Experts give the St. Louis Rams some hope against the Eagles

Which is pretty cool with me I guess, just can’t wait til the game starts. I just want us to show that we are competitive and not going to lay down and take a L. Keys of the game is to run, screen passes and PA.

The D puts the pressure on Vick from the get-go, doesn’t give him any chance to settle from the very first minute, then I see absolutely no reason why we don’t start this season with a win.
Regarding the Offense, Spags needs to let McD do his job – because if the Rams are either up or down by a little heading into the final quarter, he has to trust his OC to come through, instead of relying on the “too conservative” plays we saw quite a bit of last season.
We’ve nothing to lose, the pressure’s all on Philly – play tough, play fair, put the points on the board, shut ‘em down – as Joe Swanson would say, "LET’S DO THIS!!!"

Fist off it’s a good thing we got the Eagles now in the 1st game of the season b4 they gel together. The O-Line is too young and inexperineced, and even though they are not starting the rookie center or is it the guard it’s still not enough time for them to put it together. Spags should exploit that throughout the game.

On offense I’m not expecting any deep passes not with those corners, but with the young LB corp they have Amendola and Kendricks should have a big game. At first I thought we would run the ball to setup the pass but I’m expecting the opposite. Pass first then setup the run once we gotten a 7 to 14 point lead. By then once they settled the D on our passing game we can start pounding the ball and manage the clock.

I love how different this team is from 2 years ago. this time last year we were excited when the games were close and very excited when we finally won that first game. That said, my homerism is saying that the rams after sjax rushes for 200 yards

I say we win, as long as the defense contains Vick. Their corners are gonna shut down our receivers. That means Kendricks is going to have to make his mark… Finley style.

We’re getting better, but Philly is a perennial playoff team. We’ll be doing great to register 2 sacks against Vick. They probably fumble the ball away once and we probably suffer an INT. Our WR’s will not excel. That’s the difference. I hope the officials don’t ultimately decide the game with some pansy arse pass interference or “illegal” (hard) hit penalties.

so I can be happy or sick for a week.

I think that you hit the nail on the head. Last year in our first 40 Whiners game, the game was given to them. The REF that threw the laundry was 35 yards away and didn’t have the best angle. The ball was 14 yds away from the WR and could not have been a catchable ball. It all depends if the NFL in all of its wisdom will play favorites with the out come.

    Rams Win 31-17 beagles !
