So, let me get this straight...
Case Keenum (a journeyman we've already cut) is our starting QB. Sean Mannion (a 3rd round pick from a year ago) is our backup. We're returning the same starting offensive line and WR corps (save for a 2nd tier WR from the draft who's injured) from last year and Todd Gurley is STILL the team's only real source of offensive production.
Basically, we're in virtually the exact same position offensively (that's 31st, btw.) as we finished in 2015.
Well... except for two MAJOR differences...
We've got a shiny new 3rd string quarterback and NO worthwhile draft collateral until 2018.
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Lol. That's way too negative. It's even spun negative. (They put a younger Keenum on the practice squad, they didn't just flat cut him as you put it). Keenum is the best #2 qb the Rams have had in years and years, and he has some strengths you're apparently discounting. I then like how your dismissal of Mannion is that he's a 3rd round pick. There's no punchline, you don't say anything. Unless you're trying to count him being a 3rd rounder as negative. I don't think of that at all, I think of how he played this summer---which was way in advance of where he was last year. Most times one counts returning the same OL as a strength, especially if it's a good one (and it was by the end of the year). Yes the WRs are better than last year since last year they all regressed (drops went up for everyone) and they added guys who they can use. The running game is not just Gurley, and either way, last year Gurley was a rookie who didn't participate in camp and was one year off of a knee surgery, and when it comes to knees guys are not full strength until the year after that.
So, for breakfast, you say you had the mutilated remains of a dead baby chicken. I say I had scrambled eggs.
