They're defense is suspect af now. The bears were driving up and down all game. If it was us we would've easily put a 40 burger on them.

Running game and defense. But they still have some super stars on that defense. And our defense looked pretty suspect as well — more suspect than theirs did. I'm a natural pessimist, but every single other NFC West team looked like a legitimate contender Sunday. This is going to be tough.

If our defense looks suspect than the Rams defense looks awful. The Bears offense looked like a well oiled machine and it's not like the Rams put their back ups in or had any injuries or played prevent defense. Enough said.
I still don't think you watched the game because you keep dismissing the fact we put up that many points and held them to that few points with back ups playing for quite some time not to mention prevent defense.
So if you want to say we gave up a few runs up the middle and some TE catches that's fine but short of that, before prevent D and putting in our back ups you have no point whatsoever.

Shanahan is in Mcvay's head. Especially after we beat them with 3rd stringers last season

So true. It's night and day the coaching. I'm still amazed people point out their overall records when attempting to compare coaches when Shanahan has had the worst injuries of any coach. Especially at the most important positions like qb de hell everyone

I watched it. And I watched Jarred Goff look like a god for a quarter or so, and I saw a run defense that looked like the 1990s AFC.
As for us putting up that many points, it was against arguably the worst defense in the league last year. If you mean to say that us scoring that many points put our defense on the field longer, The Rams allowed 14 but scored 34, and the Tardinals allowed 13 but scored 38. Time of possession? Lions 33:28. Bears 35:14. The Titans game wasn't as bad, but the Bears had the ball for longer than the Lions did and scored 19 fewer points.
I'm concerned. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm absolutely concerned.

You lost all credibility before but then you double down by saying Jared Goff looks like a God? Give me some of what you're smoking. You say you watched the game but you failed to admit that we put in back ups for quite a bit of the game. Bosa was even told he was done for the day and took off all the tape he had on. You've got to be kidding me.
I know people troll on this forum but you're starting to make it look like an excellent troll job or just an ignorant fan.
Again, did you see the back ups playing? Did you acknowledge that Jason Verrett went down and that is the reason Detroit started scoring as well as prevent defense . Thanks anyways for your analysis but it's completely worthless and way out of line. Come on man

We dont have any Rams fans. Zero. Some of us have just pointed out that Stafford is almost universally considered a better QB than Jimmy G. and posters like Woo have a s**t fit and claim we are all Rams fans.
Right. What we have here is a lot of football noobs who think they know what they're talking about but will be proven spectacularly wrong this season. And then they will move the goal posts. It's not about the Rams. It's about people who don't know what they're talking about daring to act like they aren't clown shoes.
Stafford is better than Wilson too.......so it's not like a big deal should be made that he's better than Jimmy.

Against the bears? Their D looked average at best. Allowed the bears to pass midfield almost every possession.

Not gonna discredit them, but they could've very easily lost today. Colts turned it over on downs twice (threw an INT on a shovel pass) inside the 5 yard line and the backup threw a pick down 3 to end the game.

Rams deserved to lose today. The s**tty Colts that were very injured were running up and down the field on them like I said. No TY Hilton, No Rhodes at CB, no Wentz the last 2 drives? The Rams have a very overrated defense and an average running game. It's better to be lucky than good I guess

Fun fact about the Rams defense: It might quietly be bad! They rank 23rd in success rate allowed, per https://t.co/6vcrUsNoTE. pic.twitter.com/vtwNs3GacU
