Interesting assessments and re-do picks there. It was a pretty thin draft, but the Rams did ok compared to a lot of other teams that year. If Chris has the season play out based on how he’s done thus far, maybe Wikipedia will find a picture of him in a Rams’ uni they can use…

You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In *St. Louis* his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well, *Steven Jackson* was the best.

Good to see him having CLEAR impact on D

The only thing comparable to a Rams win is a 49er loss!

Having Long start to find his "presence" late last year,

and following through so far this year, is a HUGE sigh of relief. If Long would have continued to struggle, who knows where our team would be right now… he has been a big part of our success.
