Patrick Crayton?I am VERY hopeful that the young rams will suffer from the same malais that got the 2007 Cowboys.
I just spoke to an odds maker and he advised me "Dallas is getting slaughtered." I'm trying to wonder "what do these people know that we don't know?"
"The Rams have yet to win a postseason game under coach Sean McVay's leadership, but based on the opening betting lines from Las Vegas that could be about to change. The opening betting line had the gave the Rams a seven-point spread with an over/under of 49 points, while SportsLine had the home team coming away with a 30-21 win."
I'm not disagreeing with your premise, but as a degenerate who follows such things the line is on average more accurate than any of the blowhards who predict these games for any of the outlets I've seen.The betting line is about getting both sides of the wager to bet equal money. Betting lines are in reality not very accurate to outcomes.
You're entirely right about all that; and if we lose, we'll undoubtedly look back at that checklist and be able to check 4 or 5 of those items as why we lost.
I do think the last point in your previous post about the stingy defense is one that shouldn't be buried. Goff has cooled off, and defense tends to take more precedence in the postseason than even the regular season. And while the Rams create turnovers, they're poor against the run -- our biggest strength offensively.
There's one blueprint for us to win this game. Dominate the ground game, control time of possession, and limit the Rams' scoring opportunities as best we can. Fail to do any of those three things, and it's difficult to imagine how we survive.
Patrick Crayton?
I don’t get how they are coming up with the Rams being favored by 7.
The matchups favor us enough that even if you really liked the Rams I would think it would be no more then 3.5.
If we show up and run all over them then they don’t have a very good chance of beating us.
Also, how can they trust Goff against our pass rush?
Not gonna happen, they know what we know (nothing)..lolI just spoke to an odds maker and he advised me "Dallas is getting slaughtered." I'm trying to wonder "what do these people know that we don't know?"

We very well may not.We very well may.
What “odds maker”?I just spoke to an odds maker and he advised me "Dallas is getting slaughtered." I'm trying to wonder "what do these people know that we don't know?"

I keep hearing this about the Rams. And I heard this re the Saints. And I heard we'd lose to the Seahawks.I just spoke to an odds maker and he advised me "Dallas is getting slaughtered." I'm trying to wonder "what do these people know that we don't know?"
