Haven't seen the Rams play in a couple years. Guess I will tune them in this year.

Definitely need to. Great RB, solid QB, amazing defense. They aren't as fun as 'The Greatest Show on Turf' but that was one of my favorite teams to watch in the day. Football has gotten so sloppy and penalized that it's good to see great talent playing well.

Jozu Jozu , I know we both can't wait for the Rams to play the Niners this year. Seriously, it should be some good football.

I also welcome the two games against the niners. I'd like to slap them around after they beat our second string last year.

Rams should absolutely crush the 49ers. You never know with divisional teams though.

The Packers are half the reason bitch ass rulings like that even happen, tho. Aaron Rodgers' karma fucked the team, imo.

Two games and 3 on IR, with Freeman out at least 2-3 weeks and now two DE's are with groin injuries woot go Falcons. Sigh nothing ever works out for any team in the state of Ga. Hey we have that one Braves world series win and the pro Lacrosse team won it all last year lulz. Yes this is how sad sports is in the state of Ga.

This BS started a while back with fuckin Pey Pey Manning. The NFL couldn't have their golden child off television. He was untouchable before these rules became official.

Uh...Tom Brady having words with the ref after every hit he takes also should get fair share of the credit, too.

Actually the owners are to blame. They are pushing rules that give offense greater and greater importance. This further cements the QB as the most important position in sports which drives up their value and cost. This in turn pushes the NFL/owners to make rules to protect their investment. Then the cycle goes on and on. Only way this changes is if the QB gets so expensive its just not feasible anymore and defensive rules get adjustments.

The owners aren't controlling the levers here.

Fans like big offense. Three yards and a cloud of dust doesn't sell in 2018. The market is clamoring for a "more exciting" game, with big throws and high scores.

Owners are just trying to do what the fans want. It's clear now in 2018 they just have no idea how to make that happen.

You tell me the owners are not moving the levers when they clearly are as they literally make these rules. Then proceed to give me the reasons the owners are doing exactly what I said they were. Thanks for the recap Bucky.

What rule change are you referring to? Or is this just a salty Pats fan thing?

I stand by my previous posts on Gruden. 9 more years, Oakland/Vegas fans!

As a Bucs fan I saw that shit coming a thousand miles away. Gruden trading away all the defensive talent and the offense goes downhill immediately? Gee that sounds familiar.
