Your Seattle Seahawks are sitting pretty at a dominant 2-0 after absolutely stomping the Arizona Cardinals 31-7, and guess what? The San Francisco 49ers are also 2-0. That means we could be getting some serious early daylight on the mighty Los Angeles Rams, who are already staring down a potential 0-2 start.

The Rams’ Early Season Is A Certified Mess

Seriously, what is going on down in La-La Land? The Rams already took a fat L against the 49ers last week, all the way in Australia no less. Now they’re heading into Monday Night Football against the New York Giants without Puka Nacua, which is a huge blow to their “supposedly unstoppable” offense. That same offense just put up a measly 7-point stinker against the Niners. Talk about a rough start!

Their defense, which supposedly underwent “major changes” in the offseason, had a “not good showing” last week. And while we’ll see Aaron Donald making his return for the first time since the 2023 season, he won’t have Myles Garrett for at least a month following knee surgery. So, one step forward, one massive step back. You just love to see it when you’re the 12s and you’re already leading the division.

Giants Ready to Play Spoiler For LA

The good news for us, and the potentially terrible news for the Rams, is that the New York Giants actually looked “more than competent” in their debut under new coach John Harbaugh. We’re talking Jaxson Dart throwing darts and Cam Skattebo running over people like he’s got zero thought about self-preservation. Their defense also clamped down on the Dallas Cowboys’ offense, limiting them to zero explosive pass plays, even with a few defensive pass interference calls mixed in.

The big question for Monday night is whether the Rams’ offensive line can actually deal with the Giants’ defensive front. After that 7-point embarrassment, you know the Rams offense is under major scrutiny. We want a Giants win, or more accurately, a Rams loss. Let’s be real, Rams losses are, for the most part, very fun to watch.

Your Seahawks are out here crushing it with Sam Darnold under center, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and Cooper Kupp making plays. We’re feeling good about our 2-0 start with Head Coach Mike Macdonald and OC Brian Fleury leading the way. So, let’s keep that winning momentum going for the Emerald City!
