Rams Uncensored Ep. 29: Week 1 Has Finally Arri...
Matt Herrera, Tommy Avants and Brian Joanou are all in for this Week 1 edition of Rams Uncensored. Mark happens to be out because he was ill, but that does not stop the guys for making jokes at his expense all throughout the episode. The guys get the show started talking about the Los Angeles Rams’ new $100 million dollar man. Everyone is happy in Rams camp, while everyone in the media and on Twitter think the Rams are way out of line. It takes them into a deeper discussion in the league about the high price tag of average quarterbacks. The guys also take a look at the other NFC West squads and try to predict who will be at the top and bottom. That brings the guys to take a look at all the games for Week 1. They go game-by-game making predictions and things get interesting. Matt thinks the Rams come out the gates a little slow and lose to Carolina, while Brian and Tommy shun him for picking against the Rams. The guys finish finding out Matt is going to attend the Saints game Week 2 and Week 4 against the Buccaneers. All that and more on this episode of Rams Uncensored.
