I just heard Chad on his weekly segment on the Afternoon Blitz on Sirius NFL Radio...he said he's licking his chops for this game.  The game tapes reveal the Rams playing too much man to man coverage with only one safety.  He assured the audience that there is no way St. Louis can play that defense all game without the TRIO having a huge day.  He also mentioned that the team had a great week of practice and everyone's in a good mood considering they have nothing to play for.  Since this week is no different than the first 12, we'll just have to wait and see....

Carson had a horrible game.  It happens, it will happen again.  But that's on him.  The bigger problem is the play calling, again, and again, and again.  First drive was over 6 minutes, mixed some run with some pass.  High percentage routes of 6 - 12 yards.  After that, the high percentage plays were gone.  Too many deep balls in bad weather, nothing to the tight end, only a few attempts at a screen pass.  The play calling is a huge problem.  Bob B. trys to outsmart the defense with high-octane plays.  Last year was the same story.  I don't know if they keep a stat for how many 3 & out series there are per season, but it seems like we would lead the league.
