More nonesense for uninformed writers...
first off weinke wasn't "hired to be their new quarterbacks coach" he was the qb coach last year. This error makes the rest of the article suspect to me. Nevertheless, they did retain boras and hire groh. But what are all these "voices". Are the rams the only team with a qb coach and an oc? Isnt that the same exact situation as EVERY OTHER TEAM? if we didnt have a qb coach..im sure it would be pointed out that goff didnt have a dedicated qb coach. but whatever...
Now while not all teams of a passing coordinator its hardly a new position. so if you want to add a voice, its really a single voice. But how does the writer know that goff has more than one voice in his ear? he doesnt provide any evidence to support the claim. Ive heard it a few times now, but there doesnt appear to be any real evidecen tot he fact. Moreover the writer didnt even know that weinke is in his second year, but he knows wht goes on behind closed doors? i suspect he doesnt KNOW anything about the "coaching cocktail", but is simply guessing to as to why goff is not starting and despite actually WINNING the rams continue to struggle on offense. Is he right? i guess its a possibility..but its just as possible that the reasons have nothing to do with the coaching environment. but lets not let logic get in the way...its on the internet so obviously its true.

Quote: "This offseason, the Rams hired Mike Groh and gave him the title of passing game coordinator. They retained their offensive coordinator, Rob Boras. They also hired Chris Weinke as their new quarterbacks coach. The result of that coaching cocktail is not only a lot of voices in the room and in Goff's head but also a complicated mixture of an offense that's trying to blend what the Rams were doing under Fisher with some of the principles Groh learned while working under Adam Gase in Chicago the past couple of years."
Too many cooks spoiling the broth?
It seems to me that the worst of all possible offensive worlds is one where you're own players struggle with the scheme, but the defenses can read it just fine. I think I'm not the first one to say that, but I can't remember who did.
Why are we blending? Because what we were doing before was so dynamic and awesome that we just can't leave it behind?
That was priceless, Sag!
Three gems in that one.
Yeah, to read that we have an overly complicated O while struggling with one of the lowest rated O's in the league (again)?
Meanwhile, having a #1 overall QB coming from an air raid college O whose head is spinning? WTF?
Boggles the mind.
