Feeling festive today, even with a JAX loss.

Schwartz staying classy by cussing out the home fans for booing the decision to play for OT.

 

[Buzzman]

Fuck that POS cocksucker. I hope he gets hit by a bus and dies a slow and painful death.

Maaan, that Bears Eagles game was fuckin fun to watch...........

 

[dave]

Eagles-Bears: Can't wait for next week, this really meant nothing.
Dolphins-Bills: Imagine if the Bills had a real QB this season.
Vikes-Bengals: As an Eagles' fan, can hardly badmouth the Vikings.
Colts-Chiefs: As I have said repeatedly, the Chiefs are not elite in any way shape or form, but I love Andy Reid and Alex Smith.
Bucs-Rams: For all the criticism of Kellen Clemens, that dude has been damn impressive all season ... clearly a good backup.
Browns-Jets: Jets may finish 8-8 and be seen as hopeless.
Cowboys-Redskins: Cousins won't get a 1st or 2nd round pick, but the Reskins will get at least a 3rd. Frankly, I'd keep Cousins if I were the Redskins. He's worth more as a backup than a 3rd round pick.
Saints-Panthers: Luke Kueckly - wow.
Titans-Jaguars: Give the Jags this, they never quit.
Broncos-Texans: Where will Schaub be a #1 QB next year?
Lions-Giants: Time for Schwartz to be replaced. Lions too talented to keep underachieving.
Cards-Seahawks: I enjoyed watching the overly cocky Seahawks losing at home.
Steelers-Packers: At least it set up a good week 17 game.
Raiders-Chargers: Still a Terrelle Pryor fan. I want Pryor over McGloin for entertainment factor. Pryor is get rich or die tryin' McGloin is been there, done that.
Patriots-Ravens: Way to lay an egg, Ravens.
49ers-Falcons: Game over.

A few weeks ago, I remember you posted that Bradford should be finished as Rams QB, and now you are praising Clemens.

This is not meant to pick on you specifically, because i've been reading shit like this everywhere, including this forum. But it really drives me nuts that we still can't be sophisticated enough as fans to get past this idea that if you win, it must mean the QB played good, and if you lose, it must mean the QB did not play good and it's all his fault.

Sam Bradford's performance this year shits on Kellen Clemens. He's been so much better, that he not only shits on Clemens, he takes a big wet steaming pile of diarrhea on him.

Bradford (who people think should be run out of town): 227 YPG, 60.7%, 14 TD, 4 INT, 1.5% INT, 90.9 QBR
Clemens (who is playing "damn impressive", etc): 155 YPG, 54.7%, 7 TD, 5 INT, 2.6% INT, 78.4 QBR

Kellen Clemens stinks. He's been mediocre at best. The Rams clearly don't trust him with the ball, because in his four wins, he's averaged less than 20 attempts per game. In the wins, he's largely stayed out of the way while the running game & the defense have won games. But his shitty play has directly led to at least two losses.

The Rams struggled early on this season because they had zero running game with Daryl Richardson before Zac Stacy emerged, and it took the young WR's about a half season to settle into roles and figure out what they were doing. Tavon Austin didn't figure it out until after Bradford went down (including in the return game), and Stedman Bailey barely played until a few weeks ago. Austin had about 250 all purpose yards through the first 8 games, which is putrid when you consider he was returning all kicks & punts.

They aren't winning because of Clemens, they are winning in spite of him. He isn't playing well, and Bradford wasn't playing badly. It's actually the opposite.

 

[Golden Taters]

Nobody has really given the Rams a chance on this site these last two years, playing them off as a shit team when they actually have a lot of good guys. Bradford is clearly better and Clemens is not a guy you want to be starting at QB week in and out. St Louis are building a great D, especially what they're doing in their front-7. They have a lot work to do on the offensive side of the ball but Bradford wasn't the reason it hasn't taken off. The WRs have been mauled and the OL has been a joke, but they are moving in the right direction for the first time in a long while so it will be interesting how next year's squad looks.
