I play as the team I'd like to see win. I let the Bengals down there.

I'm enjoying doing the video. Showing the key plays pretty much frees me from doing a sportswriter's summary. Plus sharefactory makes it pretty simple.

In relation to game media, I notice that after the latest PS4 system update, you can now take screen shots from video clips. When in trim mode, the option is there along with start/end here.

Seattle Seahawks (1-0, 0-0 Away)		Los Angeles Rams (1-0, 0-0 Home)
Injury Report TE Nick Vannett (ankle) Questionable WR Pharoh Cooper (shoulder) Probable RB Christine Michael (knee) IR Game Notes Don't expect this to be the week the Rams win a game in LA for the first time since 1994. All the hoopla surrounding The Return can't offset the fact that the Rams will be facing one of the best defenses in the league and that the emergence of Russell Wilson as a complete quarterback has made the Seahawks multi-dimensional on offense. It's daunting that Todd Gurley found a somewhat improved, but still lesser, San Francisco defense a tough row to hoe (3.5 ypc), as game manager Case Keenum isn't going to be a difference-maker against the Legion of Doom- at least not in a positive way. Rookie Rams WR Pharoh Cooper (shoulder), who suited up but did not play has week, has improved enough to be inserted at the no. 5 spot on the depth chart, and it may only be a week or two until he's ready to take over slot duty from Bradley Marquez.

Seahawks Dismantle Rams; Goff Sees First Action

It’s still been 1994 since the Rams won a game in Los Angeles. With turnover-plagued LA trailing the visiting Seattle Seahawks 24-6 at halftime, Case Keenum was 9-for-17 for 68 yards and 3 picks (although the third was on a half-ending Hail Mary), and head coach Jeff Fisher conceded defeat and decided to allow Jared Goff to have his baptism of fire. Given his opportunity in a low-pressure situation- all that was expected of him was to get a taste of a game that counted- Goff completed his first 8 attempts but went 8-of-16 thereafter and threw an interception that was converted into points. The Seahawks displayed some unsportsmanlike conduct when, having made a first down in the red zone with the Rams out of time outs, they appeared to want to try to hang 50 on the Sheep. Seattle’s reward for that bit of nonsense was Russell Wilson getting chased down and stripped, and Maurice Alexander taking the fumble to the house for a cosmetic reduction of the margin of defeat.

T.J. McDonald didn’t even get an arm tackle on this one.


An interception gets away from Mark Barron.


Russell Wilson had a great passing day. Holding onto the football? Not so much.

So, does the Goff era start now?

Also, after the Kearse TD, I'm certain it was just players walking around, but it looked like the Rams' players were jawing with each other and getting pissed at each other.

Goff was under no pressure to engineer a comeback. Maybe he had pressure on himself to show something. But would he wilt starting a game? My takeaway from his performance is that we can hold out hope of not having to incubate him for as long as was feared. Keenum will get the start Week 3 vs. the Bucs but his leash will certainly be shorter. Keenum the game manager without turnovers may keep his job a while. Keenum the turnover machine gives way to Goff. Starting Goff won't be just to change things up. It will be a statement that it's time to transition and that Keenum's days of starting are over. One half with nothing to lose doesn't signal transition time.

I've noticed chippy players more in M17 than in any others. Both shoving matches between opposing sides and teammates getting after each other. There's a clip in the SF highlights where Hyde catches hell for dropping a pass for a turnover on downs.

And not to hijack the thread, but 5 years from the Bungles, and how many since I started following your Oregon State Beavers?
