The Motown Blues
By James T. Ingram for OhhMyOnline.net
After defeats of the Redskins and the Seahawks, most Rams fans were confident (despite the pundits predictions) that the Rams had a better than average shot of upsetting the lowly Detroit Lions.
But it just wasn’t to be.
In fact the Rams suffered a good old fashioned beat-down at the hands (or claws) of the Detroit Lions, handing their first victory of the season.
Nothing seemed to work for the Rams in their 44-6 loss. From Danny Amedola’s red zone fumble, to the season-ending injury to WR Mark Clayton, who to-date had been QB Sam Bradford’s most stellar receiver and a deep threat.
Then there was the 105-yard kickoff return by Stefan Logan, which became the dagger in the Rams heart.
It was all uphill after that, with questions remaining as to how the Rams will compensate for the loss of Mark Clayton and whether or not the Rams 2 game “winning streak” was merely a fluke.
Well, those questions will be answered as the Rams return back to the Edward Jones on next week to host the NFL’s number one offense, in the San Diego Chargers.
