St. Louis Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo gives his day after presser at 2 p.m. Central time today. The coach should have plenty to talk about in today's press avail. At the top of the list will be questions about the status of injured players like Sam Bradford, Steven Jackson and Danny Amendola.
Let me go ahead and throw out a spoiler. Do not expect any confirmation as to whether not Bradford or Jackson will play next week against the New York Giants. That's especially true for Bradford considering the nature of his injury as a wait-and-see kind of thing. Jackson's status might be a little clearer, but remember, the veteran running back often misses practice time during the week to rest.
You can watch Spagnuolo's press conference live right below and discuss in the comments. Following his presser we'll have more for you to chew on from yesterday's game. For now, enjoy the coach.

He got cracked helmet to helmet -- it was a staggering hit
Maybe only staggering to me

sure, but it was widely reported as a shoulder stinger
much different than a doubly fractured neck

A bit confused
If Spags is saying the team isn’t prepared to execute “basic things”, isn’t he condemning his own coaching? Who is responsible for the “basic things?”

Besides the Bartell news (and it's pretty serious news)
I think I’m satisfied. I already accepted the idea of Danny being out for the year but Smith is only day to day and Bradford only has a bruise. Steven is prolly missing a game, so over all . . . . I can live with it. Bartell’s injury is killer though
Yea any other year I'd almost be in tears over SJax
But caddy was beast yesterday…
Sam Bradford to Mike Sims-Walker
Kinda has a ring to it
if you thought spags was on the hot seat before?
lets see how he’s going to go in the rest of the season with a bunch of scrubs! he better win coach of the yr and coach his mother f’ing ass off!
Thats it, im never trash talking ever again

Giants fan here. Looking forward to the game next week.
Real sorry about the injuries. Hope your peeps are okay, and from what it looks like, sorry about Bartell, that’s insane.

Sucks. I should hope that with a negative xray, bradford should be alright for monday

I dislocated my elbow playing football a couple years ago
one of the most painful things I’ve ever been through, so I DEFINITELY feel Amendola’s pain. Its a shame, and the rehab for that is really painful. Good thing is, though, that there shouldn’t be any lingering effects from it when he’s ready to go.

We're brothers now
I did both shoulders at different times, reconstructive surgery on both, destroyed the left one again….

damn!
that blows. If you needed surgery, you must’ve torn the ligaments completely off…

the Dr said it was like spaghetti, an the ball of my bone was down on my biceps.
I have synthetic ligaments in both now. It actually affected my ability to grasp things, like my hand reacted so slow I for like 6 months….it was weird.
Anyone who goes through that, I automatically have a sense of community with.
The NFL ballers are so tough, man. Seriously tough.

Yessir. You probably impinged or tore a nerve in the process.
When I had my elbow popped back in, I had to wear a cast for a week, but had to cut it out early because my elbow was the size of a large grapefruit and the pressure on my radius/ulna was disgustingly intense.
Dislocations are a nasty business

Stay tuned for next week when...
Laurinaitis leaves for greener pastures in the WWE, Fred Robbins retires and Saffold’s arm falls off…
so, now we have a huge cornerback problem
It’s time to play the “which player will be a Ram by the end of the week” game!
thinking same thing
only send 3 & 4th round because we historically blow those picks anyways
eggs are looking for two 2nd round picks apparently...

I feel your pain, mate
but draft picks are gold. I don’t think you guys do it for that reason.
Plus from what Ive seen with the Giants….once Quinn picks it up and you have a consistently strong pass rush, it’ll hide alot of your secondary mistakes…..you guys were pretty successful against the Eagles’ OL, so you might not be too far off.

Anyone believe this?
evansilva Evan Silva
On ESPN, Adam Schefter suggested Danny Amendola is not necessarily out for the year and could return after the #Rams Week 5 bye.
I do
Generally from what I’ve seen in my years of watching football at all levels, mild dislocated elbow is about 3-6 weeks. Really depends on the severity.

Plus, as Spags said, dude is tough as nails
I’d give him points for early return based on him being a g’dam MAN

Your comment has nothing to do with the topic in our little thread here.
There’s probably some place for it, if you look around.

Jesus at least we still have a chance
I guess it’s sling it time. NO defense to play safe anymore, the best defense is to score.
bradford needs to start steppin up his game also hasn;t played well
in his last 4 or 5 regular season games…granted with limited talent ,…bur he’s not doing much better
So... Let's play the game...
What can/should the team do at CB? Trade? What FAs are available?
Maybe sign
Kelvin Hayden if he hasn’t signed anywhere, we’re fucked at corner. Justin King I assume starts now. EPIC FACE PALM!
theres noone out there dafranchize, i mean if the rams try to trade, that team will try to rape the rams with draft picks.
damn! im getting pissed!
Oh I know.
we’re fucked
It’s going to get ugly, now games are going to be played with grit, something we don’t know if this team has.
Maybe the boys rally around this. Who knows.
twitterverse saying Jackson, Amendola out, but Bradford is okay.
Its nice that you’ll at least have him.

Haha
I guess, but what we’ve seen from Spags, he doesn’t seem like one of those guys who can get his players pumped. He’s soft spoken, he’s not a fiery type of coach.
Noooooo
go to Youtube and search “McDaniels cussing out team”. He goes fucking ape shit on TV with sound.
Good,
I would like him to be more like Vermeil.

Just need to worry about replacing Bartell
We were gonna lose most of the games in the first half of the schedule anyways, couldn’t have asked for better timing.
I know, I’m trying really hard to look at the bright side
Well the good news to me is that
I heard Justin King’s name called quite a bit yesterday for his good play. Got burnt once but mostly solid. Caddy can fill in for the day monday. Guy was beastin out yesterday. Bradford is fine and 5-6 weeks for danny amendola..clutch because we will also be gettin mark clayton back and our receiving game will improve. Al Harris will have to step up and be a man. 36 years old? no worries, the dude is in serious shape. I think we can find SOMETHING at corner out there. anything would be good lol
Hopefully
Spags takes the leash off McD and Bradford and just let’s those 2 sling it. I don’t give a shit about INT’s, turnovers, etc. Just throw the fucking ball, run Caddy and get Norwood in the game. Let’s get aggressive God damn it. Fuck it, we got some crazy injuries to deal with. But our line is still healthy (fuck Smith’s fat lazy pussy ass) and we got our stars on defense still. Let’s just go balls to wall, fuck the haters and hope we can pull out some wins.
GO FUCKING RAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dead straight i'm starting to agree withyou that these guys are playing like pussies
afraid of making mistakes……let it hang already
Huh?
Justin King had a blind side sack and one decent stop against the run. He was out of position several times yesterday. Never trusted the guy, and would rather have a healthy J Murphy.
Anybody want to recap injury news?
Sam Bradford
Bradford is alright
Jackson is out a week or two and Danny out for 5-6 weeks….
Sam Bradford to Mike Sims-Walker
Kinda has a ring to it
apparently Smith has an ankle sprain?

As Per Official St.Louis Rams Twitter
OT Jason Smith’s ankle sprain is NOT a high ankle sprain. He’s day to day and could potentially play this week.

yes
though I didn’t see him get hurt, so idk where they even ruled him out in the first place and now are saying “could potentially play”

Yea I just saw him in
Then I looked down then up and he was on the bench. I was like WTF?
Sam Bradford to Mike Sims-Walker
Kinda has a ring to it
Sure
Bradford – okay will play MNF
Jackson – out for MNF be back vs. Ravens
Amendola – out 5-6 weeks may be back after bye
Bartell – out for season fractured neck
So, yeah….we got that going for us
I thought I heard something about it was just a stinger
and that he would be okay in a couple of days. That could have been someone else though
Sam Bradford
Welcome
to Rams Football, theres never a dull moment. Ive always said it takes a special person to be a Rams Fan :)
I dont know that bartells out for the season
If its not a bad fracture then he can come back in about 6 weeks. But shit come to think of it it is two fractures so he’s probably done fuck the eagles for real

Fletcher with a toe injury?
Is there truth to that?
Baseball-Cardinals
Football-Rams
College Sports-MU Tigers!
Yeah, Spags said Bradley has a toe injury
"SJAX" - The extra strength cleaner that fights off that Stubborn, Stingy Defense
toe these are fooyball players not ballarinas-----get tuff already---i'm beginning to think the rams lack tuffness and
that starts from the top down
How can coaches play Bejema or Keihl. (spelling?) How many times do we have to witness a false start, when 1st, or 2nd, an goal. Kiehl (?) just having him on the team spells DOOM. Our only touchdown was cause Jackson ran it all the way, so none of our team mates could stall our long drives. 3rd an 7. Gibson goes 6 yards. You know none of these really special players gets injured. ( I do NOT want anyone HURT), just say in. I’m soooo annoyed.
Bajema is not even close to being a bad player...
