  1. Mcvay with terrible time out usage as per usual. Raheem Morris terrible soft coverage as per usual getting lit up by the worst offensive coordinator in the league. Stafford throwing an INT right out of half time to give them momentum. Kendrick being a shit stain as per usual. Maher being a choke artist as per usual.

    We are not a serious team.

  2. We only win games if we completely outplay the other team. We were better today but made so many mental mistakes.

  3. The refs were so fucking bad this game. I know we had our own fuck ups but the refs handed it to them. This fucking sucks

  4. I’m so sick of losing every inflection point game. We need to accept this is another lost season with the 75 million in dead cap. Creates way too many issues closing out games

  5. This loss is on Brett Maher, Sean McVay and the offense

    The Rams lost 7 points on Maher’s boot. Need to look at other options for kicker.

    Sean McVay’s offense is supposed to lead this team. They gutted the team on defense because they thought they had enough on offense to keep them competitive while they regained control of the salary cap. They have not been up to task this year. Mcvay also terribly opened up the second half in empty set after our running game was the most efficient. That’s terrible coaching.

    The defense didn’t hold up well toward the end of the game but 17 points they gave up was off short fields due to missed field goals or a terrible pick.

    This team is so infuriating. Lead the charge offense! You’re getting lapped by a no name defense that you’re supposed to be carrying – not the other way around. Mcvay needs to step his game up.

  6. This will be the last game this season where Rams fans will be outnumbered by opposing fans at SoFi. Unlike what haters like to think, it’s only a few fanbases that take over SoFi, not the whole entire league.

    LA went 21 years without the NFL and a lot of them grew up free agent fans picking their team like it’s a character select screen on Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter. The Steelers are like Sub Zero or Scorpion or Ken or Ryu. One of the most popular choices. Fans growing up rooting for the Steelers for 21 plus years aren’t gonna drop their fandom so it’s ridiculous to expect that Rams fans can suddenly outnumbered Steelers fans today especially as the Steelers fans don’t have much opportunities to see them in LA.

    Steelers also are a fanbase that take over stadiums all over the country. They don’t do it to LA only. It was like this much Steelers fans if not more when they were in Vegas.

  7. Congrats, Brett Maher for being signed by Home Depot. And fuck you, refs. Constantly ruining games with your shitty calls.

  8. Higbee drop loomed large. If he catches it. We are up 7, first down in the redzone. Higbee isn’t reliable

  9. The refs fucked us hard at the end. But the Rams also played horribly, especially the secondary.

  10. As much as this Rams team is plucky and playing above expectation, they are also vastly underachieving which is a weird conundrum but it’s just fucking disgusting to have to watch

  11. Refs are negligent ending the game on a wrong call. The correct decision would be to rule it short and let the Steelers challenge.

  12. I am fucking irate right now. So many mistakes and yet we still had a chance if it wasn’t for rigged as refball. What the actual fuck was that spot. Fucking rigged.

  13. I’m done watching the nfl. We sucked today and probably deserved to lose but there’s no way you convince me that the games aren’t rigged. Some of the calls are so egregious, it doesn’t make sense. At the end of day it’s more of an entertainment product than an actual competition.

  14. Rough L. On the half full side it is a non conference loss.

    Mcvay used all of his timeouts a touch early and left us unable to challenge.

    Maher is a major concern. Wouldn’t be surprised if we signed a kicker to the PS this week.

    Refs were against us but as I learned watching Iowa State on Saturdays, you got to play better so the game isn’t up to a refs spot or flag.

    Onto Week 8.

  15. That spotting by the refs was fucking bullshit. Just makes me think the league is rigged with shit like that.

    Maher has got to go. Needs to bring in a new kicker. Once again for the 5th time in 7 games the team just shit the bed in the 2nd half. Also, the defense just totally melted after Maher missed that field goal. Just pathetic. Worse loss of the season.

  16. I find it fucking hilarious that we couldn’t shell out 3 mill to re-sign Matt Gay. Cut Maher and find someone else, those 7 points cost us the game.

  17. What I fear is that this team is not good enough to make the playoffs, and just good enough to miss out on a top draft pick. Some 8-9 bullshit

  18. My takes:

    – Kicker is ass
    – Our secondary is not that great
    – Offense is good for two quarters
    – We have no home field advantage against half the league

  19. The offense HAS to be better. Stafford is playing like a consensus top 10 QB, Kupp is a consensus top 5 receiver and the injury hasn’t affected him, Puka is a rookie sensation and is shattering receiving records, Higbee is decent TE although idk where he would rank across the league, the run game has the ability to be effective although it has been inconsistent, and our head coach is one of offensive geniuses in the NFL.

    Scores of 14, 26, and 17 against Philly, Arizona, and Pittsburgh is disappointing and should be talked about more. McVay needs to answer for this, like what more could you have asked for going into the season given the circumstances?

  20. If you asked me rn, I’d say that I won’t even be watching next week, but I will absolutely be back to support my mid ass team next week and I hate it
