Cardinals @ Rams Unofficial Game Thread

[BW Lion]

Pre-game I like studying the coaching staffs.

I found this Chris Shula guy to be interesting

Shula entered the NFL after spending one season as defensive coordinator at John Carroll University in 2014. In that season, John Carroll reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Division III playoffs and finished 10th in Division III in scoring defense.
Prior to his time at John Carroll University, Shula spent three seasons as a graduate assistant, working primarily with defensive backs at Indiana University. Shula entered the coaching ranks as the assistant linebackers coach at Ball State in 2010.

Shula was a linebacker at Miami (Ohio) from 2004-08, where he was a teammate of Rams Head Coach Sean McVay for four seasons.

Shula is the son of David Shula, former head coach of the Cincinnati Bengals from 1992-96, and the grandson of Hall of Fame Head Coach Don Shula. The Shulas are one-of-two three- generation coaching families in NFL history. He and his wife, Jennifer, got married in 2021.

Rams up by a TD. Make that 2 TD’s. Might be a long night for Arizona.

Glad the Mannings are doing the game. Funny and insightful

Rams are dominating the Cardinals on both sides of the ball, at least so far.

Larry Fitzgerald is impressive.

The Rams have a nice well balanced team. For me the question mark is M. Stafford, can he step up and become a big time QB.

A completion or incomplete pass? I’m not sure of the rules on this play.

Nice hit by Nick Scott. Doesn’t look like a catch.

Murray doing his Wentz imitation.

Some ex Penn Staters with some plays.

OMG!! What a mistake by Kyler Murray.

 

[PSUJam]

Troy Reeder.

Troy Reeder.

I’d still like to know what happened between him and CJF. I really don’t think it had anything to do with his brother

I’ve only watched about the last 5 minutes of game time action. The way the Cardinals have demonstarated self destructive behavior is staggering

I didn’t even know there was a playoff game tonight until I stumbled across it a couple minutes ago. Silly money grab by the league.

A combination of bad luck and terrible execution. Also, the Arizona OC & Murray are not reading the Rams blitz packages. For crying out loud try calling a bubble screen or Jet Sweep. Anything to counter these blitzes.

Gotta say, SoFi is one awesome looking stadium especially at night.
