You're correct, but that doesn't mean the chances are better than 50-50. Vegas has the game as a pick-em.

I'm just saying that if we lose, people will line up to crab about some intangible the team is lacking, but really, this is a road game that we're going to win only about half the time. 3-1 at the bye feels a heck of a lot different than 2-2, so I'm not saying it doesn't matter. I'm just saying we're only kind of good, and kind of good teams don't go on the road and make it look easy except when they play the very worst teams.

The Rams are pretty bad, but they're not one of the five worst teams in football. And they will certainly compete with us at home unless they make all the same mistakes they did last week. In which case, they should fire their coaches.

I'd say they are in the group of Miami, Cincy and Carolina.. They could win at home but they are a 5 win team. I am concerned though because Rexy just makes me nervous man .. I hope we can run it all day and force a couple Tos
