Last week the Rams got crushed by the Bears. Our ole buddy Trent Green threw 4 picks after Bulger left the game. Stephen Jackson was injured and they had 14 yards in total rushing. Here's a Rams injury update from footballoutsiders [:]FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Football analysis and NFL stats for the Moneyball era - Authors of Pro Football Prospectus 2008 Early reports on Steven Jackson are good, but Jim Haslett has to feel a bit like Phil Connors when it comes to his star running back. Every week, Jackson's quad/knee injury loosens and tightens with seemingly no rhyme or reason, based on his reaction to treatment and ... well, maybe the tides, or his horoscope. There's really no way of telling whether or not Jackson will play at this point in the week and it's not much easier at the end of the week. Keep an eye on the practice reports and remember that even when he is back, the Rams are very likely to use Jackson and Antonio Pittman as a RBBC. With Marc Bulger's availability in question, it's tough to say how Jackson will affect the game plan, in or out. We gotta beat these guys. I know, any given Sunday..., but we gotta grab the low-hanging fruit.
Yeah this is a must win and we need to not only win but really put the hammer to these guys. After last week we need a convincing, running away with it game to get confidence and back on track for our playoff run!
I just need a win so i can forget about that mess of a loss on sunday. Anythign to help me never remember that game again would be great.
If Matt Forte can run for 132 yards on 20 carries, what will Ronnie and Ricky do? I just hope we can get a nice lead and run, run, run behind a healthy Jake Long.
Agreed, this week I would really liek to see us set the tone of the game right from the beginning. Take control with the OL and Ram the R&R express right down their throats. Explode for points and let Henne play the last quarter and a half of the game. Pie in the sky I know, but hey I can still dream.
I want to see Chris Long play. As for "us", man we just went through Football Warfare, we are banged up something terrible, I'd like to see Vern move back to LT and take Garner of the PS and sit Big Jake with that ankle sprain. I know we want to take out some frustrations, but we should be smart about this, we need Big Jake in the last three games...not right now...
