Evans blew one play...but overall he wasn't the worst O-lineman today.

October 30, 2022 04:05PM
Look at the Coaching first on both sides of the ball. The Gameplan was okay in the first half but no adjustments were made and zero solid choices in the heat of the second half the Coaches folded like a house of Cards...The coaching is not getting it done and I am sure they would be the first to admit it.

The players do not execute and the stars that the Rams do have are not getting it done...The impact of the highest paid guys is a dud this season. Donald is being taken away what are the coaches doing to get him into favorable spots? What do the coaches do to come up with some running plays that our guys can block and that work?

Ask yourselves this...Who are the Rams? What is it they do well and can lean on for wins? When you cant get any pass rush and the opposing QB hits 84% of his passes for completions and they are able to take Donald and Ramsey out of the game by simply staying away from them and hitting quick passes due to how the defense is lined up is sad.

The main reason the Rams are 3-4 right now is the pathetic O, pathetic design, pathetic change, game plans are anemic, blame the oline all you want....they have to change the personnel and find something they can do and do right..if its quick hitters so be it...They tossed a couple of slants in the first half....where did those go in the second half? Why aren't the Rams trying some other things? I don't recognize this offense anymore....this looks nothing like the O that played in 2018 and 2019 and I am talking design and play calling and how the Rams attack the other team. McVay used to be far more creative and willing to change when things weren't working. He has seemed to shrink his own playbook and it has become so much more tied to Kupp and the Rams don't use him to free up other players and options.

The Rams have hurt themselves by devaluing the RB position. When Gurley was healthy the Rams were so good but as the D caught up and got better the Rams lost Gurley and never replaced him and they now have zero running game, nobody fears the Rams running backs and that lack of running game and the focus on Kupp has really pigeonholed this team and its ability to operate on O and make teams defend them and the entire field. In the past, the Rams threw the ball all over the field and used all the weapons at their disposal, now if Kupp cant singlehandedly carry the Rams and beat the D of the other team it's a real struggle for the Rams to do much on O. Teams are crowding the Rams and the Rams have no answer...They have nobody who can break a run more than ten yards and McVay's flat-out refusal to throw the ball deep or use Atwell's speed, I just don't understand why he doesn't find a way to get his high pick some plays and chances on the field, you can't teach or coach speed and Atwell has speed....I understand you can't have 8 WRs up for games but the Rams are a slow team on O right now, speed is needed....the Coach has got to play that kid, why draft him if you aren't going to play him, I get that he is repetitive to Powell but they need his wheels...they are desperate for someone that can take the top off...No running game...No deep threat...No ability to move the ball.

The D is good enough outside of the second half today and the Safties are so disappointing overall, both Rapp and Scott should be heading to the bench after today. If Fuller is ready please get him back out there, can Burgess get a chance to play please? What is with the Rapp love and Scott has been awful this season both in coverage and with his tackling. Change is needed, if players are blowing it, then try someone else...don't keep running guys out there who make mistakes and repetitive mistakes and missed tackles like we see over and over again right now.

The D hasn't been the problem but they were a huge part of the problem today. The time has come to find a way to get Ramsey more involved, he seems nonexistent at times...He is an uber-talented slot cb...The Rams are the only team I can remember with a talent like him that gets moved in the nickel role and left there....At least move him around and get him involved, blitz him, line him up outside lock him onto players here and there...just use his immense talent by moving him around and making the O account for him. Don't leave him in the slot all game long...what a waste of a once in a lifetime and talented a slot cb...Move him and use him he is a one of a kind talent being wasted in the slot. Get out of the same D and coverage look...they are almost too predictable at this point...you can sit watching the game and call what the Rams are doing and what the other team will do to attack them...and if we can see it at home....what do real coaches and players who break down game tape and look for all the give away that a team gives them....The Rams are their own worst enemy right now...they line up the same with guys giving the same look all the time...there are no blitzes and certainly no new ones designed to attack the other teams weakness...when was the last stunt or twist you saw the Rams run that got home of confused the oline? Where is the scheme to get Donald free or at least in a matchup he is favored to win, where is the coverage behind this pass rush that allows them to get home upfront? It not there...and neither are the Rams coaches right now..

The scheme and the game plans are letting the team down, I just dont think the Rams plans are on par with what they are running into when they play..gone are the days of teams looking confused when playing the Rams...its almost like they know exactly what is coming...the results kind of look that way.
