Lions LB DeAndre Levy has been named NFC defensive player of the month. He deserves it.

Bridgewater is looking iffy as a starter for tonight like 50/50 iffy and the Vikings might have to go with sigh Christian Ponder Watch Ponder torch Green Bay tonight because nobody has tape of him doing any throws longer than 5 yards.

The Rams should've never been moved. Georgia Frontiere took a franchise with 50 years of history and moved them out during a recession in L.A. County. Anaheim was the beginning of the end of the L.A. Rams. Anaheim Stadium was unfit for football and took the Rams out of their base. When the Raiders moved there in 1982, it created more issues for the Rams. By 1994, with the team in freefall, the attendance falling apart, and no shot at a new stadium, Georgia took the team and bolted to her home town. Even if we're bad, you stand by your team. We've been #3 for years in St. Louis. The Dome is outdated, horribly, outdated. I don't see any value with the St. Louis Rams. The Los Angeles Rams, though? I see stars. At the same time....Bill Bidwell wronged the city of St. Louis when he moved the Cardinals in 1987. The Rams will never overtake the Chiefs, its time to move on and forget about it. Why are they #3 because the Cardinals are 9 times of 10 in the Playoffs. The Blues again has this long streak of making the playoffs and last few seasons started back on that. So of course The Rams will take a back team to them when we the sports fans can have hope in them. You can say stand by your team but that not easy to do when for several years when Georgia passed on her family wanted too sell. Which means no hope for us fan in having a good season or a chance of winning but they wasn't going to invest into the team. Fans do go to the Rams games and do all of that. But like anywhere else, the winning teams get the most fans. Look at NY City. Which team is Number 1? The Giants. How many times has the Jets been laughed at by everyone? Why? because the Jets don't win and the Giants have. That is why The Yankees has a huge following is because they have a larger history and again most seasons they make the playoffs. LA is no different. Lakers or Spurs? How many seasons did The Angels or Dodger not have winning seasons and what happened when they didn't. Point is LA isn't going to stand by the team either if they are not giving any kind of hope to say "Hey, they could go far this year." The Rams in St. Louis if they move is still going to be mostly the same team until contracts run out. The first season will have buzz because it's a new and fresh homecoming if you will. Then what happens when they fall? Plus you also have too look at Fisher who signed with St. Louis because of location compared to Miami. Will he willing to move to LA? That is a question because one of the reasons he took St. Louis is because where his family is. So fair-weather fans? Sounds about right. I don't get the "no hope" thing. I think this is a damn strong football team with a lot of talent. I can't explain the rough start, but I'm wagering we win Sunday. They will come to the games. Especially if they're back in town and not sitting in Anaheim. I don't think Jeff Fisher would mind the move....considering he's FROM L.A.

Especially if they're back in town and not sitting in Anaheim. I don't think Jeff Fisher would mind the move....considering he's FROM L.A. Read what I said because I said until recently the team had no hope. From when Georgia passed on until the team finally got sold. It not a fair weather fan deal, it was a sad downfall with no ending until there was a sale. Because a selling team isn't going to invest money into it. I mean ask yourself. If you where watching a team that couldn't be at less .500 would spend the money on a ticket when it cost more then the MLB or NHL to attend? You can be loyal and there been plenty but it becomes hard to invest when the management isn't investing. There been seasons where they max three wins. When Fisher came in the fans got excited because there was hope. When Bradford was drafted at Number 1 there was hope again at QB. What happened with the Rams was the same situation Oakland had before the ownership change and Fisher coming in where we had a guy who is a legit head coach. This Rams Team now isn't the same team that we saw during the Mark Bulgar Era when all the offense was on Steven Jackson who it is a same Jackson in his prime never got the chance too be on a winning team. The issue right now is Bradford getting hurt in the pre season. Shaun Hill was named starter and didn't work out. This week Davis is starting again so maybe we can see a great team. Plus Austin is back too. The team will be better if that have the QB situation fixed. Davis maybe the answer if not they need to sign or draft one next off season because Bradford doesn't seem to be the guy.

Vikings declared QB Teddy Bridgewater inactive for Week 5 against the Packers. This is a game now because Christian Ponder while having no real future in Minnesota has to know think that playing well here might get another team like the Texans or Dolphins to start him next year while they figure out their Quarterback situation for the future.

How do you let Jordy Nelson get that wide open? The Vikings defense is in trouble.

Man, Minnesota's defense is bad. Too many schemes. A corner should always be on a WR, no exceptions.

I watched Ponder his whole career and I was shocked he went in the first. Good guy, but he's no first rounder.
He was a 3rd-4th round talent that they panicked and took way too high.
