Well there we go, what a fantastic win, everyone thought it was going to be a shoot out and it was, bu what did you all lear from this historic win? Here's my points:

1. Our O can slug it out with the best of them, but I still think that our Red Zone attack needs improvement - I know we scored 54, but we missed a couple of TDs.

2. Donald and our D - what a beast of a game Donald had, also I must send appreciation for Ebukam and Peters.

3. McVay and his time management at the end?!?! WTF?!?! Why on earth didn't we waste more time at the end???

4. Our TEs are coming into their own at the right time, it's given us another angle to our attack - it doesn't matter who you mark, we can scheme someone open.

5. Gurley - very quiet in this game, I hope he'd not dinged up :-/

This team does not quit ... ever

Gave the league the game plan to beat the chiefs .. outscore them.. that’s an offense and half

Goff is unflappable .. stack 8 in the box and dare goff to beat you is going to be a thing of the past because that’s what they did and failed

This D steps up when it’s needed game balls to Donald Samson and peters (he played well today )

Goff is one tough cookie, took the big hits and still came out and balled it! Ebukam had his best game to date, he's been 'almost there' a few times but today he nailed it. Peters knew what he had to do and did it well.

I forgot to mention my favourite bit of the game was when Havenstein flattened one of the KC defenders - was pure pancake joy

I thought Gurley might've been dinged up too, but that last big run he trucked a defender so I think he's good to go. No worries :)
I do think he was taken out early in the game though to "walk it off" after that near horse-collar tackle. So glad we have Brown to fill in capably.

i just rewatched the game.

i learned the Rams WR’s
and DLineman got held at least 10 times uncalled. it’s unbelievable.

it’s like watching a
fake game.

It'll be nice to get the bye so that our players can catch their breath

Bad game management by McVay. Our coach still gets pass happy to much. Hope Gurley is ok. Red Zone offense needs to be better

I learned that the standards by which we judge defensive performance s probably outdated. Like it or not, great defenses do not have the regulations (anymore) behind them to slow down the offenses, by NFL design. They want a pin ball game, with all the lights, bells, and whistles. We saw talented offenses with key plays by defensive Super stars. Key stops are what defense seems to be now.

.

that the rams have been involved in perhaps the best prime time games ever.

2000 season, mnf, vs the bucs. who can forget that game.

2018 season, tnf, vs the vikings. jared "perfect" goff.

2018 season, mnf, vs the chiefs. how much drama and big plays can be packed into one game?
