Go Birds!

Not the start I wanted
Maybe that just changed w the fumble

 

[Tom McAndrew]

fumble by the Rams, recovered by the Birds, but ruled down.

Replay seems to show it was a fumble.

 

[Ludd]

Not sure how they didn’t call that a fumble from the initial hit….it seemed pretty obvious.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

After review, it's ruled a fumble and recovered by the Birds

Birds take over on their own 17

 

[Tom McAndrew]

a 1st down to Goedert, then back to back completions to AJ Brown, and the Birds are to the Rams' 35

 

[Tom McAndrew]

great drive by the Birds, but they bog down when they are 1st and goal. 2 runs and a shovel pass only get them to the 3.

Elliott with a 21-yard FG, makes it 3-0, Birds, with 5:13 left in the 1st qtr.

 

[s1uggo72]

Got Jake going early

 

[Ludd]

Ended in a field goal, but it was kind of a free drive due to the turnover.

 

[s1uggo72]

great drive by the Birds, but they bog down when they are 1st and goal. 2 runs and a shovel pass only get them to the 3.

Elliott with a 21-yard FG, make sit 3-0, Birds, with 5:13 left in the 1st qtr.

Seems to me they are better scoring from 30 yds out then 1st and goal from about anywhere

 

[Tom McAndrew]

can't give Stafford that much time. The matchup that concerned me the most in this game was whether the Birds could get pressure on Stafford from their DL

[Ludd]

Apparently the Eagles defense decided to take the night off.

 

[s1uggo72]

Big play killing the Eagles. He left his zone on the big play to the motion man. Now PI in the end zone. SMH

 

[Tom McAndrew]

PI against Slay in the endzone. The Rams score on a run after that.

With the PAT, it's 7-3, Rams, with 1:02 left in the 1st qtr

 

[s1uggo72]

That’s because Big Play was out of position

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[BobPSU92]

“Jahan Dotson, six one zero.”

For f*ck’s sake.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Ludd]

Maybe the defense will show up this drive.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3rd & 5, and Hurts is sacked. I'm not sure what Hurts was looking for, but Johnny Wilson was wide open on a crossing pattern.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Maybe the defense will show up this drive.

well done! Birds' D with a nice series

 

[s1uggo72]

Got hit in the nutz

 

[Tom McAndrew]

A.J. Brown!!!

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Got hit in the nutz

It’s amazing how few players wear protective cups these days.

 

[s1uggo72]

Good needed more room to work

It’s amazing how few players wear protective cups these days.

not really slows you down

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds bog down in the red zone (again), and a 31-yard FG by Elliot makes it 7-6, Rams, with 6:17 (I think that's it) left in the 2nd qtr

 

[Ludd]

Red zone offense is looking pretty suspect tonight.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Tom McAndrew]

This doesn't happen to Mailota too often

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Best series by the Birds' D so far. Graham with a sack on 3rd down to end the series

 

[s1uggo72]

This doesn't happen to Mailota too often

I think the guy was off sides w a running start

 

[NittPicker]

Nice series by the D. Now set up for the offense to burn off the rest of the clock and score just before the half. Then get the ball back to start the third. All in a perfect world.

 

[Ludd]

Put it in the end zone this time!
