The Singletary hire will be huge if he can elevate the play of our LB corps, especially Tree. After all, MS had a very positive influence on a couple of other inside LB's named Ray Lewis and Patrick Willis. Would be great if he can really elevate Tree, too. But so far I have to say that the jury is out on Tree, despite Fisher's happy talk. Heck, I'm not even sure that MS is only working witby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Here's VeteranRamFan... Quick has lost his confidence. During a break he is talking to a coach and Britt on the side away from everyone else. About four reporters lurking like vultures to a kill. Quick is visibly upset, agitated. Pacing then down on a knee then back up pacing. His face is stressed. He sounds like he is either arguing or complaining.

By: Jeff Smith | 2 hours ago While the original argument in Los Angeles Rams camp was whether it would be veteran quarterback Case Keenum or rookie Jared Goff under center in Week 1, it seems that the argument may have shifted just a bit. After a poor, and then mediocre showing in his first two preseason games, it’s become pretty apparent that Keenum is indeed the team’s current starterby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemerlin If Gaines can return to health I think the secondary will be ok. Honestly I think the Gaines of two years ago is our best corner too. So it's a huge concern for me. If not, things are going to be shaky. I think Hill ends up starting opposite Tru in that event, and it won't be ideal but hopefully Hill will settle in if needed. Joyner has to be in the slot, I don't want to see hiby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemerlin These sustained drives by the opposing offenses are killing the offensive opportunities. I think Fish needs to let Williams gameplan it up a bit vs Denver so we don't make their QBs look like future Hall of Famers but more importantly get the ball back to our own QBs so they can get their reps. I hear ya there, Merlin. But on the other hand, Fisher and GW badly need to see filmby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
It's the LB group for me, I think. I'm not convinced about Ogletree at MLB just yet. Barron just missed the Chief game for reasons unknown. And none of the reserves has exactly flashed. At least not yet. CB has Gaines looking better. And a pretty deep bench in Roberson, Hill, Jordan, and Washington, among others. Deep S has one of Alexander, Bryant, or Davis. Plus a Whitner is always a FA oby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Quote73Ram QuoteznYes, Mannion is automatically the #3. That's pretty apparent. And I agree with the 2nd statement. In fact we said nearly the same thing. He wants to get more out of Goff because he is a developing high pick, and at the same time CK is probably going to start and/or be the #2. So yes. I don't know why Sean is automatically #3. Sean has out played Jared in camp and on the field.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Quoteoldschoolramfan Simple. Quick is in year 3, the rookies are just that, rookies. A 4 year vet, who already knows the playbook should not even be in the same conversation. Yet, Quick finds himself still in that roster battle. I say trade Quick.......We need to get something for him and teams will make a trade. Get some secondary help.

Quotemoklerman Never said the WR situation hasn't been addressed. But addressed and fixed are two different animals. We've seen coaching moves and player acquisitions before but it still hasn't solved the WR problem the Rams have had.

Quick should be Exhibit A for demonstrating why measurables are no substitute for being a genuine football player.

QuoteLMU93 Whether it's a "#1 WR" like a Holt or Bruce or not, "receiving threat" is the key. Receivers the defense respects and has to account for every play. Receivers that prevent defenses loading up the box vs. the run. I do think Higbee could develop into that guy. And if he does the unpredictability of the offense goes way up, regardless of play calls. I also think Hby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
