Both Vikes and Chargers put up 3+ TD performances today and both won. Vikes did it in the road. So, both of those are good offenses. Also, Seattle at home is Seattle at home. Last year's clincher game was really an aberration in its lopsidedness.
So... I'm not ready to say the sky is falling with the defense. It definitely doesn't look good, but it's not necessarily a train wreck yet.
Also,
do not look for your validation from the media. Regardless of all the love the Rams got over the last ten days, remember that we are not "in the club" of hallowed and sainted teams like Packers, Patriots, Steelers, Niners, etc. There are those out there looking for an excuse to call us paper tigers and now they have it. Whatever. Let 'em. Let's just get the W against Denver next week.
