....with the knowledge that the Rams O probably isn't going to be able to run out the clock at the end of games, with a lead, wouldn't it be worthwhile to at least attempt to confuse the opponents offense by mixing up coverages, and at least try to slow them down and burn more time?

I'm not a defensive strategist by any means, but mixing things up does seem to be a strategy that's legitimate.

I think you might be wasting your breath NMR. If I had a dime for every time I asked that same thing, I could retire...twice over. lol

Great coaches make team by team and in game adjustments. We aren't seeing any of that. We play scared. Afraid to get beat. So we keep it all in front of us...EVERY play! lol

Why? IMO, because our DC just isn't good enough to or creative enough to come up with anything different to cover up the flaws of the talent he currently has on his unit.

Yes, I know all about the injuries but Morris also had 3 HOF'ers on that unit and still has 2 left and this is the best he can come up with?

Don't know what to call? Call a "Prevent" defense. It's the safest thing to do when you have no other ideas.

As for Morris and the Super Bowl trophy...he should thank McVay and those HOF'ers EVERY day of his life because without them he isn't even getting close enough to sniff the Lombardi.

There is a reason he is the only coach under the McVay Tree to not be poached. He's the "piece of fruit" that looks good on the branch but nobody wants to eat!

What are the odds he gets "poached" this year???

#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
