Yes, on to St Louis....
What I find most annoying about the Rams isn't their players. It isn't their coach. It isn't the fact their SB winning QB forced his theology down our throats. No, I actually hate the Rams, this version, because of how much respect Seattle bloggers and twitperts give them.
The Rams are what would happen if draft experts built a team, IMO. What I see is a collection of talent, a collection of great talent, built without any plan in place. Draft and measurable nerds will "ooh and ahh" over a defensive line DEEP with passrushers, with little thought to the fact in the NFCW passrushers is the last thing you need. All that's seen is the awesome "top 10" measurable in their DL, and not the fact the Rams have never been able to stop the Seahawks run game with the OL at full strength. Offensively they have no identity. Whatever soul they have is now in the Atlanta back field. But, hey, they have Bradford....a talented true #1 pick, soo, yeah! "Tavon Austin though!"...blech.
The Rams aren't a team. The Rams are what would happen if an asshole who scours NCAA tape all day got to draft off his big board.
This is kind of rambling and noncoherent, because my hate over the Rams love is strong. For three years anyone selling themselves as a "knowledgeable Seahawks fan" has been spewing "look out for the Rams in '14 (or '12, '13)", and for three years they've been wrong.
So please, please, please Seahawks defeat the Rams. A victory against St Louis is a victory against the wannabe Mel Kipers, obesity and methamphetamine use.
XOXO
