Packers-Rams fourth quarter

 

Jeff Wilkins started the quarter with a thud, leaving a 48-yard field goal attempt well shot.

The Packers moved in for the kill. Brett Favre’s completion to Donald Driver gave him the all-time NFL career passing yardage record, eclipsing Dan Marino’s record.

Ryan Grant’s 24-yard run moved the Packers into scoring range, then a dubious pass interference call on Corey Chavous — compounded by an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Rams defensive coordinator Jim Haslett — put the Packers on the Rams 10.

Another Rams penalty moved the ball to the 5. But the Rams defense held, with Jonathan Wade  breaking up the third-down pass, and the Packers settled for another Mason Crosby field  goal.

And the Packers had a comfy  30-14 lead.

Bulger came back with completions to Randy McMichael and Steven Jackson, but, once again, he failed to sustain the  possession. The Packers took over with still another short field and measured the Rams for the kill shot.  

But Atogwe didn’t let them deliver it, making his second interception of a deep throw down the right sideline.

A nice run by Antonio Pittman and  Bulger’s completion to Isaac Bruce gave the Rams rolling again, but then Marc went down on back-to-back sacks and the  Rams eventually turned the ball over on downs again.

Still another Crosby field goal pushed the Packers lead to 33-14.

Is it too late to start a Bring Back Mike Martz movement? WHy is Scott Linehan playing so conservative? This team is 3 and 10. They aren’t going anywhere.

Martz is not the answer. The fans need to realize that. Yes things are horrible this season, but as long as fans complain that management needs to look forward and build, so do the fans. Part of the problem with this fan base.

While I agree that Martz is not the total answer, at least under him the team was exciting to watch. This team, even with the injuries, has way too much talent to be 3 and 11.

Same old Rams (second half blunders). May as well have went home at half time, they did. Here.s to our thirty minute Rams.

Ram performances in second half of games shows the lack of competent coaches. Second half performance is often what separates the good from the mediocre. Rams need a change.
