Falsons undefeated season: sayonera

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:06:00 PM
Lance "Jimmy" Kendrix must step up

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:06:01 PM
the problem with Quick is that so far he has been useless

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:06:07 PM
He has flashed some big play ability. It'll be interesting to watch his progression. Today could be an opportunity for him.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:07:00 PM
Too many ifs. Why did the season start so promising, and now it's fading into

by Rmejme 11/11/2012 9:07:06 PM
The season got tougher for the Rams when they started playing better teams.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:07:21 PM
mercury Morris and crew can pop the cork, Spags and the Saints knocked ATL from the ranks of unbeatens!

The problem with Quick is he isn't any good.

by Another Top 5 Pick 11/11/2012 9:07:29 PM
He has some physical ability. He didn't develop at the same pace as Givens, obviously. That isn't unusual. A.J. Jenkins hasn't played and Justin Blackmon is done the depth chart, too.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:08:28 PM
Maybe this is the game that the "lights go on" for Quick!

by ScottyD 11/11/2012 9:08:29 PM
Is San Francisco's Coach Harbaugh regarded around the league as as big a jerk as I think he is?

by Craig 11/11/2012 9:08:33 PM
He is no diplomat, that is for sure.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:08:41 PM
Our killer Ol of Saffold III, Smith, Turner, Dahl and Barksdale will get the job done

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:08:44 PM
today is quicks chance

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:08:45 PM
Jim Harbaugh would approve early defensive holding call against Seahawks CB Brandon Browner.

Actually, not true on Quick

by Trey 11/11/2012 9:10:08 PM
If Quick plays with Givens out- he has an opportunity here. But he will have to take advantage of it. Easier said than done of course. I detest SF but they are anything but slouches.

by DaveM 11/11/2012 9:10:13 PM
The game plan is to run Jax and Richardson behind Barksdale and Dahl

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:10:19 PM
DX another HUGE game for San Diego. Could really use him

by Matt 11/11/2012 9:10:20 PM
The running game will be very limited for the Rams today. Sam Bradford must step up and make some plays

by nrw89f 11/11/2012 9:10:24 PM
hope Danny is not coming back too soon and can still take a hit. Surely he won't be returning punts.

by ScottyD 11/11/2012 9:10:25 PM
who will be returning kickoffs and punts today- Pead?

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:11:36 PM
Pead seems the obvious choice for kickoffs. Fans won't be happy if Amendola regains his punt return role.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:12:11 PM
The Rams need to do what the Bills are doing today: ESTABLISH A GROUND GAME!!!!

by Dan in WNY 11/11/2012 9:12:13 PM
not only were JJ and CG starters- but they also returned kicks

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:12:16 PM
What was the Rams record with DX here? He's unreliable and it's BS my freind!!!

by Trey 11/11/2012 9:13:05 PM
Alexander was a nice weapon when healthy. It is a shame he has been able to play only in short stretches at the NFL level.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:13:53 PM
If DA returns punts he should just fair catch everything

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:13:54 PM
we nned to plauy a near-flawless game- minimal penalties, no turnovers

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:13:58 PM
Rats. Blocked out on Sunday Ticket. Not sure I will be able to see it.

by DaveM 11/11/2012 9:14:03 PM
Finnegan used to return punts-correct?

by ScottyD 11/11/2012 9:14:46 PM
Yes, but only six in his career in parts of two seasons.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:14:58 PM
Fitz hands the victory to NE.

by Another Top 5 Pick 11/11/2012 9:15:00 PM
Pettis could return p
unts

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:15:02 PM
True enough. He may finally understand the whole fair catch thing.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:15:16 PM
Pettis obvious choice for punts

by Coach Spagnola 11/11/2012 9:15:17 PM
As long has he doesn't try to return punts he catches with defenders within arm's reach.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:15:48 PM
If Rams RB's can get 35+ touches, the game gets very interesting. With 3.5 & 7.4 avg yds/carry, this is an unlit stick of TNT.

by Dan in WNY 11/11/2012 9:15:51 PM
The Rams seem to have the roles and responsibilities of their defense of coaches defined well enough that it seems to be working. But I've never really heard it clearly articulated what each of them is doing (Williams, McGinnis, Cecil, etc.). Who sets the defensive game plan? Who calls the defensive sets on each play?

by Craig 11/11/2012 9:16:08 PM
Williams is not involved. McGinnis is essentially the defensive coordinator in his absence, although Fisher is heavily involved in game-planning.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:17:04 PM
Jeff- what did you take away from Mizzou yesterday?

by goose 11/11/2012 9:17:05 PM
Salvaged a bit of respect there. And it was nice for Franklin to have a big game. Tennessee is bad and headed toward a coaching search, but every SEC road victory is huge for a program like Mizzou.

by Jeff Gordon 11/11/2012 9:17:55 PM
Pettis never fumbled though as I recall-he was crazy!!

by ScottyD 11/11/2012 9:17:57 PM
Need to see my favorite rams player Chris long step up today also our 1st round pick brockers be disruptive and Kendall Langford

by Mo 11/11/2012 9:18:01 PM
Also Steven Jackson is about due for a breakout statement game
