St. Louis Rams - Thoughts, Reflections, I Told You So's

Vick still says some dumb shtein. 

thanks for the 411

Anytime.   Point is its largely irrelevant and still preferable to what we've been dealing with the last decade.

yeah i wasn't making a big deal out of it. i love watching the guy play. just saying he's still the same dummy we all hated for years. he's just better at hiding it.

Bartell has two cracks in his neck and is done for the season
Amendola dislocated his elbow and could be done for the season
x-rays on Bradford's finger were negative but he might have nerve damage
Jackson is out for next week already
Jason Smith has a high ankle sprain


On the Eagles side, somebody probably got rug burn on their arm or something

OL did get better, but the Rams also stopped blitzing after Vick beat them a few times.  I focused on Herremans a few times and he really did well.

You could see what they liked in Kelce on that one toss sweep where he got out and ahead of the play and took out a linebacker.

Kelce and Page were the unsung heroes of the game. Kelce had a rough start but he played well at center and pulled well. Page had the deep ball covered for the most part and played over the top well.

actually heard the vick comment and if you listen really close and the way he says it you can tell that he doesnt know what lights out means

he thinks lights out is to play carefree with abandon not that he played awesome....so hes probably dumber than any of us even thought but at least hes not a full of himself prick

I don't want to see Vick making throws off his back foot like the TD to Pimp. He connected, yes, but more times than not that pass will be picked off. I think he got lucky.

lol....he didnt do it just because he felt like it....there was a jailbreak on the play and he was under pressure....

and there was nothing lucky about that throw...the way he finessed it to a spot where he knew pimp was headed as opposed to trying to use his arm strength to fire it to pimp was a thing of absolute beauty

Finessed? He did exactly what a qb is not supposed to do, throwing off his back foot while moving sideways. But, Pimp was wide open with a hand up slanting across the middle. Vick could see there was no way he'd get picked. I just don't like seeing that stuff, he made a big play this time, but if it happens against Green Bays D in the playoffs it's that kind of floating pass that can be picked. The kind we'd be bitching about the whole summer.

[ice grillin you]

ok

[PhillyPhreak54]

Ok

so if he knows there is open field ahead of him and there is no way its picked why do you have beef with him lofting it in there?

Because if he plants his feet and makes a textbook throw then he's a dead man because a Ram was three inches from murdering him.

[ice grillin you]

he couldnt have made a classic throw because pimp wasnt open when he threw the ball...thats what made the throw so sick...pimp was coming back across the end zone right to left and vick floated it to a spot that he knew pimp would get to and a defender wouldnt

[shorebird]

Pimp was wide open with his hand up slanting across the middle, he wasn't coming back across the end zone, he never went right to start with.

Because I don't want him getting comfortable doing it. I don't know, it was a hell of a play that most qb's wouldn't be able to make. Farg it.

[ice grillin you]

yeah who would want to get comfortable with him throwing awesome touchdown passes

[shorebird]

Ha! but what happens when that floater he tosses up gets picked?

[ice grillin you]

you are acting like he blindly tossed a ball up for grabs....he floated a ball perfectly to a spot where only pimp could get it because thats what he had to do

[Sgt PSN]

Usually the oppssing offense comes on the field.
