Yes so far. Simply look at Rams wins during AD and GRob's tenure. 6, 7 and 4. Despite AD's huge success, Fisher's Rams were still losers. Fisher took all those high draft picks and did nothing with them.by govane - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRams43 I know, I know. So what's new, huh? You were excited last year. And every year before that. Lol. I'll join your excitement this year though. Only because the Fish is gone. But I'm not sure if this offense can be potent this year. For me Goff is still a question mark to hit his potential this year. Goff is coming from an air raid offense in college and is learning his seby govane - RamsFootballFans.com
Goff would have to go a really long way from worst QB rate in the league to top 7. And Goff would have to surpass some pretty good QB's to get there. Plus, Goff would have to buck the odds for an air raid QB to get a top 7 season. Foles did it one year when he had DJack, Shady, couple of good TE's and the best OL in football that year. McVay is good, but I'm not sure he's that good. Goby govane - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotealyoshamucci So I have defensive starters in place across the board. Therefore my strategy is changing a little. I'd rather get a developmental CB in this draft then let a position of need go unaddressed. If Tru is traded, I will be adding a CB early. 2) Engram ... the only gripe I'm hearing is that there are thoughts that he may not be there.

I think a lot of you guys would agree many of the calls were pretty marginal especially compared to last season. I would call that progress. It was visible to me.

Quotesix2stack Other than the Green Bay Packers, all 3 other teams can run the football. That's what sticks out to me. If not for Aaron Rodgers superior QB play, it would've been 4 teams. A great QB cannot put the entire team on his shoulders. You have be able to run and stop the run at a high success rate. Of the 4 remaining teams, NE is the best at doing this and they have Tom Brady to boot. Grby govane - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBigGame81 Tell him not to think, just maul. Can you imagine him whiffing on blocks at G when he's that much closer to the QB. Goff would have half a second to throw. I think Grob's best position is DT. See ball. Get ball. Go Grob!by govane - RamsFootballFans.com
With Jones and Sanu out last week, Rams probably had better skill players on the field, and Falcons still looked better. Hopefully, Kyle can make some chicken salad out of our chicken shot. Go Rams!by govane - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotepromomasterj Sorry, I watched those guys play, sometimes live. They were not much more than average. And making 1 pro bowl is not a hallmark of a great QB.

But don't you think he'd have more authority working with his dad. I can imagine that the possibility to have more say on staff, players and strategy should be an appeal to him.

QuoteRamUK You do realize that Mike Shanahan had a 24-40 record in his last coaching job, right?

The Shanahans can get the most out of our investments in Goff and Gurley. The Shanahans have worked with some pretty good QB's. Kyle with Matt Ryan.

Gurley kinda reminds me of TD. They even have the same number. He might not be as good as a blocker as TD yet, but their running styles are similar. Looking at TG's highlights, I think he can thrive as a one-cut back. And didn't the Rams run a ZB scheme last year when TG had success. And to recap just in case Mr. Demoff is lurking.

Shanahan never wanted RG3, but changed his offense to accomodate him. Then coached RG3 to the best season of his career. In his second season, RG3's head got too big for him and with guidance from Snyder demanded Shanahan to change the playbook. It's no surprise that RG3 hasn't done anything since his first season with Shanahan. Here's link to a good article on the story.by govane - RamsFootballFans.com
I believe he's son of former long-time Broncs GM, John Beake. John Beake was GM when Shanahan won SB's with Broncs.

Things are getting really, really bad (or maybe worse) for the Los Angeles Rams, who now have lost eight of nine games and have been miserable offensively.

Agree with this. Fisher was the perfect hire for Stan because he wanted a coach that was marketable, has experience with moving a team, but also someone that would not achieve too much success because a winning season would make the move from St. Louis to LA more difficult. Step right in Mr. Fisher. And it all worked out great for Stan. Since the hiring of Fisher, Rams have been closeby govane - RamsFootballFans.com
