Still think that? They are doing exactly what crap teams do. Opportunities fall into their lap and they squander them away. The defense is getting gashed on the ground and in the air. The six points on the board is all you need to know about the offense. I know Pittsburgh is tough this year, but jesus, they can't even compete with them.

Yeah, I do still think that. For one, I think the Steelers are going to be the best team in the AFC this year, a comparison against them isn't very fair. I don't think the Redskins are going to be a 12 win team making a deep playoff run or anything, but I do think they'll manage 9 wins and take the weak NFC East, just like last year.


Man I've missed 4 in a row in Beat the Commish. I was two games off the lead, in a 3rd place group, but now I have fallen way back. You're tied for 7th now bleu. (But really one has 12 correct and 5 have 10 correct). I think six of you have 9 correct. Anything over 55% is good against the spread.

I guess it's only one game against a pretty potent team, but they looked a lot more like the typical Dan Snyder era Redskins than division champion Redskins.

This is a painful game to watch. I feel bad for ESPN that they always have the garbage games to televise while NBC gets all the good games for their Sunday Night Football telecast.

Yeah, but the Rams O-Line letting their pass rushers run free is helping a lot. So many times they have enough men to block the rush but they just whiff or miscommunicate who is blocking who.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

So uh...I thought the Niners were going to be the worst team in the NFL. Guess I overlooked the Rams.

the nfl will make sure of it.
The Rams could come out in leg casts and still win.
there will be the typical story that they are mad and fired up and want to do the new city proud blaa blaa..

the ejected player wants to make up for his mistake. Wilson wont be able to scramble on his ankle..and the Rams will somehow win by 3 or less. Rams arent really that far for a short week away game,it wont affect them bla bla.

its hilarious reading Rams forums right now. Adults wasting emotional energy on a team losing lol.
I cant wear my Rams gear waaaa I'm embarrassed waaaa. Its just **** sports on your tv :D

The Rams scored as many points as the St. Louis Rams.

Keenum honestly shouldn't even be on a roster. He isn't good enough to even be a backup or 3rd stringer.
