Yep, I'm skipping again, to Week 3, but as a Rams fan, it's definitely worth it, because Steve Spagnuolo's D was rockin' last night: try six sacks and four turnovers:RamView recap
Also, bump the Preseason Challenge soda count up to 15. Hey, it takes me an extra hour just to watch Rams games!
MVP: Safety James Butler hit the Bengals with a sack on their very first play and returned a fumble 71 yards for a TD the next drive.
What did we learn: The Rams will get after you on defense. Chris Long looked like a Pro Bowler. The blitz-heavy defense they figure to use in the regular season gave the Bengals fits. The Bengals need Carson Palmer healthy if they're going to go anywhere. And, duh. They are making nice strides on defense. Robert Geathers' play is quality. Rookie Michael Johnson gave the Rams fits. Pat Sims is a good anchor in the middle. If their young LBs live up to their potential, they'll mess somebody up.
Up next: Ooh, tonight's a tough call but I'm looking too busy for Patriots-Redskins at the moment. I'm thinking more along the lines of the Colts-Lions / Raiders-Saints NFL Network doubleheader tomorrow (followed by a two-network quadrupleheader Sunday!)
