Been offered a trade in fantasy by Bigrunningback.

I get - Bradshaw, Mike Thomas and Jerome Simpson

he get's - Jacobs, Sidney Rice and Michael Jenkins

I like Bradshaw, but Jacobs get's alot of goal line. Rice is also a good fantasy performer and will do better than Mike Thomas when he returns as JAgs have no QB, so basically Jenkins against Simpson. I'm guessing he's a jacobs fan judging by team name. Gonna accept it.

Feels great to get a W. Great from mid second quarter onwards. Alot of things to be excited about if you're a Rams fan, still need a No 1 reciever and more help at CB. That King was bizz. They shown the schedule for the rams...Ouch!

I said elsewhere that the game was there for the taking last night. The difference between the two teams was that one had the experience and composure to take their chances. We definitely have the ability to win games, just lack consistency and a bit of ruthlessness. The red zone efficiency absolutely killed us.

For me the Rams lost the game. Too many good positions and not enough points early on. The latteral to Caddy was the killer and Bradford was dominating it upto then. After that play Eli seemed to just grow with confidence and what about that catch from Hickson just before the half! Im surprised I didnt wake the house up

Gonna be close the nfc playoff race. I doubt we will factor. Too many injuries to deal with.

Looking at the 2nd half of the schedule I think that if we can get to the Wembley game at .500 we will have a chance. Ill be more confident if we can beat ATL this weekend though....

Did I ever mention how much I dislike ATL?

A backup running back and a 2nd rate WR for MJD? C'mon man!

Gutted that we've lost Collins for the year. He's a beast, the third best safety in the league. One of 2 things will happen now. Burnett will move from SS to FS (Collins' spot) and Charlie Peprah will play SS which he did excellently last year while Burnett was out injured. The other option would be to slide Woodson to FS and have starting CB's of Tramon Williams and Sam Shields which would leave us thin at CB.

I fancy we'll go with option 1, but also bring in Darren Sharper (or similar) to act as cover.
