Didn't realize this until just now but of course it was Derion Kendrick who got the penalty for 12 men on the field.

It’s the vent thread isn’t it? I’m venting.

Mental midget in the game day thread who think they even have a inkling of what the hell is going on, and judging by some of their posts don’t even know the proper positions and differences between a 3-4 defense or a 4-3 defense.

Sure I could spend all day posting the details why they are absolutely wrong but I have a life and don’t have the time. Hence, why they keep vomiting factual wrong content and the same people constantly think they are a genius offensive play caller who’s called plays to get our team to 2 Super Bowls.
correct....it's called fandom. The dumbest place on Earth isn't a political forum......getting mad at fans in a thread built to vent seems counterproductive, but you are right.........you are venting in a vent thread. :)

i thought part of having a good running game was to play action off it. also does shitsburg move the ball forward on short yardage plays I know on one of those short yardage plays they moved the ball Forword at least a half yard before the snap.

Sorry, that’s just not how it went. So many of the tix were hoarded by ticket brokers and companies using them as perks that most fans never had a real shot.
How do you know this as fact?

The price for the seats SSL would take brokers a decade to break even at the earliest.

Company perks? Not around us. A few seats behind us never have the same peeps in them and they show up on the ticket exchange every week. In our section there are some seats that are consistently on the NFL Ticket Exchange. I know of one story that the couple are trying to sell their SSLs at cost but no takers. If it was such a hot commodity for the brokers why are they not being grabbed up by the ticket broker hoarders?

Even during our Super Bowl run there was not much profit to be had.

We are passionate fans. But there are more for other teams out there. Every single opposing fan who is in a SoFi seat could have been occupied by a Rams fan at the same price.

There is a litany of reasons as to why but it is not going to change anything in the short term.

Especially those who just want to bitch about the situation instead of making the same effort as other fans are making.

GO RAMS!!!

when we tried play action it seemed like stafford was getting collapsed on.

Agreed. But to the extent you can, you get his successor and firmly plant his ass on the bench to watch and learn next year.
Yeah that’s true, although something tells me when Stafford leaves, it will be the sign of a true rebuild and McVay, Kupp, and Donald will be gone too.

Rams allow shitty Steeler Canada offense, who fans wanted fired, to dominate 2nd half

Defense can't tackle, even Donald misses vs Pickett

Defense can't cover, everyone getting burned in 2nd half

Refs bullshit spot when Pickett slips and doesn't make it

Steelers players running their mouths all game, Rams got bullied by a team they should've beaten

The kicker had the yips in that playoff, now he fucking has it again

Rams kept giving the Steelers life by missing opps

Fucking 40whiners clown the Steelers, so then they clown the Rams

LT AJ gets beaten like a rented mule, he's not the answer

McVay now 0-2 vs Tomlin. He just cannot beat him or Rat Boy to save his life!

Steelers fans turn Sofi into Heinz Field, I'm fucking sick of hearing that every team travels well

Announcers always byas vs Rams

FUCK THIS SHITTY GAME
Isn't it interesting how McVay shits the bed against coaches he "respects"? Rat face, Tomlin, Billy B. All three have his number.

Exactly.

Also.
The Steelers are a very popular team.
They have a ton of fans all over.
Much like the Cowboys.

The Steelers haven’t played in LA in almost 30 years.
Of course, they’re going to show up today.
Don't try bro, if they don't live here they don't get it.

Wait a second. You responded to my vent initially, doing exactly what it’s meant for. Now you are literally doing what you were initially responding me about about venting about other fans. How ironic is that?

Steelers are not that good. They are a marginal playoff team at best. But they are better than we are. This game was not an upset. The better team won. We are not a playoff caliber team. That is my honest, maybe brutal, assessment.

We have ten games left. The way I see it, 5 games we will be facing teams that are clearly better. There is no debate there. But the NFL being what it is, any given Sunday, there is a chance we win one of those. The way I see it, that gives us 8 losses.

5 games against marginal or worse caliber teams. But today showed we can lose those games just as much as we can win. So I think we win 3 of those 5. That would put us at 7-10. Which coincidentally is what I thought we'd be two months ago.

Today's game answered the questions I had. Are we good enough to beat the mid level teams? Maybe we are but we're also bad enough to lose to them.

What I will not be looking for is not whether or not we can turn it around and make a playoff push. I don't see it happening. What I want to see is improvement from the first and second year guys.

Reading between the lines in Demoff's letter, it sure looked like he was trying to warn us not to have high expectations. A lot of pundits warned us too.

yeah we just are not really improving from week to week... inconsistency is the only consistent thing.

However our roster.. especially on defense is really not great.

they did okay... until the 4th Quater.

Then they pissed it down their leg.

The defense has a bunch of no named players on it.. so can expect they will suck sometimes.

The offense has more talent.... need to score more than 17

that being said it was a team loss... all 3 phases did their part.
