The decision to overturn the Tutu TD and let the Wilson INT stand had me as angry as I've been at a football game in a good while. Completely inconsistent calls. The evidence of the Wilson INT hitting the ground without him having possession was far stronger than the evidence that Tutu's heel touched out of bounds. Overturning that play was literally the difference between the Rams winning and losing.

This is exactly how I felt. There simply was NOT overwhelming evidence of his heel touching to over turn the call. Its literally in the description of overturning a call made on the field with instant reply. Must. Be. Undeniable. How on earth was it undeniable? And yes, that pick hit the ground. Period. That was undeniable.

Even with Tutu's TD called back, zero reasons we didn't punch it in. 3 runs would have 100% done that.

McVay is a play design guru. He is a great head coach with a major flaw. He is not a game manager. He DOES NOT need to be play calling in a game. His OC needs the reigns during games. Is he too hard headed and too much of a control freak to change? I fear his genius is getting in the way of common sense. And it’s frustrating as hell to watch. With that said, GO RAMS! Beat the Colts!

It does feel like often our adjustment to plan B is more Plan A

I never saw a replay of the disputed pick. They went to commercial and came back lined up on the ball saying INT upheld. Fishy as hell and the announcers never mentioned it again. The NFL is going to shit along with the rest of the world.

The refs exhibited a blatant double standard with the two decisions: they based one on incontrovertible evidence, and the other on the lack of it.

The announcers, who are programmed to automatically agree with the refs, openly thought Tutu was in, the INT was dropped and that it was a horse collar tackle.
Now the outcome of the game likely wouldn’t have changed because McVay coached like he would have lost a game of tic tax toe even if you game him 3 moves to start but still

No one watching the game thought with conviction that Tutu stepped out of bounds. Only the refs in some room in New York thought so.

That interception was a BS call also. Ball was moving all the way to the ground.

I does make one wonder.

I wish coaches were willing to pony up for the fines and just call shitty officiating what it is. Fans see it, coaches see it...call it out and maybe the league will be embarrassed enough at some point to do something about it.

i am probably the only one here who thinks that the passing was alright but what i don't understand is that we were using nacua as a decoy the whole 2nd half. it's just another case of mcvay outsmarting himself.

Someone tell me the RAMS stayed in Cincy/Indy for the week, w/o returning to LA and back again.....
Would that not make some sense?

I put more blame on McVay.. but Stafford was bad.

2 decisions by Stafford stand out…
Taking the sack on first & goal at the 3 and the first Int.

But.. if McVay had run the ball from the three… No sack.

The coach cost us the game. Lost by 3 points. 1st quarter. 1st and goal from the 3. YOU RUN THE FUCKING BALL COACH.
Then run it again if you do not make it. THEN, and only then do you throw it. A TD here and we win the game.
Instead, shotgun formation, sack, field goal.
Next possession. 2nd and one, and he did not just run it and get the 1st down, punt.
How many things have to go right on a pass play vs a simple run play. Many more to pass so that dictates things, RUN the ball when you need short yardage.
And IF YOU PASS, do it under center. Runs out of the shotgun suck and they always will. No head of steam for the RB.
Monday night on the road, hostile. Run game travels well and they can not sack you if you run the ball coach.
Just think about it Sean. Just how great would your passing game be if you had a good running game ?
McVay over thought himself.
Run coach, just like Forrest Gump, run.

Bad Stafford can't hit the safety/outlet throw to the RB in the flat time after time.

McVay not running in the red zone and more often overall.

Refs taking away Tutu's TD early.

A little bit unlucky tip for INT.

The defense played hard. They want to compete.

Rams and Stafford miss Kupp. Hopefully, Stafford will keep finding Puka and Tutu when he comes back.

O Line depth is weak.
