Gorgoroth

Sean Payton has stepped away from coaching.

Much easier to do if we can run the ball. I said a few weeks ago that Beckham will tear a game apart in the play offs, has been good in both games, bs Cardinals would have had over 100yrds if not for penalties. I hope you does it this week.

Stafford is his own worst enemy. When he stuffs up, it’s always huge. He tries to hold onto the ball too long at times and not throw it away. Does poor interceptions but later with thread the needle, stand there and get hit as he makes the throw (last throw to Kupp the perfect example). But I think McVay is also Staffords worst enemy. The great thing vs the Buccs was we ran the ball 25 times for sod allyards, quite a few loss of yards plays, but the fact McVay kept calling them meant the Buccs had to stay up at the line meaning less in their secondary so his throws were easier. If we can get some sort of run game going bs the niners front that means Stafford has time to make his throws. Our okay calling on both sides of the ball with be interesting.

It’s the old don’t get beaten by what you know, I would have only rushed 2, 3max.(they ain’t running it!) Double Hill, double Kelce and see if Pringle or others beat you. Much easier said than done tho.

I must admit Macca, I was surprised at the bills D. They have been amazing all year. Yet vs Chiefs they missed lots of tackles, didn’t contain mAhomes at all, the play across the middle to Hill is hard cos of his speed. In saying that, the D on the last 13 seconds was super poor, give up some yards but they couldn’t give up that amount in so little time. Why the Buccs blitzed everyone vs Stafford still baffles me, yes, Suh got to Stafford, but not until he had unloaded to Kupp. I thought the Rams D was great all game, the Buccs got the ball back repeatedly inside our side of the field late and the D were under the pump. Other than our fumbles, our offence played well, we still ran the ball even with little yards but it made the Buccs stay focused on both run game and pass game.

I’m going to have to stick and move like Ali to avoid the scores next Monday.

Is this the greatest play off weekend ever?

This game is fun. Allen’s legs are elite then that throw on 4th &16 was crazy

Agree their D is very good, if we can establish the passing game early then make them drop more back that negates Bosa somewhat.

Rams need to commit 100% to stopping the run. Make Jimmy beat us. If their run game gets going it’s going to be hard. Contain and stop the run. Let the secondary do their job. Whit and Rapp hopefully back next week.

Thoughts on the game (from a biased Rams eye) Oline, massive! Buccs Dline is great, we protected Stafford all game. Even got more out of the running game than I expected. Stafford was great, threw very well and stepped up to make big plays. All receivers played well, Kupp fumbles, but won the game on those last two plays. RB’s Akers was good be that Dline, the first fumble hurt but landing on your head prob hurt more, that last one tho is inexcusable. No idea why McVay didn’t use Michel more, bigger back might have helped and we did get some good runs bouncing it out so surprised there wasn’t more of those calls. Dline was very good all game, had Brady under pressure all game. Secondary was solid, Ramsey got sliced once badly but be Brady and Buccs that will happen. Special teams other than the missed FG was very good. Hekker punted well, we chased the punts down well, Powell returned very good. Over all, I was confident coming in. Our mistakes nearly cost us, but we should take solace in the fact that if we clean those up this game is different.

Kupp is next level. Yes he fumbled today but he also saved our [censored]. Offence made some bad fumbles, Akers has to cover that ball in the last. Gay was short from 47, commentators said he hurt himself pre game, clean up those fumbles and I’m not shaking and about to vomit.

We have beaten ourselves. It’s been all mistakes on offence. And easy mistakes to fix.

Akers running in the middle with only one hand on the ball. Amateur hour. About to choke hard. This game should have been sealed at the half.

Rams started very well, the fumble by Akers at the 1yrd line before the half could have nigh on sealed the game. We start with the ball. Long drives keeping Brady off the field is key.

Huge stand call in the 3rd for the titans. I thought they would overturn it. Gives Titans a chance when the Bengals should be more than 7 up.

All Buccs, no Rams…. All wrong! 😂😁

My boys played well. Run game was established early and went very well. D was exceptional, especially at the LoS. Secondary wasn’t really pushed at all which I sure Brady will, but I reckon my boys can really get to Brady and force him to throw quickly or under pressure.

Been saying to mates for ages, Cowboys are like Carlton, entitled overrated crud. Add McCarthy who I still reckon is a poor coach who was lucky to have Rodgers and co at GB. Andthen you hear Prescott say “All credit to them” when asked about the fans throwing things at the refs. Refs didn’t lose you the game, you did. You ran too far, didn’t know the rules and botched it yourselves, oh the bazillion yards of penalties and missing wide open receivers also was a factor. What a nonce, I hope the league fine him a massive amount.

The Chiefs D is the Key, if they can get on top of KC defence early and put up points and make Mahomes and the O chase them, then they are a big chance. Chiefs O has been much better of late, but like the pats of old, the O Usually starts with good field position or with a maintained lead they can try and build on.

Pre season they were my AFC choice to make the SB. I must admit they have had a stuttering year, but looking very very good.

Rams lose their defensive play caller for the year, Rapp also under concussion protocol. Their solution? A guy 23 months retired… Welcome back Eric Weddle. What a strange decision.

Prob cos he saved our butts vs the Ravens. Yeah we try and force it to OBJ occasionally, tbh I’d be looking more to Higbee in those situations. His matchup with Kupp and OBJ taken the best 3 usually is most favourable.
