners were about 10 yds off the ball on 3rd and longs.
I was yelling at the TV for them to get up on the ball a little bit.
Dammit!!!!

The refs definitely fall into the equation, that can't be discounted. However, Rams definitely fucked themselves over the most with dumb ass wasted opportunities.
Somehow Packers losing to Browns makes me feel a bit better.
How do we think the Rams feel as they board the plane home? I am guessing they are more pissed than us.
Lets go beat the Colts.
Lets go beat the Colts.
Haven't been this pissed about football in a while. Cannot fucking believe what I saw in that second half.
I can't count how many spots where the Rams had the win, but either a player or a coach did not perform.
The Rams are a good team that needs to learn how to be great. The talent is there. It is on coach to do better... DEMAND better. No more free passes for anyone, including his besties.

Some strange play calling by McVay in the second half.
A great run pass balance in the first half.
I think everyone knew the Eagles were going to make a second half run.
I don't understand....and maybe I don't get it....but, I don't understand running a wr sweep to the short side of the field. That was a minor thing.
Throwing deep on third and two seemed to let the defense dictate where the ball was going. They matched up Adams one on one outside and the Rams went deep. I do understand why, however, that is a low percentage attempt on a deep ball at a key moment.
Then on fourth and two to run a deep hand off going behind Limmer at RG is nonsensical. Makes zero sense.
I think Limmer needs to not come in at G really under any circumstance at this point. The Eagles ran a lot of man coverage which surprised me.
The holding on Shelton was brutal timing, took 4 points off the board....although he should have gotten a 2 point take down. That was a big boy hold.
Stafford was not good today.
Missed some gimme throws for first downs (especially the 3 yard out to Adams) in drives that resulted in FGs. They drives may have stalled out anyway, but, not very Stafford throws. The Stafford Staredown was in affect today. Only 5 players caught passes today.
That said, when it was nails time, Stafford got it done by just locking onto Puka and some good running.
No excuse for two blocked kicks....that is bizarre. The offense came through with a clutch drive in the last 1:44 or so and looked cool and under control doing it.
Now that I have calmed down from throwing a baby fit at end of the game....there were some good things today.
The run game looked really good. Over 5 yards a carry.
I think Dedich should remain the starting LG. He is playing very well in both phases.
Corbin looks great. He seems to have taken another step from last year.
Young had another impactful game. The Rams effort to beef up against the run seems to have been successful.
People get on Forbes and he gave up that TD late, but, that is a tough spot. Maybe he gave up outside leverage too soon but he also made some good plays. The Rams don't have a CB to match up with Brown if Witherspoon isn't there. Witherspoon is over 6 feet tall and has enough physical presence to hang with him. The Safeties played well over all and Lake had four pass break ups.
Overall, a brutal loss that was disappointing.
Gotta finish more drives for TDs is the take away.
That and keep running the ball.
Two more challenging games coming up.
The Colts have a good roster and are sort of sneaky good and the Whiners are the Whiners.
Ever forward.

Agreed.
Id probably promote what's his nuts from the practice squad....the issue is depth at C.
Limmer was better at C.
Dotson came back in which is huge, but, at this point the Rams have one guy at G depth at this point.

I still think the road loss to a truly terrible Jets team is his worst, but, this is up there in the sense of blowing the game.
But, that Jets was really terrible.
This Eagles team is the defending Super Bowl champs at home. They were 18-1 over their last 19 coming in.
There is no shame in losing this game....the way it was lost, thats another story.
