We are better then last year.

We are going to be good this year guys. The D need to look at the game and see what they need to work on.

I think this team will be very competitive this season. No longer pushovers.

I agree. But for right now, I feel terrible. It was awesome being in that position that late in the game, but terrible that the team has a L for today.

We were so close... I haven't enjoyed a game like this in a long time! I just hope a loss like this dosn't hurt the morale of the team. and I sure hope Saffold is OK

I agree, it's just hard when you were so close. I hope Roger comes back OK, and we'll open up against the skins

It was a masterfully coached game, the 3 ints are proof , IMO Bradford threw a little late to Givens and is still holding the ball a little long, but weare the youngest team in the league and didn't look like it ON THE ROAD in a very hard place to play.

Next week Washington who has beaten the Saints today,if Saffold isn't out and Wells can come back MAYBE next week we get on the board.

Washington's defense has been dropping like flies, I don't know how major any of the injuries are but it could mean something. The Saints defense has been pretty underwhelming though, I expected more from Spags. RG3's first 5 passes were 5 bubble screens that weren't even throw in front of the line of scrimmage, but the Saints weren't adjusting and he kept doing it. Then he finally threw about a 10 yard pass and Garcon took it 88 yards to the house.

I haven't really watched him sense, but it seems like the Saints defense was worse than RG3 was good. His confidence will be soaring though, so the Rams better knock him around a bit.

I feel somewhat better that next week is the first home game. The Rams will be more disciplined on the road next time, mark my words.

It was exciting all the way through! BIG D kept us in the game & failed at the end. Fish played the clock like a pro. QB was shaky the whole game with the line not giving him the time of day.

GREAT GAME TODAY GO RAMS!!!!!

We have some things to work on on both sides of the ball.
But overall, what we did today against a great offense, shows me growth, and a team headed in the right direction.
Fisher and staff will look at the film and get things dialed in.
Be strong my Ram brothers. This is going to be a fun season and many more going forward.

GO RAMS!!!!

6 catches 111 yards, although most came in the 1st half, and half of them on that 51 yarder.

The excitement was nice.
For all the changes it wasn't that bad of a effort. Didn't like the prevent in the last couple drives and the pass on the last play of the Ram last drive. Would have been better to run it to force the Lions to use their last timeout or eat up more clock.
Everyone on the Rams can improve on that game.

Totally new and positive feel with Fish managing the game. His coaching will be responsible for more than 1 victory this yr all by itself.

.

the rams played great in a tough environment.

sam was clutch when he needed to be. gibson made plays when he needed to in the 4th qtr. the d made plays all game.

but the d couldn't keep it up and at the end let the lions waltz down the field quite easily for 2 scores.

still, a good effort to build off for the start of the season. the rams will get there in the end.

Very exciting game. I feel hopeful! However, the Lions moved the ball with ease. The bend don't break defense never works. The passing game was looking pretty good IMO, a lot of nice third down passes, a few got called back on dumb penalties I do believe. Happy to see them keep it close down to the wire, but frustrating to see the defense crumble with the game on the line. Need those DTs healthy.
