Great game.  The Rams deserved the win, imo.  The most impressive I've seen Goff look.

 

 

I didn't watch that closely, but it seemed like he was playing his own game called "lets see how close can i come to having every pass intercepted."

All I can say folks, is we better hope Andy Reid finally learns how to win a playoff game cause I don't trust anyone from the AFC to stop the Patriots. So it's up to us and KC. 

 

Maybe Baltimore...possibly

Doubt that very much. The only time Lamar has seen good defenses he's been stymied. Imagine what they did to Allen, but without the all-world helping bail Allen out. Baltimores defense is one of the most underperforming units in the NFL right now.

Not a huge believer in Goff, but I have to say he looked great on those last few drives.  He delivers the ball quickly, on-target and without fear.

 

And Russell Wilson is a great touch passer.  As good as anyone I’ve seen.

 

really fun to watch these guys tonight

Okay...after seeing those pee green, mountain dew uniforms of the hawks, I'm definitely rooting for the Rams.

 

If your pee looks like that, seek medical help immediately 

 

unless mtn dew does that to your innards?

 

They hurt the eyes for sure.  They remind me of our Pan tho

It's gonna be entertaining to watch @GunnerBill do somersaults to explain this away.

 

Not at all. I'd have been perfectly happy for them to take DK on day 2. Go back to the draft threads - it is all there. I did not, under any circumstances, want to spend a top 10 pick on him because it would have been an almighty reach. He has value, he has blazing speed and runs long routes fine. All the reasons he was not a first round pick were on display last night too. Inability to separate in short spaces and questionable hands (if Zay Jones had failed to come up with the 2 point conversion effort then this board would have exploded - and rightly so).

 

So far DK Metcalf is exactly who I thought he would be. He is an effective but one dimensional wide receiver. That dimension can be electrifying and game changing. He is a really good number 2 option. There were people here banging the table to draft him at #9 arguing he was a #1 receiver in the making. Those were the people I took issue with. He is a better version of Robert Foster.

Baltimore's losses on D have been exposed over the past two weeks.  They excited everyone getting to 2-0 by beating up on Miami and squeaking by Arizona at home, but they are likely an 8-8 type of team.  Very big game for them this week at home vs. the Rudolph-led Steelers.

Balls on target in tight windows.  Took them down the field with no time out. The pick was a bad drop by Everett.  

Yea, Kupp drop a catchable one just before that one too. Goff played better yesterday.

I don't really think you need to explain anything away. DK has 2 TDs this season. Where were all his supporters when he had all of 1 catch on 4 targets for 6 yards against the Cardinals? He still has questionable hands. He has similar production to Brown, a late 1st rd pick, thus far. You could argue they were both 2nd round picks. Certainly not top 10 picks.

Hypothetical:

 

Are 2 TDs better than 0 sacks? Or, if you're feeling defensive about our #9 pick, are 2 TDs better than a dozen or so completely blown pass blocking assignments?

Well, I'd say he's a MUCH better version of Foster, considering Foster's done absolutely nothing this season.

Yep. And to AJ Brown. I had those three:

 

1 AJ Brown

2 DK Metcalf

3 Marquise Brown

 

And I didn't have any of them as first rounders. I had them all as high 2nd rounders. I never suggested that any of the 3 of them couldn't play but to pick any of them at #9 would have been absurd.

Oh Joe, never change. 

 

The comment is on DK, not Oliver but carry on and when Oliver starts getting sacks, he will, you can change the goal post again!

 

I see you are ignoring his game against the Cardinals... the Bills really could have used that last week against the Pats** huh? 1 catch for 6 yards.
