Just logged in to read the win thread and find no one cares the Rams won. WTF?

4:30 PM Eastern on FOX

How lucky we are to have a lot of these players McSnead finds to bring in. Puka is just so fun to watch and his energy is infectious.

Easy trip for me....

WHOSE in?

Callahan and Dumbell, I mean Daboll already canned.
Who will join them?

Petey boy sure to retire or get shit canned
Cant see the Jets keeping Aaron Glenn, the team has totally quit on him
Stefansky? McDaniel? Who's gonna get axed next?

He was a difference maker today and adds another weapon for Stafford in the post season. I hope we find a way to keep him at least one more year.

RAMS WIN, RAMS WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MATTHEW STAFFORD WITH FOUR TOUCHDOWNS, PUKA WITH TEN CATCHES AND A BADASS TOUCHDOWN, HIGBEAST WITH ALMOST A HUNDRED AND A TOUCHDOWN, AND EVEN PARKINSON GOT TWO TOUCHDOWNS!

NOW LET'S KICK ASS IN THE PLAYOFFS! DOESN'T MATTER WHO WE PLAY; IF WE PLAY OUR GAME, WE WIN. PERIOD.

How would yall feel about Todd Bowles as a DC? To me he’s the embodiment of “tremendous coordinator/below average head coach”. And the chances of him getting a third shot at a head coaching job seem slim. He’s someone that could be in the job for several years. Something to consider if we lose Shula.

Why not give Hunter one game this season. He is inactive again. Come on McVay.

After Jackson Smith-Njigba’s performance tonight against the San Francisco 49ers, Rams’ receiver Puka Nacua has to be doing the math. Nacua is the definition of Team player, of course and will be working with his teammates to achieve a victory against the Arizona Cardinals, and help secure the #5 seed in the NFC playoffs. A victory tomorrow would bring the Rams to 12-5, tied with the 49ers, but the Rams, of course, would finish ahead in the tie-breaking formula.

But on a personal level, Nacua has had An amazing season. Many pundits and football experts believe Nacua is worthy of Offensive Player of the year. With Just 155 yards Sunday, Puka will surpass Smith-Njigba for the NFL receiving yards title. (Edit: And he will have achieved the feat playing ONE LESS GAME)


The question, with Playoffs looming, is: will Coach Sean McVay allow Nacua to play enough to achieve the goal?

Secondly, a very interesting dynamic is shaping up regarding another NFL Wide Receiving title at stake for the 2025 season: Most receptions. Currently Nacua is tied with Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride with 119 receptions. The only other player close is Cincinnati Bengal receiver Jamar Chase. As Chase and the Bengals will be playing their game against the Browns in the early window, Both McBride and Nacua will know how many catches they will need to surpass Chase. (Assuming he has at least 3 catches Sunday)

They true drama will be, how many catches from drive-to-drive will they need to keep up with each other! Though for the Cardinals at 3-13, McBrides pursuit may be one of the team’s few inspirations in an otherwise lost season. Another underlying goal for the Cardinals may be to play the part of spoiler, affecting the playoff seedings in the NFC.



Lastly, in looking at the third leg to the NFL Receivers Triple Crown this is the most interesting thing that occurred to me: Imagine as we all celebrated mid-season, when our quarterback Matthew Stafford was lighting the World on fire delivering all those red-zone touchdowns to Devonte Adam’s, if he had looked Nacua’s way JUST TWICE.



Adam’s would be sitting idle with a still-respectable 12 touchdowns, Puka Nacua would have 11 touchdowns with one game to go. (And the accompanying 2 catches, and let’s say 20 yards for the sake of arguement.)

Never mind a couple of touchdowns that were called back, such as the one Monday Night against Atlanta, and someone will have to remind me- there was at least another one a few weeks ago.

The Triple Crown chatter going into this final preseason game would be a Huge story line. And might I add one that would ADD to the goal of winning the final game not distract from it. My opinion. And probably add to the case for Matthew Stafford MVP, as well.

Just some rantings from this lunatic. I’d be curious to hear what you all think about the Triple Crown that will never be, in this incredible year from Puka Nacua. I think he could easily win two of the three legs, though.

Heck just win that Lombardi, and all will be good with me.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but the fix is definingly in with Vegas controlling the outcome of these games. These NFL officials either just are not good enough or they are trying to affect the outcome of these games. Rodger Goodell is a shit head, and the NFL is putting out a flawed product.

As a dedicated fan of US doctrine, warfare, and general ass kickery on the world stage, I have some favored youtube streamers I like to watch. But I have to say this dude is the best. If you like tanks and firepower crack a cold one and enjoy:

Before this season, all we saw the last few years was how good Stafford was and how much he has carried the Rams. This year he has the best season of his career and I’ve seen people saying that Drake Maye would win more games on this team. And that he was actually not good in the Super Bowl win vs the Bengals.

It feels like the goalposts have shifted now that he’s comfortably in HOF territory. Idk if it’s because fans prefer an underdog story rather than “he’s finally made it” story. But it just seems like a big shift against him in the last few weeks.

For new years I made this pork with sauerkraut. I have quite a bit of shredded pork left and I think it'll make some awesome tacos with like a diced onion/cliantro/pinapple type topping. . . I am open to ideas if anyone has any. . .

What are you all making to close out the season and head into the playoffs?

Mcvay has confirmed the starters will play on Sunday regardless if their seeding is already determined. So with all the Poltergeist-type of events that have happened this year to screw this team, he invites possible injury with a 37 year old QB with back issues and a WR with a LB's approach to hitting, who gets hurt a lot. I understand they need to not only win but do so convincingly, but to take that risk in this bizarro season is scary.

Sorry for the lame rap lyric title. Just had to get these thoughts on this team:

Fuck the Seahags fans, fuck the 69er fans, and fuck any haters. We're in the playoffs, we're 0-0, and when we get players back healthy, there's not a team in the world that can keep up with us.

Super Bowl. Period. And if we don't get it here and now, we've got an excellent shot next year.

The 11-5 Rams once sitting in the pole position in the playoff hunt are now suddenly in critical condition entering the NFL playoffs like lambs to the slaughter. How did they get there and can they have a miraculously recovery and save their season?

Rams began the season 2-0 and then blew a 19-7 halftime lead in Philadelphia to lose to the Eagles 33-26 on a blocked FG attempt in the closing seconds.

After an impressive win over the undefeated Colts the Rams came out flat to begin the game vs the Niners trailing 17-7 at halftime. A furious Rams comeback that was hampered by a huge Kyren Williams fumble and more FG issues tied the game in regulation but a failed 4th and 1 in FG range to tie the game without any confidence in their kicker led to a 3 point loss at home.

Rams went on a tear with six straight wins and took control of the division heading into a road game against Carolina who had looked like a junior varsity team just one week earlier vs the Niners. Rams overcame an early Stafford pick six and took the lead 21-17 but their defense gave up big plays and with the Rams in FG position late in the game Stafford was sacked and fumbled game over.

After two offensively impressive wins where the defense looked very vulnerable the Rams raced to a commanding 16 point lead over Seattle with 8 minutes remaining only to surrender a TD on another special teams blunder and a subsequent drive to force overtime. Rams opened the overtime with a touchdown but their defense surrendered a touchdown and 2 point conversion to lose the game 38-37.

With hopes of a division title out of reach this Rams failed to show up in Atlanta and the Falcons survived a Rams rally by controlling the ball and driving for a game winning FG to send the Rams to a second consecutive defeat.


Every game the Rams lost they had an opportunity to win in the final possession but they either came up short on offense, defense and special teams in the most critical times in the game.

I can’t remember a string of more excruciating losses in one season in my 60+ years of being a Rams fan.

Can they turn it around? The Rams have shown the ability to beat ANYONE in the NFL but they have also shown their ability to beat themselves with critical breakdowns in all three phases of the game. The Atlanta game was clearly the Rams worst effort all season. Injuries on the offensive line were a huge factor but if you didn’t know the teams records watching that game you would swear that the 7 win Falcons were the better team. They showed more poise, more speed, more discipline and more effort. Rams looked like they slept in for the entire first half.

I still believe that this Rams team if completely healthy ( Dotson, Lake, Adams, Jackson, Corum can beat any team any where in the playoffs but they have to put together their best football from here through the Super Bowl because while they have proven that they can beat any team capable of beating anyone this team still has flaws that could be their undoing.

Rams special teams had an improved showing but one would have to wonder why the Rams didn’t make an offseason move and try to improve this facet because Chase Blackburn’s special teams had already cost the Rams 3 games ( Philadelphia, SF and Seattle) by the time he was fired.

Rams didn’t address any needs other than maybe a backup CB at the trading deadline despite having plenty of draft capital in what could be both Matthew Stafford’s finest and final season in the NFL. Seahawks were buyers and their acquisition of Shaheed for a 4th and 5th round picks gave them a third WR to stretch the field and he was dynamic on returns of punts and kickoffs. Shaheed’s punt return TD against the Rams was a GAME CHANGER. Les Snead went from F them picks to sitting on his hands when his team was on the cusp with an aging QB playing his best football.

I’m glad McVay finally dumped the special teams coordinator. I wish that Les Sneed had been more aggressive at the trading deadline!

I still believe in this Rams team. I can’t remember a season where there was a mixture of dominance and excruciating failure's. This past two weeks have rocked this team’s playoff chances and their confidence. Hopefully they will respond properly. I believe that the Rams 2025 team will go down as either the most impressive comeback or the most disappointing failure in Rams history. Got to win out from here on or there will be a lot of soul searching for the Rams organization going forward.

SUPERBOWL OR BUST! GO RAMS!

What are you all making today?

I kept seeing this recipe for Pork and Sauerkraut in the slow cooker.

So that's been in the cooker since this morning.

Also trying this dessert that is simply bananas, eggs, yogurt, and blueberries then bake.
