The Los Angeles Rams will be taking on Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals without Aaron Donald who retired during the offseason. Murray is excited to not have to worry about Donald, and pays big respect to AD by calling him the best he’s ever seen. Murray still respects the Rams, their coaching and the defense but the fact is AD won’t be there on Sunday and that is one less thing for Arizona and their quarterback to worry about.

“He’s in my eyes the best of all time, so I’m definitely glad that he’s not going to be out there on Sunday for sure,” Murray said.
It remains to be seen if Donald’s absence will change a rivalry that’s become very lopsided in recent seasons.
The Cardinals (0-1) host the Rams (0-1) in a matchup of NFC West rivals on Sunday. Los Angeles has won 13 of the past 15 in the series, and nine straight on the road at State Farm Stadium.”
Despite depleted offensive line, Brian Baldinger loves LA Rams offensive options (ramblinfan)
“Is there such a thing as a ‘good’ loss? Premier NFL Insider and analyst Brian Baldinger seems to think so. Despite both Joe Noteboom and AJ Arcuri struggling throughout the game, the Rams’ offense seemed to maintain positive momentum throughout the game. So how did they do it?
Baldy’s breakdowns reveals Rams innovative offense
The Rams offensive line for Week 1 was, at best, a patchwork of players thrown onto the field together with little reps of competing as one unit. And it got progressively worse once starting offensive linemen began to fall to injuries. We will cover the offensive line transformation throughout the game, but the focus in this article is how that lack of familiarity and continuity left the offensive linemen completely vulnerable to stunts and blitzes.”
Rams News: Injury Report Unveils Growing Concerns Over Offensive Line Stability (athlonsports)
“Center Steve Avila’s MCL sprain, which he sustained in the season opener against the Detroit Lions, has placed him on Injured Reserve for at least four weeks. His absence creates a substantial gap in the team’s offensive front, which is further complicated by the expected multi-week absence of offensive tackle Joe Noteboom due to another ankle injury. Havenstein and Noteboom’s injuries leave the Rams in a precarious position as they prepare for their next matchup.”

Three picks with the spread...who you taking? (By CDNGolfer on Sep 12, 2024)
“Man...shoulda woulda coulda last week. Will Levis cost me $150 with that boneheaded pick 6!
As I stated last week, I bet $20 a week, usually on 3 team parlays.
Pretty straightforward strategy this week, pick on the teams that stunk last week that peeps seem to believe may bounce back. It’s been my experience that teams that get thoroughly outplayed in week one, rarely make quick turnarounds and Vegas is slow to respond with appropriate spreads.
Without further ado;
Jags -3 over the Browns. Watson is terrible, plain and simple.
Chargers -6 over the Panthers. Bosa was terrific last week. The Panthers? Not so much.
Houston -6 over the Bears. With all the hype coming into the season on Williams, it could take Vegas a month to get the Bears spreads close. Williams looked bad in pre season and worse last week.
Who do you like this week?”
