I just made my Super Bowl prediction to a gambling buddy of mine. Had a strong, unexplainable vibe last year that the Eagles were going to win it. Had the same vibe last night about the.....
CHICAGO BEARS. Bank it.
I would not be surprised one bit.
Would also not be surprised to see the Rams lose of their last two games and go down on wild card weekend.
Even if they do get the bye or survive one playoff game...The Rams will not make the Super Bowl. Bank that.

Sometimes I think we over-analyze this league. 99% of the answers to any questions about what's going on and why are related to injuries. "Next man up" might be the dumbest lie in all of sports.
He looked and was just just fine on his TD run at the beginning of the game. EXPLODED through the hole and would have none of the defenders efforts. Nothing at all wrong with him in the first half.
You might have missed it while working ...He did get hurt in the third qtr and sat out a series but came back. Something similar happened against the Chiefs. I will have to watch the second half again to see if I see what you saw but I dont remember it all and Im pretty keyed oin to what is happening... Time will tell how serious the 2nd half injury really was.

It goes back to the MNF shoutout with KC. A good buddy of mine was saying that the Rams personnel kept telling the camera guys to stay away from Gurley as he was being massaged in the thigh area. So it was never shown on TV. There’s a lot of crap happening in the sidelines that we never know.
It looks to me that he may have a hamstring issue for the past few weeks and over the weekend his knee was wrapped up. I don’t think he’s 100% either, he’s not as explosive but the bigger question for Rams fans is what the hell is going on with that D?
To me there is no dominant team this year. Every team had weaknesses and can lay an egg. Personally I think it is going to be one exciting play off season this year and I can see anyone winning it and won't be surprised when certain teams lose. I'm still banking on Philly taking one of the wildcards. I would love to see them make a run without Wentz, that would make an interesting off season.

Foles could get hot again and lead them into the playoffs and he would still not unseat Wentz. He would definitely get paid this off season by someone though. He will either way but Wentz is the franchise. Not saying knucklehead sports radio callers won’t make ridiculous comments...hell they already are...and stir the pot.

Probably why I'm really back into NFL football this year. I'm always glued to the TV when the Bears, Chiefs, Rams, Saints and a few other teams are playing. There has been many exciting games this season and I have no idea who's going to make it to the Super Bowl.

Time is not telling a very happy story if you are a Ram fan...Game time decision... That third qtr injury worse than I thought for sure.
Without Gurley there is NO offense. It all begins with him as a threat. There is NO threat if you dont run it.
Great article on how to stop the Rams. Basically ignore the play action. A horrible trend the Lions started in what was Goffs worst game of the season at the time. Who would have thought he could get even worse?
Hahahahaha. NFL officiating is puke worthy. The crew in Philly should be escorted from the grounds at halftime and replaced. I can’t express how disappointed I am at this league.
Grow some balls and make it stop. You can act like men or ball licking cowards . Its up to you. I know if we say enough. They will stop with this garbage.
Fantastic game in SEA. Hawks are officially in the dance with a gritty win against KC. Not many gave them a chance with a potent offense like the Chiefs against a weakened secondary SEA unit due to injuries. Baldwin and Wilson were huge so was the D not to mention the solid running game.
P. Mahomes was money too, I really enjoy watching this guy strutt his stuff, his team just felt short to a more determined Seahawks team after that OT stinker vs the 49’ers last weekend.
Whether it’s the Bears or Cowboys, this team is peaking at the right time.
I don't like Russell Wilson at all, but his deep passes sure are fun to watch. Seattle at home is dangerous. How the F do they play like that one week, but lose to the Niners the week prior? Just completely looking past them, trap game style? I don't think they get by the Bears or Saints (in NOLA), but they can do some damage to everybody else in the NFC for sure.
I love how for three months of the 2018 season, offenses are otherworldly. Then, the past 4 weeks, they've fallen off at a level that hasn't been seen in 25 years and defenses are starting to rise up again.

Dec/Jan football is incredible.
Even though its bad for the Rams, I prefer the NFL like this. Running the ball and defense.
Yes! dec/ Jan football is incredible and makes me even crazier.
