Re: Ramsey: I apologize for getting BORED - Article - 3 years ago
Much ado about nothing. Basically saying he wants teams to throw at him some more and apologizing for not being ready when they did. Imagine being a top wide receiver and running routes all game long and the quarterback never throws it to you. Then with the game decided he finally does and you aren't ready for it, and you deflect it into an interception. It was frustration.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Al McGuire - 3 years ago
Duke had the quintessential role player in the late 70s named Bob Bender, Dude dove for every loose ball, set picks, the whole nine yards. Commentator Al McGuire, who retired in 77 after winning his first national title, declared that if you gave him one superstar player and four Bob Benders, he would win you the championship every year. I'm fine with a handful of expensive superstars., As loby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

What are your three biggest concerns? - 3 years ago
1. McVay. Yes, I said it. Most of our problems come back to his play calling. Quite simply he gets too cute. That second down call on our first series after the turnover...what was that? What was he doing at the end of the game? Throw it down the middle. Run up and spike the ball. Kick the short field goal. Long term, I'm a buyer with McVay. But this year he is taking his lumps as I believe a booby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Bucs / Rams always takes me back to 1984. - 3 years ago
I was a college student at UK. They had these gambling guys on TV who promised five-star locks and one of them was on this game. So I spent the 10 bucks or whatever it was and the guy said "We're going with the Rams." All I needed to hear. We won, but we didn't cover that day. A friend of mine later told me that those Vegas guys give a different team to every other caller. I haven't seeby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Can't argue with those stats - 3 years ago
Yeah, the stats speak for themselves. But still I can't help but wonder why McVay has gotten cute in the last minutes of the two road games this year. Especially yesterday's game, when we were getting the ball to open the second half.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay 15-3 on the road (16-3 including playoffs) - 3 years ago
Also 9-0 against AFC, 9-1 including playoffs He made some headscratching calls tonight. But he got the win, again. Wonder how 15-3 compares with other coaches?by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Which of these two blowouts - 3 years ago
were you most disappointed in that the Rams let the other team make it respectable late? 1980: Rams 38, Cowboys 0 (final score 38-14) 2000: Rams 49, Vikings 17 (final score 49-37) Tough call for me. Those two teams left scars on me in my youth. Tried to think of another game like these two, especially a Niners game, but couldn't think of one.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: 20 years ago... - 3 years ago
Kind of ironic that McVay has made sitting all starters in the preseason a Rams thing. When the Rams are the poster boys for a team that overcame a devastating preseason injury.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Best preseason moment? - 3 years ago
Mine was after this win over Dallas. Early 80s, I think.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Fun but unlikely Rams scenarios for 2019 - 3 years ago
Rams offense doesn't make a first down all year, but they go for it on fourth down every single time. Consequently, Johnny Hekker becomes the first punter to lead the league in rushing, passing, and touchdowns.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

Pick five games this year you'd like to win most - 3 years ago
Obviously division games are the most important, but what five games would satisfy your fanhood the most? I'd go with 1) Carolina (used to work for them for seven years), 2) Atlanta, 3) Seattle, 4) Chicago and 5) Dallas. Yes, I left off New Orleans. We beat them when it counted and we will again. The other games are more important to me.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
History of our most hated opponent - 3 years ago
See if you agree with me on this. I only go back to 1973 as a fan, so the years before that are a guess on my part... Late 60s....Baltimore Colts Early 70s...San Francisco 49ers 1973 to 1980....alternate between Vikings and Cowboys 1981 to 2017...San Francisco 49ers 2018....New England Patriotsby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: Ranking the 32 team NFL helmets from worst to best - 3 years ago
Ravens helmet is horrible. Why not just have a white silhouette of Edgar Allen Poe inside a purple circle on a black helmet? IMHO, the only helmet designs worth a damn are the Rams, Vikings, Chiefs, Chargers, Seahawks (although the original was fine), Colts, Dolphins, Cowboys, Eagles, Redskins, Steelers, and Bengals. Boring designs that should never change....Packers, 49ers, Saints, Giantby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

3 players you hated the most, past or present - 3 years ago
1. Roger Staubach. So glad his last game was a loss to us. One where he played miserably. 2. Tom Brady. Wish WE were the team that was 2-0 against him in Super Bowls 3. Fran Tarkenton. Wanted so badly to see him get trucked while scrambling.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: Never happened to me... - 3 years ago
Well I stayed with them through the 90s and the post-Martz era, so I probably would have stayed with them then, too. But the playoff pain was real in the 70s. Especially growing up around Cowboys fans.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Was watching the 1979 NFC Title. What IF the Bucs had won.... - 3 years ago
Steelers by three touchdowns at least. And I would have seriously thought about quitting the Rams. After the home loss to Bob Lee and the Vikings in 77, then a 28-0 loss to the Cowboys in 78, losing a second time to Tampa Bay that season would have sent me over the edge.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Your three favorite non-playoff wins - 3 years ago
What were they? Mine were... 1. Beating Dallas on MNF in 1980 38-14. Being up 38-0 and hearing Frank Gifford say "if you're just tuning in, this really is happening to the Dallas Cowboys" was an awesome feeling. Of course, two weeks later we lost at Dallas in the playoffs, but for one night this was the best feeling ever. 2. Beating New Orleans in the Flipper Anderson game (somby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
