Coach Steve Spagnuolo thinks the St. Louis Rams are making steps toward becoming the "focused, disciplined and tough football team" that he envisions. Spagnuolo pointed to the locker room at halftime -- yes, halftime -- of the Rams' 24-21 preseason win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night as an example of how the culture of the team is changing. "I was really impressed with halftime," Spagnuolo said. "The NFL gives you a 12-minute window, and you go in there and make your adjustments. Usually you are kind of scrambling there a little bit. "Our guys were up, standing up, ready to go back out there with five minutes to go. They just wanted to go back out there and play. I thought that was pretty revealing about this group and this team." Source: Belleville News-Democrat
I have to admit, I haven't seen a Rams outfit this tenacious in years and that's pleasing to say the least. After years of lack of heart displayed by the Martz & Linehan teams, I'm hoping Spags can get us back to the top of the NFC West where we belong.
