Amen theyve got a totally new D who knows if they can even gel yet. Good point that everybody does good in practice but its got to translate onto the field on sunday. I still think they pimpslap the Broncos.

Well, they sure didn't pimpslap us did they when they only converted 2 of their 3rd and shorts and couldn't score a single TD, but when a team gives you 5 turnovers and forgets how to tackle a few times it is hard to lose, isn't it? I'd worry about the Broncos getting the 3 sacks too. Take away a few plays where the Broncos totally screwed up and gave it to them the Rams were going nowhere fast. In a division with the Seahawks and Cardinals I would be very worried. In this case it seems as if the preseason was a pretty good indicator of what to expect the rest of the year. After that many trips into the red zone (6 wasn't it?) with no TDs it doesn't look good, even if it was against a normally exceptional defense.

Dude talk about a homer, we hardly gave them all those turnovers they earned em with all that pressure and Witherspoon tipping that last one. Give em a little credit. we'll be ok though, lost opening day last year too. Rams are better a little more tuning up may have helped offense though.
