Rams Run Over Chiefs 14-10

For the second week in a row, the Rams offense got off to a hot start.  But, instead of one long pass, the Rams extended their hot start into two touchdown drives to jump out to a 14-0 lead and the Rams were able to hold on behind their defense and just enough offense to take the game and the Governor’s Cup. The Rams started off the game with a 14 play drive after the opening...

Rams Head to Kansas City to Take on the Chiefs in Preseason Game Three

A Rams team that’s trying to turn the corner in 2011 can look across the sidelines at its next preseason opponent for inspiration. The Chiefs produced one of the NFL’s biggest turnarounds last season, rising up from a dreadful 4-12 campaign in head coach Todd Haley’s 2009 debut to record 10 wins and a surprise AFC West title. The Rams also displayed dramatic improvement...

Rams Jokes Debunked

When your team is doing well and things are on the upswing, it’s a good time to poke a little fun at yourself.  Enjoy! The Saint Louis Rams front office stated in a press conference today that none of their starting linebackers would be able to play in this Friday’s game against the Chiefs. Fortunately, that’s never prevented them from taking the field before. -       If...

Tuesday Evening Quarterback: Preseason Week 2

This year, I’m going to be taking a second look at the Rams game on Tuesday evening and recording my thoughts.  Today I’m watching the Rams take on the Titans in week 2 of the preseason.  All the fun is after the jump. - The Rams long touchdown pass on the first play of the game came out of the 2 tight end/ 2 wide receiver/ 1 running back set.  We will be seeing this formation...

With the cutdown from 90 to 80 players coming in a week, there is no better time than the present to look at the Rams roster and who will make the team, first we will start with the easiest position to call: quarterback. Starter: Sam Bradford - Sam Bradford lived up to Rams fans hopes last season and with a new down-field friendly offense and a few more weapons, Bradford should...

Steven Jackson Could Become A Free Agent After This Year

When perusing the RotoWorld contracts page for the Rams (which is an incredible resource by the way) I found an interesting nugget in Steven Jackson’s contract that could make him a free agent after the season. he must average 1,200 yards rushing and 400 yards receiving over the first four years to void the final two seasons on his contract. Steven Jackson’s two voidable...

Rams Might Not Be The Only Team Shopping For Corners

With the long term injury to Rams 2nd year nickel corner Jerome Murphy and the rest of the corners each having black marks on their respective health records, the Rams will be scouring the waiver wire for any corner back help, but they will not be the only team looking.  As ESPN so eloquently alerted everyone in the world today, the Giants are in corner back situation is in “...

Rams Cut Long Snapper Chris Massey

So, you’re Chris Massey, you’ve been the Rams’ long snapper for nine years, and you’ve done a heck of a job at it, maybe a handful of bad snaps, out of hundreds of opportunities, the whole time you’ve played. This morning, you’ve got to be wondering why the blue hell the Rams cut you. I know I am. Chemistry in sports, period, is a fickle thing...

Rams Rally To Beat Titans 17-16

The Rams got their second preseason game off on the right foot with a 83-yard long touchdown pass from Sam Bradford to Brandon Gibson on the first play of the game.  From there, the first team offense and defense both went downhill.  The Rams gave up over 200 yards rushing in the whole game and got pushed around on both sides of the ball.  However, the Rams rallied down 2 points...

Rams Host Titans in Game Two of the Preseason

With their best player still absent from training camp, the Titans make a trip to the Edward Jones Dome on Saturday to take on the Rams in the second preseason game of the 2011 campaign for both teams.

Terrelle Pryor Suspension Sets Dangerous Precedent

This is not a Rams-specific post, but more of the NFL in general.  The Rams would seemingly have no interest in drafting Terrelle Pryor in the NFL Supplemental Draft on Monday as they don’t have need for a developmental quarterback.  They have Sam Bradford as their starter and Thaddeus Lewis is a much better quarterback in the 3rd QB role right now. In the midst of a tattoos...

Mark Clayton Working Out With Patriots Friday

While the Rams are playing hard to get with free agent wide receiver, saying all the right things, but never quite going all the way, Clayton is going to see if he can get some action somewhere else with a visit and workout planned with the New England Patriots on Friday. I’m not sure what to make of this.  Clayton has said in the past how much he loves St. Louis and the Rams...

Rams 2011 Win/Loss Prediction

(Week #) 1: Eagles vs Rams  – L, the Eagles are the team to beat this year.  Not sure we’ll be up to the task.  Usually takes SJ a couple games to get warmed up. 2: Rams vs Giants – W, I’m looking for an upset.  The Giants were 10-6 last year and Eli passed for over 4,000 yards for the second straight year.  But, the Rams have beefed up the line on both sides of the...

Jackson said Wednesday the injury is trivial and that trainers are just being cautious. He plans on fully participating in Thursday’s practice.

2011 Offseason Acquisition Analysis – Post Preseason Game 1

Here’s a look at some of the Rams’ key 2011 acquisitions after we have (potentially) received our first look at each of them as a St Louis Ram. OLB Ben Leber:  Ben signed a 1 year $1.25M contract.  He previously played for the Vikings and is a pretty solid veteran player. He’s coming into his 10th season and I would count this as a good pick up. OT Quinn Ojinnaka: Quinn...

Do Not Jump To Conclusions

This season, I’m going to work on a project in which I watch every Rams game again on Tuesday (or Monday night if the MNF game is boring) and I started to watch the Rams first preseason opener and I stopped after two serieses, one each by the Rams offense and defense.  By that time, the Colts had gone from their 1B team to their actual B team and the Rams were already up on the...

Spagnuolo Likes the Rams Only Hit with Two Penalties in Opener

Coach Steve Spagnuolo was impressed with the Rams in their preseason opener, especially with the fact that they committed only two penalties. Spagnuolo joked on Sunday, a day after St. Louis beat Indianapolis 33-10, that he wasn’t sure if referees weren’t interested in dragging the game out. The Rams and Colts played a penalty-free first half. The Rams finished with 14 penalty...

Rams Cut Mr. Irrelevant

The Rams completed a one for one linebacker swap today, cutting former last pick of the draft David Vobora to make room for new linebacker Ben Leber.  Vobora was forced into starting roles the last two seasons by injuries and ineffectiveness, but never got consistent playing time after injury spot starts.  Vobora was solid against the run when he got his reads right, but was a...
