I really wish we had added another receiver in the second round instead of Klare. With Puka being injured it's just Adams and a bunch of OK tight ends. Stafford had nowhere to go way too many times.

Also wish we had a real returner because Smith is not the guy.

Having said all that, the refs killed us in this one. Hope we come back next week healthier, pissed off and ready for the Eagles.
 
Took your advice and researched it. 11 reception for 231 yds in 14 games, biggest game was sea with a record of a whopping 3 receptions... yea...really took our 13 personnel to the next level.
We didn't start running 13 personnel until game 7.

He averaged 21 yards per catch in 13 personnel - he is our deep threat in that formation. It's way better with him in it.

In the games he missed with also ran 13 personnel less.
 
Dear karma gods, are we now done paying for the non-PI call from the 2018 NFC championship game?

While that call cost us the game, you can't ignore Stafford's pick-6 and other mistakes like Avila's drive-killing penalty in the first half.

We didn't have a good answer for their increased pressure in the 2nd half.

But hey, what a drive to re-take the lead in the 4th. Awesome to see Mumpfield contribute in a big way. I was happy we at least got to take an end zone shot on the last play. Nice to see Higbee back helping out too. I didn't think Davante would have another 100-yard game but he did.

I hope Watson and Ferguson will be ready next week.

Let's get the Eagles!
 
And the Shitter Award nominations for tonight's game go to:

:crap: Matthew Stafford for throwing the pick six in a moment where punting the ball away may have been the difference. He continues to turn the ball over, which we really don't fucking need right now. That is, after all, the reason why teams don't want to play young QBs...

:crap: Special teams for consistently strapping the offense down with garbage field position while giving Denver good field position. Also Smith decision making which exacerbates shit.

:crap: Forbes for being every bit as bad as we remember him being last season when he let us down. The more things change...

:crap: And tonight's referee and merry band of dipshits who have just called one of the worst and one-sided games I can recall. Which is saying a lot with this particular ref.
 
Just like many losses last year, if just one of many plays - just one - they win. Terrible PI call when the Ram made a great int with a minute to go; Stafford doesn’t see Ferguson for a wide open TD on the first possession; Watson drops easy pick on Denver’s first possession; horrible play by Forbes on the punt in the third Q where he ran out of bounds forever - Denver started on their 48 instead of their 8; horrible special teams tackling and coverage on the other punt - Denver had TD drives of 52 and 36 yards due to Sp Teams; Stafford’s pick six, just a horrible decision; can’t defend a two point play AGAIN - saw this vs Seattle last year. They also lost Watson and Ferguson on top of not having Garrett and Puka, had 13 penalties (don’t want to start of the refs), but were still one play at the end from winning. They don’t get a consistent pass rush either; that 37 yard gain late by Denver on 2cd and 20, just a killer. The only positive I see is it’s early and a loss to an AFC team, and Seattle lost today as well. With Philly and Buff next we could be looking at 1-4.

If they had actually hit on the pick of Klare it would be fine. Because he does have that skill set to line up in the slot and contribute right away to the chain moving.

Unfortunately, he either fell behind mentally, i.e. isn't ready yet. Or he's not good enough. Or the Rams are just fucking stupid and guilty of playing lesser players over him in a moment where he might be able to give their old QB have another legit pass game safety blanket who can sit down in a zone or ditch a LB or Safety underneath.
 
It's simple. They let it get close on the road and left this game in the wet, weak and stinky hands of Bill Beenabitch

tough loss that's for sure...i'm not happy...

there needs to be some sort of red flag rule that can be thrown on a shitty call from a biased ref...

rams are by far the better team, and we're gonna get better...

i'll have a little trouble getting over this one, but blue skys are on the horizon, because these games are going to become not even close when we are at full strength...

chin up fellow rams fans... the future is bright...

it's a very long season, and mcvay will do everything in his power to make sure we're peaking at just the right time...

happy to be a ram fan, but disapointed tonight...

go rams

It is a damn shame that nothing can be done about these terrible NFL officials. I am really starting to believe the games are fixed and all this gambling is having an effect on the outcome of the games. The calls and non-calls in this game were completely one sided. NFL putting out a flawed product, games looking like they are being fixed by the refs.
