Here was the problem with 1978 - Yesterday
...and all of the '70's for that matter: The Rams didn't have a Staubach. Or a Tarkenton.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
The real failure, as I see it - Yesterday
The real failure is on the part of the owners to having made emotional decisions instead of business decisions. And also on the part of Goodell for being unable to guide the owners through the emotions and get to the right business decisions. There could have been a way to get the Rams to LA, keep the Chargers in SD. Whether the league could have kept the Raiders in Oakland was less probableby NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
So, what you're saying is..... - Yesterday
Sit back and enjoy the game, even with it's ups and downs, and look forward to the next game. In other words, just enjoy being a fan.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

McVay saw how easy it was to score on the Whiners and Packers and figures every drive will go for a TD and 2 point conversions will be a piece of cake!by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

I'm confused about the Kupp injury - 2 days ago
If it's severe enough to keep him out a game or two, why did they place him back on the field in the 2nd half?by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

If the Rams were 1-5, -31 in net points, just lost a tough MNF game on the road half ways across the country, was playing their backup QB and was going up against a 6-0 Niner team who was +78 in net points, even if the game was at home, which team would you pick to win 9 times out of 10?by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

The Rams better get up by more than 14 fourth Q points on Rodgers. The guy just works magic.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

Let's get to 8-0 off these guys!by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Well, I'll add this - 3 days ago
Based on the post game press conference, I think McVay saw major mistakes in how he called certain plays in certain situations. Doesn't mean any of us think we are better than the HC. Not at all. He just didn't have the best day. Allowed the game to be much tighter than it needed to be.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams need to walk into Goodell's office - 3 days ago
And flat out demand re-education of the refs, with films of the evidence sent to refs of all future games. It is flat out inexcusable how much Donald and Suh are being held.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Exactly right. - 3 days ago
There's a number of folks here getting upset that others of us are disagreeing with some of McVay's play calling. We are only calling out some of the play calling, because of the situations at the time. Your description is a perfect example. Going "conservative" with a couple of run calls, such as the 3rd down you mention, turned out to make a huge difference in the final score. I wby NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree with that, yessir - 3 days ago
If they give you the run, keep taking it. Rotate your backs all day until they can stop you. Don't give them points and sacks because you go with something that's not working. I love McVay. He will take us to many a Promised land, but he got a lesson yesterday I hope he takes seriously. And the post game news conference sounded like he did. I accept that. Next up, Whiners. The teamby NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
For sure - 3 days ago
The O lineman moved back at least 4 inches before Suh moved. So obvious. The ref was caught sleeping on that one. The league will see that one. Glad it will keep that ref out of our Super Bowl this February. ( Snicker)by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree with that - 3 days ago
I'll always take a win, no matter how it comes. McVay has proven he is a winner, but he also is showing his Achilles heel. Other great coaches will find ways to take advantage of that. As I wrote before, I think McVay will correct that. I hope it's sooner than later.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
If the Rams could meet NE in the Super Bowl... - 4 days ago
It wouldn't mean anything to the coaches and players, but it would be sweet for me and many other older Rams fans to beat them and see a McVay/Goff "dynasty" begin.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com

And if they aren't "on" - 4 days ago
Then adjust your strategy. Listen, I would never want to coach against McVay, on the field, in Madden, or with Strat-O-Matic, but his performance today wasn't "on" and his insistence on the pass was the wrong move.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Exactly. - 4 days ago
Play the odds when you have the lead. I hope McVay can learn from wins and it doesn't have to take losses.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I really love our coach. - 4 days ago
He will bring us a boatload of Super Bowls. But his insistence on the pass meant a flip of at least 10 points today (TD after the pick and missed FG after the sack). He wasn't on today.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Situation - 4 days ago
Passing actually cost us a differential of at least 10 points. They got a TD off a pick and we missed a FG after a sack.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
That one was MUCH closer than it needed to be - 4 days ago
Ina tough game on the road keep doing what they can't stop until they stop you. Rotate Gurley and Brown until they need to change their Pro Keds. The passing game just about lost this one. I really hope McVay learns.....and changes. And as a bonus, our defense needs to shut it down on 3rd downs, or it may be one and done in the playoffs again.by NewMexicoRam - RamsFootballFans.com
