You've got a good point here. We got pushed around by the Giants much like the Rams got pushed around by us. It goes both ways. We dodged a bullet yesterday just as much as the Giants did a week ago IMO, maybe more so.

Think about how many 0-2 teams make the playoffs. Not a whole lot. Had we thrown that game away like we so nearly did, we would need at least a 9-5 or 10-4 record to even consider the playoffs. Take a win where you can and hope for good against the Lions.

They knew they could get a fumble whenever they wanted. And don't even think for one second we could have kicked a field goal and won 10-9. They would have blocked it and returned it for a TD. Best Defense of all time! I said ALL TIME."

Rams player 1 - "Oh"

That's pretty funny. I was having a sheeety day and your Rams locker room convo made me laugh. Skins' fans are #1.

A win is a win lets go to Detroit next week put up 38 and stay focused.

And our defense is GREAT after seeing what Eli did to the Cowboys last night in comparison to us, and how we almost ended Marc Bulgers season on sunday. I'm very encouraged about the rest of the season.

So I ask would you rather be 0-2??? The Patriots put up 3fgs and got a L......

Well, you are certainly right, but the feelings of fear are valid. The team will not succeed if they play like this offensively. Averaging 13 points a game won't win you games in the NFL. How long of a leash do we need to give until we realize that our offensive strategies suck and we need better key players? We are wasting away a very talented defense with the underachieving offense.
I, just like all of you, are hoping and praying that we turn it around and nothing will make us feel better than to put up 30+ vs lions even though they are the lions, we need it.

I am still upset that my buddy came to me and asked "Hey the Rams are a 10 point underdog, who would you take?" Without hesitation I said "take the Rams, they beat us last year and our offense is way off from being an NFL caliber offense." The fact that I said that out loud actually bothered me, and the fact that I was dead right bothered me even more. We need and deserve better than this!

Here's to hoping that the offensive struggles are just a bad dream and we will snap out of it immediately.
