Rams notes, 10/1

* Steven Jackson, O.J. Atogwe, Cliff Ryan, Laurent Robinson and Darian Stewart have all been held out of practice so far this week. About the only injury situation on the team that's improved this week is Craig Dahl's. He's full-go now and if the game were today, he'd be starting in Atogwe's free safety spot.
Jackson describes his leg and groin as "still tight" and hasn't attempted to do any running yet since his injury last Sunday. At this point he's considered doubtful for Seattle.

* The Rams got an extension of the blackout deadline again this week, to noon today. Right now it's believed the game will be televised locally.

* With Jackson very likely down and the secondary continuing to have to rely on awful James Butler, I'm reluctantly taking Seattle minus the point.

* And lest I forget, Kurt Warner's still alive on Dancing With the Stars after Michael Bolton was banished this week. Kurt, your Hall of Fame candidacy is safe as long as you beat out Bolton and Margaret Cho. Don't let America down.
