Pictures to prove it: Rams don't look like contenders anymore

by Ryan Van Bibber on Dec 20, 2010 9:02 AM CST in 2010 St. Louis Rams season

Once again, some great photos from the game, if you can stand to relive the St. Louis Rams incredibly disappointing, deflating, loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

And a bonus question: Spagnuolo has done an admirable job holding the team together over in the face of crushing losses. That's probably easier to do in a 1-15 season than after players have finally tasted success. Will frustrations boil over at some point, during the season's remaining games? The offseason?

They did look like contenders in our division

We were 6-6 at one point and there is no excuse to go 0-4 from there. Truth be told we have looked better earlier in the season. Can’t see this group surpassing a very capable 9ers team.

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

Bradford looked pretty bad, but let's not forget he's a rookie. We put him on a pedestal too soon.

… also, our o-line was a sieve yesterday.

Just a bad game all the way around.

I can take a beating ... I'm a Rams fan.

+1

I completely agree with your comment on Bradford. I really think all the hype got to his head and is now making some terrible decisions. If that’s the case, he needs a good shaking to come back down to earth.

i doubt sam is the type to let anything get to his head

but i think if anything we expect too much of him now. and as such when he doesn’t play like a hybrid between peyton, brady, montana and marino we forget he’s a rookie playing on a bad team with a weak supporting cast.

yeah he played bad and has done last few games, but so has the rest of the team. i think that’s a more accurate reflection.

Bradford to Onobun!

I would say a rookie with no supporting cast is where Sam is at all year

Devaney the dick never got him players to throw too he left Sam hanging in thin air if Sam just had two average WR on this team he would be braking records every week the kid has no one,Danny Amandola is a weter boy of most teams but we have glorified him like hes some kind of super star lol in reall life he sucks

I'd say your right

even Jackson blew a block that led to a sack on Bradford.

Jackson whiffed big time and looked worse than that of a practice squad reach. It was jeebus aweful.

I know you're talking about the Rams players,

but my frustrations have already boiled over. That was a pathetic effort yesterday. Even Donnie Jones stunk it up. He was so upset after his last punt he took his helmet off and slammed it against the gatorade table loudly enough everyone in the place heard the boom.

This team is so soft it is ridiculous. This coaching staff has got to change the attitude and demeanor of the team fast or we’ll start right back down the slipperly slope to 1 – 15. I’m usually one of the guys saying not to be too negative, that thins aren’t that bad. But yesterday changed all that for me. They are pathetic.
