    Week Three Other Games Thread

    It's an exciting game to start off Week three tonight with the Rams visiting the 49ers. Tickets are selling for the astronomical price of $14 - apparently that's less than the price of two pretzels!

    There will be a lot of fans disguised as empty seats to be sure, even though hosting a Thursday night game is the surest generic bet for a win (against the spread!) there can be in the NFL! At least Vegas still cares who wins.

    Enjoy!

      Whoops. Yeah the home team has quite an historical advantage (against the spread) although I guess it's gotten a little better recently. At one point is was as unlikely for a road team to (cover) on Thursday as it was for any team to (cover) at Seattle's new stadium. (I think that's right; I'm going off memory).

      Point spreads are for entertainment purposes and gentlemen's bets only. The author does not endorse gambling.

        LA RAMS @ San Fran and the first game scheduled for Week 3:

        This is turning out to be a fun game to watch and for a Thursday Night Game that is saying a lot.

        Jared Goff is doing excellent so far in this game 19/24 for 251 Yards and 1 TD; and working very well with former Buffalo Bills WR's Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods.

        With 2:04 remaining in the 3rd Qtr.These WR's have a combined 10 catches for 200 yards.

        RAMS RB Todd Gurley is a force again tonight with 3 TD's ( 2 Rushing and 1 Receiving ). Gurley just misses on another Rushing and well...just now, just missed again and again ! Give that man the ball once more...No! It was a pass on 3rd down and Sammy Watkins gets a TD pass.

        The RAMS made two smart moves there ! Getting Watkins and Woods. That is somehow really unbelievable that their both now away from Buffalo and with the same Team again.

        The score is very late in the 3rd Qtr. 34-20 LA RAMS.

              Lots of 'O' in this game. Back to a one possession game.

              RAMS 41-33 and 5:08 remains in the 4th Qtr and on the Kick the ball is turned over by the RAMS.

              Hold onto your hats.

                41-39 RAMS after a failed 2 Pt. attempt...and then the 49ers get the onside kick and it's their ball.

                The RAMS are shaking now ! What a wild game.

                At the 2 Minute Warning and the ball is at midfield (49ers ball).

                  On 4th and 20 Aaron Donald makes what appears to be the game saver SACK for the RAMS.

                  A wild wild game ! 819 and counting... Total Yards of 'O'.

                  It's in the books...41-39 RAMS !

                    That game was worth at least three pretzels

                        I certainly can't spare any.

                          Did anyone actually watch the game? Those Rams unis are not easy on the eyes. Last time I watched a Rams night game was, I think, 1980 or something like that. The year they stomped Dallas with Jewrel (sp?) Thomas breaking off a couple of big runs. Since then the Rams have been a Sunday 1:00 team.

                            There were some classic Rams-Niners games on MNF back in the mid-late 80s too. Chrissy Everette v. Joe Montana. I can't remember which game, but a Rams receiver had around 200 yards in one game...

                              Its terrible, especially since they went back to white and blue uni/helmet. Those are fantastic uniforms and the helmet is one of my favorites.
                              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
