I did predict that the game was going to be close! In fact, the game was so close that nobody ended up winning it.Shortly before the game started it was announced that the rookies Chris Givens and Janoris Jenkins were made inactive becase they had violated the team rules. Which rule or rules were broken is still unclear. However, fans are supportive of head coach Jeff Fisher for disciplining the players and not letting anything slide.

Rams still coming to grips with rare tie
Danny Amendola's first game in a month for the St. Louis Rams was a huge success. And that's without the 142 yards on a pair of big plays that were nullified by penalty.

Easy to say, hard to swallow...
