Dang. Except for a small part of my heart that feels sorry for the NY Giants (we were 4-12 just last year Rams fans) this game has been a beautiful thing to watch. One explosive play after another… Watkins, Gurley, Woods. Dang. The game isn’t even over… well when the 3rd quarter ends and you’re up 48-10, the game is over. Right now most of the Rams starters are watching the game from the sidelines. Major contributors to this soon to be victory?
- A solid performance by the front lines on both sides of the ball. Eli Manning was sacked twice while Jared Goff stayed upright.
- A very calm and cool Rams QB Jared Goff who tossed 4 TD passes and had a QB rating of 146.8.
- Diverse offensive play calling and a generous distribution of passing targets. 5 Rams receivers racked in over 40 yards in receptions (Woods, Watkins, Everett, Kupp, and Gurley).
- Another great performance by Todd Gurley. Once again he earned over 100 yards in all purpose yards.
- And if we’re really honest, the Giants definitely contributed to their own loss. Between turnovers and blown coverages… they were their own worse enemy today.
At 6-2 the battle is on to hang onto the NFC West’s top position. Next week the Rams take on a struggling Houston Texans who drop to 3-5 today after a heart breaking loss to a bad Colts team. Next week’s game is at home Rams fan. Let’s go Rams!!!
Final Score Rams 51, Giants 17
