The Rams tried to build/buy a super team; they are sitting at 2-4 and look in complete disarray
JJ McCarthy came in for the Giants down 24 in the 4th quarter and lit up a Saints Defense in prevent and sports media is fawning over his 11-21 243 1/1 performance like he is a Hall of Famer
The Rams fired their last kicker for missing a FG and their new kicker got knocked out of the game trying to make a tackle in the 1st Qtr forcing their Punter to handle kicks
Things I think are Noteworthy
