For reasons not even God can understand the Rams from the HC right down thru the entire roster either take SF too lightly or just maybe overlook them altogether. They need to 'play football'... and that means hit, run, tackle.
Me and several others on this board have noted, time and time again, that SF just out muscles us.... and that aggravates me to no end because I don't think it needs to be that way at ALL. Rams may be a complex and smart football team but they CAN also be tough and mean... again, for reasons not even God can understand they just seem to choose not too when it comes to the Niners.
Troublesome to me is that having seen seen several Niner games this year, (every year due to no choice if I want to watch football, NOT my choice)... they respond badly to getting smacked early, meaning they unravel... but that's exactly what the Ram's don't do... and I think it paramount they change that and change it now. It's great that the Rams have shown the ability to hang, get tougher as the game progresses, but do that against the Niners and they're going to get every bit as confident in themselves as the Ram's do in themselves. Crush them early, and I mean CRUSH... and I can almost guarantee you SF will start unraveling, making mistakes, and the Ram's will cruise to victory. Fiddle fart around and look out. - JamesJM
