Who is McVay? How many games has he won as a HC? Sounds unproven to me. Oh right, he talks good.
Why should anyone expect Goff to improve? Most everything and everyone he's learned from under the previous system is gone. Perhaps he gets confused?
Didn't Gurley underperform last year? Maybe that is his new norm?
Isn't the new line patchworked and untested somewhat?
Ditto for the WRs. Some good or new guys replacing some good/mediocre guys.
Me, I see a bad moon arisin. I have no reason whatsoever to be confident of success. Hopeful, yes, confident, hell no. This is after all, the Rams. Wouldn't it be fair to say that "Rams" translated mean lousy football team? Ever since the loss of Carroll Rosenbloom the Rams have been mediocre, with few exceptions, (thank you Mr. Warner). Kinda like the Detroit Lions.
It's hard to be the devil's advocate when I'm talking about a team I've been dedicated to since I was 13, (where Coy comes from), but so many sucky seasons drains the hope out of a person.
