shirts and skins posted:How is "having knee surgery" a point of confusion?? Is there any sense that he's otherwise hurt? Otherwise that's a weird thing to mess up. I think he meant to type "minor knee injury" as Whitworth didn't play the last 3 snaps of the SD game, but typed surgery and set Rams twitter ablaze for 15 minutes

Either SEA or the Rams are going to have one of those seasons where we get into the playoffs with a losing record and whoever does will also inexplicably lose to a completely decimated 49ers at some point.

The only issue with the Rams from where I'm sitting is whether their current defensive injuries will cost them the #1 seed

Rams are easily a top 5 team right now (arguably the best NFC team right now), and should have enough talent to overcome a few injuries during the season to starting players. They really do remind me of 2013 Seattle with a shutdown defense, manageable QB and excellent RB. They went through a streak where they were missing 2 of their 5 starting o-line for 3 games and went 2-1 during that stretch.

JIZZ DENOUEMENT posted:That’s insane. Does he also have stats on (scoring drives)/(all drives) ? That has to be KC right? The Chiefs have a higher points per drive than the Rams, but it's pretty close. And the obvious difference between the two teams is one has a very good defense and the other has the worst defense in the league. seiferguy posted:I'm already preparing myself for an idiotic separation between Earl and Seattle. Yeah Seattle really needed this win, and thankfully the Cowboys are so utterly dysfunctional that they make the Seahawks look like a balanced, stable team. Penny is a bust and was a massive reach just like literally everyone said, a shameful use of a first round pick but whatever, it's done with. I didn't chart the sacks, but the D line performed adequately and since Dak apparently can't throw the ball and no one could get open for him that was more than enough. If I had to guess most of those sacks took a while to develop, effort sacks kind of instead of someone just owning a lineman and getting to the QB at the top of the drop. I mean the Cowboys couldn't pass the ball so sacks come pretty easy in that situation. seiferguy posted:Rams are easily a top 5 team right now (arguably the best NFC team right now), and should have enough talent to overcome a few injuries during the season to starting players.

They're just shockingly consistent (that 6.9% three and out stat says it all) and they get good yardage almost every play, run or pass. Paired with the defense, and with the Vikings and the Packers suddenly looking lost, I think it's pretty clear that they are atop the NFC right now. Definitely if teams fail to get pressure on Goff they don't have a chance in hell at beating the Rams.

Sam Shields has been playing really well this season, a great acquisition so far. One thing to worry about though is that he is an injury risk and is known for missing lots of time from concussions. I don't have anything to say about Troy Hill lol Luckily I got over this last night because all you need to do is watch the clip and you know it's an ACL. The frustrating thing for me is that this happened because he was being asked to do way too much to keep the niners in the game. He was in the process of getting them back in it and was basically giving it his all and that's often when injuries like this happen.

They have to be the odds-on favorite to win the Super Bowl at this point, and I think they do it barring injury. Amazed at how good Goff looks too. Of course, it's September, so we'll see how things go as opposing teams adjust. But they're great, well coached, and get the benefit of much of their competition falling apart around them.

The only positive thing Bradford did was hit two wide open receivers on busted coverages. Everything else was missed throws, fumbles, interceptions, bad reads, etc. etc. etc. I don't even care if Rosen is good right away (or at all) just put him in because it can't be more painful to watch than that.

It was also the end of a long, tiring game in the hot sun which is probably when injury risk is at its highest. It just sucks. Another team is now borderline unwatchable

I will always be a bit angry at Shanahan and Lynch for not being more aggressive in getting talent this year. They're overall doing a good job, but still. When you luck into a franchise QB, maybe it's time to change your loving team development timeline, you god drat idiots.

Crossposting from the n/v thread but it sounds like Seattle got it's own Dan Shaugnessy in training: https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/seahawks/has-earl-thomas-considered-that-maybe-he-is-the-one-showing-disrespect/ Money quote: Matt Calkins posted:If I’m a truck driver working 60 hours a week just to feed and shelter my family, I’m not sure I’m wearing Thomas’ jersey anymore. And if I’m a Seahawk making a fraction of what the fifth-highest paid safety in the NFL is bringing in, I’m not sure I have a lot of empathy for Thomas’ frustration.

Bright spot is that they should be in line for another top 10 pick if they roll with Beathard. Then maybe Lynch will open up the wallet next offseason for some quality FA's.

If you're a truck driver working 60 hours a week you should have your licence pulled for gross negligence and given a stern lecture about how you're of no benefit to your family dead, and it's unlikely the families of the victims killed by your sleep deprived rear end will think as highly of your hosed up "work ethic" as you do.

Shanahan says the ACL tear in JimmyG's knee looks pretty clean, with no other damage. So that's good. Also threw a ton of shade at the refs and the Chief's defense

Nah, the touchdown pass that was called back for offensive holding. He said, basically, the game plan for the defense was to hold in the red zone every play, all game; that it was obvious they were coaching it and doing it, and you could see it on the tape in previous games. Called out the refs for allowing it, but then throwing a flag at an offensive player, “if you’re going to ignore it on one side, then you have to let them play,” in a nutshell.

I 100% believe Sutton is utilizing the "they can't call holding EVERY time" defensive strategy. Give us Earl Thomas, Seahawk fans. You know you could use the second rounder that we got for Marcus Peters. Maybe a conditional 5th.

DariusLikewise posted:Yeah the old man got his catches in, but if you take away that long touchdown in the 1st quarter the Chargers are just a bit over 300 yards, under 200 yards passing and only score 13 points. Put Greg Z. in there and take away the dumb Goff INT and Gurley's dumb fumble and this is a full-on blowout. The Rams were 4 plays away from just embarrassing the Chargers and I'm feeling pretty good right now. True on all points, I just try not to look at the "what if" factor. Mistakes are going to happen to any football team.
