We shot ourselves in the foot

[chris98251]

Give the Rams credit today, we shot ourselves in the foot and can't be expected to win when we play like that. Defense, you did all you could do other then get turnovers yourself. Rams protect the ball well so it does take two for that to happen.

Saying all that, on another day I would not bet on the same results, we were able to hang in there despite our short comings today, playing without the turnovers we come out on top I truly believe.

We have progressed, but the savvy of the Rams and experience won out today, I have stated we have to learn to win when things are not going well. Snatch the win from a situation looking like a defeat.

Well….past results and experiences are good predictors of future results. I hate to say it but when Darnold is pressured he cracks and makes mistakes.
If we lose Zane’s also, it will be tough for the hawks to defeat the rams.
With this loss, what are the chances of winning the division, is going to the playoffs as a wild card more realistic?

They needed this type of game! The last 3 games they've dominated other teams. Even though they lost, they battled and scrapped it out and had a chance to win on the last play of the game. Lesson learned! Sets up a hell of a game at the end of the season on our house!

The Rams have proven they are better than us.

But the Rams have always owned us for as long as I can remember.

The bigger problem is Darnold folding like he did. Not sure it has to be the Rams for us to see Darnold fold like that again.

Darnold didn't fold. Folding would mean he quit on us. He clearly didn't do that. He had a shot to pull out the win at the end (and there was some poor offensive clock management). I sure don't consider that folding.
