It cannot work Twice in this First Half of the Season, Can it???

St. Louis Rams coach Scott Linehan is somewhat optimistic about facing the Chiefs this week.

"We have to look at it as coaches and, give the team the best chance we can, we have to put guys into position to succeed... we have to play better.”

He admits the Chiefs can run the ball quite well,

Linehan says it will be a “...Tough challenge this week because we’re playing a team that’s playing well as of late and has real similar qualities to the team we just played.”

He is reminded how LaDainian Tomlinson shined last week against his team, about just how good he was. Tomlinson rushed for a season high 183 yards against the Rams. He also scored three touchdowns to lead the San Diego Chargers to a 38-24 win over those same Rams. Can Larry Johnson coming to town now be a concern for him?

Linehan, this morning also knows that.... there was a Ram, Stephen Davis, who fumbled last Sunday. That one was returned immediately by a thankful, solid SD defense for a touchdown: the coach admits “It was a pretty big play in the game... Big turnover. Again, it wasn’t the only mistake in the game, it certainly changed the whole outlook in that game.”

This guy Linehan cloaks all this "disappointment" with even more "concern" this week. You see, The Rams are up for this competition this week as we vie for the much coveted... Governors Cup! The winner of course, procuring bragging rights for a year! It serves to keep alight that eternal flame of interstate rivalry between Missouri and Kansas!

This last Linehan rant though, sends shivers of awe up my spine! Doesnt it to you? I still remember how those Pittsburgh Steelers coaches were vocal, also worried about all this and concerned about that! They too looked at everything darkly, producing such an effort to look so melancholy, right before they ripped us one in the Steel City.

Listening Chiefs D???

This coach, Linehan, is trying sing each of you a sweet lullaby, just to get you to a little sleepy... again, for his Rams! Just, this time, guys please get alot of rest before this game- its not a long road trip, just down the highway actually!

Now, hope and pray that they dont try the ol'-
"lets get some beautiful women together and sell them discounted sex toys at a quiet rest stop just outside St Louis" routine,

-that tired ol' deceitful ploy that worked so well against us a few short weeks ago in the Pittsburgh Airport!

That was dirty pool guys, right, just don't forget how it took the heart out of us!


C'mon, please!
Focus, focus, focus...
then...

Roll on Red Warriors!
