HA! I'm not a hater C-mob! I got to pick someone to lose... My rankings are based of personnel grouping. If I feel that the talent is there, i reward a check mark.

Nice vid once again Em, though I, like most others here have to disagree with your prediction :) keep up the good work man.

I see this as a very close game and Home Field being the difference.

Well in my opinion, Amendolla is obviously our go to guy. Bradfords blanket and rightfully so. Danny boy is a great slot wr. And as our other wr's emerge over time, he will become even more productive since he wont be zoned in on by defenses.

Gibson has been inconsistent but is still our 2nd best receiver thus far and is deserving of it considering how the rest have performed/been involved.

Quick will get worked in more and more as the season goes along, i know lots of people are upset we took him #33 overall and don't have him starting but i have no problem with that. Although he had only one catch, his 19 yard catch for the 1st down last week against the seahawks was beautiful in my eyes, not because he got his first catch, but just by how fluid his body was on his route, like he had been doing it for years. Even though it wasn't anything big, it showed me a glimpse of why Fishead selected him. Maybe im alone on that but thats my opinion on it.

Givens is our true deep threat, and has been doing a great job of it. The more time bradford and him get to work on getting on the same page, the more deep throws will be thrown/caught. almost every game so far he's been targeted deep 1-2 times deep.

Pettis will work his way more into the mix, he's a solid #3 in my eyes.

Smith has been average, nothing spectacular, but does bring some veteren leadership to the position.

I can see the rams using a 1st rounder on a wr next year, maybe pair him up with quick on the outside. I can see Smith being gone next year to make room also.

Good assessment! Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked to see that happen either.. this year looks like it could be another solid group of guys coming out

I think it may have been last season...toward the end of last year I think. Just so far this year, I haven't liked the matchups going into the games so far. Still think the team is solid however.

EmDiggy- I'm not sure if I agree with some strengths and weaknesses regarding the Rams D that you point out. I don't believe the Rams have proven that they can stop the run. In fact, they have greatly struggled at times to stop the run, especially against the Seahawks. The Rams strength on defense has been pass defense and creating turnovers through interceptions.

I think the Cardinals can gain some yards on the ground because I would bet the defense is going to concentrate on shutting down the passing game. If Kevin Kolb can be successful, the Cardinals will win. In addition, the Rams offensive line is in terrible shape. I don't know how many jail breaks I saw last Sunday, but there were several. The Rams have failed to score an offensive touchdown since Washington (mostly due to offensive line).

If its a low scoring game, the Rams will win because they enter field goal range near mid-field with Greg The Leg.
