PLEASE NFL! GET US SOME REAL REFEREES!! PLEASE NOW!!

If it wasn't for the refs, we would have lost by more.

Yeah the Rams played chippy and dirty, especially second half. You think the Steelers, Ravens, Eagles and Giants are going to play classy against us? Please. If we're going to be a good team, we're going to have to learn to deal with it, without bone-head mistakes like Morgan's.

Honestly, that's really understating it in my opinion. I felt like a flag could/should have been called for every couple plays. I wouldn't be as annoyed at the loss had they not acted like total jackasses. I mean even the Ravens who seem notorious for this kind of garbage, acted like Mr. Rogers compared to the Rams today.

I agree. I just think it's something a good team has to handle themselves sometimes. Whether it's getting more fired up and dominating, or a little policing of our own like Portis drilling a DL on pass pro after they cheapshot our OL. Or any other number of ways without making an obvious personal foul.

Sam destroyed us today

This game was fueled by the RGIII trade and a firey coach. Advantage, STL.

It's funny how a lot of fans are quickly overreacting on emotions to Josh Morgan's mistake because basically his mistake was quickly overreacting on emotions.

Agreed. Sports are games of emotion at times. Just think how hyped up we get as spectators.

The funny thing too was that I was pissed off as much as everyone else, but Josh Morgan makes this team better and on top of that -- he seems amped up as much as everyone else (including fans). I can't hate him when I see that in a player.

Hell, you should have been in the game day thread earlier...got heated. I think Matty had to send a couple of them to the showers early. EMOTIONS MAN!!! THEY RULE ME!

Funny thing though about Griffin is he didn't have his best day today and we still put up 28 points, 21 on offense. Usually on a day like today assuming we got all the same chances the score would have been 13 to 31. I base this on no deep pass to Hank and certainly no red zone conversions with the old guard.

Ha ha, to true. I think to many fans bought in to much to the good feelings and media attention from last week. Personally I spent all last week thinking to myself that it they gave us way to much respect. We did good but it was way to much for the first game of the season.

Griffin is definitely ahead of schedule but we have to remember he's still a rookie and he still has a bit of a ways to go before he takes that next step as a passer. Sad thing though is he's already a better passer then any QB we've had since Brad Johnson.

Were you like me and thought if we were going to lose this game it was going to be something like 17-14?

Our defense is supposed to be the strength and they were missing 2-3 starters! I mean WTF.

Agreed. We're scoring TDs now and not settling for field goals. Every win is hard to come by. The Browns put up a good fight, the Pats went down to the Cards, the Giants were on the ropes and, of course, the uber talented Cowboys only scored 7 in a loss to the Seahawks.

1-1 after 2 road games to the Saints and Rams is nothing to be ashamed of. We're averaging 35 a game and are plus 5 in turnovers. Now let's take care of business against the Bungles.

Maybe the Rams aren't half bad? Just tossing that out there.
