Something I meant to post Monday. I know wins count more than records but I couldn't help noting the end of the Rams game. With seeding on the line and enough time to move the ball steadily down the field, AND a proven commodity with Kupp consistently moving the chains, anyone else find it puzzling that they'd try to get it all on 1 bomb? Yes Beckham was 1 on 1 and it was underthrown, but why take that chance unnecessarily when you've moved the ball pretty well all game (all season even). Kupp is all but a first down from breaking a record that will likely stand for a long time, and you seemingly make no effort to get the ball to the QB's favourite target? McVay said the loss 'doesn't mean shit', and yet they threw away 2 places in the seeding, momentum and the chance for arguably their best player to get a huge record. For all the talent in the roster and coaching staff, the Rams do seem dysfunctional to me.
