It was a solid win on Sunday, in what felt like a big stage/playoff environment. That opening drive was great. It's like I could feel, on that drive, the offense's frustration with scoring only 7 points the week before. Getting Sammy Watkins involved can really unlock the offense's potential. We put up 26 legit points (no defensive or special teams touchdowns, no short fields via turnovers), but could've had some more if we hadn't settled for field goals.


Yes, the Saints were without some key defensive players so we took advantage of that. But, of course, we were without our best, most productive wide receiver.

It is also worth noting that the Rams defense deserves a lot of credit in this latest win. Take away that freakish (although I admit this isn't an isolated incident this season) Kamara long TD run in the first quarter, and the Rams held the high powered Saints offense to 272 total yards.

They played well also against the Vikings early in the game. Missed out on a few opportunities on Keenum. Due to the huge edge the Vikings had on time of possession, the defense was on the field too long.

Indeed these games have a playoff atmospheric element to them. The game against the eagles in a couple of weeks shouldn't be any different. But there is business to be had in Arizona first.

Solid win today. We did enough to win this one. It was somewhat dominant in that we beat the spread by 9 points. Still, we're depending on Greg the Leg a little too much.

The Rams Defense after shutting out the Cardinals in the friendly home confines of London England followed up with 6 sacks at Glendale Arizona to complete the season sweep. The Rams will now face the Eagles who are coming off a loss in the NFL moonlight match up with the Seahawks. IMHO I think the Rams are very capable of beating the Eagles or at the very minimum give them one helluva game. Looking forward to this.

After watching the Eagles against the Seahawks, it is possible the Eagles are overrated?? I actually think the Rams will beat the Eagles. I had more fear in the Saint game than this one.

I don't know. Sunday night's game was a classic case of one shorthanded team playing their heart's out because their season was nearly on the line versus another that has been coasting a little and can afford to drop a game or two.


Sunday's Rams/Eagles matchup will be real good, probably a very close game. I'm pretty familiar with the Eagles offense, but not so much their defense. I'm sure they are good, but are they in the Vikings' class? That was a defense that we couldn't do much against.

A couple of days ago there was speculation that the game could be moved to Anaheim. The Rams did hold a practice indoors on Wednesday. As of right now the game will go on as scheduled at the Coliseum.

The Eagles have THE #1 run defense in the entire league and they are VERY good at putting pressure on QB's.
