Two former Los Angeles teams met today in St. Louis on the dawn of the controversial grand jury decision in the Michael Brown case from Ferguson. The Rams receiving core came out and gave a tribute to Ferguson. However, we are not here to talk about current issues. We are here to talk football, and today the St. Louis Rams shut out the Oakland Raiders. Incidentally, the last time the Rams shut out an opponent was in 2006 against the Oakland Raiders. Tre Mason had a career game (but he's only a rookie) with three touchdowns. The Rams finished the half 38-0 before playing half speed in the second half to finish the game 52-0.
Rams Pros - Brian Schottenheimer called a great game and got two of his biggest play makers in Tavon Austin and Tre Mason involved from the get-go.
Rams Cons - There weren't many today, just a few stupid defensive penalties that could have been avoided.
Raiders Pros - There weren't many here either but Maurice Jones-Drew had a 13 yard run.
Raiders Cons - Allowing a team to shut you out 52-0 and not all the points were from their offense.
Player of the Game: Tre Mason
