No doubt 32. They also kept them on their side of the field for most of the game giving us great field position.
Everything was working tonight. I couldn't believe how well our DBs were tackling. It was like that awesome hit by Nick Scott at the beginning of the game set the tone.

| Quote: | For the #EstablishTheRun crew: Rams rushed on over 61% of snaps last night. Highest rate this season. 5th-highest under Sean McVay, per ESPN.
(And this was not just a salt-the-game-away stat. Percentage was actually even higher in the 1st half.) |

He's done stuff like before and you really don't ever hear about it. If it was Ndamukong Suh it'd be making the news cycle.

Take you're time Hendu with you're recovery, no need to rush back with Cam the Man back in full force!
Jones would be nice to have back with our somewhat depleted defense. |

That was a real "WTF" moment. The media magnifies non-matters into BREAKING NEWS, yet they breeze over this. 
He's lucky the media decided to not follow this narrative otherwise he'd be inline for more issues than a fine. Bad look for the NFL, particularly as this is second choke attempt.
Odd tactic honestly. |

Watched the Kurt Warner movie in a theater a few days ago. It was more family/marriage focused than I expected and had less football than I expected, but some of the family stuff is pretty shocking if you didn’t know about it (but some of you may have known this stuff for a long time now).
I’ve literally googled stuff to see if it was true and a lot of it is. |

Glad it’s not Green Bay on the road this weekend. But if the 49ers beat the Packers on the road, they will look even scarier. But I don’t want to see this Rams team play Green Bay outside when it’s freezing either. I don’t like either of those matchups.
But first can’t overlook Tampa. Glad Antonio Brown decided to be an idiot. |

Of the three teams still in it, LA probably ahs the best chance beating Tampa Bay, where as we have had nothing but problems with Sf and GB.
TB secondary is not that good and is banged up. Their wide receiver core is down, and I think Ramsey can lock up Evans.
Though its never easy, I can the Rams winning 31-27 over the Bucs.

I agree and think we have a good chance to win, particularly if Wirfs is out. And even though we've lost 6 in a row to them, I'd much rather play the 49ers at home than GB on the road in absolutely frigid weather. I truly think we'd beat the 49ers if we got another crack at them. |

OL Andrew Whitworth and S Taylor Rapp will be OUT for Sunday’s game against Bucs. |

And Wirfs and Jensen are both game-time decisions for the Bucs. My guess is that Jensen will go and that Wirfs will not. |

Rapp being out is a blessing in disguise. I thought our secondary was better with Burgess and Weddle...and that's with the green-dotted Fuller out.

Tomorrow will be the final road game of the season for the Rams.

Then 2 more at home. 
Tickets for Rams Niners next week were starting at $370 a few hours ago.
We are responsible for them even being in the damn playoffs ....only fitting we stick the dagger in their hearts and obliterate them to send them packing. Can't stand that team.
Let's handle the Bucs and take it from there.

If not us then I'll pull for the Bills to win the big prize, can't think of another franchise that's longer suffering. |

Shoot, I think if the Rams can get past Tom and thte Bucs, they're probably going all the way.
I simply can not see the 49ers beating them 3 times in a row. I just...don't.

I agree. But I think the Bills or Chiefs would probably be favored against us in the Super Bowl, even in LA. I do think we'd be favored by a few points against the Bengals, if they happen to keep this Cinderella run going. |

We have a legit shot, but we have to play our A game starting today. If Stafford has a bad game and throws 2 or more picks, we are done.
Not a fan of Frisco at all - but that was a serious upset win of the Packers at home.

Most NFL analysts I've seen are taking the Bucs. Even Lindsey Thiry the ESPN beat writer for the Rams is taking the Bucs.

I've said this before but the Rams had one less day to prepare for this game because they played Monday night. And they have to fly cross country for this game. The odds are against them. They don't have much margin for error.
