PrintSt. Louis Rams at Cincinnati Bengals, Aug 27, 2009 6:30 PM CDT
St. Louis Rams @ Cincinnati Bengals
Preseason, week 3
Broadcast: KTVI, St. Louis; maybe somewhere else too.
Lots to see tonight as the Rams try to shake off a tough loss to the Falcons last week, a loss which featured scary reminders of last year's run defense. We didn't run quite as much on the preview side of things this week. I intentionally skipped the three questions because those things should be fairly obvious. Three things the Rams need to do this week:
- Better run defense from the first team
- Key players need to step up (Tye Hill, Kyle Boller, Chris Long, Adam Carriker, Jason Smith)
- Better run blocking
Bulger is out. Little, Carriker and Avery are not expected to play tonight. Darby's probably out. Barron and Bell are to be determined. Notably absent for the Bengals tonight is QB Carson Palmer.
Here's 3k's game preview.
For Cincy's view, head over to Cincy Jungle.
As always, we'll be in the comments and on Twitter, twitter.com/TurfShowTimes.

Whats the rule on the clock on a ball out of bounds
I thought it used to always stop until the next snap.

But when do they start it the rest of the game
When the ball is placed?
Do you know?

Yes look like a totally different team
Mixing it up, agressive defense, great blocking and play calling
You have to wonder why they went so plain last week
and then installed all these wrinkles this week

How could you be?
The Bengals offense minus Carson Palmer is a septic system.

Good stop by Clifton Ryan
When your DTs shut down those runs, it really pisses off OCs.

Atogwe FF, Butler goes about 18 miles for the TD! Who the hell are these guys?!?!

If there was any doubt Boller being the #2
it should be erased. Sorry Null-heads

Speaking of Boller
His timing with Robinson is much crisper than it is with Burton

Good drive
They pounded. Some miscues at the D-line, but we might sneak off another scoring drive before the halftime whistle

If You Are Spags
you gotta be pretty happy with the first half and what the Rams have shown. Defense looks sharp (one scoring drive and penalties did kill us) and the offense (Boller particularly) has shown signs of life.
All this without Bulger or Avery…
First half MVPs?
I give Butler and Laurinaitis a nod on that side, Boller and the o-line on the other side.
Did I see Barron playing? Barron and Goldberg starting?

Rams looking good tonight

Is anyone else watching the game on fox?

I know its just preseason..
But its hard to not get excited after a game like this about the potential of our defense.

Are there any soccer fans in the game thread?
I had to go ahead and knockout watching the Champions League draw; I’ll go through the entire Rams game either tomorrow or Saturday, but there’s good soccer on Saturday. Just wanted to pimp SBN’s new soccer site focusing on US soccer, Daily Soccer Fix.
Fill me in on what I missed since halftime…

NICE
Ah You looking good. and another sack for the Rams
