A win in Philly and this game is in the rearview. At least it was an AFC game.

If we are 2-3 after 5 we're fine. If we are 1-4 we're in a little trouble but still capable of winning it all with proper Garrett and Nacua.
Ref talk is, always has been, and always will be loser talk.
The Rams didn't lose because of a bad call, no matter how egregious it was. Or even a series of bad calls.
The Rams lost, mostly, because Stafford missed three wide open men, two of which were guaranteed touchdowns and threw an absolutely retarded pick six.
The other reasons they lost include McVay's continued inability to finish drives and ongoing special teams travesties.
Bad calls happen all the time, every game. Your job is to ensure there can be no doubt.
Further, this team is going down the exact path that every NFL "SUPER TEAM" has gone down. That being monumental disappointment. Nothing I've seen from this team tells me they have the ability, let alone grit, to win a Super Bowl this year.

I suspect he looked really good in training camp returning punts vs the Rams' coverage unit.
Huge stretch of winnable games after week 5. 2-3 could easily be 8-3 based on the schedule. But the margin of error will get smaller and smaller.
Despite everything they did wrong in the second half and the points they left on the table in the first-, they leave with a W if that play is officiated correctly.
Mind-numbingly frustrating.

This says it all for me...
It ain't always going to be sunshine and roses. A slow start may be JUST what this teams needs for the long haul.
When its all said and done SF and Denver are probably 2 of the top teams in the league. Our schedule is no joke but I believe at the end we are gonna be there where we all thought we would.
Beat Philly!

I think officiating is as legit a topic as any other that affects the outcome.
That’s highly likely. I hold my breath every time he catches a punt. He’s looks scared as hell and a good return by him is 5-10 yards. I just don’t see any upside in Smith and can’t understand why he was considered so valuable that he got to bypass playing in the preseason. McVay has a penchant for holding on to certain players he likes but they simply aren’t performing.I suspect he looked really good in training camp returning punts vs the Rams' coverage unit.
Case in point is Tu Tu Atwell. Rams let him walk in free agency and then traded for him only to make him inactive for2 of 3 of their games.
They again couldn't put a team away that they had on the ropes. That is a legit criticism of McVay. Even last week they let the Giants hang around for over a quarter more than they should have.
Next week the Eagles are another team that won't quit if the Rams can get a lead on them. They need to stop this shit.
Whatever happened to that stat of never losing a halftime lead.
Absent absolute proof of corruption bitching about refs "making my team lose" is the lowest form of sports discussion. There were many undeniable moments where the Rams blew their own heads off in that game, all of which affected the outcome far more than bad refs.
We all know the state of officiating in the NFL is abysmal. Players and fans can either whine about it, or go out and make sure the refs can't fuck them. The Rams allowed the refs to fuck them.
Another thing Stafford gotta stop
The qb runs. He gonna get hurt.

LOL, I get that he was a catcher but for a guy who has played baseball and is a professional athlete, the fact the man can't slide mystifies me to no end.
They were stacking the box, though, so can see why he chose pass.
Hey! Y'all STFU!
The all whites were AWESOME!

If a PI call is going to change the game and strip the winner of a win. It must be an obvious penalty or don't toss the damn flag. That being said the Rams need to put teams away so a bad call won't hurt so bad.
I actually have one of these bought for me as a gift in 1990.
Too bad such a bad call changes so many potential outcomes.
