Thanks!

At 1 point I thought these were the 2 best teams on the NFC… now I don’t expect much from either

Go Cards!

For once we agree. Lol.

They are both limping into the playoffs (literally and figuratively) but it looks like the Niners, Packers and Bucs are playing much better. The only good news is whoever wins will not have to play their next game in the frozen tundra.

I have a bad feeling that the Cards will play much better tonight.

All the historical trends point to the Cards winning.

Yuck

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:01 am

What trends? The Cards don’t have much of a positive playoff history!

I love that this is going in the direction it’s going. Instead of shit talking the opposing team- each side is just going to try to convince the other side of how bad their own team is

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:17 am

Rams trends. Like the results when their being favored and/or playing at home.

Plus I’m convinced McVay’s balls shrink in primetime.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:19 am

I think the pressure is way more on the Rams because they bet the house on the Stafford trade along with Ramsey and Miller. They are all in for winning now.

Cards have more future upside with Murray & co.

The reverse jinx attempts are strong in this thread.

The Rams will lose. The Rams will lose. The Rams will lose.

The Rams make their own bad luck.

Can we all just agree that both these teams thought St Louis was a shitty place to reside?

Of course

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 5:17 pm

It really sucks DeAndre Hopkins will miss the playoffs. His absence has really impacted the entire offense. AJ Green is not a #1 receiver anymore

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:30 pm

Both teams look nervous.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:40 pm

Rams strike 1st

I don’t have a good feeling

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:41 pm

Cards are going to get boat raced.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:47 pm

The first pass is supposed to be backwards, and the second forward, you idiots.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:47 pm

Glad that trick play wasn’t executed right because there was no one in blue on that side of the field.

UAEebs86 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:47 pm The first pass is supposed to be backwards, and the second forward, you idiots.

It can be the other way around too. But you gotta make sure at least one is backward.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 6:48 pm

There was a time when the Cards offense could not be stopped

Now… a 1st down would be nice

True, but I don't think I've ever seen that trick play start with a forward pass and then a lateral (I'm probably forgetting some).

Two forwards was a bold strategy Cotton.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:02 pm

Keep running the ball.

Keep stopping the run.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:06 pm

That's a TD unfortunately

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:07 pm

Gotta be a TD.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:09 pm

So the Rams jumped out to a 17-0 lead against the Niners last week so I’m not celebrating too soon.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:14 pm

Rams travel agent is booking flights to Tampa.

Not a catch

Everything Steve Levy says seems like he thinks it’s the most exciting things by ever.
It’s just the way his voice is.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:27 pm

I don’t think it’s a catch either but I never know who is drinking back in NY.

Holy fucking stupid of all stupid things to do

When did Kyler Murray turn into Jarred Goff?

Geez.

I’ve argued they should change their name back to PHX so they stop embarrassing the entire state forever.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:38 pm

What a joke

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:49 pm

Hoping the Rams can get one more score here. McVay loves to go to the Prevent Offense when the Rams aren’t up nearly enough.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:49 pm

I want that fucking xchair.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 7:53 pm

I will be rooting for the Rams get to the SuperBowl over the Bucs and Packers

Like last week when they were up by 7 with the ball and 3 minutes left in the game. I’m still pissed they ran the ball 3 times when a first down would have pretty much sealed the game.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:00 pm

Would Kliff consider putting in their backup?

Exactly

Murray is not a big game player(at least not yet). You could argue it was losing Hopkins, but he did the same thing in December last year and this year. Now he stinks up this playoff game and just looks nervous and scared.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jan 17, 2022 8:40 pm

Baker’s head hitting the turf looked bad in so many ways. Hoping like hell he’s ok.
