Speed at wideout who can perform in that X role is a need. LT of the future is a need. But the holes on defense are far worse. I don't want to have a team that is all offense. I want a balanced team. I want a team that will beat you with either side of the ball. Offense is pretty good, the problem in this game was they needed to be almost perfect to win. And they came close.

Lions went full caveman tonight. I doubt their staff preached hurting the other team but they were throwing their bodies around with complete abandon and hitting to put guys on the sideline. It's unfortunate and I'm going to enjoy them being eliminated.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com

That was a nasty hit.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
We know he wasn't the same guy when he returned. So maybe he played through some pain or for whatever reason his body wasn't full back but he put himself out there. For myself I think he has earned that benefit of the doubt, to where I'm going to wait and see how he looks come next camp and preseason, and I expect we'll get a lot of stories saying he's busted his you know what to get back to thby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteThe_Zone I am not concerned, I don't fault him at all for wanting some structure or get traded. look at the way that organization is being run. He simply wants to keep Pierce who did a decent job. he is also not the only one singing Pierces praise, and Pierce is getting looks from other organizations as well. a Crosby addition would strike fear in opposing QBs and OC's. he is relentlby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
Crosby seems to think he should be running the team. To me there is a conflict somewhere in all that. So I'd pass on Crosby and let some other team overpay for him in trade. And I'd take a shot on another young edge to pair with Young somewhere in that first few rounds.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRockRam Let the market decide. The NFL is simply entertainment. It has no other value. I do agree with the concept that the legalized monopoly should no longer be allowed. it was pretty crazy to begin with, if you ask me. No doubt the right people were paid off.

Youngest head coach hire. Top notch win percentage. Super Bowl victory. And he's got a lot of years ahead to build on that. He will be enshrined the first ballot he is eligible for. Take a moment to smell the flowers with this guy in charge. :thumbsupby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
Excellent. We may not have the talented roster but if they're all aligned and focused in they may do a little damage. Gonna enjoy this however it ends. :beercanby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
That's the DT in him too so it's not going to change. But just in terms of his ability to put a good rush on, he's not too bad. The guy has a nice blend of power and rush savvy to him. In this game vs Goff that contain won't be too big a deal. So it wouldn't surprise me if he has a strong outing.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
First we know Jared very well. He was traded because teams were changing it up on the back end while he was running play action and when he turned around he couldn't process quick enough to recover. Raheem will have some special home cookin' for him in this one. Second one of our problems this season was Kendrick's inconsistencies, or perhaps his limits is a better way to put it.

QuoteJamesJM I mean other than our personal preferences for when we'd like to watch... do you see a benefit for a certain time slot? No it doesn't really matter, I was just hoping for the first slot so I could get the Rams result over with and enjoy the rest of the weekend games.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
He's a really good weapon and one that moves the chains. Would have been a matchup problem for us for sure. Detroit still has plenty of those remaining too, so this helps but we're still gonna be under the gun on defense. Key will be pressures on Jared to move him off his spot. Make him move and maybe catch him in a couple misreads on big downs and we might steal this thing. It's gonna beby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
NFL is going to play this one all the way up. It is a gift-wrapped headliner for the NFC wildcard round. I was hoping for first game Saturday but should've known we'd end up here. :ROTFby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
He's just a recent addition that doesn't have the benefit of a ton of reps and coaching to ensure he's got the nuance down in McVay's offense. So for him to play like he did is impressive. That was a big game. Might have been against backups but it was still a big game. I like his energy. He seems rejuvenated too. Like a different guy from that broken shell who got tossed out of Indy.

QuoteRams43 Quotemerlin For myself as I keep saying its addition has the potential of putting this offense into rare levels. I agree we lack it and btw this is not just on offense.

Because if not then I'd say Coach Wendell deserves most of the credit. He's the guy who would be getting the axe if the unit was terrible. Also no idea if Wendell is a coach who only has aspirations to run an OL but if he is one of those then he will be worth his weight in gold.by merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteleafnose I guess the other good news is that the guys at WR will have been working with him as the "scout team" and have some repertoire. Yeah that's going to be a very interesting part of this. That question of who does he have rapport with that leads to who he looks to when he needs an outlet. Allen might be that guy. Higs will be out which means that bigger role is thereby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
1. Pay Dotson. And hopefully that is us locking him up prior to FA so we can focus on adding one other good starter to help upgrade this roster. 2. Move Jackson to RG. Jackson would probably be very good at RG. Problem is to do this we need to fill LT. Since FA is very tough to find LTs in, that leads to entering the draft with a hole on the OL which I would prefer not to do as it makes LTby merlin - RamsFootballFans.com
