Rams/Cowboys brawl at practice

[HawkAroundTheClock]

Rex ain't so bad. Dude is crackin' me up.

Meh. Rex is probably a good guy, but his humor is that of a middle-aged man who's finding joy in skirting the edge of trolling without being punished for it. The act gets tired when he calls for facts then dismisses them in a simple, cliché way. You think you're actually having a dialogue, but he's just getting off on you supporting a substantial conversation while he's goofing off with Ram Rules style bravado.

He actually reminds me of my dad doing his version of smack talk on our fantasy football site. You can't possibly take it seriously. Thing is, Rex gets into debates and conversations and waits until he's cornered to pull the rug out with an over-the-top ridiculous statement like he was joking the whole time. Maybe he doesn't know any better, but it's troll-ish.

He might be good for a laugh. More and more he's teaching me not to bother. But he's harmless, so as long as you know you're wasting your time trying to have a serious discussion I guess he's good for stirring the pot here at .Net.

Just know that his only reason for being here is to be a Rams cheerleader, not to dissect the finer points of football or look at football issues objectively. Right, wrong, ignorant, misinformed, delusional, or other, the only trick this pony's got is to shill Rams pride. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

No Rams fan has said its OK to play dirty or cheapshot. Bounties?! You're making crap up. Rams will play to the whistle and play hard. Hit harder than any other team. All within the rules. I won't shed a tear for any team that loses their QB because they played the Rams since no one other than Rams fans acknowledge the tremendous hit to an offense by losing the starting QB for the season.

We get in your head and knock you out when you're not looking and when you are looking. The only thing certain is you' got hit like you knew you would. There is no rest.

Not Looking ( Cheap Shot)

NFL has not had many teams over the past ten years that walk the line between tenacious and dirty. Sure, Greg Williams's Saints were probably the best example because they got caught. Coincidence? Meh, probably not.

Who's your DC, oh yes Greg Williams.


I especially like this part.

I won't shed a tear for any team that loses their QB because they played the Rams since no one other than Rams fans acknowledge the tremendous hit to an offense by losing the starting QB for the season

So Rams fans celebrate season ending injuries to QB's and you admit they are going after a player, classy real classy.

I guess if you can't beat them with talent it's easier to take them out for the season as a Rams and a Rams fan.

You say when not looking its a cheap shot. I suppose that is a matter of opinion certainly until the whistle blows. To me it depends upon where the player is in relation to the ball and if he is closing in on the ball. Blocking a potential tackler is always fair. There is an avatar on this site that shows AZ's Fitzgerald blindside blocking Sherman. Thats not a cheap shot. Even Sherman knows that. I'm glad that the Rams defense in particular is wired and coached in that manner. Rams do lack the overall talent of the Seahawks and any additional advantage they can gain I'm all for it. I don't want any team being comfortable on the field with the Rams, ever.

You keep referring back to Williams. After serving a year suspension do you really think Blandino's boys aren't paying undue attention to his defense? I DON'T. If anything with the phantom penalties assessed the Rams last season I'd say Williams on the Rams sidelines has cost the Rams an unfortunate premium in undeserved penalties.

I'm not celebrating any player getting injured. This isn't flag football. When nearly 300 lbs of onrushing D lineman collides with a stationary QB injuries happen. All defenses practice to contain the QB within the pocket in order to get the sack, fumble etc. In a real sense it is a game of attrition. Seahawks fans have been extremely fortunate for the past few years and lets face it most Seahawks fans here won't even acknowledge the detrimental effect losing a starting QB has on a teams fortune. It's a fact every HC and DC coaches without any "bounty". All defenses are coached to hit the QB whenever possible since those hits add up to reduced efficiency at that position. Every defense even the Seahawks "Legion of Boom" defense.

I am a good guy. Some of what you say is accurate but you'll have to enlighten me on the "Ram Rules style bravado". I do disagree with my ever being cornered when the topic is Fisher can't win, Fisher is dirty, Williams is dirty, Rams are dirty, Rams can't win, etc. How can any debate be considered "serious" when that is the focus?

What football issue do I not view objectively? Name one. Lets see if we're on the same page.

I agree my participation here is very much a devil's advocate role. One in which I bring my experience following the NFL from the Bidwill days in St. Louis through to the Rams of today. I assure you things have changed greatly during that time, especially in regards to the finer points. I most certainly do shill St. Louis Rams pride. I always will. :0190l:

Seahawks fans have been fortunate with injuries last few years? Ok.

At QB, yes.

 

[hawkfan68]

Ram Rules....Rex and SuperMan28, shouldn't you being practicing these for the upcoming season? The key is in the preparation.

Ram Rules....Rex and SuperMan28 which ones are you in this?

You really know how to hurt a guy. :34853_doh:

I guess you missed the whole history of the franchise before Wilson. And to be fair, it wasn't like Bradford was taking you guys anywhere to begin with.

I said last few years which is relevant with so many bandwagon fans due to recent success.

Another troll post from Rex. Shocker.

I love the pre-season uppity Rams fans! Always good for a chuckle!

They're usually gone by the time we hit week ten or so.

How good would SEA have been the last two years later it Russell Wilson had been hurt for over 20 straight games? So many games the Rams D gives up single digits in the first half and the flood gates open in the second half. When they're on the field all game they break down later. That's any team, really, but I am pounding the table for Nick Foles. If we can have him for 19 games this year then I love our Chances.

The team to beat is the Packers. I don't know if we can stop Aaron Rogers. The guy is Kurt Warner with legs. He's by a good margin the best QB in the league.

Nick Foles has never faced a top 5 defense in his career. Good luck with that.

19 games, yeah! Packers or Seahawks, yes. Still have to say RW is the best QB in the NFC. He's not traditional but he wins and that is all that counts. His success will cause teams to reevaluate how they assess QB prospects in the future.

They Ram's had deficiencies that the Seahawks don't besides QB health. The Rams had a porous running game, OL, and besides the DL the defense was weak. Seahawks had a strong running game and a prolific defense (all-around). Arizona is more comparable to what Seahawks may have done had they been without a QB. Russell Wilson is very good but Pete and John are more of the reason why the Seahawks have been able to sustain their winning ways.

The Seahawks with their backup QB would have been better than the rams would have been with their starting QB.

The Seahawks are actually the team to beat because they actually did beat the Packers and then improved their offense while the Packers did nothing to get better. I still don't see how people can believe that the Packers are the team to beat. The better team gets better and the team that couldn't get it done before stayed the same...the team that stayed the same is the team to beat. That's just dumb.

Except I don't believe the Packers would have lost to the Cheaters.

True, but when the Packers beat the Cheaters earlier in the season they outgained them in yardage 478 to 320. It wasn't close.

2 of my stepbrothers are diehard Packer fans. When the one who lives in NY came back for my stepsister's wedding, he told me "We would've beaten the Patriots." I put on my best shit-eating grin, and told him, "Yeah, but you couldn't beat us, even after we spotted you 16 points and 5 turnovers." He didn't say a thing to me about football for the rest of the weekend.

He should have been prepared for that especially if he brought it up. The Seahawks only outgained the Cheaters by 19 yards, 396 to 377. Rodgers and crew would have done better IMO.
