Quotepromomasterj So...not so hot. Yes hot in the span I described. In that 6:30 minute window in the 4th they scored twice on them--actually 3 times counting the 2 pointer. I said he was hot in the final 6:30 minutes and he was. And yes Martz wasted that moment.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote21Dog Offense fizzled in Carolina territory on numerous occasions. Might have led to Martz' decision to go conservative at the end of game. Which again was bad game awareness on his part. Starting at 6:20 they had scored 2 TDs and a 2 pointer and Bulger was hot, including a great 4th down conversion. Bulger was something of a 4th quarter comeback guy.

Quotemerlin Was in thinking that Stan was Georgia. That he wouldn't use the out they gave him. If they had just paid the $800M or whatever to put the stadium into the top percentage as they had agreed to do by contract, Stan would still be in STL. So no matter how you slice this thing they gave up their control of the situation. The complaints in this thread are about how the Rams handled thby zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemerlin I like what he's done in his stops prior, from his positional jobs to his interim look. I love the staff he put together of players, in particular Brunell was a brilliant QB hire for Goff. And the guy doesn't have to speak like Shakespeare to get through to the players. He's not a cerebral type in how he comes across but you don't need to be if you know how to gameplan intelligentlby zn - RamsFootballFans.com

And I'm looking at that 2022 roster, and wonder where the offensive linemen will come from... Why do you think Evans is a concern?

Quoteden-the-coach That was documented as to why he fumbled so much. Robinson liked him because he coached him in the Senior Bowl, but the real catastrophie was drafting Gaston Green over Thurman Thomas. 88. They took Green and Cox over Eric Allen and Thurman Thomas. In round 2 they took Anderson and Strickland, who were good picks though they wasted Strickland's career in the nosebacker role.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Ever since free agency and the cap were instituted, it is impossible to keep an OL longterm that is made up entirely of your own draft picks. According to some research that was done a while back, teams turn over on average 3 OL every 2 years. Again that's the cap plus free agency. To stock your OL you need to use every means of acquring players. Draft high, draft low. Sign UDFAs. Sign hiby zn - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRams_81 The bottom line, he is tough as nails, has some good athletic skills and good arm and a good leader but he isn't very accurate.

From the Athletic. I can only quote a bit of the article. The article basically covers the changes associated with a new coach, somewhat different attack scheme, and a new center. Good read.

QuoteHornsUpRamily! Solid points, but I'm not sure how the Rams front office plans to get past the 2020 free agency exit of up to 5 offensive linemen. First of all, they are already in a deficit.

QuoteLMU93 Sure, it's one of the league's big offseason storylines.
