A teaser stat for this week's game before my full return tomorrow...

**AvengerRam** · -09-13-2012

Hey gang!

I've been enjoying my brief hiatus, and was truly touched by the overwhelming response to my departure (I miss you too, guys!).

Before I make my full return to the forums tomorrow, I thought I'd present a quick stat that might provide a glimmer of hope for the Rams battered O line this week.

Last year, when the Rams played the Redskins, they gave up 7 sacks.

Later in the season, the Redskins played the New York Jets, with their Brian Schottenheimer designed offense, and Wayne Hunter at RT.

Zero sacks.

The moral of the story (and I think Rambos has already made this point well in another thread): on a given Sunday (or two), weaknesses can be covered up with the right schemes.

See you tomorrow when I post Av's "Looking West" for Week 2!

Maybe we can get some of those giant tarps the Jags use to cover empty seats on game day?

After seeing the gameplan Fisher put together for our game against the Lions, I have the utmost confidence that he'll come up with another beauty!

I missed that but it sounds really bad lol.

Ticket sale for this Rams game are going really good. I fear the stadium will be full of RG3 fans. Can anyone tell me this is not the case? Are local Rams fans buying these tickets?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news... but I think it counts as you being back when you actually post on the forum you said you would avoid for a certain period.

I am going to trust in Jeff Fisher, if he is able to almost have Stafford in tears and completely rattled I think he might be able to do the same to a ROOKIE.
