Week 12: Official Rams @ Broncos Game Discussion Thread

[codeman123]

Goldberg has been absolutely awful the past few weeks. He was such a good blocker for us last year when he stepped in to play almost every position. Greco must have horrible practice habits or no understanding of the playbook because he is really physical and adds a dimension to the run game that we need. All of Jackson's long runs have been with Greco in. I just don't get it.

WOW, what a game, tried to lose it,but the defense stepped up and made the plays at the end, hugh win,hello to first place,sounds good

You guys have no idea what you are talking about! Of course you run on 3rd and 4. You take off 40 seconds off the clock. If you pass and its incomplete you stop the clock and they have full 2 minutes to march down the field.

Again you totally run on 3rd and 4th and attempt to pin them down with 1:20 left. Of course they partially blocked the punt but you cant think that will happen every time, our punt unit was pretty bad all day for some reason.

Normally you're right, but when your run game is as anemic as it was today, and your defense is surrendering scores as swiftly as the Rams' defense was at this point, conventional wisdom goes out of the window in favor of something that can get a first down. It doesn't matter if the Rams take 40 seconds off the clock if Denver can score in a minute.

Too close for comfort. Great job by Laurinitus and Long on the last drive.

I agree you have to give it to Jackson on 3rd and 4. Bradford didnt hit his previous 3rd down conversion attempt and in that situation you gotta give it to your most trusted offensive player. Of course it didnt work out but I wouldnt change the decision that was made.
