just wanted to let you know quinn has both DPOY and the sack title locked down

playoff contention > DPOY and sack title???

 

I think mathis cares more about being in the playoffs then some " sack title " and " award " and in regards to your other post about the rams " destroying " the colts, ummm again who is in the playoffs? and who will be sitting at home and only being in the playoffs on madden?? go troll somewhere else.

in response to your quote about RG3, he wasn't benched in favor of cousins. two factors on why he was benched

 

1) their season was already lost and no need to risk injury to him.

 

2) their driving Cousins trade value up especially with help from other front office members of other teams and the press. 

 

 

this is a try out for other teams in regards to cousins right now. they are trying to get back into the first round or at worst get another 2nd rounder. can not blame them for trying. 

 

 

 

 

Oh, that was a bet i made with previous posters on this board regarding RG3 and the texan's record. I WON BOTH BETS. But they didn't honor it (they were supposed to change their avatar). Regardless, i dominated them.

We are about to play the team that Robert Mathis had his highest sack total against (3.0) in September and this time we are at home. Robert Quinn is only up by half a sack and the Rams are in Seattle on Sunday. I really hope Robert Mathis can rack up 2 or 3 of them and get the title. It would awesome to see him get the Deacon Jones award the inaugural year they give it out.

Any chance Mathis can get DPOY? He could be 1st in sacks and FF and is our only playmaker in actually a decent defense statistically. Only problem is he's not amazing in the run game. 

 

Or is it Watt's to lose? 

 

I don't think a guy on a 2 win team should win it to be honest. 

He wont..and that's why

Freeman loses his INT.

His 17.5 is behind only Rams DE Robert Quinn.

It is hard to put the year Mathis is having in perspective.  Plenty has been said, but I still can't fathom it.  While he gets downgraded by many for his play against the run, and maybe that isn't a strength, he doesn't get nearly enough credit for the number of non pash rush plays he is involved with.  He's been in on 53 tackles this year - not an unusual number for him, but pretty high for a pass rush specialist (DFree is impressed and wonders how he does it).  Great all around player.

I think he can easily tie or break his record. on Sunday but too bad he's put to rest for the game

Colts still have a shot at a bye in the playoffs, Wont be resting any starters that can go, Besides we are not a well oiled machine that can afford to sit starters that are able to play

Look at the injury report. They plan to put Mathis and Landry on rest.

We can win without them. Plus it's too risky considering that the chances of the Bills beating the Patriots are slim. even with backups...

And if they lose, Bengals can still take the spot from us since they beat us and probably win the division.

Watch this video, shows his sacks. He definitely is not given any. Fastest defensive end in the league.

I watched the video he is a great defensive end but if you look at the way he gets low going around a offensive tackle to get to the quarterback and the way he strips the ball it almost reminds of some one the colts but I cant remember his name darn at least I can say this it looks like he leaned from the best

Typical troll...jumps on and fires some shots to get the war going, then bails as we all fight about it. Lol Rams fan, we'd LOVE to play you now that we're back on our feet. You caught us just after Reggie Wayne went down. As you can see, we have made a lot of progress since. Now get off our board

Your restrictions on how many posts newcomers can make killed me. I was locked out of my own conversation after 5 posts.

I guess one thing I'd consider if I was voting DPOY is game-changing ability....is there really anyone in the league more feared by a team (especially in obvious pass situation) than Mathis and his strip-sack knack???

I'd say NO

Quinn has just as many strip sacks, more TFLs and more run stuffs. And half a sack more.

Mathis and Landry get a day of rest every week.

Probably for the best that the board prevented you from posting.

Quinn plays opposite Long....teams can't afford to give Quinn the attention Mathis gets.

Quinn is good player but just not on Mathis level yet.

Long has been hampered by a hip injury all season and hasn't been a threat at all. Half of his production came from one game the others came off mostly coverage sacks. But I see your point, Quinn has 1 year of success and Mathis has many. Still think Quinn's individual season is better, but what does that matter if Rams aren't in the playoffs? You're right.

 

 

As far as you guys go, I'm sorry about coming on here and acting like a jerk. Guess I'm just hostile because it's been years since the Rams ever had something worth celebrating. Think of how you guys felt during that 2-14 season, then think of 10-12 years like that without ever even sniffing victory, and before the Greatest Show on Turf, 25 more years. It's a tough path, being a Rams fan.

 

Good luck in the playoffs! Hope you guys win it all! Hope Mathis doesn't take away the Ram's only bright spot, but if he does, I'd rather he get it than any one else.
