*DEEEEEEEEP BREATH*Hold it*EXHALE*Personally Authentic Laquon Treadwell Jersey , I would if, say, he had blown out his knee.Or ruptured his Achilles’ tendon.Or any one of the myriad ways an NFL player’s body keeps him from being out there with his teammates - and in front of the fans.So that’s what I’m going to do this week.Everson is hurt(ing), he will get the best medical treatment possible, and - hopefully - sometime down the road he will be back.In the meantime, there’s a football game to be played (and at least twelve more after that), so that has to become the focus going forward.With that, let’s talk about the 3-0 Los Angeles Rams!Looking at any of the experts’ polls, you don’t have to look very far to find them.They’re generally either first, second or - in at least one case that I found - third.They have earned the right to be there, too (which we’ll detail in a bit), with efficient offense and a very good defense to go along with one of the best young coaches in football.But, it wasn’t always that way.In fact the team was so abysmal in St. Louis for so long that the owner punished the fans for not supplying him with enough money to buy better players by moving the team to Los Angeles.Now the fans are filling his pockets, building him a new stadium, and are generally happy with the fact that he’s brought football back to the area.Win - win, amirite?Did that sound snarky?I think that may have come across as snarky.About two-and-a-half years ago, when the move was announced, I wrote a fanpost that was an open letter to St. Louis Rams fans, detailing Stan Kroenke’s move to LA, and why they couldn’t blame him.I posted it on the DN and also on Turf Show Times, the DN’s sister site.Fans argued that Stan Kroenke (no relation) was robbing them of the team they had supported so faithfully.And, they argued, had he put a competitive team on the field Youth Andrew Sendejo Jersey , they would have been there, packing the TWA Dome.I argued that it didn’t matter.According to Forbes’ annual value ranking of NFL teams, in 2015, the Rams’ last year in St. Louis, they were ranked 28th out of 32 teams.Kroenke packed up his shiny toy, headed out to the Los Angeles area, and *voila*:Yes, folks, the Rams are now the fourth-highest-valued team in the National Football League.For their part, the fans in Los Angeles have certainly embraced the team, as attendance has been high at the terribly outdated L.A. Colosseum.In fact, there’s a bit of a “Battle of Los Angeles” that has taken place, as Rams fans have tried to take ownership of the city away from the Chargers, who will move into the Rams’ new facility as tenants when it opens in2020.In fact, one fan went so far as to fly banners in the sky near the stadium during the game against the Chargers on Sunday, telling Chargers fans to get outta town.You can find a live webcam, which shows the Stadium progress 24/7 on the team website.It’s a pretty impressive design, and when it’s completed will bring professional sports back to the town of Inglewood for the first time since the Lakers and Kings played at the Forum.The team is definitely going all-out to build a loyal fanbase right away.They even took out a full-page ad in the L.A. Times, imploring companies to let their employees out of work early to come support the team.The ad was “signed” by Rams head coach Sean McVay - who fans of the team have begun to call “McBae” - and if I ever end up at a poker table with him, I hope I’m holding a royal flush. Because he’s Rain Man.Seriously.McVay does one particular thing that Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer really should consider: The Rams on OffenseOn offense, the Rams are on a serious offensive bender.Their hectic scoring pace isn’t quite at “Greatest Show on Turf” levels, but the team is still much better than anything that Jeff Fisher put on the field.Jeff Fisher’s Rams scored 224 points total in 2016, and this year the Rams have already scored nearly half that http://www.vikingsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-ben-gedeon-jersey , in just three games.Quarterback Jared Goff has played really well thus far, and is beginning to transform into the player the Rams hoped he would when they gave up two first round picks, two second round picks and two third round picks to move up and grab him with the first overall pick in the 2016 draft.The following clip shows his absolutely filthy pass to Robert Woods, and throws like that are becoming more commonplace from Goff.You can see Goff’s name all over the statistical leaderboard so far.He’s tied for 6th with a 70.3% completion percentage, he’s 5th with 941 yards passing, 3rd in the league at 9.3 yards per attempt, and 6th with a 111.0 Passer Rating.Of course, when a quarterback has time to sit back in the pocket and let routes develop, good things are going to happen.The Rams’ line so far:The Rams on DefenseOne of the reasons for the Rams’ success is the play of the defensive backfield.The Rams imported two new corners this year - Aqib Talib from Denver and Marcus Peters from Kansas City, and to say they have been dominant thus far would be an understatement:Buuut...Aqib Talib is out for this week’s game after undergoing ankle surgery and Marcus Peters could be a game time decision.Which all plays in to the news that veteran Sam Shields (no relation) will get the start at cornerback.Vikings fans know the name Sam Shields well, having played for the Green Bay Packers for six full seasons before suffering his fourth career concussion during week one of the 2016 season.The Packers placed him on season-ending injured-reserve, then released him after the season, and he spent 2017 out of football, recovering.For all the shutdown ability that the defensive backs have had, one statistic sticks out like a sore thumb: The Rams defense has sacked the quarterback just four times this year.The vaunted Rams defensive line - Michael Brockers, Ndamukong Suh, and reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald - has been mostly held in check.Brockers has a sack, and Suh’s first sack this came this week.I’m no expert, but it sure looks like Suh landed with all his body weight on Philip Rivers.Meanwhile, in Green Bay鈥idiculous Quote of the Week:This week’s entry comes from none other than former Viking Cris Carter.Friday Open Thread: August 31st, 2018 Good Morning!Hope you’re having a great week and looking forward to the onset of the regular season. I was able to watch last night’s final preseason game via Sunday Ticket on my laptop, (thank you Sunday Ticket, I take back all the things I said about you earlier and didn’t mean them).The Vikings won 13-3 over the Titans Sheldon Richardson Jersey , yes it’s preseason but still fun to watch.Good luck to all the guys on the roster bubble and if they are cut by the Vikings I hope they are able to pursue their football dream with another team.In the meantime, while we’re waiting impatiently for the regular season we’ll continue with our daily thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes. Have another cup of coffee and drop by for some fan wisdom and snark. With that, let’s do this.Around the DN since our last thread:Chris has the final preseason game wrap up as the Vikings defeated the Titans 13-3.SB Nation has added a new blog “Against All Enemies” which will follow all the Service Academies sports.Welcome Aboard!Mzahorsky105 gives us the lineup where the Vikings are landing in fantasy drafts.Jonah takes a look back at the day that changed Vikings history forever.Dan reports the AP Pro 32 power ranking places the Vikings third overall.Vikings news from other sources:From Vikings.com HC Mike Zimmer addressed the media after the conclusion of the Vikings-Titans game.Vikings close the 2018 preseason with win over the Titans. WR Brandon Zylstra addressed the media following the Titans game.Pete Bercich guarantees a touchdown ... and Zylstra delivers.League News:From NFL.com Takeaways from Thursday night’s final preseason games.Baker Mayfield finishes the preseason strong with a win, (QBwinz)The Cowboys traded CB Charvarius Ward to the Chiefs for G Parker Ehinger.At NFL.com they have a roster cuts tracker as all 32 NFL team finalize their 53 man roster.Finally, Deadspin continues their “Why Your Team Sucks, 2018”-today the Saints.We come to today’s media selection: Lenny Kravitz-Fly AwayAgain, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:-No discussion of politics or religion-No feeding of the trolls-This isn’t a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasmWith that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up and tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waitress, try the venison chili and as always, Welcome Aboard and Skol Vikings!
