Re: This years team has a different feel

During the 1999 season, I was 100% confident the Rams would make it and win the Super Bowl. It only took me 3-4 games to realize it.

I believe the 2017 Rams team is good enough to get to the Super Bowl, but I don't have 100% confidence. They are SPECIAL IMO though. We have the best Special Teams in the NFL, the most dominant RB right now(IMO), the best DL(Donald) and probably the most depth at WR. The OL is playing top 10, the LB's and secondary are above average as well as the QB. To me, the telling tale is whether Goff can elevate during the playoffs.

I had 100% confidence in Kurt Warner 4 games into the '99 season. I believed he was a special QB.

I have about 80% confidence in Jared Goff. He has facilitated well, but I believe the system has benefited him. He has done a 180 since last season, but I'm not sure if he's Philip Rivers or Tom Brady. Just being honest here, it's not a knock on him. I think he's played well enough to get into the Pro Bowl. I'm just not sure he's quite ready yet to lead us to the promised land.
