That was an interesting play call. Empty backfield on a 4th and goal at the 2. One play and that's all you got, a freaking empty backfield?

Man these Rams were sure better prepared for Seattle then we were.

IMO what kept the Rams in the game was the Hawks starting OTs being out, otherwise I think it would've been a butt whipping.

Hated that end of game choice of plays

I hated the first down call where you try to go to a smallish WR covered by one of the best CBs in the game

I hated the third down call where they went heavy -- played right into Seattle strength

I hated the fourth down call -- at the one I think you need to make the defense honor both run and pass.

Seattle had OL problems when we played them too.

That was about as stupid a series on the 1 yard line I can remember.

How long have you been a Cards fan? :D
Believe me, I've seen the Redbirds get stuffed like 4-5 times the exact same way & situation since the late 80's.

On the original third down (offsides play), really thought they were setup for a QB sneak up the middle. Might not have been a bad option on the last play either.

Should've ran the naked bootleg on 2nd down.

Stupid ass Rams. :mad:

They run the ball down their throats for more than 90 yards on the last drive. But, they empty the backfield, TWICE, on the last series taking away any threat of the run and make the defense have a much easier job.

Stupid ass Rams. :mad:

Awful play calling by the Rams and awful use of timeouts by all involved.

WHY are we the only team in the division that lays down against other teams in the division? We constantly get beaten by every team in our division like a drum. STL is no better than we are IMO and they seem to have more passion and drive. They probably would of won the game had Bradford played. I am tired of us showing no passion and drive against divisional foes. 0-3 in the division...

Horrible last minute of play, STL coaches should be ashamed for losing this game for their players.

I think Clemens must be scared to death of running, on the play where Long got called for being down field, he had an easy run if he goes... Instead he airmails it.

I dislike this Seahawks team more and more when I watch them play. The only player that they have that I like is Russell Wilson.

Brandon Browner, Golden Tate, Richard Sherman, Marshawn Lynch are all such punks. Absolute jerks and in some cases, cheap shot artists (Brandon Browner). Golden Tate just oozes "me me" punk as does Richard Sherman. Marshawn Lynch is a ghetto thug, evinced by his arrests and attitude.

Rams pi$$ed away a golden opportunity to hang a loss on the #($&#$(* Seahawks. Not a Ram-lover, but anybody {'cept Niners} who lines up against Seattle is my team. Unbelievable way to lose a winnable game. I thought Gruden was going to go down to the field and start screaming about some of those dumb penalties. With Long & Quinn {and a QB & LT}, the Cardinals would be in the NFC West hunt.

That is scary to see that the rams can hold their own against seattle but seattle blows us up like we are a pop warner team.

What really stuck out to me is after int. how many players on their team turn back and lunged at people nowhere near the play.
