THOUSAND OAKS Bobby Evans Jersey nfl draft , Calif. (AP) —s‘ opening drive until the postgame handshakes, where the Los Angeles Rams cornerback gave one last shove to the Dallas receiver.Peters didn’t win all of his matchups with Cooper. In fact, his unnecessary roughness penalty from his first scrap with Cooper led directly to Dallas’ first touchdown in the clubs’ divisional playoff game Saturday night.But for better or worse, Peters also exemplified his team’s determination not to be pushed around by anyone — and sometimes, they’ll even start the fights.With their 30-22 victory over the Cowboys, the Rams (14-3) are headed to the NFC championship game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday with an incendiary attitude and renewed proof of their toughness on both sides of the ball.“Our sense of focus and the sense of urgency have gone up tremendously,” guard Rodger Saffold said at the team’s training complex Sunday while the Rams waited to find out who they would play.The Rams have built a reputation for cerebral, clever play during two seasons of coach Sean McVay’s influential offensive schemes. But one big difference between last season’s team, which lost its first playoff game, and this season’s NFC championship-bound squad is the Rams’ provocative new defensive players, led by Peters and fellow cornerback Aqib Talib, along with a team-wide embrace of physical, disruptive play.The Rams know they’ll have to be tough again when they visit New Orleans for the third time this season, counting a preseason trip to the Big Easy. Los Angeles took its first loss of the year at the Superdome on Nov. 4, falling 45-35.“I think we match up really well (with the Saints),” Saffold said. “I think we’ll have a better plan against them on the second go-round.”The Rams also will have Talib, who was out with an injury when Los Angeles native Michael Thomas made 12 catches for 211 yards as the Saints ran wild in the Rams’ secondary.“The Saints have a highly controlled game plan,” Rams edge rusher Dante Fowler said. “They’ve got everything down pat Bobby Evans black jersey , and they’re going to execute it. You’ve just got to try your best to stop it. They’ve got great offensive linemen and a Hall of Fame quarterback and a two-headed monster in the backfield, and Michael Thomas is a great receiver. We’ve just got to come with it.”The Rams are respectfully confident heading into the chance to play for a Super Bowl berth — but these Rams also have an attitude, and it’s taking them far.At about the same time Peters and Cooper were shoving each other instead of shaking hands, Talib interrupted Jared Goff’s postgame interview with a joyous expletive on live television.Extracurricular exploits aside, the Rams are in their first NFC title game in 17 years because of their physical attitude in the way they manhandled the Cowboys on both sides of the line. Dallas entered the Coliseum with one of the NFL’s top rushing defenses along with their own powerful rushing offense led by NFL rushing champion Ezekiel Elliott, yet the Rams dominated on the ground.Los Angeles’ rushing offense was historically good, with C.J. Anderson and Todd Gurley both topping 100 yards rushing on the way to a franchise-record 273. Both backs gave the credit to their offensive line, which led the Rams to average a whopping 5.7 yards per carry.The Rams’ defense spent most of the first half on the sideline watching as their offensive line carved chunks out of the Dallas defense. Fowler could only smile when left tackle Andrew Whitworth led the blocking for Gurley’s 35-yard touchdown run.“They played very physical, lights out,” Fowler said. “The intensity that Whitworth brought, that set the tone. Especially with that touchdown that Gurley had, I think that was the real tone-setter. That was the difference in the game. If you really look at the play, the block that Whitworth made for the touchdown, that set the tone. That’s when I knew we were going to win the game.”When the Rams’ defense finally got on the field, they showed toughness of their own. Elliott managed just 47 yards on 20 carries, acknowledging afterward that the Rams “dominated us up front.”The Rams’ offensive line has been respected as one of the NFL’s best for the past two years while Gurley reigned as one of the NFL’s top running backs, yet the five linemen relished another chance to show what they could do on their biggest stage yet.“The coaches saying they would just put it on our back and let us do our thing, that gave us a huge confidence boost and that shared sense of responsibility to just go out there and work a little bit harder on this one Bobby Evans Jersey Mens ,” Saffold said.Los Angeles Rams at Seattle Seahawks: Win-Loss predictions for Week 5 The Los Angeles Rams (4-0) start their three game road stretch against the Seattle Seahawks (2-2) in Week 5. Winning at the Clink is never an easy task, but the Seahawks are hurting on defenses, and will be without several key starters on Sunday. Can the Rams exploit a depleted Seahawks defense and move to 5-0 on the year? The Turf Show Times’ staff make their predictions:go rams (@AndrewKulick)No letdownsPrediction: Rams win, 49-10RamBuck (@lannyosu)This feels like a little bit of a trap game: Earl Thomas is out, K.J. Wright is out, the OL can’t block, Pete Carroll is under fire, the fanbase is turning on them, etc. However, this will be at the CLink, with Russell Wilson still a top 10 QB, so we cannot assume it’s going to be an easy game. However, I just don’t see how the Rams’ offense can be stopped right now. Maybe if Goff has to throw left-handed?Prediction: Rams win, 42-27Eddie Perez (@iAmEddieP_)Rams face off against divisional foe Seattle Seahawks. Unlike years past, the Rams will utterly manhandle this entire game. The Seahawks are a mess. Give McBae & the Boys the W.Prediction: Rams win, 45-9Michael Frank (@turfshowtimesmike)Only two things I can believe that would make this game close are Seattle QB Russell Wilson and the Rams taking it easy. From the vibe of Rams DT Michael Brockers and the team it does not seem the Rams take their foot off the peddle on this one. Seattle is in a world win of hurt this season especially after losing their Last Legion of Boom Player in Earl Thomas, Seattle’s talent pool is so low that any scheme they draw up will have to be “Annexation of Puerto Rico” type plays. Only team that can beat the Rams are the Rams.Prediction: Rams win, 38-17Tevin Broner (@T_Bron)I think this game is going to be closer than people expect. The Seahawks are at home and this is basically their early statement game. I could see them attempting to run the ball a lot. Hopefully it’s a blowout win but that seems too easy Greg Gaines Los Angeles Rams Jerseys , especially with the ass-whooping the Seahawks got in their home last year.Prediction: Rams win, 21-17Charlie Hiller (@CharlieHiller)Prayers up for Russell Wilson.Prediction: Rams win, 41-13Eric Nagel (@Eric_nagel)The Seahawks defense is a little better than they are given credit for, but losing Earl Thomas is going to hurt the secondary. I think the Rams are on a roll and the offense is just too talented to stop. Also, if there was ever a time to get the sack game going, this is it.Prediction: Rams win, 31-20Skye Sverdlin (@skyeattolah)It’s a divisional matchup, anything can happen in the NFL, yada yada...no. The Seahawks are just too depleted to compete for more than a quarter or so this week. The Rams love road trips and will be kicking their feet (hooves) up on the Pete Carroll’s coffee table this week. Prediction: Rams win, 37-16Elijah Kim (@Big_EZK)The Rams look to again to best their scoring output for the 5th week in the row. After scoring, 33, 34, 35, and 38 points in consecutive weeks this season, perhaps the Rams look to break 40 points against the Seattle Seahawks, who are now without their best defensive player in S Earl Thomas. After Jared Goff torched the Minnesota Vikings defense last week for 465 yards, the “system QB” looks to build on his strong season. The Rams win big and hold a tighter vice grip on the NFC West.Prediction: Rams win, 41-24kristianramirez (@kristianramirez)The Seahawks are not having a good time this season Los Angeles Rams Jerseys 2019 , and it’s about to get worse. The Rams hype train is stopping in Seattle this Sunday, and they are going to steamroll the Seachickens. Buckle up Rams Fans, it’s going to get real quiet in CenturyLink Field.Prediction: Rams win, 45-9Hotdaddywags (@hotdaddywags)Last year’s 42-7 dismantling of the Seahawks was probably the most thorough beatdown I’ve ever seen in person. Todd Gurley’s house call at the end of the first half left me feeling almost embarrassed for the inebriated and incredulous 12th man. No Thomas, no Kendricks, no KJ and a balky Baldwin and this Hawks team is arguably worse than the one we faced last year. No, you can’t and should never take a proud NFC west rival for granted in their building, but this one’s going to be a bloodbath birdbath. The Rams are firing on all cylinders, and the Seahawks are a Yugo puttering around the streets of San Francisco.Prediction: Rams win, 44-17Brennan Smith (@BrennanJSmith)This is a bizarre new NFL world we live in where the Seahawks roster has gradually become un-intimidating. Bobby Wagner and Russell Wilson are both still extremely talented and can’t be taken lightly, but the other 51 players on game day are collectively a rung below what the Rams roster consists of. The defensive front seven finally had some measurable success against Minnesota and should be able to bully the Hawks’ offensive line and keep Wilson uncomfortable. On the other side of the ball, losing Earl Thomas is a massive blow to Seattle’s hopes of containing the wide receiver hydra of Cooks, Kupp and Woods. The Rams roll in this one.Prediction: Rams win, 35-17Sosa Kremenjas (@QBsMVP)I think this is going to be a blowout. The Rams are way too talented and hot to allow the Seahawks to give them major trouble. I expect Todd Gurley to have a massive day (200+ yards from scrimmage, three touchdowns) and Jared Goff continues his trek to attempting to become the leagues MVP with another 350-yard performance. And oh yeah, that #99, he’ll end the day with three sacks and the defense will allow less than 18 points.Prediction: Rams win, 42-17seattlerams (@seattlerams_nfl)The player generating the most attention in Seattle these days is rookie punter Greg Gaines Jersey nfl draft , Michael Dickson. In this respect, I expect the 12’s will have plenty to cheer about in this game. What else is there left to say about this game? The Rams have Sean McVay and the Seahawks don’t.Prediction: Rams win, 34-17joeyaucoin (@LARamsRamsRams)I believe in the Rams so hard right now that I want nothing to do with any hate if I don’t show my faith “enough.” That being said, Rams won’t play perfect against the Seahawks, but it will be enough. Goff throws 9 TDs.Prediction: Rams win, 63-0Sean Wilkinson (@Papa_Lurch)The Rams are rolling and the Seahawks struggled against the Cardinals last week. The game is in Seattle, but I still expect the Rams to roll.Prediction: Rams win, 38-163k (@3k_)Don’t fuss with the salmon too much once it’s on the grill: Let the flesh naturally release from the grate before attempting to turn it. You can also use the marinade for any cut of salmon.Prediction: Rams win, 32-10Brandon Bate (@NoPlanB_)I expect this to be enjoyable to watch, mainly because I expect the Rams to making light work of the Seahawks in their house. Always a good time, if you ask me. Prediction: Rams win 38-13For the third time in five weeks, the entirety of the TST staff is picking the Rams to secure the win.
