What about when Stafford made that miracle pass with three monster linemen bearing down on him. All three of them landed on him with their full body weight. Not one, three. Couldn't believe they didn't throw a flag. That 15 yards could have made all the difference.

Yeah when it came down to it Ben Johnson just ran at will. I hope the injuries are minor. We have a good team on our hands.

Most encouraged I felt from a loss in a while. Season will boil down players health like always but I think they can play with anybody.

it was going to be tuff against such an outstanding Oline. Let's see how they do next week

Fiske is not ready for prime time. He got bulldozed a few times on that OT drive. Learning experience for him.

Didn't expect a win going in to the game but it hurt just the same after I got my hopes up that they would pull it out.
Another thing I felt going in was that if we play Detroit again with our OL intact down the stretch we will be the better team. The Rams playing them that tough with depth tackles strengthened that opinion for me. Lions better hope they don't see us again this year.
Stafford is probably the best QB in the league right now. I don't think many QBs would have us in that game with that OL play we saw tonight. He threw some shitty passes. But given the protections and what he did overall to keep us in this game I forgive him those throws.
Speaking of the OL, they got noticeably better the minute Limmer came in. Edges still sucked, particularly Arcuri who was totally overmatched, but the interior settled down significantly. I expect Limmer is our new starting Center.
On that final drive in OT the Lions duo'd Fiske into the ground. Felt like he had a lot of doubles, though of course I am sure all that will come out in the week of people going through the film.
Overall quite happy with our defense, who kept us in it until they got tired in OT. That is an extremely well coached unit. Also I like that they got some stops on the opponent's side of the field. That was nice.
I expect there will be some juggling of depth chart after this game, and I think that was always going to be the case. Reeder for example played well, but I think he is on borrowed time. Rozeboom also played well, but he may be as well. Limmer. Starting three wideouts are probably Kupp > Johnson > Robinson. Wasn't too great a game by Robinson by the way, but it's not like Tutu will do anything about that.
Speaking of which is there a reason to have Tutu on the roster. Kept asking this in preseason when the Rams were hiding him like he had a diamond up his ass or something. But the guy is not even remotely someone you want on the field ever. Over anyone on that depth chart. And he can't do shit for special teams either. Why he got that roster spot I will never know, as we cut returners to keep his ass around.
Noteboom had a couple decent run blocks but the guy was trucked in pass pro all night prior to getting hurt. At this point Arizona should be licking their chops and planning an assault on whoever is in there for us. Even if he returns, which I think is possible, as I suspect the guy doesn't have the highest threshold of playing through pain. I will give him that Arcuri was worse, which I was not sure would be the case, but still I cannot recall a player for whom there was more belief by the team and staff than Joe Noteboom, when he in fact rarely delivers good results if he's got a rusher with any power on him.
Glad to see Durant out there to finish the game. At least I think I saw him after the reports he was hurt. That dropped INT was disappointing but overall I don't think the corners hurt us too bad. Given that we were playing a loaded and explosive offense at home.
Honestly I don't think the Rams had any business being in that game like they were. So nice job by the staff and the players showing well, gonna forget this shit and move on and hope AJ realizes his fucking decisions affect the team and that shit is considered when you pay a franchise LT.

1. Proud of our team, gutsy performance despite the injuries.
2. McVay, these kids need to run some hills. We had a significant possession differential, and we came out flat in OT.
3. I expected a similar outcome.
4. Turner, you need to rediscover your game. You made Glasgow an all pro tonight.
5. Hats off to Limmer and Arcuri. Limmer was great in relief. Arcuri as well. I didn’t expect much since he was lining up against an all pro. Campbell’s staff got in the official’s ear and induced a couple of questionable calls.
I hope we get Have back next week. Not giving up on the season, but there should be some solid lessons learned.

I hate that Stafford had to deal with all that in our opener, after a healthy offseason.

Nope. This is the Rams where players are protected to the point of insanity from the prying eyes and minds of the press. Granted there are some advantages to that. But I find it quite fucking irritating that we can't know WHY the dude is suspended. It is completely assinine.

Detroit is a dirty fucking team. I don't care what anyone says. They had multiple incidents of more contact than they should have, to include shit like grabbing Stafford's wrapped ankle. Fuck those bastards and I'm gonna be glad when they get knocked out of the playoffs. Because they're gonna get knocked out.

McClendon played well. He was a bright spot. The pressure came from the left most of the time.
Let's hope Avila is okay and that Hav can be back so McClendon can move to LT.

We were not going to ram the ball down Detroit's throat at the end of the game with 2nd string linemen against the #1 rushing defense in the NFL last year.
in fact a big reason we did not kill more clock was because they tried to run the ball on 1st down and lost two yards to make it 2 and 12.

Enough with the celebration bullshit.
Second string Oline on the road in a hostile environment, and we call 2 passes for every rush attempt in a very close game? This loss is on the play calling. At one point it was 4 pass attempts to every rush. Unacceptable.
But you guys can keep talking about how good we did.

So anybody have any comprising photos of AD to force him to play 5 more years? lol
It’s been a long time since seeing our D-Line caving in like that. Obviously week 1 fatigue but still. Smh
