Kind of a stretch. Not sure how they picked Kendricks above Durant who I think has much more upside.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Anybody notice him being the only healthy receiver left on the Rams in the SB and still dominating and winning SB MVP? Honestly this is a head scratcher. AD at #2 behind Mahomes I can live with. Both are superstars. I didn't backtrack far enough to find Stafford but he is probably too low as well.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Congratulations to all the posters in this thread. Detailed, well thought out opinions and analysis, everyone is respectful of the other's opinions. This thread made my day.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
While I realize we looked pretty questionable even the first game against the Bills, still... When your OLINE is suffering a HISTORIC number of injuries, when you are finding street free agents and throwing them in the starting lineup because you don't have enough bodies left, nothing is going to work on your offense. You don't need a great OL to have a great offense, but you do need at leaby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com

I'd love it if this were true. I'd love it if this year we finally get to see what McVay saw in his head when drafting Tutu. But its probably not going to happen.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I think from that season you could make a strong case for that. I have been rewatching quite a bit of 1999 this year and that offense just cut through defenses like a hot knife through butter. It was a thing of beauty.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com

What a great article about a fascinating person.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Talk about forgotten - how about being the 4th receiver on the GSOT? But who caught the TD pass without which we don't even go to SB34? Who did Warner turn to when it was 3rd and 7, because Ricky ALWAYS got the first down? My personal favorite, and a really nice guy who I met at training camp in Macomb, IL in 2000. Not a HOF receiver, but an underrated one who was more important to thby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
We need some forgotten players to (pleasantly) surprise us this year.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I think a lot of teams have picked up edge rushers who played next to AD, only to find that their productivity mysteriously declined when they were no longer playing next to an all-world DT who regularly commands 2-3 blockers. Fowler is a good example. My guess is they are wondering how much of his productivity was him and how much was the AD effect.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
This may have been the single finest game of the GSOT offense. At one point in the second quarter the Rams were averaging 35 yards PER PLAY. But trust me on this, once the Rams get to 49 points turn it off. The last 3 minutes of the game were unwatchable and we still won so in the end they didn't mater. 1999 Divisional Round Rams v Vikings (Rewatching old Rams games is one of the waysby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Yes and that was a great play. But in the question I mentioned that Faulk scored twice. What a great game. I'm sure I watched it live and that was just breathtaking the way they scored at will, especially in the first half. The last 3 minutes of the game were unwatchable, though. It took an hour for them to play 3 minutes of game time and there were flags on about 6 straight plays at oneby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
If you did that entirely from memory, I am seriously impressed. What a crazy group to score - tight end, backup tight end, backup OT, and then of course Bruce and Horne. The next time Ross Tucker came on as an eligible the announcers said "watch out - he's a weapon!"by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Those two are definitely correct! :)by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Okay technically 2000 I just rewatched the 1999 divisional game between the Rams and the Chris Carter / Randy Moss Vikings. It's on YouTube if you want to watch it. This was the first season of The greatest show on turf. The Rams scored 49 points in this game. Marshall faulk scored two touchdowns. On your honor, without looking anything up, who can name the other five players who scby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Just thinking about the Rams, as we tend to do in the offseason. I know the NFL is de-emphasizing the run and the value of running backs. But it seems to me that the McVay offense REQUIRES a strong run game to operate at top efficiency. Look back at when Goff was our QB. The offense was great. When Gurley was great. When did Goff and the offense really take a step back - when we lostby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
It is the offseason and that means we have nothing of substance to talk about. Today I listened to a podcast on The Athletic Football Podcast. I listened on Spotify but the Athletic podcasts are free on most platforms. It dropped on Friday Apriul 14 and was titled "Why Some Highly Drafted offensive linemen fail, with Mitchell Schwartz and Marshall Newhouse." This was just a faby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
They should call this "terrible articles about stupid ideas" season.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I say no. Everyone here thought the Browns were stupid as well. Lamar Jackson is a running QB - and no one wants to pony up guaranteed money because running QBs don't last. He is great. Now. If I were going to give a bunch of guaranteed money to a QB, it would be someone like Joe Burrow. Elite, dropback passer who can be protected with a good O-line and really could last many years aby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
I know we can't afford it, but if money were not a limiting factor, would we be in the lamar Jackson market? This guy has amazing stats and a 45-16 record. Why aren't teams falling all over themselves to sign him?by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
How do we know the Offensive line was bad? None of them were playing. Rams set a record for the number of injuries they suffered on the O-line in 2022 Cameron DaSilva March 14, 2023 7:35 am PT There were a lot of reasons the Rams failed in 2022, but perhaps the biggest was the offensive line.

Since this is fantasy anyway - why not pair seasoned veteran Donald with rookie Donald. They'd need six olinemen to triple team them both.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Man, I would love to see this stud RB play on a competitive team. Would make our offense better right NOW.by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
Kicker is very likely a big need for the Rams. Why do artlcles and posts like this always stop before listing kickers?by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
He has played well on bad teams with bad QBs in the past. He is a good player. Not sure why we could not get him the ball last year, but given the amount we already have invested in him and the cost of moving on, the only responsible move is for the coaches to figure out how to get him more involved. Honestly, Robinson be used to his potential, in combination with Kupp being Kupp, could be aby RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
This article is about underrated players who teams should lock up long term. Two former Rams pass rushers, guys that we gave up on because either they couldn't stay healthy or couldn't produce in our system, are listed. (Okoronkwo and Ebukam.) If they are both that good - (both listed in the top 10 pressure rate in NFL) - then why didn't they show it here?by RantoulRam - RamsFootballFans.com
