As so many people have already said, last night was an embarrassment, at best. Luckily, with some distance, after a so so night's sleep, the game no longer seems like a destiny to me. It seems more like a nightmare I can forget while I get on with my day.

But will the nightmare come back next week, and the week after? Will we Rams fans have to shrug off nightmares each Sunday in order to get back into our real-time lives on Monday?

WV Ram suggests (in another thread) give it three games at least. That makes sense. That's fair. I can go with that. But, if we're just basing it on Opening Day, it's kinda easy to write this season off already. Unfair, yeah. Waaay hasty, sure. But easy.

Steve Young made some good points last night. The Rams have this weird horizontal offense, and, well, it's not really physically possible to score horizontally. Duh, as the young kids used to say. The game is set up to go forward, not side to side. So, unless Fisher can come up with a way to upend the laws of physics, or at least the NFL, he's going to have to scrap the horizontal game plan.

And the defense? They were abysmal in the first half, flashed a little in the second, but then went back to being abysmal. So, a high school level offense, an incredibly disappointing defense, a coach, staff and organization that appear woefully unprepared for the new season, the #1 pick inactive, after the Rams gave away the farm to get him, etc. etc. I'm really trying to come up with something positive, some silver lining to all of this, and I just can't.

It was one of Fisher's worst games for sure. Maybe THE worst, but for me, the London game will
always be the worst. But thats just me. Hard to measure hideous games when the fall this far
into the abyss smiling smiley I mean its like Dante measuring levels of hell. Ya know. Was the 49er game in the seventh level? The ninth? smiling smiley

I just can NOT believe that was the rams. I'll need a couple more games to know
what the LA Rams are.

God-willing the rams will score a TD before Christmas.

Don't you mean, Goddess-willing before the Winter Solstice?

(My closest-to-ready novel deals with such things.)

Dante. I think he would have sung a different tune if he and Beatrice had actually hooked up, ya know?
