Well this game put me in a difficult position. I really want the Rams to win of course, but I really don't want the Seahags to get closer to the Cards.

The Rams have been playing some pretty good ball lately, be it against the Raiders and Redskins. They had a chance to beat the Chargers but blew that one.

They are out of the playoffs but are in the position of spoiler now. The defense has really come on and might give Stanton trouble. The big key for a Rams win is to get some turnovers and the Rams to keep theirs to a minimum.

Mason has turn out to be a very capable RB, as have Britt and Bailey as WRs.


Well to all who are making the trip be safe, and depending on my fellow tailgaters I might catch a few of you down by the river.

Rams are scary good, young and hungry. Not looking forward to what your guys bring to the table Thursday; and in coming years. As physical a defense as there is in the league. If you guys could go ahead and let us have this one just to screw the Seahawks, that would be great. :)

May the best team win. It super sucks that the people of St. Louis may again find themselves without a team and at the moment the Rams are still in St. Louis and I hope they are able to stay. On that note, it is a win for your team and all wins count regardless of the playoffs. I sincerely hope we can beat the Rams, but you guys need to be really proud at the way your team is looking right now... your future is looking bright and I hope it means that in the seasons to come this matchup will decide the West in the NFC :)

Hey RMFN-----Good to hear from you again. Wow, your guys have really come on this season. You started with a pretty good defense, and not much offense. Now you have a killer defense and a really decent offense to go with it. I am glad to see you making some real progress in St. Louis. You just might be the best team in the NFCW right now, which is not real good news for us. That is good to see though, as you have had a tough row to hoe for a while there.

Our Cards, meanwhile, have been doing it by belief in the coaches, dedication to each other and team, and willingness to lay it on the line for each other. We are, in some cases, playing third stringers and beyond. Injuries and other losses of personnel have really taken a toll here this year. Our newest starting running back was on a practice squad two weeks ago. Sunday's game against the Chiefs have added to that again with possible losses of a starting corner back and a starting linebacker for your game. Our quarterback was limping pretty badly after that game as well, and our feature back is now on IR for hernia surgery.

Our defense will have its hands full to keep the score down, (and close), so that we are still in this game in the second half. Then it will be up to our run game to keep your edge rushers honest going into the late stages to see if we can manage some points. Meanwhile, most of us are simply marveling at the fact that we are now 10/3 at this point in the season, and are now playing with house money because no one expected us to be here. This has been a really fun season to follow the Red Birds. I really look forward to this game, win or lose.

So glad you guys didn't figure it out until late this year. Otherwise we'd be looking at a much different scenario in the division. I'm terrified of this game to be honest.

That and terrified of next season on how the Rams are shaping up to make the NFCW even harder.

im excited that the tides could be turning to the rams and cardinals running the division. I see the rams as a good rivalry whereas I hate the other two teams.

should be a good game. To start the year I think we have a better squad but at this point of injures and etc I wouldn't be surprised if you guys have more talent overall.

I don't feel we can walk in and win this with conviction but I hope we pull it off.

Seems Rams still have an outside shot at a winning record this year. Remind me a lot of us last year. Strong second half of the season, led by great defense and improving offense.

This is going to be a very tough Thursday Night game.

Go Cards!!!

I'd be surprised if it's a one sided game either way. I expect a tough defensive game and low scoring. I really feel that any turn over either way will decide the game.

The Rams secondary will have to contain the WRs but the front four will have a advantage with Stanton, as I don't think he is a scrambler.

If the Rams can get Mason going then it will give Hill some time for some play action.


I'm looking forward to the game but I wish we had a better shot at the playoffs but I think I'll have to wait till next year for that to happen.

Actually reminds me of the Cardinals last year when they came on strong a little too late. This game is going to be brutal. I just hope we make it out of St Louis healthy.

Well. another year and I had to put up with another Rams loss.. It was a defensive struggle like I thought it would be. The Cards D did a great job hold the Rams to 6 points. I hope Stanton will be coming back. I really thought the Rams would come back at the end but oh well.


Good Luck to the Cards the rest of the year and in the playoffs. Please get pass the Seahags and go deep in the playoffs,

Tough game to watch, I swear the every game the Cards shave a couple weeks off of my life. Good luck to the Rams in the next couple games and see you next year, RMFN!

You sir are a truly loyal fan. We appreciate your love and appreciation of the game. We hope to hear from you next year, and welcome you back anytime. It's too early to tell about Stanton, but it doesn't look very good. I will apologize for any uncivilized remarks thrown your way by posters here. Most of us are very proud to trade information and hopes and aspirations with you. See you next year.

Thanks! I'll be cheering for your Rams week 17 in Seattle. Why not sweep the Hags this season. ;)
