Peripatetic Rams Week

[Bossman641]

Why are we on CBS this week when we're playing another nfc team?

Not that I'm complaining, just weird

I noticed that as well. Apparently it's part of the new TV deal somehow, cross-flexing is what they call it.

Look on the brightside: no Buck and Aikman.

Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts. Not too shabby.

I am hopeful it will be on, but I also think this will be a very tough game. Man, that offensive line better be better protecting Aaron Rodgers this week.

My guess is that Adams and Burnett will be out again, and probably next week as well. Bulaga could be in if his knee hasn't swollen up too much and if he's knocked enough rust off.

Jake Ryan will be missed on ST again.

Dan Fouts is fantastic. Nobody better, IMO.

You got it CC.

Dan gives great football insights without the stupid hyped bullshit.

How in the F Buck and Aikman got to be the #1 team is beyond me.

Joe of course used his father's great name to get into the business. He had a lot more media contacts when he was still shitting his diapers than everybody on this board put together.

But how they got to be the number one team, I dunno. Maybe, I think, insight and information is just not valued.

I remember a game Fouts did back on MNF. There was a play where a big blitz was picked up and the QB threw a crossing route pass that went for huge yards. Immediately after the play, he said he wanted to show the OL because they made the play. He had the film come up from the OL and showed how the RB picked up the blitzing LB and the OL handled the rush (there were some stunts) and everyone just did their job. He acknowledged the proper read by the QB and great run after the catch but said that the whole play was because of the pass protection and did 90% of his analysis from that. THAT was brilliant. Didn't do the whole Gruden over the top hype crap about a "brilliant QB" or "phenominal WR" who are "at the top of their game". He simply just analyzed.

McCarthy: So far so good with Bulaga. Translation: Sounds like he'll be starting Sunday. Doesn't sound good for Burnett and Adams. #Packers

Unless you live in the one county in Michigan that is getting Browns-Ravens, you have a good shot.

Fouts called the Instant Replay game (Majkowski to Sharpe), and got the call right before anyone else.

Gosh I wonder why Oregon got Buffalo at Tennessee??



It's all about the QB....

Great example, CheeseCraig.

Fouts analyzes, Gruden analizes.
