with Rapp coming in spot duty or in 3 Safety defenses. That mean.s JJohnson will be FS...is that how we are all thinking on the board??? That's kinda how I see it based on Rapp & Weddle's strengths at SS. JJ will play the FS spot and will be very good there to I would think...tho he may not have the speed Joyner had....he may have better instincts at FS which would make up any deficiencby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
can only benefit the players & coaches moving forward. There's no way it's a hindrance...no way...even if our team lost... the experience of playing in the SB will have a huge lasting impact for these guys going forward. imo I'm really really excited to see how our team settles into itself this year....and I hope the defense steps up this year - during the year - and plays much more conby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
If we can develop mid-round picks (3rd-5th rounders) guys in our OL scheme...we could save a LOT of money without having to pay super big bucks to an OL - unless we hit on a really great one we want to keep. Paying rookie salaries for those 8OL would be a HUGE savings avenue if we can replenish/restock every 4yrs... and pay for the players that are TRULY difference makers. But as of now,by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
"Kiser was very productive as he accumulated 26 tackles and two pass deflections in four games of action." not bad!....that's almost 7 tackles per game and then 2 pass deflections is pretty good for a guy who supposedly can't cover.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
....especially in McVay's offense cuz it'll give Bortles easy throws. Bortles is a very good athlete and a fair enough passer and I think the McVay schemes good route combos to help make easy throws for QBs....PLUS Bortles can throw on the run and moves around much better than Goff. imo I dunno...I just think Bortles became what Goff became under Fisher that 1st year. I think good OCs helpby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
I really really liked him from his college film last year....by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
Man, having that slow-mo Fisher style offense just numbs the senses....I love McVay's aggression on offense and how the entire offense starts to think more aggressively and play that way. Just like the GSOT days where a holding call and a 2nd & 20 would mean nuthin...we'd pick that up with a dig rout deep out route. Those days have come again.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
I liked his college film from last year and thot he's an interesting guy to groom....albeit I thot for both OG spots or RT...not LT!! Anyway, I was surprised when the tried to sneak him onto the PS and we lost him to the Lions...but equally as happy when we got him back. I think Kromer really likes Demby. imo we'll see, though...this year has better competition from those 2 drafted OL andby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
that's all. I just think we're the 3rd best offense and Chiefs & Saints are better...based on last year. This year we may be the best...i'm pretty cool with that!! Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL. imo ...just a surreal skillset in that offense!!by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
I just kinda lost interest in the article cuz of some of the projections there.... so, I didn't give it much mind or credence to be honest. Every year is a new year and every team has to prove it again. There will be surprises...I just hope the Rams are not a surprise to us... cuz that will mean we were bad!! lolby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
from the Bountygate stuff.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn I think he would be a head coach candidate if not for that. I am always impressed when I see Kromer speak in interviews...he seems very intelligent and passionate for the game! I think his problems with those other football teams were more crimes of passion...as he gets frustrated and calls it as he sees it... at least, with Cutler...tho I disagree how Kromer handled that. I think hby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
Personally, I think Boom has the feet for LT more than anyone on the team. But all that matters is that Kromer gets everything out of those guys and it'll all take care of itself. Kromer has ben a real gift for the Rams. btw - Wasn't Kromer the OC at (Bears 4yrs ago) who slipped something negative about Cutler...remember this?!

I got them flipped in my head...and the time too. It's an simple mistake, as I do quite a lot of time travel these days. ;)by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
in his highlights....although I know he's not and played QB & TE also. It's just a silly thing, but if Havenetsien CAN be a very good RT...so can Edwards... as havenstein looks the least able to move and has just a horrible body...but plays great RT. I would NEVER have guessed we'd resign Havenstein....or that he'd be that good at RT.....ever!! Just goes to show how one shouldn't juby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
but that's not what they're doin in that draft grading article...they are mixing both forms of grading & personnel moves and it is not a fair scale if the writer doesn't apply the rules equally. imo It gets confusing when players are included from a trade...then doesn't include them for other teams that did the same thing. I dunno....just confused why he would be so blatant about beingby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
seriously, I keep forgetting to add those two players to our grade as many post draft articles had forgotten too. The NFL site graded us at an A- (not including Cooks & Fowler)...why not ??? Adding those two players to our draft class would push us to an A+...no?! DRAFT GRADES article I know the stuff below has been posted...just curious why the grading writer mentioned adding tradesby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
no hard feelings towards him...it was just time to move on. ;)by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
and I'll always be thankful to him for that...but he couldn't take the next step and we moved on...but up until Fisher we had 5 wins in 4 seasons or somethin crazy!!! Fisher brought us out of the cellar and got us playin hard against some opponents Seahawks especially. Anyway, Fisher got us to 7-9 and moved us back to LA....Fisher was a good stepping stone of quality. imo But OFFENSE wasby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
those yellow-panted Roadies were the very first jersey(#26 Wendell Tyler) I ever bought!!! The year we went to the SB in 1979.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
What you did above is my FULL expectation of what the Rams will literally do in 2020... kinda Cal style dk blue for jersey instead of lighter blue or 70s style. Great job!!!! btw - just an aside on Ram uniform design in general.....cuz i saw some Rams mock-up helmets on another site that had the old 70s style B&Y... but had the blue of the helmet the lighter shade(the color of the jerby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
what's news about that?! ;)by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
"In 2018, he averaged a whopping 8.9 yards per carry - for the second consecutive season, by the way - while piling up 1,909 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns." One time can be a fluke...back-to-back is an impressive feat!by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
as PRs are a different skill set - just a little bit! The catching of it not the running part. I know henderson returned KOs...did not hear he returned punts tho....and they are two different things. It'd be great if he could do BOTH...he might be able to as he has pretty good hands and must have decent hand/eye coordination to do that. we'll see.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
I mean, if Long's a CB that defends passes so well...I'd think would get significant playing time...right? I would think so. And if he plays well in support/relief of the starters then we'll see more hidden gems of PFF ratings. However, there are so many college players that post crazy stats that seem implausible....and are the highest rated for any player in the draft.... then, that player doby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
which I think we're gonna play more of on defense...the 3 Safety thingy and drop out another LB... which means, more big run gashes unless we get that fixed like in the play-offs. I think teams are just gonna try and pound us with decent success. imo btw - If Gaines is our starting NT...he'll have to be good - or those teams will RUN all over us.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
especially in our RZ scheme....imo...where there are cut back lanes that open up for the RB... yes, those holes open & close quickly and henderson will have adapt...but avging 8.9yds/carry for 2 years in a row??!! lol wow. That's a bit silly - even at lower competition. That said I think he dropped cuz the NFL can be skittish sometimes about smaller RBs. I think Henderson's comp is CJ2Kby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
and love the yellow pants/white jersey AWAY style...and it's not cuz I'm old and used to it.... it's cuz it looks FREAKIN GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
